Try this.....

Just try this. It is from an orthopedic surgeon............

This will boggle your mind and you will keep trying over and over
again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's
preprogrammed In your brain!

1. While sitting where you are at your desk in front of your
computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your
right hand. your foot will change direction.

I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it! Before the
day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already
done so.

Send it to your buddies to frustrate them too. :wink:

Just to let you know, I CAN rotate my left foot clockwise and still draw a 6 with my right hand - but then all of you already knew I was a freak of nature

(how I do it is I strictly focus on my left foot doing the clockwise circle and just let my hand naturally draw the 6 - it just works for me)

I know this is about as far-removed from ISU sports as possible, and it reminds me of some of the exercises we used to do to pass time in 7th grade TAG class, but I thought this was kind of interesting:

The "normal" way to see the picture rotate is counter-clockwise. I personally saw it clockwise, and it took me a while to get it to go backwards. Anyone else?

clockwise here. man did I have a tough time seeing it counter clockwise but finally got it by focusing just on the feet at first. At first I was convinced no one could see that as counter clockwise. pretty weird.

When it first opened up I saw it CCW, within about 10 seconds I was able to change it to CW, and then after that I was able to switch it at will.

I saw this at work about a week ago, and it opened in IE. She moves a HELL of a lot faster in Firefox than she does in IE...

I have to admit... I only got 50% on that color test the first time. Second time was 100%.
