Pain is miserable, but living without it is considerably worse. This episode explores the extraordinary lives of people born unable to feel pain, from a 1930s vaudeville performer (the "Human Pincushion") to a man who had both legs amputated without painkillers, to discover why pain hurts quite so much – and why your survival depends on it.
