They Looked Like Us (The Predator Theory)

Описание: Why do you feel afraid when you look in the mirror for too long?

The Uncanny Valley isn't just a glitch in your brain. It is an ancient biological warning system. Scientists say we fear things that look human—but aren't quite human—because of evolution. But what exactly were we evolving to escape?

In this video essay, we dive deep into the Predator Theory. This controversial hypothesis suggests that at some point in human history, we co-existed with a predator that mimicked our appearance to hunt us. From the "frozen smile" to the absence of micro-expressions, your brain is wired to detect the imposter.

We explore the 7 psychological reasons why human faces trigger primal fear, the science of the Uncanny Valley, and the dark truth about our ancestors' survival.
