Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for somebody else's chamers. We got
- 0:03Speaker 1: a question for our American mama's. Dear mamas, did you
- 0:05Speaker 1: hear about the man in the coma who woke up
- 0:07Speaker 1: and believed the life he created in his mind was
- 0:10Speaker 1: actually real?
- 0:11Speaker 2: Well, let's ask our Americ and mama's mama, mama, and
- 0:26Speaker 2: ding is now our American mama's turning out of vite
- 0:28Speaker 2: and Kimberly Burlison, I am reminded of what I think
- 0:32Speaker 2: is perhaps the best episode of Star Trek the Next Generation,
- 0:37Speaker 2: when Jean Luke Picard is probed by an alien spaceship
- 0:41Speaker 2: and he blacks out and they can't separate this link,
- 0:45Speaker 2: and what happens is Jean Lupicard goes and lives an
- 0:50Speaker 2: entire other life on another planet.
- 0:53Speaker 1: He has kids, he grows up, part of the civilization,
- 0:56Speaker 1: only to watch the planet's son go super nova. And
- 0:59Speaker 1: then he comes and he was only out for like,
- 1:01Speaker 1: you know, forty minutes or whatever. But it was such
- 1:04Speaker 1: a powerful character changing episode, and you think about living
- 1:10Speaker 1: an entire life that wasn't real, and how sad it was.
- 1:12Speaker 1: It was one of the best episodes of Star Trek.
- 1:15Speaker 3: Saying that is exactly what happened to this man in England. Yes,
- 1:21Speaker 3: he had something happen with all of his you know
- 1:23Speaker 3: something whatever, But he got put into a medically induced
- 1:27Speaker 3: coma and while he was in the coma he lived
- 1:30Speaker 3: seven years. He and his wife had twins. He had
- 1:33Speaker 3: a successful gem. He said it was the most detailed.
- 1:36Speaker 3: It was a full life that he had. He woke
- 1:39Speaker 3: up from his coma and the first thing he asked
- 1:41Speaker 3: his wife was where are the kids. She's like, we
- 1:43Speaker 3: don't have kids, and he said he grieved, grieved so
- 1:48Speaker 3: much he had to have counseling because he grieved for
- 1:51Speaker 3: these children. So little twists. A little fun part of
- 1:53Speaker 3: the story is his wife is pregnant with twins right now,
- 1:56Speaker 3: which is very interesting.
- 1:58Speaker 2: WHOA.
- 1:58Speaker 3: But while I was sharing this story with my son,
- 2:01Speaker 3: my son said, have you ever heard of a hallucinant
- 2:04Speaker 3: drug called I think it's celvia or something, And he said,
- 2:08Speaker 3: this is what happens to people. They go in under
- 2:10Speaker 3: this drug and they think they are sometimes they're zippers
- 2:14Speaker 3: or they're like a fence post, but they live thousand years,
- 2:17Speaker 3: hundreds of years. So although they're under for like five minutes,
- 2:21Speaker 3: they believe they are living in eternity, and a lot
- 2:24Speaker 3: of them. I go and read it to find out
- 2:26Speaker 3: more information. They will commit suicide when they wake up.
- 2:29Speaker 3: It was like, and so this particular drug is not
- 2:33Speaker 3: being abused because the experience is so horrendous that they
- 2:39Speaker 3: don't want to ever do it again while they do
- 2:40Speaker 3: it in the first place. Makes no sense to me.
- 2:42Speaker 3: But so I'm looking up. Do they use the same
- 2:45Speaker 3: kind of thing when they put people in an induced coma?
- 2:47Speaker 2: Is that?
- 2:48Speaker 3: But no, it's completely different. It's just how the brain
- 2:51Speaker 3: works sometimes.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Wow, I know that is fascinating and heartbreaking at the
- 2:57Speaker 1: same time.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Absolutely, because if.
- 2:58Speaker 1: You genuinely believe those memories were real, right, then, yeah,
- 3:03Speaker 1: you'd have to mourn that.
- 3:04Speaker 4: There was a young female that had the same thing
- 3:07Speaker 4: happened to her, and she was a teenager, but she
- 3:09Speaker 4: dreamed she had a kid, and she missed the kids.
- 3:13Speaker 4: She grieved for that child that she never had. But
- 3:15Speaker 4: it was so real that she wanted like, she wanted
- 3:18Speaker 4: to go back. She wanted to go back and to
- 3:21Speaker 4: the Komas to be with her child. Wow. It's interesting,
- 3:24Speaker 4: isn't it. The human brain?
- 3:26Speaker 2: It really is.
- 3:26Speaker 1: And there's a lot of there's a lot of stuff
- 3:29Speaker 1: that still goes on in the human brain that we
- 3:30Speaker 1: have no idea.
- 3:31Speaker 4: How about those people that come out of a coma
- 3:33Speaker 4: and they're speaking a completely different language.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Different accents yea, and they can't explain it.
- 3:39Speaker 4: I can know it fascinating. Well, now that we've heard
- 3:43Speaker 4: about all these UFO type you know, with the government,
- 3:47Speaker 4: you're like, my, wait a minute, maybe there's something to this.
- 3:51Speaker 3: Well, they say that even our brains, like we we
- 3:53Speaker 3: haven't even begun to tap into the capabilities of our brain.
- 3:57Speaker 3: They're so capable of so much, and we are only
- 4:00Speaker 3: just like a tiny bit into understanding how it works.
- 4:05Speaker 1: And one of the things that I always thought was
- 4:07Speaker 1: kind of haunting about that that Star Trek episode is
- 4:09Speaker 1: in the in the in the flat, in the memories
- 4:12Speaker 1: that were being implanted in him, Captain Picard learned to
- 4:15Speaker 1: play a flute, a native flute on this planet. You
- 4:19Speaker 1: know that that his that had blown up by the
- 4:21Speaker 1: time he gets this pro and at the end of
- 4:23Speaker 1: the episode he's playing the flute. There was an.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Actual flute there.
- 4:27Speaker 4: He actually he.
- 4:29Speaker 1: Had actually learned this new skill while in this this
- 4:33Speaker 1: coma induced think but again that's fiction. Well you're talking
- 4:37Speaker 1: about is something that's somebody else.
- 4:39Speaker 3: Have you ever had dreams that feel that way for y'all?
- 4:43Speaker 3: Feel so real?
- 4:44Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 4:44Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there's a fever dream. I had one time
- 4:47Speaker 1: that was very very odd, but very very realistic.
- 4:51Speaker 4: Do you remember the time I called you Stone was
- 4:53Speaker 4: like six months old. Yeah, you're living in Utah. I
- 4:56Speaker 4: had a dream that he fell out of the bed
- 5:00Speaker 4: and like he was in an emergency state. But I
- 5:03Speaker 4: called Kimberly in the middle of it was so real
- 5:06Speaker 4: to me. I called her, well, I said, she woke
- 5:09Speaker 4: up frantic, like you know, I said, can we go
- 5:12Speaker 4: check on Stone?
- 5:13Speaker 3: She said what?
- 5:14Speaker 4: So she goes there and he was completely fine, But
- 5:17Speaker 4: I or was right there with her. But that dream
- 5:20Speaker 4: was so real that I thought something actually happened and
- 5:24Speaker 4: that I had some sort of esp or. You've got
- 5:27Speaker 4: those dreams. A lot of wives have had them, where
- 5:30Speaker 4: you dreamed that your husband is having an affair with somebody.
- 5:33Speaker 4: You wake up, you're so mad all morning and they're like, wait,
- 5:36Speaker 4: I did not do that. That was a dream. Don't
- 5:39Speaker 4: touch me.
- 5:40Speaker 3: I have never had that dream.
- 5:42Speaker 2: You never have.
- 5:43Speaker 4: Oh that's a common dream, Wendy, have you Yes, it's
- 5:47Speaker 4: very common.
- 5:48Speaker 1: Yes, she had I was in trouble.
