Hi everybody. I have a question about Star Trek. In the holodeck, with safety protocol activated, is it possible that people can actually feel real pain?

For example, if I climb a mountain in the holodeck, and I scratch my arm with a rock, I can actually feel the pain?

And my injury, once I finish the action in the holodeck, still remain or no?

thanks in advance for your help. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 188.218.84.140.

The safety protocols do not prevent a user from feeling pain, they only prevent serious injury and death. If you scratch your arm on the holodeck, unless your arm is a holographic arm, it will really be scratched. 31dot (talk) 22:53, August 20, 2013 (UTC)

So if my arm is real, I have the scratch also when I call the simulation off?
