$So do you think you were able to pick out the fake smile? If you pick the one of a left, you're correct. Okay, let's try another around which smile is fake. Surprised it's harder than you thought, right? If you didn't get this correct, you're not alone. We wanted to see if the average person who spot a fake smile. So we brought this game to the park that fake and found the people only get IT right about half the time. Yes, I think that once real, it's really hard to tell. Yeah I don't know unless you know how smiles actually work. There is a term, okay? It's called the duan smile. Do shine. Smile means it's a real smile. The real smile involves the muscles around the eyes being a part of the smile. The ym. Dushin was a french scientist who wanted to learn more about facial expressions, so he used electric stimulation to create a fake smile. Then he compared IT to a real one by telling his subject a joke. And the difference was striking. What he discovered is that a real smile causes the muscles around your eyes to contract, creating tel tale crinkles. Never, you know the trick. Let's see if you can pick out the fake smile, which smile is real, right or the left? The eyes are a dead giveaway, right? The smile on the left is genuine. Wants to try another one. What do you think? See how the skin around the ice crunches up in voluntarily? The last smile is real. Okay, one more. But it's a little trick here. Which smile is real? The right or the left? Can you see how the skin around her eyes wrinkled up just a tiny bit more on the right, that the real smile is not surprising, that real and fake smiles activate two different parts of the brain. A real smile involves the areas of the brain related to emotion.
