Turns out that scientists have figured out how to remotely transmit brain signals from one person to another to cause person a to move person b's body. Yeah, you read that right.
Check it out.
One positive thing I can see for this is a situation like this:
Pilot has a heart attack. Passenger is selected to fly the plane, put into the right helmet, and a trained remote pilot on the ground takes over the passenger's actions to land the plane.
Yeah, remote controlling the plane would be easier, but this is much more cool.
