Test Your Brain

This is really cool. The second one is amazing so please read all the way though.

ALZHEIMERS' EYE TEST

Count every 'F' in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI
FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...

(SEE BELOW)

HOW MANY?

WRONG, THERE ARE 6-- No joke.
READ IT AGAIN!
Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 F's before you scroll down.

The reasoning behind is further down.

The brain cannot process "OF."

Incredible or what? Go back and look again!

Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius.

Three is normal, four is quite rare.

I counted all 6 the first try, but I think it really has to do with how slowly and carefully you look for them, not your IQ.

It also has a lot to do with the fact that this test appears on a forum every month or so - the answer is known before counting (as is the reasoning)

I got four first go, having spotted one "of". Strangely, i missed the other two . . .

I haven't been called a genius for YEARS (although I have always known it...........).

I got all six, but I already knew the trick. Do I get to be a genius?
