Summary:
Can you really believe your eyes? Horizon reveals some of the strangest illusions created by science to show how our natural senses really work ... and how we could learn to manipulate them. Discover that colour is a subjective experience created in our imaginations, meet the man who has learnt to 'see' like a bat and the pilots learning to land helicopters blindfolded. A better understanding of our senses is opening up exciting new possibilities, enabling people to harness powers they never knew they had, as well as making us question whether we can really trust our senses at all!
