The disease can cause an escape experience

Problems with the vestibular system may be the cause of the human escape experience.

While driving and speeding up, a French patient feels like he's outside the car and looks at his own physical body. This patient is participating in a new study of scientists at Aix-Marseille University, France. The results of the study, published in Cortex magazine, experience this patient's physical excretion (escaping the body) in relation to the problems of inner ear, according to LiveScience.

Maya Elzière, co-author of the study, expert on ear, nose and throat at Européen Hospital in Marseille, France, analyzed 210 patients with vestibular disorders. They often encounter problems such as loss of balance, tinnitus and ear infection. Among these patients, 14% reported having experienced the phenomenon of leaving the body. Meanwhile, in those who do not suffer from vestibular disorders, this number is only 5%.

" The external experience occurs in patients with vestibular disorders three times higher than healthy people, " said Christophe Lopez, the study's lead author.

The vestibular system is made up of many structures inside the inner ear, helping the body to create a sense of balance and spatial orientation. The malfunction of this system can cause dizziness, dizziness and many other symptoms.

Lopez said that in the case of French patients having an experience outside the body when speeding up, the vestibular system will be responsible for guiding, helping the driver feel forward while accelerating. If the vestibular system fails, it sends false signals to the brain, creating an inaccurate sense of body and surroundings.

Of the 29 patients who participated in the study who reported having an external experience, a patient described feelings of "getting into the body like in an envelope from above". Another patient said, "I see my body, smaller, from above."

The study also showed that most patients experience an external experience after their first dizziness. According to Lopez, this suggests that problems with the vestibular system are one of the factors that create a sense of escape.
