Everytime I watch something educational like this, I get amazed by how incredibly well designed and intricate our bodies have become through millions of years.
@@cursedfetus8129 depends where you put the start point right, if you want you could put the start of our evolution at the beginning of the universe since thats when all the material we’re made of came into being or expanded or whatever then we’d have been evolving for 14 billion years or something right?

@@darkscienceyt question. Is the released dosage always 500 ng or can it fluctuate? I believe caffeine/other stimulants induce an andrenal response, but when I compare taking caffeine to actually getting scared, you can notice a very distinct difference in how you feel and how you could perform physically.
As someone with a rare cardiac condition where I’m permanently tachycardic 120bpm/130bpm up to 200bpm, with the average around 150bpm, adrenaline really is basically just like blood for me. I don’t feel the effects of it when you would normally get the adrenaline pump (scared, rollercoasters etc), so things feel very boring for fun things that require adrenaline. As my heart rate is so high already, certain things that would cause others to jump up either has no effect or has a minor effect. How I describe it. Officially my normal resting heart rate is 120bpm-130bpm, that is the normal persons 50bpm-100bpm. When normal people run a marathon, their heart rate could climb 80bpm up to 180bpm. If I ran a marathon (for the record I can’t, I’m 28 and get exhausted just taking a few steps given my heart is running a marathon 24/7, even when asleep), my heart rate wouldn’t climb that much as it’s already near that point. Most people would expect that if a normal persons heart rate would jump 80bpm, that mine would as well, even though it’s so high. So in a good way my heart does tend to max out at around 200bpm, sometimes 250bpm. But if it’s above 200bpm for longer than 15/30 mins, severe chest pain and so on kicks in and my GTN doesn’t work, it’s a trip to hospital for trops. But I live with the symptoms of a heart attack such as crushing central chest pain, clamminess, breathlessness, fever, nausea/vomiting every few days but unlike everyone else, I don’t do anything about it as there isn’t anything that can be done. The hospitals have exhausted all medications and treatments.
i know this is a very personal question so i understand if you don’t want to answer it but whats your life expectancy because this sounds extremely stressful for the heart and body,
I am a 1.65 m male motorcyclist. Once I fell off the motorcycle and I remember that I managed to lift 200 kg of steel off me, as if it were nothing. Now, if I tried the same thing, not being in a state of fight or flight mode, I wouldn't be able to.
I’ve heard about how our brain only lets us use 50-60% of our peak strength to prevent injuries like torn ligaments etc. Adrenaline definitely temporarily overrides this and lets you use the full 90%+ we’re capable of.
Ikr, when i was in school i fight 4 dudes myself, i didnt feel any pain until i back home, the pain is umbelievable i dont think i can walk home in that state of pain without adrenaline
In elementary school, I remember being the last place of all of my classmates during jogging/running during gym. I was ridiculed for being slow and clumsy constantly. There was one time I felt I was gonna be humiliated again and as I run, I suddenly stopped feeling exhausted and I finally passed about 3 or 4 kids. I couldn’t stop running and I felt I was more alive and dominating the people from behind. It was probably the first time I impressed my gym teacher and I was indeed praised.
It's funny because I was always the opposite. I used to race my friends on longboards while I was on foot and I'd keep up with them on freshly paved roads. 😂
I searched this up. I would never have but two days ago I was in a multi vehicle accident. I was trying to get coffee for my film crew and was stopped at a red light waiting for the advance so I can make a left turn. My production manager was with me to assist in carrying. I turned to her for a few seconds to confirm the location we were heading to (6 minutes away) when I heard a tire screech. I turned back to the road only to see a car on a collision course toward us - inches away. They hit us head on and after the airbags went off I shut the car down and my PM and I got out of my vehicle; still processing and screaming. I was enraged with the people that hit us because they admitted this wasn't their first accident like it was nothing. But I managed to restrain myself from going at them. I just let myself cry and go into a panic attack. I focused on myself and my PM. They blamed black ice when the roads were near to completely dry, and although I'm so thankful I'm alive, no brain injuries, no broken bone, with only bruises and pain, I'm brokenhearted I lost my car. Not only did I work my ass off for it, I put work into that car. I put heart and soul into it. I'm a car enthusiast so it pained me to see my car in the state it was in. Reviewing the dash cam it revealed the driver was on her phone. I got angrier after that because I could have lost my life to her negligence. Anyways, three hours after the accident the adrenaline I was on which was on full max started wearing off and the dizziness, the head pounding and my body started aching. I was so fatigued and going through many emotions all at once. I think I wouldn't have screamed after getting hit. I feel I'd be quiet but crying and in a panic attack as I have anxiety disorder so it would only make sense. The reason I know why I started screaming was because I was a producer for a film and prep production was stressful, production was stressful, I was very tired and powered with caffeine and power naps. The accident was like the last straw for me. I kept my composure all these weeks and all I wanted to do was get my crew some refreshments and the idiot of a woman on her phone turns right, no slowing down, no blinkers, and head on into my lane at about 50 to 60km per hour. After the airbags deployed, all I heard was buzzing and ringing in my ears. And then I screamed out everything that was inside of me. Yes I also credit some of it to the accident too, but oh my goodness the crash forcibly made me drop my composure and feel vulnerable. But after the incident, aside from all the pain and trauma I was and continue to go through, my curiosity and fascination of how adrenaline works grew rapidly. I didn't feel any pain except the numbness on my face and especially my lips from the airbags which lasted 30 s3conds to a minute. But for three hours I didn't feel any pain. It's astonishing how the body works. And thats why I'm here. To understand what the hell was going on when I got hit and was on the highest level of adrenaline I've ever been on.
Absolutely fascinating. I have been getting CBT therapy relating to PTSD and this is something that was covered simply in that, I wanted a slightly more indepth understanding of it and this has been so helpful. I love that with CBT we learn to understand our mind and have more control over our mind and behaviour.
This helps me understand how my psychiatrist figured out I've been experiencing an anxiety attack and wasn't actually physically sick. I had a fever, really bad headaches, my mouth and throat were dry, even my eyes were, i felt really hot but also had chills and i was shaking uncontrollably. I went to the hospital and two of the doctors that saw me told me to go see my psychiatrist, when i did he told me that i had been experiencing a really long and horrible anxious attack. I didn't know anxiety attacks could actually make you physically ill if they got too bad. He's given me antidepressants which have helped immensely, it's my second day of taking them and the only thing i have is im still shaking a lot everywhere, have huge dilated pupils, and my saliva is sticky. Dude, i thought i was dying when i first got the symptoms lmao I still dont really know what has caused these long, really bad, and lasting, anxiety attacks. But we'll figure it out, for now i just need to rest. Very informative video!
@WORLDCREATIONGAMING Yeah! My psychiatrist has slowly lowered my dose lately this year, that attack was around last year. I'm better now (haven't had an anxiety attack since then), thanks for asking
As someone who takes a beta blocker for panic disorder, this made me smile. So many effects I used to experience from adrenaline which I don't anymore.
@@jejcnsjdndjskdjrn8329 If a doctor has refused it you, that's criminal unless there's a damn good reason for it. I'm on Propranolol which is the most common for anxiety/panic: is super cheap (generics), super safe (very few contraindications, such as asthma) and completely non-addictive. I still have panic attacks but they are almost completely mental, my heart doesn't feel like it's gonna beat out of my chest, my hands are only warm instead of being so sweaty I couldn't even use my phone, etc. I also feel much happier in the knowledge the strain on my heart from panic attacks is greatly reduced.
I got adrenaline from sprinting to keep up with my dad on a walk to chip shop after doing up my shoe lace, for the first time in 5 years, I felt alive again, it hits hard, sprinting comes from that cave man era, escaping the beast. Now though it's just really good for our health, I got color back in my face, not pasty white, but red glow and cured my stone cold feet, sitting around. Sprinting is great way to boost adrenaline, run like your life depends on it. We were designed for movement
@@abraham7330 yeah I feel it too, but I think that’s maybe because of the situations you usually get adrenaline rush, that sinking feeling in your chest is what I think a sense of impending doom feels like.
Our human body is so amazing. Life is very complicated and mysterious. This is amazing that how every organ of our body, ever chemical, every nerve continuously works and takes action to keep us alive and safe from danger. This is the magic of evolution of life from millions of years.
Once I fell of a cliff (they caught me in time) and had an adrenaline rush. I've liked the feeling and tried to replicate it over the years but haven't been able to yet.
for your own growth it was a combo of your editing, information, the " if you percieve this vid as a threat... is it my voice?" , and alcohol that drove me to sub. dig your work.
Adrenaline also has an effect on your somatosensation. A couple weeks ago I had a dirt bike accident and ended up with a really deep wound on my leg (down to the periosteum, right above the bone), but I didn't feel ANY pain. This was really fortunate since I had to run a little bit in order to get to help, which would have been excruciating had the adrenaline not kicked in.
i really like you man. not just the content, which is top notch, you just seem like an amazing guy. makes me happy for youtube. hope to see you become a big channel. clicked on the ad link just for props
For those who don’t know, this is a adrenaline rush for example when you are having fun and you get hurt like a scratch, you don’t realize it right away hope this helps
I used to get pumped up by adrenaline, testosterone and everything else (naturally, I never used anything) just before my fights in karate. It feels cold at first, everything quiets down but you're not calm... You just dont hear anything at all, you're too focused on that one thing - the fight. Your stomach feels like butterflies (you know what I mean) and you can NOT ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT stay put. Pain is nonexistent. One opponent broke my ribs and I didnt notice it. But then after it ends.... You are absolutely wrecked. Physically destroyed, you absolutely need rest.
I've only had that feeling once and it was cuz i got jumped in rust when i was 14 😂 shit was freaking me out cuz i was so cold and jittery i felt i was able to run a fricken marathon. If only i could figure out how tf to trigger it when i workout so i could get a sick pump
I have generalized anxiety disorder and my feet getting cold are always the first sign of a panic attack. After that my hands and arms go cold. For me it’s not a couple of seconds. It can be hours sometimes depending on the severity of the panic attack.
@@nolesy34 No it's quite easy to fake out the brain, we've been doing it for hundreds of years. they're called paintings, and more recently about a hundren years ago we got video and then only 30 years ago first person shooter video games
I remember one day when we were kids and we were smoking a joint in my friend's backyard, I turned to my friend and said "that's your mum at the kitchen window" we chucked our joint away and his mum came in the garden and asked us what we were doing, to which we replied nothing, anyways she spotted my wee tin of hash and saved "what's in the tin, my adrenaline kicked in with the fight or flight mode and I just said as bold as brass "nothing" and simply walked off.
Oh how i woe at the constant reminder that life imitates life, and I am always in awe by it. Adrenaline is the body's messengers to call for arms to fight for the absolute [ur life] similar to the messengers that would run out to warn the king and his men that a war is coming to their land. Adrenaline is amazing.
Adrenaline is awesome. When I play basketball, I play with music. As I get more revved up and heart pumping the more I play, I can literally feel music Im listening to playing at a slower pace. Once in a football game, I cut my middle finger on my right hand. I taped it up and went back out to the field. On one play, as I fighting my opponent trying to block him. We were hand fighting, middle of a football game. My adrenaline was pumping so hard, the tape on my finger flew off in the middle of the play and I just saw it disappear from view as I was engaged in a physical battle. Crazy how adrenaline really can make you feel like time is slowed down due to increased perception of everything around you. Adrenaline is so powerful it can surprise you at times.
In the Navy we had many training evolutions that felt very very real, I remember the adrenaline rush from them, it was sort of like a surging throughout your entire body and a feeling of positivity and confidence.
I had an allergic reaction and was injected with epinephrine (adrenaline). It wasn't like the movies portray it 🥲. Just felt like I had caffeine jitters and my hands were shaking. Rollercoasters give me more of a rush!
Humans, and to an extent, proto-humans, evolved to run long distances to essentially run down our meat-prey. So while adrenaline does help us to escape predators; it also gives us an evolutionary advantage to make that sprint and lunge to our next big meal for our people. If you've ever been a competitive racer & kicked into overdrive for that last 5% of the race - that finish line is your meal & god damn does it feel good.
I got in a very bad car crash yesterday with my friend. Immediately after the collision i felt an adrenaline rush so bad that my whole entire body went numb! Now I'm lying in my bed waiting to go to the doctor to get my right knee and shoulder checked.
@@kg-Whatthehelliseventhat I'm really sore now and I found out that I have a torn MCL. I've been icing my knee a ton so the swelling has mostly gone away.
@@kg-Whatthehelliseventhat Thank you for your kind words and thoughts! The swelling in my knee is slowly going away and I've gained a bit more flexibility. Tomorrow I have a flight from Salt Lake City to Raleigh so hopefully I have good enough health to travel.🤞
@@kg-Whatthehelliseventhat I'm actually staying at my grandparents house for the summer! I have a ton of family that I don't know so I decided to save up a little and fly out to North Carolina. My doctor told me that I'll need to wear a knee brace for about two months. Luckily I'll probably only need crutches for another two weeks or so. But no surgery!
It's all well and good until you experience it your entire life, develop Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and then develop Chronic Fatigue from the years of constant adrenaline. Thank you for mentioning PTSD though - I feel very seen in a sea of people often praising adrenaline when it feels like all its done is slowly ruin my body. I'm 22 and I am so, so tired.
Same here.I suffer from ptsd and I have spent years using that constant adrenaline boost as a strength in managing emergency situations and in my job which requires a strong concentration and and unexpected events with a short laps of response.But I am now extremely tired,my muscles suffer from multiple tendinitis and brain won’t stop even at night 🥲
Time slows down when I notice a bee on my shoulder... That was my highest adrenaline rush since I was born. Most of my daily Adrenaline rush is just a higher heart rate and reaction. It's been so long since that last "time machine" experience came.
Okay I watch a lot of scientific and Informational videos and I am VERY impressed with the way you have organized and communicated this explanation. This is talent- the way a video is laid out and something is explained is KEY to getting the listeners to understand. The humor included releases chemicals as you already know to keep me interested and reinforce the learning process THANK YOU. Gained a subscriber 🤌🏼
I was laying in bed, taking a nap before work. I keep some hats of mine on the bed post, cause it's convenient. Well, they just so happened to be in such a way that, when my grogy mind woke up and I saw them and the post backlit by my bedside lamp, my brain thought it was a person standing there, leaning over my bed. In all of a second or two, I recoiled, cocked my arm back, and got ready to blast this thing in the face, thankfully I realized what it was. But I could feel that prickly, juiced-up feeling radiating from the muscles in my back near my right arm, and my brain went from about 12% conscious operating status, to 150% overdrive in a split secind. And that's actually why Im here.
@@darkscienceyt of course! Could you please do a video on either human growth hormone, how the eyes work, or can you please make a video about neurons and how they work? (I have a couple theories on increasing the firing rate of neurons or adding specific chemicals, like adrenaline or human growth hormone, to the brain to boost it in a way. If you have any suggestions or advice, I am completely welcome to hearing it and would encourage you to tell me if you do! :D)
When I was a kid my parents had frequent, angry shouting matches. I quickly came to HATE the adrenaline rush. Now if I'm around any sort of drama, I really have to focus to control the adrenaline response. My heart pounds and it's easy to lose my breath but I can now hold my composure without needing to flee it. I understand now why it happens so dramatically to me so I recognize it for what it is.
Once had a dog chase me, turns out the owners had an invisible fence but the dog came out the front door running and I have never ran so fast in my life. I cleared a fence like a damn track star lol.
I'm a karate practicioner, and before any fight my system would get absolutely flooded with adrenaline. I never liked the feeling but I can understand people who do
I had a motorbike accident. I had the impression that i have all the time to take the best decission. Im alive, it worked. But now the panik attack are the bad side of this
„Is it my Voice?“ 🤣 I had an adrenaline rush when the car almost didnt see me and I nearly crashed into it (motorcycle). Heart starts poinding super fast and thinking stops working for a few seconds.
God,i miss that adrenaline rush feeling.As a teenager i used to do a lot of crap,one of the things was running away from the cops after someone would call them on us for throwing stuff at bypassing cars but now that i think about it, that was probably dangerous and could have killed someone,maybe a driver having an open window and the rocks we threw could have hit him but nevertheless the feeling was amazing after they would chase after us or call the cops on us.As i already disclosed myself with the comment already, here's another short story that gave me an adrenaline rush that i only experienced once and never again.As usual we would throw rocks at bypassing cars at night and one of the cars stopped and the guy chased us with a freaking gun,we ran to a rundown house to hide,dude chased after us and stopped at the window on the rundown house where 3 of us were crouching underneath from the other side,we could hear him heavy breathe,that vapor thing coming out of his mouth as it was a cold winter night,curse and all sorts of stuff,he was just few inches away from finding us,my heart was beating so hard that i thought it would jump out of my chest.I know that there are other stuff to experience adrenaline rush and that are much more harmless but as a teenager you are kinda stupid and do all sorts of stupid stuff
I experienced my one and only andrelin rush 2 years ago when I had a bike accident on the road. Time felt so slow as I was rolling on the road . I had some serious bruises on my hips head leg and elbow but I didn't feel any pain or weakness and I stood back up on my own like nothing happened Soon after that when the effects of andrelin disappeared I felt so much pain and dizziness I still remember every moment of that accident. Coincidentally it was my 17th birthday that day 😅
So is it possible to play a horror game to scare the shit out of myself, then immediately start studying for my exam to get me a PTSD about those thing in the syllabus. After that I could rememeber all of them?
i have PCKD (polycystical kidney disease), when i run for even a minute, it feels like my kidney gets stabbed, and it hurts with every move after that for like 5 minutes, its a very sharp and intense pain, however, i remember once i was chasing after someone for a solid 10 minutes, i realised i was way faster and i felt no pain in my kidneys which was very surprising, adrenaline is basically kioken
A little late on this but this 500 nanograms of adrenaline is indeed less than 0.5 mg infant it is a thousand times smaller than 0.5 mg. Awfully weird comparison because the video makes it seem like they are about the same. 500 nano is 0.5 micro, not milli. :) Comments talking about 500 mg of this stuff would likely be a fatal reaction. That’s 1,000,000 times more potent
Another thing that’s crazy about adrenaline rushes/the fight in fight or flight is how your body just moves before your brain registers it. I had a situation where a loose pitbull attacked a lady and her dog in the parking lot at my work. As soon as it actually started happening before I could even register it the next thing I knew I was sliding into the planter boxes 30 feet away and wrapping my arms around the pitbull and yanking it off, with my face about 6 inches away from its face. It was like I had blacked out and had no control of what was going on. I could have gotten hit by a car rushing across the street or my face chomped on by the dog but I just didn’t have any control over my body, it just moved on its own to try to save this lady and her dog. Sort of related, but that day really reinforced just how useless people really are. There was at least 6 other people in that parking lot at the time all relatively near her and not a single person even inched forward or yelled. And while I was sitting there holding the dog back from attacking any further, all the people who witnessed the attack and me running and diving on the dog just looked at me and the situation and continued on into the store. Not a single person stopped to ask if the lady or I were okay and every single one of them witnessed it. People genuinely suck. There’s more to the story that makes people look even worse but I won’t get into that cuz it’ll just piss me off more.
Maybe it was adrenaline that saved my life once. Back when I was in 8th grade, it was the break, I was sitting at the desk in class and hanging out with my boys. Suddenly, a boy that I had a conflict before walked in and tried to stab me with a knife from above, on my head. At that very moment, I managed to grab his knife hand while still sitting and slammed on the table, thus the knife broke out. Then we all hit him so hard that he had to crawl, his classmates were outside and throwing rocks at us, we evaded and threw back. Hell of a mess. Anw, I thought that was adrenaline activated that saved my life.
For the longest time I thought you just stopped uploading. I never got notifications ,nor, saw any new video in my recommended. It's very annoying when that happens, but nice watch another video again
At 4:18 you are telling that peripheral circulation in arms and legs, i.e., blood vessels will constrict, but during fight or flight response arms and legs are important for quick response right?

I didn't feel any pain except the numbness on my face and especially my lips from the airbags which lasted 30 s3conds to a minute. But for three hours I didn't feel any pain. It's astonishing how the body works. And thats why I'm here. To understand what the hell was going on when I got hit and was on the highest level of adrenaline I've ever been on.
Our instincts turned us from apex predators into anxiety monkeys.
No
@@littledudefromacrossthestr5755fr
It's not our instincts, it's...things that are more complicated than any bit of our instincts.
Absolutely fascinating. I have been getting CBT therapy relating to PTSD and this is something that was covered simply in that, I wanted a slightly more indepth understanding of it and this has been so helpful. I love that with CBT we learn to understand our mind and have more control over our mind and behaviour.
This helps me understand how my psychiatrist figured out I've been experiencing an anxiety attack and wasn't actually physically sick.
I had a fever, really bad headaches, my mouth and throat were dry, even my eyes were, i felt really hot but also had chills and i was shaking uncontrollably.
I went to the hospital and two of the doctors that saw me told me to go see my psychiatrist, when i did he told me that i had been experiencing a really long and horrible anxious attack.
I didn't know anxiety attacks could actually make you physically ill if they got too bad.
He's given me antidepressants which have helped immensely, it's my second day of taking them and the only thing i have is im still shaking a lot everywhere, have huge dilated pupils, and my saliva is sticky. Dude, i thought i was dying when i first got the symptoms lmao
I still dont really know what has caused these long, really bad, and lasting, anxiety attacks. But we'll figure it out, for now i just need to rest.
Very informative video!
Yea anxiety wears you down so much and has such weird symptoms. I’ve had my whole body go numb and tingly
R u fine now?
@WORLDCREATIONGAMING Yeah! My psychiatrist has slowly lowered my dose lately this year, that attack was around last year. I'm better now (haven't had an anxiety attack since then), thanks for asking
As someone who takes a beta blocker for panic disorder, this made me smile. So many effects I used to experience from adrenaline which I don't anymore.
Wish I could get perscribed that, I’m so tired of being tense 24/7
@@jejcnsjdndjskdjrn8329 If a doctor has refused it you, that's criminal unless there's a damn good reason for it. I'm on Propranolol which is the most common for anxiety/panic: is super cheap (generics), super safe (very few contraindications, such as asthma) and completely non-addictive. I still have panic attacks but they are almost completely mental, my heart doesn't feel like it's gonna beat out of my chest, my hands are only warm instead of being so sweaty I couldn't even use my phone, etc. I also feel much happier in the knowledge the strain on my heart from panic attacks is greatly reduced.
I got adrenaline from sprinting to keep up with my dad on a walk to chip shop after doing up my shoe lace, for the first time in 5 years, I felt alive again, it hits hard, sprinting comes from that cave man era, escaping the beast. Now though it's just really good for our health, I got color back in my face, not pasty white, but red glow and cured my stone cold feet, sitting around. Sprinting is great way to boost adrenaline, run like your life depends on it. We were designed for movement
Do you feel adrenaline in you’re chest to? When I do things that cause adrenaline I get a weird feeling in my chest
@@abraham7330 yeah I feel it too, but I think that’s maybe because of the situations you usually get adrenaline rush, that sinking feeling in your chest is what I think a sense of impending doom feels like.
I never paid attention to stuff like this until I started having re-occurring panic attacks a year and a half ago. . . fun stuff!
Our human body is so amazing.
Life is very complicated and mysterious.
This is amazing that how every organ of our body, ever chemical, every nerve continuously works and takes action to keep us alive and safe from danger.
This is the magic of evolution of life from millions of years.

for your own growth it was a combo of your editing, information, the " if you percieve this vid as a threat... is it my voice?" , and alcohol that drove me to sub. dig your work.
Adrenaline also has an effect on your somatosensation. A couple weeks ago I had a dirt bike accident and ended up with a really deep wound on my leg (down to the periosteum, right above the bone), but I didn't feel ANY pain. This was really fortunate since I had to run a little bit in order to get to help, which would have been excruciating had the adrenaline not kicked in.
Im not sure but I think that has more with endorfins to do.

For those who don’t know, this is a adrenaline rush for example when you are having fun and you get hurt like a scratch, you don’t realize it right away hope this helps
The adrenaline rush feeling, in my opinion, feels like your body gets so cold for a couple of seconds and im shaking.
Exactly
Yea or like a weird feeling in you’re chest
I used to get pumped up by adrenaline, testosterone and everything else (naturally, I never used anything) just before my fights in karate. It feels cold at first, everything quiets down but you're not calm... You just dont hear anything at all, you're too focused on that one thing - the fight. Your stomach feels like butterflies (you know what I mean) and you can NOT ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT stay put. Pain is nonexistent. One opponent broke my ribs and I didnt notice it. But then after it ends.... You are absolutely wrecked. Physically destroyed, you absolutely need rest.
I've only had that feeling once and it was cuz i got jumped in rust when i was 14 😂 shit was freaking me out cuz i was so cold and jittery i felt i was able to run a fricken marathon. If only i could figure out how tf to trigger it when i workout so i could get a sick pump
I have generalized anxiety disorder and my feet getting cold are always the first sign of a panic attack. After that my hands and arms go cold. For me it’s not a couple of seconds. It can be hours sometimes depending on the severity of the panic attack.
I once got an adrenaline rush while playing cs go it felt like time was slowing down and I was moving so fast felt amazing 😅
Yes even a fake visual can give you the feeling, thats quite a compliment to video game developers
@@nolesy34 No it's quite easy to fake out the brain, we've been doing it for hundreds of years. they're called paintings, and more recently about a hundren years ago we got video and then only 30 years ago first person shooter video games
When playing csgo I also reflexed so hard when I suddenly spotted an enemy that I have cramped my leg.
I remember getting adreanaline rush while playing a horror game. I had to kill a ghost and I had very limited ammo.
I often get adrenaline rushes when playing cs lol
Your channel is the best science channel I've subscribed to. Way better than the institute of human anatomy because you get straight to the point.
The abrupt silence at the end with the credits 😂
Man, was re watching this video at around midnight and had to check out a weird noise I heard downstairs. It was quite the adrenaline rush ironically.
I remember one day when we were kids and we were smoking a joint in my friend's backyard, I turned to my friend and said "that's your mum at the kitchen window" we chucked our joint away and his mum came in the garden and asked us what we were doing, to which we replied nothing, anyways she spotted my wee tin of hash and saved "what's in the tin, my adrenaline kicked in with the fight or flight mode and I just said as bold as brass "nothing" and simply walked off.
"Hey there is a bear coming. you better run"
Bear: "HAHAHAHAHAHA! Good one!"
Dude, your channel is so underated!!!! great stuff!

Nice video! Really learn a ton, from you.
Awesome, thank you!
Oh how i woe at the constant reminder that life imitates life, and I am always in awe by it. Adrenaline is the body's messengers to call for arms to fight for the absolute [ur life] similar to the messengers that would run out to warn the king and his men that a war is coming to their land. Adrenaline is amazing.
I can watch many of your videos and not get bored in fact i get more curious
That's awesome! Thank you!
ah yes the panic attack chemical i know it well and we have a love hate relationship
Adrenaline is awesome. When I play basketball, I play with music. As I get more revved up and heart pumping the more I play, I can literally feel music Im listening to playing at a slower pace.
Once in a football game, I cut my middle finger on my right hand. I taped it up and went back out to the field. On one play, as I fighting my opponent trying to block him. We were hand fighting, middle of a football game. My adrenaline was pumping so hard, the tape on my finger flew off in the middle of the play and I just saw it disappear from view as I was engaged in a physical battle.
Crazy how adrenaline really can make you feel like time is slowed down due to increased perception of everything around you. Adrenaline is so powerful it can surprise you at times.
Amazing work, keep it up!!
In the Navy we had many training evolutions that felt very very real, I remember the adrenaline rush from them, it was sort of like a surging throughout your entire body and a feeling of positivity and confidence.
What was the study (7:48), can you provide citation, please? Thanks
I had an allergic reaction and was injected with epinephrine (adrenaline). It wasn't like the movies portray it 🥲. Just felt like I had caffeine jitters and my hands were shaking. Rollercoasters give me more of a rush!
Thats caus u had allergy
@@miraclesofnearlyeverything4490😂
Humans, and to an extent, proto-humans, evolved to run long distances to essentially run down our meat-prey.
So while adrenaline does help us to escape predators; it also gives us an evolutionary advantage to make that sprint and lunge to our next big meal for our people.
If you've ever been a competitive racer & kicked into overdrive for that last 5% of the race - that finish line is your meal & god damn does it feel good.
Really good video, very informative.
I got in a very bad car crash yesterday with my friend. Immediately after the collision i felt an adrenaline rush so bad that my whole entire body went numb! Now I'm lying in my bed waiting to go to the doctor to get my right knee and shoulder checked.
How r u feeling today? The soreness comes out a few days after. May you have a fast recovery. 😊
@@kg-Whatthehelliseventhat I'm really sore now and I found out that I have a torn MCL. I've been icing my knee a ton so the swelling has mostly gone away.

The clip of the Queen hits so much differently now
adrenaline is literally your body overclocking
I remember getting chased by 2 dogs at night, i never felt so fast in my life during that moment
It's all well and good until you experience it your entire life, develop Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and then develop Chronic Fatigue from the years of constant adrenaline. Thank you for mentioning PTSD though - I feel very seen in a sea of people often praising adrenaline when it feels like all its done is slowly ruin my body. I'm 22 and I am so, so tired.
Same here.I suffer from ptsd and I have spent years using that constant adrenaline boost as a strength in managing emergency situations and in my job which requires a strong concentration and and unexpected events with a short laps of response.But I am now extremely tired,my muscles suffer from multiple tendinitis and brain won’t stop even at night 🥲

Time slows down when I notice a bee on my shoulder... That was my highest adrenaline rush since I was born. Most of my daily Adrenaline rush is just a higher heart rate and reaction. It's been so long since that last "time machine" experience came.

I literally had an adrenaline rush while watching this lol
I was laying in bed, taking a nap before work. I keep some hats of mine on the bed post, cause it's convenient. Well, they just so happened to be in such a way that, when my grogy mind woke up and I saw them and the post backlit by my bedside lamp, my brain thought it was a person standing there, leaning over my bed. In all of a second or two, I recoiled, cocked my arm back, and got ready to blast this thing in the face, thankfully I realized what it was. But I could feel that prickly, juiced-up feeling radiating from the muscles in my back near my right arm, and my brain went from about 12% conscious operating status, to 150% overdrive in a split secind.
And that's actually why Im here.
HELL YEAH! YOUR VIDEOS ARE PHENOMENAL!! :DDD
Thanks!
@@darkscienceyt of course! Could you please do a video on either human growth hormone, how the eyes work, or can you please make a video about neurons and how they work? (I have a couple theories on increasing the firing rate of neurons or adding specific chemicals, like adrenaline or human growth hormone, to the brain to boost it in a way. If you have any suggestions or advice, I am completely welcome to hearing it and would encourage you to tell me if you do! :D)
I have PTSD and I still can't smell certain cleaning products without my heartrate skyrocketing to 150 lol
When I was a kid my parents had frequent, angry shouting matches. I quickly came to HATE the adrenaline rush. Now if I'm around any sort of drama, I really have to focus to control the adrenaline response. My heart pounds and it's easy to lose my breath but I can now hold my composure without needing to flee it. I understand now why it happens so dramatically to me so I recognize it for what it is.
Once had a dog chase me, turns out the owners had an invisible fence but the dog came out the front door running and I have never ran so fast in my life. I cleared a fence like a damn track star lol.
In depth and educational. Thanks for the vid

I had an adrenaline rush when the car almost didnt see me and I nearly crashed into it (motorcycle). Heart starts poinding super fast and thinking stops working for a few seconds.
God,i miss that adrenaline rush feeling.As a teenager i used to do a lot of crap,one of the things was running away from the cops after someone would call them on us for throwing stuff at bypassing cars but now that i think about it, that was probably dangerous and could have killed someone,maybe a driver having an open window and the rocks we threw could have hit him but nevertheless the feeling was amazing after they would chase after us or call the cops on us.As i already disclosed myself with the comment already, here's another short story that gave me an adrenaline rush that i only experienced once and never again.As usual we would throw rocks at bypassing cars at night and one of the cars stopped and the guy chased us with a freaking gun,we ran to a rundown house to hide,dude chased after us and stopped at the window on the rundown house where 3 of us were crouching underneath from the other side,we could hear him heavy breathe,that vapor thing coming out of his mouth as it was a cold winter night,curse and all sorts of stuff,he was just few inches away from finding us,my heart was beating so hard that i thought it would jump out of my chest.I know that there are other stuff to experience adrenaline rush and that are much more harmless but as a teenager you are kinda stupid and do all sorts of stupid stuff

I experienced my one and only andrelin rush 2 years ago when I had a bike accident on the road.
Time felt so slow as I was rolling on the road . I had some serious bruises on my hips head leg and elbow but I didn't feel any pain or weakness and I stood back up on my own like nothing happened
Soon after that when the effects of andrelin disappeared I felt so much pain and dizziness
I still remember every moment of that accident. Coincidentally it was my 17th birthday that day 😅
So is it possible to play a horror game to scare the shit out of myself, then immediately start studying for my exam to get me a PTSD about those thing in the syllabus.

i have PCKD (polycystical kidney disease), when i run for even a minute, it feels like my kidney gets stabbed, and it hurts with every move after that for like 5 minutes, its a very sharp and intense pain, however, i remember once i was chasing after someone for a solid 10 minutes, i realised i was way faster and i felt no pain in my kidneys which was very surprising, adrenaline is basically kioken
A little late on this but this 500 nanograms of adrenaline is indeed less than 0.5 mg infant it is a thousand times smaller than 0.5 mg. Awfully weird comparison because the video makes it seem like they are about the same. 500 nano is 0.5 micro, not milli. :)
Comments talking about 500 mg of this stuff would likely be a fatal reaction. That’s 1,000,000 times more potent
"Unless you perceive this video as a threat..." 🤣
Another thing that’s crazy about adrenaline rushes/the fight in fight or flight is how your body just moves before your brain registers it. I had a situation where a loose pitbull attacked a lady and her dog in the parking lot at my work. As soon as it actually started happening before I could even register it the next thing I knew I was sliding into the planter boxes 30 feet away and wrapping my arms around the pitbull and yanking it off, with my face about 6 inches away from its face. It was like I had blacked out and had no control of what was going on. I could have gotten hit by a car rushing across the street or my face chomped on by the dog but I just didn’t have any control over my body, it just moved on its own to try to save this lady and her dog. Sort of related, but that day really reinforced just how useless people really are. There was at least 6 other people in that parking lot at the time all relatively near her and not a single person even inched forward or yelled. And while I was sitting there holding the dog back from attacking any further, all the people who witnessed the attack and me running and diving on the dog just looked at me and the situation and continued on into the store. Not a single person stopped to ask if the lady or I were okay and every single one of them witnessed it. People genuinely suck. There’s more to the story that makes people look even worse but I won’t get into that cuz it’ll just piss me off more.
He really just describe PTSD

Maybe it was adrenaline that saved my life once.
Back when I was in 8th grade, it was the break, I was sitting at the desk in class and hanging out with my boys. Suddenly, a boy that I had a conflict before walked in and tried to stab me with a knife from above, on my head. At that very moment, I managed to grab his knife hand while still sitting and slammed on the table, thus the knife broke out. Then we all hit him so hard that he had to crawl, his classmates were outside and throwing rocks at us, we evaded and threw back. Hell of a mess.
Anw, I thought that was adrenaline activated that saved my life.

At 4:18 you are telling that peripheral circulation in arms and legs, i.e., blood vessels will constrict, but during fight or flight response arms and legs are important for quick response right?
