100% of the human brain is used. There is a common myth that most people use only 10% of their brains, but that is only a myth. At any given moment, about 10% of your neurons may be firing, which is a possible source of the misconception. And in reality, the brain of a smarter person is slightly less active than the brain of a less intelligent person while performing the same activities.

it's not "percentise", it's "percentile". it's not "wat" it's "what". It's not "da" it's "the" ("da" means "yes" in Russian). Geez.
anyway, we all use pretty much all of it, for a mix of controlling body functions, conscious and subconscious, etc.
even on a day when someone will forget many things, and misspell many many words, that person will still be using hundred percent of their brain.
so it is not like there is a 90 percent dormant, waiting to be used.

the myth about we only use about 10% of our brain is NOT TRUE. We actually use all of our brain.
