Here is something interesting....

Christopher Balgobin, MD, Fairview Cedar Ridge Clinic, responded to a WCCO-TV Good Question segment about why we get goose bumps. He explained that it’s a nervous system reaction to cold or fright. A burst of adrenaline provokes muscles around our pores to clench, which pushes a tiny amount of skin out, hence the goose bump.
