Videos of Brazilian man Anthony Kulkamp Dias playing the Beatles' song "Yesterday" as his brain was undergoing surgery have been making the rounds online.
"I played six songs at certain times," he said to The Telegraph. "My right hand was a bit weaker because that was the side that they were operating on. So I stopped and rested. I was interspersing songs and talking with them."
Being active and conscious during brain surgery helps doctors monitor for injuries to the patient's brain in real time. (Warning: Brains.)
