The human brain has about 100,000,000,000 (100 billion) neurons.
From all the oxygen that a human breathes, twenty percent goes to the brain.
People who ride on roller coasters have a higher chance of having a blood clot in the brain.
Once a human reaches the age of 35, he/she will start losing approximately 7,000 brain cells a day. The cells will never be replaced.
It is not possible to tickle yourself. The cerebellum, a part of the brain, warns the rest of the brain that you are about to tickle yourself. Since your brain knows this, it ignores the resulting sensation.
A women from Berlin Germany has had 3,110 gallstones taken out of her gall bladder.
In America, the most common mental illness is Anxiety Disorders.
Your brain is 80% water.
Your brain is move active and thinks more at night than during the day.

Re: Brain Facts
How does fact 7 relate to the topic?
Hassan its pretty obvious ... blood flow probably fluctuates when riding a roller coaster, due to the physics of the ride ... which might cause damage to the brain ...

Re: Brain Facts
Adrenaline gets pumped when on a rollar coaster, this increases blood flow, so it also increases pressure, methinks.
