BRAIN: Most Wonderful Thing
Do you guys know?
Why when we are in accident, everything seems to be in slow motion?
- It's because at that time, part of brain gets activitated which is basically the second memory system of us and it forces all the parts of the brain to leave other tasks and focus on "life saving" of us.

As normally, our brain works in energy effecient manner so it leaves out most of the finest details!
