Annoying exercise

Post by Frydrych »

Here's an exercise that will drive you crazy

While sitting at the table do the following:
1. Take a pencil and sheet of paper
2. Lift your right foot over the floor
3. Start doing clockwise circles with your leg
4. While doing those circles write "6" on the paper.

Has your leg changed the direction?

I have done this and other things like it in some whacked out science class. It is pretty easy to master.

It's a nice trick, though.

great trick, have you ever seen the trick where you hold up a sheet of paper with a dot on it, look straight forward, as you raise the sheet of paper see if you can make the black dot dissapear.

Your eyes have a blind spot, and you brain makes up for the error by collection information about the surrounding area and fills in the void.

Another variation is instead of writing six on paper, you try to do it in the air with your finger.
