Eye test

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.

{Dj_Andrew_K} : I found three :/

I saw this same phrase just about 30 min ago... I first counted 5, I knew to watch out for the Ofs, but for some weird reason, I missed the F in Scientific.

Just thought of another one...

Spell Roast out loud (ie. R-O-A-S-T)

What do you put in a Toaster?

OMG THAT IS WEIRD!! I COUNTED 4...LOL WEIRD!
whered u get the source???

Posted by Andrew K on Jul-01-2002 10:03:

Well actually this test was about saying out loud the phrase and counting the "F"s. not just reading it letter-by-letter. this is considered cheating.

Posted by Cafster on Jul-01-2002 14:04:

some1 posted this last fall i believe. maybe it was on another forum though...i cant remember. i counted all 6 of them the first try last time though.

Posted by webmeister on Jul-01-2002 14:10:

Well I got all six. Damn I'm proud of myself.

And killdaDJ .. the idea is that you read it out loud, so when you read "of," your brain interprets that as "ov," so you don't think to count it b/c you're listening for the fffffffffffff sound, not the vvvvvvvvvvv sound.

Brains rock.

Posted by webmeister on Jul-01-2002 14:11:

haha just had another thought:
If reading the letters rather than saying them out loud is considered cheating, why is the thread called "Eye test" ??

Yeah this is really cool, we did this in psych... since OF is so common in the language your brain doesn't porcess it. and anyone who counts all six is not a genius! (that is a myth that was perpatreted in one of those annoying forwards) for example someone who is just learning english will count all six because they are not "used" to the language yet.

what do you know I acually applied something I learned in school!

Nevertheless it is cool sh*t!
