Why Do Some People Get Déjà Vu More Than Others?

This video breaks down the real neuroscience behind déjà vu: how your brain's memory-checking system can misfire and flag a brand new experience as familiar, why the temporal lobe appears to control how often this happens, and why — counterintuitively — déjà vu actually gets rarer as you get older rather than more common. We also look at how stress, fatigue, and even epilepsy connect to this strange, doubled sense of recognition. It's not a glitch in the universe. It's a glitch in a system that's usually working perfectly, and understanding it is honestly more interesting than any supernatural explanation.
