What if aluminum foil hats really did block harmful rays and they were stigmatized to keep people from doing it?

Re: What if aluminum foil hats really did block harmful rays and they were stigmatized to keep people from doing it?
I use sheet lead in my work, i constructed a helmet lined with lead.

Now the weird part.

Once i placed it on my head, it as like someone turned down the volume in my head. My head became quiet and clam..like background noise was eliminated.

All i can think of what happened , was that I stop radio waves and other freq wave from going past the lead shielding.


but don't take my word for it, try it.


I now have that helmet around when i need a good nap or just a break from being bombarded by radio waves all day..

aluminum is poison to the human electrical system.

Nice Experiment to try: Hold an aluminum pipe in your hand and point it at the solar plexus on someone...it steals the life giving force from the body an shows a muscle weakness in the biceps when you do.

Try to hold back someones arm pushing against you and you will notice the difference in the amount of push it takes both ways...neat

Tin foil hats work:

[link to www.youtube.com (secure)]
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74733236

let's really focus on electromagnetic radiation. Foil, being a metal, is very good at reflecting electromagnetic radiation. You can see this quite easily by looking at a sheet of aluminum/tin foil: it is shiny and you may even see a reflection of yourself. Physically this happens because electrons can move easily within the foil. Electromagnetic radiation impinging on the foil causes these electrons to move, and that motion produces new electromagnetic radiation which generates new radiation which destructively interferes with the original incoming radiation. This leads to cancellation of the incoming wave so that it does not penetrate the foil, and creation of a new outgoing wave which is the reflection you see.

Now this isn't the whole story. Radiation with a wavelength at about the same size as the hat actually winds up resonating inside the hat. In an effect similar to a vibration of a violin/guitar string, radiation that fits nicely inside the metal cavity formed by the hat actually winds up creating electromagnetic fields which are bigger than the incoming field. You can get a rough idea of how this works on the Wikipedia page for resonance. It's the same effect as when you blow gently over a bottle and hear a loud hum sound.

What if it's actually a receptor? When I was a kid I would stick foil on my bunny ear antenna to try and get a better signal.

Gold foil or aluminum foil do block most of the electromagnetic waves. Place a small radio inside a box wrapped in foil (such as a shoe box... there'll be no sound. Take the foil off, you then receive the signal... and sound.

This isn't a "what if" it is actually true.

The human brain is pounded constantly every second of every day with all kinds of microwaves from cell phone signals and everything else effectively slow-cooking your brain.
The foil hat would provide a shelter of sorts from these effects.

They've ridiculed the solution, the same way they ridiculed Trump even though he was actually the best guy on the scene for Americans. They ridicule all Conspiracy Theorists as "flat earthers" or "Qtards".
I believe that the flat earth thing was brought back to make Conspiracy people look stupid.

JFK was a "Conspiracy Theorist".
And they killed him for speaking the truth.
