      I don’t really know about brain science, but apparently the idea that we don’t use 100% of our brains is a myth and that we do usually use most of it (if not all) on a daily basis.

      Probably our head would get really hot. As our brain cells would needs lots of blood to help supply them with oxygen and the things they need to function.

      But in reality, the connections in the brain are really complicated, and so it’s kind of hard to say what using 100% means.
