10 Fascinating Facts About Hallucinations

DIY Hallucinations

People can create their own hallucinations. They do it every day. Sometimes people imagine themselves sitting behind the wheel of a car in their dreams. At other times, they imagine themselves eating that triple-scoop ice cream cone as someone walks by with one in his or her hand. Imagination is the mildest form of hallucination. Inventors rely on this form of hallucination to 'dream up' new ideas. The 'American Dream' is one of the key motivators of success in the United States. Leonardo Da Vinci, Albert Einstein, Rene Descartes, and more have discovered their best ideas in dreams. The brain assembles knowledge and facts together and neatly outputs the solution in the form of a dream or hallucination.
