A brain syndrome called mirrored touch synaesthesia causes people to physically feel what other people are feeling just by looking at them. For example, a person can look at a dog and fee fur texture on his palms, this is an involuntary response. Brain automatically fills in what it thinks the dog feels like without needing to touch it. Sometimes people also have mirror-taste, so they can look at something and “taste” it in their mouth.
