Sometimes things happen that humans just can’t explain in the short-term—or for a long while after. Curious Events Day is October 9 and it's the day to wonder about everything we've ever wondered about.
In 2014, Australian native Ben McMahon spent a week in a coma following a car accident. When he awoke, the English speaker instead spoke fluent Mandarin, which he had previously studied, but not to any strong level. Scientists understand that brain trauma can damage portions areas of the brain where speaking skills are stored, possibly causing the brain to re-circuit to other language skills—regardless of how minimal—stored in different zones. But how sudden fluency is achieved isn't known. How curious.
