Intuition is a junk concept, like "techno music" or "hypocondriac". Can mean so many different things to so many people.
There are many forms of intuition. Simplified.
-
Silent (subconscious) previously (implicitly) learned knowledge that comes about by human (automatic) pattern-recognition, esp. under situations of rapid decision making, stress and/or extreme relaxation. Nothing more than "I got exposed to pattern X unknowingly before several times, I subconsciously learned it without trying and next time I subconsciously recognized it and the "solution" came to my mind effortlessly." This is what 99% of psychologists think that ALL of intuition is (and nothing more). Boy are they wrong.
-
"External knowing" or "knowledge transfer" from another source beyond your own (knowledge base, incl. your subconcsious). This is more magical, more esoteric, more woo-woo to some, but has been scientifically and experimentally studied for well over a hundred years. It is real, the problem is mainly that it's accuracy in general un- or semi-trained individual is a bit spotty and sometimes the "answers" or "solutions" that come via this method are often visual images, feelings, sensations or non-verbal information of other forms (very rarely are they pure emotions, that is something totally different). This is what good tested clairvoyants, remote viewers, even good mediums use. THeir sources are just different and their methods to tapping to such varying sources are different from each other. Still, the same category.
- "Direct universal knowing". You have access to an infinite field of answers beyond time and space, with no discernable/nameable source and the answers are clear, lucid, correct and on point. This to me, is the rarest and purest form of intuition, just pure, direct knowing, without interim steps of "seeing", "deciphering", "interpreting" or "judging". You just know. Usually the domain of only highly trained esotericist and even to most of them, these are rare moments of certain kind of state of consciousness during which direct knowing can be achieved. So, it's fleeting, hard to enter into at will and takes decades of practise (for most). And even to the best, the exact future events seem to probabilistic fuzz : sometimes you get a good hit, mostly not.
As for the clip, yes I've been there, but for me it was fleeting moments and when I became aware of that ("Oh, did I just do that!") it immediately fell apart.
For me, it was mostly about category 1 intuition, just thousands of hours of honed geometric lines, pixel positions and motoric movements being subconsciously coded into me.
As for the stories of Joe McMoneagle in Vietnam, they are classic type 2 intuition. And he has trained that skill much further and much more controllable since.
Type 3? I've yet to personally meet such a person, but I know personally a few who've been in the presence of such persons doing such feats (and for these people, I do take their word for it, unless proven otherwise).
So there, now you know more about intuition than 99% psychologists or dumb-downers of the world will ever want you to know.
Keep climbing the latter, mostly discard the 1, and concentrate on 2 and 3. Tools: self-discovery, sensory silence, meditation, attention/intention/will/focus control practices, creative imagination (yes, you need to separate the stages of your mind and recognize your imagination output from your intuition output) and good old basic surrender to the unkown/infinite (the hardest of it all).
Onwards!
Addendum: "low latent inhibition" (not latency, btw)? Lol! Even a first year psych student with half a brain could deduce with a counter-example not all (or most, or most interesting parts of) intuition is that. Take any of the replicated retrocausal imagery reaction experiments (yes, several successful replications of this). Those that matter, not mere loose pattern recognition at subconscious level.
