Sorry Lewis but you must be super sensitive- as the brain has no pain receptors. Only the scalp/periosteum and the meninges can sense pain, so you can actually do brain surgery without anaesthetic once these are opened- the Meso-American cultures discovered this fact when they made a paste out of chewed up cocoa leaves and pasted it into deep skull wounds before decompressing skull fractures etc.
The brain can interprete pain from other sources though, eg. your sensorium- sensing air pressure changes and vibration in low frequencies via skin/ ears/ pressure changes in the bowel/ sinuses, other air spaces etc., a fact the U.S Military used to use ? in Guantanamo to great effect (allegedly).
Not usually a pedant but it was my area of research as a young laddie!
Now back to that Patrick Swayze film..!
