    Well considering time is just a concept created by humans as a means to create a structure to life then I’d say it’s possible.

    That Celtics back up players are not good enough to do a job against Leipzig back up players.

    Does this tie in with your extensions of time? What do you mean by space? The concept we have of the place beyond earth that is home to the planets? This is one for ogbflmt or whatever the Celtic scientist is called.:39:

    Well time or space or both measurements so either can count. But for this scenario we will say time.
    The example used was of a professional baseball game. The pitcher was throwing the ball at speeds of between 90 to 100mph over a distance of 60 feet to the batsman. Normally a brain can’t react at such speed over short distance, from release to bat takes 0.412 of a second.
    But professional baseball players brains have learned to slow down time not only to hit the ball but calculate what type of shot they will hit.
    Put simply, by the time a batter has decided to swing and what type of swing he will use, we can only say ‘onethou’ of the word ‘one thousand’.
    We are all capable of doing it in different situations, near miss car collisions being a good example.
    Yes yes yes, I love useless but interesting facts.
    Ps I wish Gordon would learn how to implement it better lol

    Know exactly what you mean. That would be your brain and perception processing time and a chain of events differently I’d say. Obviously with an expected action your reaction kicks in and the process is obviously broken down in stages as in baseball. The anticipation of the pitch to the strike as a series of actions made by two people and brings into play the saying “practice makes perfect,” or to an extent “may the best man win.”
    Such a broad field of theory and possibilities to explore but baseball is a good example. Definitely is perception as opposed to actuality. I’m sure some on here can relate to the process through use of class A’s. Been in situations where I have been that wasted that my brain has processed time differently and from both ends of the spectrum. Remember being on ketamine and going into a club and sitting down and thinking I was there for about an hour when the lights came on. Remember being in shock at that. Also a time I took that much LSD that I was convinced I was seeing the bass vibrating of the speakers as waves in the air and everything around it slowed down so much. Lasted about a couple of hours. Always liked to make my drug intake into a social experiment.:50:

    Aye acid for me always seemed to slow time down. Unfortunately not always with good results. Mind when your average dose was around 6-10 tabs it wasn’t always going to be good. But when it was, a whole new world would open up.

    The reason Germany wear a green away kit for football, is because Ireland were the first nation to play them after WW2, so Germany adopted it as a bit of a tribute.
