A sixth sense

[Lizardbreath]

Those of you who have been to concerts and raves can account for this so here goes my theory that humans have a sixth sense that is only displayed in crowds of people. The ability, when large groups are present, to draw energy from eachother?

Discuss.

source please.

 

[Octopor]

Meh, could be the drugs or alcohol.

 

[Lizardbreath]

source please.

No source, just a theory i made up and wanted to see if I wasn't the only one who thought of this.

 

[Sogeking]

extroversion? extroverts get energy from other people so yes? minus the 6th sense theory.

 

[Lizardbreath]

So does that make it distinct to one type of person? Or is it associated with a natural chemical reaction when you are around other people?

a group of like 6000 asians sat in a stadium and concentrated on a tree in the center...moments later it mysteriously combusted....true story

 

[Lizardbreath]

You got a link? Cuz that sounds interesting

 

[Jimbo]

So what you're basically saying, is that when people are grouped together and most likely on drugs, they're going to act a little different than say if they were flying solo at home?

Wow.

 

[Lizardbreath]

Maybe the chemicals released by these drugs make the sense of unity come out in the crowd???

i looked for a link but couldn't find it...i read it a couple years ago...but i sure did remember it

 

[Jimbo]

It's not the drugs, or a "sixth sense" It's the music bringing the people together as one.

Everyone feel's the music, it's a collective thing.

The ability to draw energy is not a sense, but there is probably a dynamic equilibrium between energy of your body to others'.*

 

[Tie]

I don't know about energy, but people are more easily influenced by a large group. This is most often scene in mobs.

 

[Tw@]

Do you even know what a sense is? or what the term "sixth sense" refers to?

 

[CelestialBadger]

I got my 25th sense back as change today from a soda machine.

 

[Lilu]

i dont reckon it's a sixth sense..
i reckon it's a mixture of good intuition and hormones.

I like to think of it as a different state of mind. People feel safer in big numbers. They get more confident and ****y and safe sense of security. Which leads to new ways of thinkin. I'ev fell out of the rave scene. my body can't physical take it anymore. But When you have some great psy trance boomin. Lights everywhere to distort you vision and ectasy. It's really a new world. You can feel beats rythem and all kinds of sensations that you ignored of noticed before. It's amazing. I'm not sayin go and eat a box of x. But the expirence is something that sticks with you as you go about your normal life. Imo anyways...
