The human brain is capable of doing some amazing things. The brain is a delicate part of our body that has three vital sub-parts namely the brain stem, cerebellum and cerebrum, which control specific functions. This soft nervous tissue acts as the coordinating means of nervous, intellectual and sensational activity. The role of the brain physiologically is exerting centralized control on the other body organs. Here we have discussed five of the most fascinating things ever done by the human brain.
