The Human Body: Our Memory

Daily Planet gets a cue from our brain. We meet a man who has a superhuman capacity for  memory, and learn how scanning pilots’ brains can improve the art of flying. We explore how a blind daredevil uses his mind and senses to deep dive alongside sharks and successfully pilot a high-powered jet. This exciting Daily Planet program demonstrates how everything from performing simple to complex tasks, retaining information and our bodies’ reactions are all controlled by signals from our brain!
