As you leave the concert, the hearing is not quite the same.

You feel that your hearing is a little bit muffled.

You can even experience that ringing in your ears.

So the gold standard of hearing evaluation around the world to this day is completely insensitive to the loss of those fibers.

So now you start to perceive a sound that is not there.

The leg is gone, but you start to feel pain where it's missing.

Your brain is artificially increasing the perception.

So in the case of touch, if I touch you with my finger like this, you're going to feel my finger.

But if I increase the perception, that's going to turn into pain.
