Using the full potential of the body is dangerous, it'll break itself. It's just incredible that evolution has not only created a system of internal safety limits within the body but also an override for when not breaking them is more dangerous. Any situation where you should turn the adrenalin on, it'll happen automatically. Tbh that's probably evolved too. People with control over it broke their bones and didn't reproduce while people with no adrenalin switch only used it responsibly. | ||

Your body feeds sensory information (like OMG a knife is in me) to the brain. The brain then sorts it and feeds it to the conscious mind to act upon it. If it thinks your conscious mind needs to sort shit out and get out of the situation it'll give you a dose of pain as encouragement. However if it thinks you're already on the case it'll not bother you with the fine details until you're less busy with everything else. It's really remarkable when you think about it. The mind is essentially ethereal, the brain can be quantified and analysed but the mind isn't something measurable. And this concept of a mind can suffer pain which is impossible to describe. Imagine you had to describe pain to someone who had never felt it, there's no analogy that fits. A conceptual thing called the mind suffers a conceptual thing called pain when it feels its evolutionary chances of reproduction are being damaged. None of that even makes sense. Nature is so incredible. | ||

In theory, your brain should be able to go "you just wrote off your car, now how are you gonna get laid, don't do that again" and hit you with some pain. haha | ||

The legs are a part of the body but not a part of the person. That's the difference I was trying to explain. It's hard because language wasn't really created for this kind of theoretical nonsense but I was saying the body is just decoration around the mind. | ||
