Frankly speaking, when I watched the trailer, I was very optimistic about this film, always thinking that there will finally be a commercial film about the brain, maybe there is some suspense. . . But the facts once again prove that Hollywood trailer editing is still top-notch. . .
Fortunately, I was happy to finish watching this film, especially the final ending still gave me a room
to think. Going back to the title, "the third hypothesis", according to the theory in the photo, the brain usage rate of normal people is 20%, after taking medicine, it becomes 100%. (The industry view is 10%, but some people argue that it is 100%, because the less commonly used 90% is actually just to provide supplements or nutrition) It seems to be 5 or 10 times simple Relationship, is that a simple reaction 5 to 10 times faster? Let us make a few bold assumptions. The
first assumption is that the long-term evolution of humans makes all the neurons needed for thinking, memory, and behavioral responses at most 10% (about 15 billion neurons in the brain), which is 15 100 million neurons. The industry claims that every thought requires several million neurons to work together. We assume 5 million, and 5 million out of 1.5 billion. How many combinations? Of course, not any two neurons are adjacent to each other, but considering that each collaboration is on the order of a million, so let's ignore it (let me be lazy), what if it is 5 million out of 15 billion? (Don't try to use excel to do this statistics, it can't be calculated...) The result of this calculation is that after taking the magical Viagra, you can have more angles of thinking and space that are unimaginable. This is basically aliens than humans. The reason for being smarter and more rascal is that the hero in the film smashes the stock market, and the business community’s unparalleled explanation.
The second hypothesis is that the remaining 90% of the brain is always effective, but it is always in a dormant and ready state. When a person encounters life-threatening conditions, it bursts out and becomes n cores operating at the same time, that is to say, after taking the medicine , Your whole body is in a state of life-threatening, adrenaline surges to the edge of violent blood, just as everyone in the film took the medicine, immediately their faces glowed, the scene brightened, especially the heroine took the medicine, everything is in her It became extremely slow in front of me, and I almost matched sm pretending to be a catwoman.
The previous hypothesis has a side effect, that is, brain fever, body weakness, and internal organ failure. This is simple to understand. The maximum load that the human body structure can withstand can be calculated with modern technology. If the blood flow speed and the efficiency of the internal organs reach the level equivalent to the super brain request above, it will basically explode. . . Of course, before the body exploded, the brain may have been burnt. In addition, there is a detail in the movie that everyone who took the medicine was lame. What is going on? When a person is in danger, a large amount of blood will rush to the soles of the feet. This is the instinct of animals-to escape, so I guess that the blood flows too fast and the legs are broken.
However, the above two assumptions and the plot in the film will create a paradox.
If taking medicine can make the use rate of the human brain reach the limit, it will decline if you don’t take it, just like people who are over-stressed will not feel pain. Once they stop, it will It will be more painful, so according to the conservation of energy, the brain is over-used, the heat is emitted, and the brain cells die. In the end, the more you take the medicine, the faster you die, but the strange thing is that as long as you keep taking the medicine in the movie, nothing will happen.
So there is a third hypothesis, which is my personal favorite. The human brain is actually infinite. The current scientific and technological research is constantly overthrowing and refuting the basic concepts of the brain. We don’t even know the difference between memory and logic in neuronal signal transmission, just like the movie title "Limitless". We are far from reaching the limit of the human brain. In the film, people think that they have taken medicine to reach 100%. In fact, they are not. You just combine all the knowledge you have learned in a short period of time to give a much more accurate judgment than before. The extraordinary performance that ordinary people have in life, but this is only for 18 hours, so we can assume that the utilization rate of the human brain only increases by a pitiful 1/15 billion on the basis of 10%, which is a neuron. , It is enough to perfectly combine with the 10% already used, creating unimaginable new ideas and new speeds, and the increased heat of the human brain can be directly ignored. . .
The ending of the film, Robert. De Niro told Bradley Cooper that the medicine was actually made by his company. Now he shut down all the pharmaceutical factories to threaten Cooper to cooperate with him (he thought that Cooper had no pills just like other People die from organ failure), but Cooper said that before he ran out of pills, he was smart enough to improve the pills so that they don’t need to be taken anymore. . Suddenly it felt like a brain teaser problem. The original solution was so simple. In the final analysis, human beings are still animals after taking medicine. The desire has not been controlled by reason but has expanded and eventually swallowed everyone. A line said The original story-I can endure more pain than anyone you've ever met. That's why I can beat anyone I've ever met. It is precisely because I can endure more pain than anyone you've ever met. People I know.
Finally, as usual, let’s talk about the actors. The starring role is one of the leading actors in the famous shit butt movie "The Hangover". He also hosted "Break in the End" before and the slightly joking action film "Dragon Assault Team". But here he still didn't break through himself, he was born like a playboy who came out of an MBA.
Lao Luo. . . You can't be more insidious, how could the person who made this medicine be so polite. . .
