The Man Who Lived Without a Brain | Consciousness Series

A man lived 44 years with virtually no brain, just fluid where the organ should be. Yet his mind, his memories, his entire identity remained intact. Cases like his challenge everything neuroscience thought it knew about consciousness.
In this video, we explore the mystery of people living everyday lives with paper-thin brains, why single-celled organisms can learn without neurons, and the radical theory suggesting your brain might be an antenna rather than the source of consciousness itself.

If the brain doesn't create your mind, but merely receives it, then where does consciousness really come from—and where does it go?
