Every Irrational Fear Explained in 9 Minutes

Every irrational fear you secretly have, explained: why you sprint up the basement stairs after turning off the light, why a ringing phone feels like a bomb, and why so many people find clowns creepy. Eight everyday fears, one small story each: the dark, phone calls, the stove you definitely turned off, being watched, public speaking, deep water, holes and clowns. None of them mean something is wrong with you. Your brain just hates not knowing what is out there. 0:00 The dark 1:09 Phone calls 2:16 The stove 3:28 Being watched 4:30 Public speaking 5:32 Deep water 6:37 Holes 7:47 Clowns These videos are made to entertain first and inform second. Psychology is messy, so I simplify a lot to keep things short. Think of every video as a starting point, not the final word. #psychology #fear #brain
