Had mind expanding thoughts during mri

A couple of years ago i went to the hospital to have an MRI scan of my back. It was the first time I've ever been in the MRI machine. During the procedure i could hear the usual bumps and metallic noises. But something odd happened. I had a mind expanding experience; i had thoughts about the entire universe and how i fitted into the larger scheme. It was not like being on drugs but was still mind expending. It is was over as soon as i came out of the machine. Had this happened to anyone else?

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    No, I've been for two MRIs and didn't experience anything like this unfortunately. Idk, maybe just because of the enclosed space and bright lights and loud noise it acted kinda like a sensory deprivation tank or something. Pretty cool anyway though.

    You may have had a slight amount of metal in your brain and the MRI pulled some of it through your brain. Nothing major... just a foreign object coursing it's way through your jelly brain, the mortal engine that is you.
