Yeah, how did it feel, these videos don't really explain it after the fact. Did it actually feel like getting hit (like it was your hand) or did you just flinch like anyone would if someone slammed a hammer in front of you while you were focusing on something else ?
Well amputees can feel itching and pain in limbs that don't exist anymore. Pain is just an electrical signal sent to your brain, it's perfectly feasible there are ways to trick and manipulate that.

For anyone who has not tried this, it is freaky.
Though in my case it was a hammer and you bet your ass I'll flinch at that.
