This is quite unusual and innecplicable situation. Why does a person yawns when he or she sees another person yawns One day, i put a test to myself and see if I will definitely yawn if someone else will. Indeed it happened, I yawned back when I saw this person yawned. Weird thing is that I couldnt avoid doing it when I saw that person started yawning. In a matter of seconds I did yawn. Lol.

yah this is pretty amazingly unpopular. Most of us don't mind this theory but If you look deeply in it there is a substance that needs an explanation. Thanks.

Yah I do believe its natural and its not contagious at all. Explanatin just remains a mystery. Harmless but unexplainable. Thanks.

Perhaps this is part of our psychological aspect. I also yawn when i see someone's yawning, i've tried controlling not to but it's hard. Scientists must research on this. LOL
