Physical pain from watching people get hurt

726 views

Why do I get a physical feeling of what I can only describe as almost vertigo. I get a physical reaction when watching a video of someone getting hurt. Like when you watch a video of someone crashing their bike or falling off of a roof.

Not sure, but I feel this too! Whenever I see a broken limb/surgery/blood on someone else, my stomach seems to clench and give me butterflies? Would be curious on the science of this too!
