This TED Talk Features Real-Life Mind Control That Anyone Can Do

Using your brain to control someone else’s body might seem like a villainous plot out of science fiction at first, but when you think that muscle control is all about electronic impulses sent form the brain, the reality of such a feat becomes much more feasible.

Greg Gage is on a mission to make brain science accessible to all. In this fun, kind of creepy demo, the neuroscientist and TED Senior Fellow uses a simple, inexpensive DIY kit to take away the free will of an audience member. It’s not a parlor trick; it actually works. You have to see it to believe it.
