In a tragic incident from Mumbai, a man became critical after doing a YouTube-guided meditation at 2X speed to save time.
Reportedly, the man wanted to calm his mind from the daily chaos of catching the local train to reach the office, dealing with his boss, then catching the local train back home, and listening to the second boss—his wife. However, he struggled to find time and could only manage 5 minutes for a meditation video that was 10 minutes long. So, he used his “brain” and played the video at 2X speed.
Sources at The Fauxy suggest that “due to breathing at double the speed, the man fainted and was rushed to the hospital“.
Currently, the man is increasing the drip speed so he can get discharged sooner.
