How are humans able to “sense” we are being watched?
In: Biology
We don’t always notice if we sense something in reality, we may have felt, smelled, heard, or seen something. Imagine you’re walking next to a bush, and it moves, pushed by the wind—your brain will simply ignore it. But if there is no wind and it moves, your brain will alert you that something unusual has happened. Your brain constantly ignores hundreds of things as long as they seem ‘normal,’ but when something happens that ‘shouldn’t,’ it’s your brain signaling that something is wrong. This makes you more alert, encouraging you to search for possible danger.
