The brain is widely considered the softest part of the human body. It is composed of approximately 75% water and 60% fat, giving it a consistency similar to warm butter. This soft, delicate nature makes it easily deformable with the hands.
While other tissues, such as fat and muscle, are also soft, the brain's unique composition and vital role in our body makes it the most delicate and susceptible to damage. It's crucial to protect the brain from external forces and injuries.
