Hey, Vsauce. Michael here. And today we are going to talk about why we dream.

00:05

What's going on inside our brains?

00:07

The scientific study of dreaming is called oneriology.

00:11

And for most of history, it didn't really exist,

00:14

because you can't hold a dream.

00:16

rapidly darting all over the place underneath their eyelids.

01:04

You can actually see this happening if you watch people sleep like I usually do.

01:07

During REM sleep, some pretty bizarre stuff happens.

01:10

If you look at the electrical activity of a brain

01:13

that is in REM sleep, it almost exactly mimics
