locked

inside a

sensory

deprivation

tank

for an hour, let's talk about that mythical good day, yay, let's leave the studio to go on a

sensory

deprivation

adventure, okay, I'll travel now, you know, we live in Los Angels, there's a lot of weird stuff going on here, we hear about these things called sensory deprivation

tank

s, the idea that you go into this completely lightless soundproof chamber that's filled with water, that you're floating in a box, you don't experience any sensations. , they started doing this in the '50s, there was a guy. His name was John Lilly, I think that was his name, and he was experiencing this sensory deprivation and seeing what would happen and he started having hallucinations, he said.

He made contact with beings from other planets, went to other dimensions, a little crazy. Feeling like people use it for meditation and relaxation like an alternative medicine, now they are paying all the money to do this, they float on their backs, but you feel like you are floating weightless, that's what they say well, so we decided why No Let's go and find out what this is all about, maybe we'll get in touch with someone on another floor or maybe we'll just have a good time relaxing, so we've documented the process, let's start the field trip, now here it is.

It doesn't look like this, it looks like a store, it looks like a house. I wanted it to be a mall. I was hoping there would be a cryogenic chamber in a mall. Well, it's somewhere in his house, so I'm up until we're supposed to meet Edy in the courtyard. Butt hey, hey, I'm a link, Rhett, hey, yeah, we should get ready to evolve, it's up to you, that's the whole point of floating, floating, it's about doing nothing, you have to choose if you want to or not. do that because otherwise it's just boring, nothing's right, but you want it to be exciting, nothing's this is your house, yeah, okay, it's nice, you've got a Christmas ornament here, when you come out of nowhere, it's here to that you join the world in a place where you can enjoy life and color and be with your friends and express yourself but what you are saying is that this is nothing there, we will not have to experience anything that you have to understand at the moment you you try to define Nothing, you filled it with something.

Can we see this? Nothing, let's see, yes, we will take you to the chamber. Is he in some kind of dungeon situation? No, but we can fix it. Nassau, use the tank for pre-flight space training of astronauts. How deep is it? It is a void. It is approximately 80 25 feet deep. It's this little hole up here. Are you kidding? David, no, I meant, no, no. K is 10 inches. I'm lighting the flash light. I still can't see anything. I couldn't even see that, yeah, what do you think it was going to be? I thought so. He told me he was 25 feet.

Now I believed it as if I couldn't see anything. It's just darkness. The tank does nothing. It doesn't really do anything. nothing, but it doesn't do anything really well. I want you to go first because if you don't make it, I probably won't get in. Yes, simple, no, now we will all go to the arrest room. Well, what's going on where you are? I'm going to start right, this is where your end comes, so rest well. You're going to tell yourself naked and you're going to put on like a robe and then you're going to go into the chamber, yeah, and I know we're.

I'm going to say goodbye, goodbye voix, it's nice to meet you and we'll close the lid, that's the process. Yes, looking for consciousness in the brain is like looking for the announcer inside a radio. The word listen contains the same letters as the word silence. You wrote? you're not ready, it looks like you just came out of the tank robe a little small, we're not ready to enter the chamber, yeah, and listen, there's nothing under this room except me, haha, let's do it, okay, wrap it up , are you, yes, what is it? that noise that is the waves of the ocean, the water splashing, yes, you have your earplugs, yes, I'm going to make contact, well, I have preached for an hour, man, I appreciate the moments we have had together and I wish you the best. best I can.

I don't hear a thing you say, I love you like a brother, yeah, it's okay, great, I'll see you on the other side, we'll open it for you, it's okay, everything will be okay, don't worry, there's nothing better. than to do nothing, okay, it's been about 60 minutes since Red was in the cryogenic chamber, that's what it's called, no, that's freezing him to death, we'll get him out now and hopefully he's still okay, you're alive, Dude, are you okay, Rhett? Come out, come out, buddy, Rhett, relax, buddy, really, you okay? What happened? What was it? Should I do it?

As was? Should I do it? Are you OK? Do what's in the reprocessing process Yes, so seriously, I should have done that. I should do this, yeah, I mean do you have any last second advice? I feel like you should have the same expectations as me, the earplugs are the hardest part, okay, I already put the earplugs in, okay, see you in about an hour, okay, bye, it's getting dark, it's It's getting dark in here, this is supposed to be pitch black, I mean, it's a pitch black head, it's supposed to be dark, that's cool, ed, you're welcome, yeah, oh man, do you want to go down to the al table and we can report yeah well actually I'm going to report I mean I'm going to put on my boxers okay welcome the laugh like it came out of the camera was authentic it was out there oh I mean he It's like me, I knew it wasn't. like put on I don't think I fell asleep for too long, but I definitely don't like something happening idiot, idiot, it's all phases, really phases of people that come my way.

I know people I don't know. I know people who weren't real people, people who seemed attracted to the minute, just two-dimensional people. It was very relaxing for me at first. I felt like there was a disorientation that I imagined was like being in space like me. Did Sandra Bullock identify more with George Clooney? I was totally Sandra Bullock. Okay, I'm totally lost and these robes are pretty and if the fruit tray was a very nice touch to the decor, well, it was quite an experience of nothing, yes, but it was really something, yes.
