I've read the Wikipedia page on it. I just don't know nearly enough about the brain to be comfortable with it.

On a related note, there was a thread on What about this, and someone posted this video. Close your eyes and listen through headphones (loudly). Pretty cool stuff.

I considered trying it once, but I did a bit of googling and found mass consensus that it was complete bullshit, so I never did.

Okay, that was pretty cool.  It really felt like I was in an entirely different place.  Very real for something that's nothing more than audio recorded with a few microphones.

Forgot to post about that last night, but that was awesome.
Jumped when he whispered in my ear, it felt so real.

This sentimental movie marathon has taught us one thing.
The opposite of true love is as follows:

Pretty sure that barber shop clip was posted on Orbital multiple years ago.

No. I think it preceded Tina.

I hadn't seen the video until a couple of days ago.

It doesn't work. I've tried it a few times. Granted I don't think I was doing it entirely right, nevertheless I doubt it would work. Perhaps it would have an effect similar to hypnosis but it wouldn't get you "high".

I remember seeing that video a long time ago from here. I remember showing it to all my friends because it was so awesome.
