Just kind of everywhere.
And what happens is electrically, these waves will sometimes come together and crash and cancel each other out.
Sometimes they come together in phase and they add to one another.
And so they send this really chaotic wave.
series of electrical impulses to the bottom chambers of the heart.
The bottom chambers are just like the worker bees.
They just do as they're told.
The top chambers are really the managers of the situation.
So anytime there's a strong enough electrical impulse set from the top down to the bottom of the heart, the bottom chamber beats.
And so that's the fibrillation is this irregularly irregular aspect of beating.
