For instance, on fatal impact. Would you feel the impact before losing consciousness?
I know A-delta fibre myelin sheathed nerves will transmit over 100 metres a second (0.61ms). The questions therefor are: A ) How fast does unconsciousness occur? B ) What speed does the brain recognize pain from nerve signals? |
