| How your brain can heal your body: Astonishing new research reveals the brain's ability to rewire itself can conquer pain - and overcome 'untreatable' illnesses.

Pain specialist Dr Michael Moskowitz was 49 when he and a friend decided to take a look at some army tanks and other armoured vehicles that were about to take part in a parade. Dr Moskowitz couldn't resist climbing up onto a tank turret.
