Episode 23
You might think that memories are stored in the brain much like a video. this is completely false. The brain captures a memory much like photography, small pictures of a situation. and then constructs the pieces in between on it's own. This makes for a very bad memory if you want it to be accurate, this is why witnesses in court can tell a story completely different from one another.
Memories are also very fragile and especially when we just have experienced one and before it is stored in our long term memory base.
