Quick Eye Exam...
This will blow your mind...!
Just do it - don't cheat!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try this its actually quite good.
But don't cheat!
Count the number of F's in the following text:
FINISHED FILES ARE THE
RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC
STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS


Managed it?
Scroll down only after you have counted them!















OK?



How many?

















Three?





















Wrong, there are six - no joke!



Read again!




FINISHED FILES ARE THE
RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC
STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS



The reasoning is further down...

The brain cannot process the word "OF".


Incredible or what?

Anyone who counts all six F's on the first go is a genius
Three is normal.






















I assume that worked! ;-) Strange thing is I counted just two....so I'm not normal :nervous:

    Six.

    Was this some kind of trick? How hard can it be to count six F's?

    I counted six first time - but then I counted it backwards starting at the end of the sentance. :thumb:

    I read it backwards cos it seemed the obvious thing to do, and there would be no disadvantage compared to reading it forwards. Actually, I got asked the same thing in my cambridge interview and gave the same answer i.e. I read it backwards

    What did they say to that? Sounds like the sort of twisted logic they like at Cambridge! ;)
