🎵 The Iron Drove Through His Brain - Phineas Gage, September 13, 1848 (History Song)

✍️ Human Researched & Written | 🤖 AI Voice Phineas Gage was born in Vermont in 1823. He worked as a railroad construction foreman and was known for his reliability. On September 13, 1848, an explosion drove a tamping iron through his head. The rod entered his cheek, passed behind his left eye, and exited through the top of his skull, destroying much of his left frontal lobe. Remarkably, Gage survived and lived for nearly 12 more years. He remained conscious immediately after the accident, but friends and doctors observed a dramatic change in his personality. Once responsible and dependable, he became impulsive, unstable, and profane. His case quickly became known worldwide. For a time, Gage appeared in shows, presenting the tamping rod that had nearly killed him. Later, he worked as a stagecoach driver in Chile before returning to California. He began to suffer from seizures and died in San Francisco in 1860. Phineas Gage’s survival and subsequent behavioral changes provided one of the first pieces of evidence linking the frontal lobes of the brain to personality and decision-making. His case remains a cornerstone in the history of neuroscience. #phineasgage #vermont #1848 #railroad #accident #trauma #frontalcortex #personalitychange #historysong #neuroscience #ai 📘 Glossary Phineas Gage - American railroad foreman, survivor of a traumatic brain injury.
