You can’t tickle yourself either. It feels different when you know in advance what’s going to happen.

There was an experiment where they found that you can tickle yourself if the stimulus is delayed by more than a tenth of a second (I think) before you feel it. At that point, your brain doesn’t correlate the two signals and it’s like someone else is tickling you.
