There’s an interesting article in the New Scientist about blinking.
Worried you’ll blink and miss a crucial piece of the action? Then you can relax. While watching a film, we subconsciously control the timing of blinks to make sure we don’t miss anything important. And because we tend to watch films in a similar way, moviegoers often blink in unison, researchers find.
I’m not sure what’s more impressive, that we all blink in unison or that we can subconsciously figure out when the best time to blink is.
