Subtitles

Your brain processes the equivalent

of around 1.6 megabytes per second.

That might not sound like much

until you realize that in just

one minute your brain will have

processed the equivalent of 96

million letters or about 300 books.

In one hour your brain will have

processed the equivalent of over

40 thousand webpages. And in a

day you'll have processed the

equivalent of 3 and a half days

of full HD video or 23 years of audio!

Oh and as a side note, around

3.8 terabytes of data is created

per second. But all humans on

the planet combined process the

equivalent of 12.8 thousand terabytes

per second.
