Yeah....sounds kinda like religion. I know this is math based, but how do they explain blisters if we don't actually "touch" anything?

What about dry, flaky skin? If we couldn't "touch" it, we'd never be able to break it off.

What about dirt, grease, grim, etc? Wouldn't all of that stuff just sort of "roll" off instead of needing soap/cleansers?

I love how the guy talking about his hands is staring at them like he's tripping on acid. I almost expected him to say " They call them fingers, but I've never seen them fing...oh, there they go!"

It doesnt sound like religion to me. Well I know if you look at your hand it will have rivets and fingerprints that the dirt can fit into. I dont know about everybody else but ill stick with the world renowned physicists rather than the internet skeptic.

I think but im not sure, that blisters have something to do with energy tranfer like a burn blister, or you putting to much pressure on something and your essensially pushing your skins field against the other field that the object creates.(note: this is just thinking out loud)

^ The atoms on a textile material protrude or recess a certain amount, and thus the electric field is stronger/weaker in those areas, applying a greater or lesser force against our "hand atoms", which in turn apply a greater/lesser force all up our body (in this case, the tips of our fingers) 'till it gets to some nerves, and thus the sense of touch is created.

i saw this documentary in 7th grade..

later they say (paraphrased) "if you run into a wall.. it is possible, that you could run right through it.. just not probable"

So ghosts must not have electric fields around their atoms.

^^ So if ghosts dont have electric fields. does that mean it's not possible to detect them using EMF meters? thus, proving the methods of "ghost hunters" useless?

Ghost hunters aren't real. The only real ghosthunters are the Ghostbusters. And that's FACT.

Thanks for telling me some really basic stuff about about the composition of the universe. Did anybody not know this already?

I guess everyone misunderstood me or I just didn't put things simply enough.

It's a nice video, but without the rest of it (and not all of us are science/physics majors) it's a bit...far reaching.

Maybe I should've made some asinine comment, eh?

MicMac: You are an idiot or the worst user of sarcasm ever...

Samxli: You might be on to something. But high EMF have shown to produce strange emotions when asleep or awake. It's very likely that EMF are what "ghosts" come from, they simply distort you body's own EMF and create wierd effects.
