Number 10: Delayed Eyesight.
You would think that our eyes register what they see right away…this very instant…but this is only partially true. Here’s what actually happens. Our eyes do register the outside world right away, but it takes some time for the brain to “get the signal” from the eyes. So, it does all happen that very second…but not that very millisecond.
It turns out that humans pick up the visual signals immediately, but our brain cannot decipher them for at least 12-13 milliseconds. At MIT, a research was conducted, and the subjects were shown a series of images, with every single image lasting from 13 to 18 milliseconds. Then, as the experiment went along, the exposure time for every image got shorter and shorter. 13 milliseconds was the lowest threshold for image recognition. 
Since the brain doesn’t register the visual input right away…we can say that, technically speaking – we’re all living in the past. Far out!
Number 9: Invisible Stripes.
Well, it turns out our bodies are covered stripes, but they happen to be invisible.  Ever heard of Blaschko’s Lines? 
At the start of the 20th century, there was a German doctor named Alfred Blaschko, whose field of expertise was dermatology, or, the study of skin. After some research, doctor Blaschko found out that the moles and rashes on human skin actually weren’t randomly dispersed, but instead had a particular order. He started noticing patterns that moles and rashes followed, and those patterns were separate from the patterns of nerves or blood vessels. Blaschko thought that he got them all, but, as technology advanced, it was later discovered there were even more than the original number.
These patterns, named after the doctor who discovered them, are a direct result of our cells’ migration as they move around to make room for new cells as our body grows. The amazing thing is that the shapes of the patterns are different for each section of our body; so, there is a V shape on our back, and an S shape on our sides and our chest, whereas our head is covered in wavy shapes. Who would have thought, eh? 
Number 8: The Plot Thickens.
Our body was designed as the perfect mechanism. It protects itself, and prepares for bad situations on the horizon. As an example, when stress and anxiety hit our body, it responds by activating blood coagulation. The reason for this is to prepare for potential “damage to the system”; if a physical injury happens, there is a high chance of hemorrhage. The blood can begin to thicken in advance, so that clotting can be encouraged and prepared for an incident.
However, this can often lead to more trouble. Although quick blood coagulation is a good measure in the short-term, it might result in fatal consequences. Studies have shown that those patients with anxiety disorders stand a 3-4 times higher chance of dying from heart failure, because stress-caused coagulation can easily lead to heart attack. So, don’t get too angry, or too nervous – it really isn’t good for you!
Number 7: The Brain Ignores the Nose.
This may sound like an English idiom, but it’s not. It’s actually one of the facts of life. Yup, our brain simply ignores our nose – not as a body part, but as a visual object. There is a neurological process called “sensory gating”, which is nothing more than a fancy term for the filtering of information. The human brain is constantly being bombarded with all kinds of information, in the form of visual, audio and other sensory stimuli – and it has to sort out what the heck is going on with all of that data. This is why the brain came up with a brilliant idea: to filter out the given information and make a priority list. Basically, our brain is such a skilled computer – that it can literally notice every single stimuli in the blink of an eye; every breath, every tongue movement and motion the body takes. It just chooses not to – because it doesn’t have to. There is no practical need for it. 
Have you ever tried looking at your nose? Okay, so, you actually 
CAN do it, but there is no need for it – because there’s plenty of more important stuff to pay attention to. So, the nose gets literally overlooked.

Number 6: Completing the Blind Spot.
The blind spot is an interesting phenomenon of our visual senses. Literally speaking, it is any obscuration of the human visual field.
