Had to look the meaning up, but have had several films give this effect. End of Braveheart when his sword is thrown to name one.

For me the feeling of ASMR (I do wish there was a better name for it) is very different from getting the chills or goosebumps but definitely feel free to post about either reaction. I tend to get the chills from big emotional moments or music but ASMR usually stems from watching people perform fairly mundane or technical tasks. It’s pretty weird.

There's a little seen movie called, "Shoot the Sun Down" from 1980. A western with Christopher Walken. There's a scene where he's in a stable, gently petting and feeding his horse, talking to it in a whisper, and that used to relax me almost to sleep.

There's one in Woody Allen's "Alice", with Mia Farrow, where she's talking to Joe Mantegna, and setting up a date talking about music, and her soothing voice in that scene always gave me ASMR, LOL.

The first scene in Gravity. Also the point of view scenes with Sandra Bullock inside her spacesuit.

It's basically like a hands-free SPA.

It's a tingling sensation. Some people experience it, some don't.
I’ve been following Gentle Whispering for years. Her earlier work is especially tingly when she’s not reliant on all these different objects lol.

Also, for some reason, several German steelbook unboxing videos are like ASMR to me.

It means Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. ASMR

Some people get it from soft spoken voices or certain sounds or hand movements, things like that.

It is a relaxing, warm, tingly sensation some people get. It puts some people to sleep.


And, no, it isn't limited to Millennials, LOL.

In fact, most ASMR people are older.
