YOU CAN'T TICKLE YOURSELF!

Have you ever tried to tickle yourself and it doesn't work?  Well, this video explains why we can't tickle ourselves. It is partly due to the Cerebellum preparing you for a sensation. There is something that happens that is called active inference that doesn't allow your body to react to the sensation because your brain already knows it's coming.
