LOL!

You have to try this please, it takes 2 seconds. I could not believe this!!!
It is from an orthopedic surgeon................This will boggle your mind and it will keep you trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's pre-programmed in your brain!

1). Without anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY....) and while sitting 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! You and I both know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already done so.
My goal...

It only changes because you suggested that it changes - it's the power of suggestion, right?

Nope. I tried it before reading that my foot would change direction.

That's cool!

I tried it, even went back and read your post again to make sure I was doing as asked... It didn't change, but... When I visually looked at my foot while trying it, it did want to change directions... Weird.

I am betting you are ambidextrous. You are saying it didn't change directions right?

All I have to do is think about drawing a 6 and my foot changes..... :oops:

All I have to do is think about drawing a 6 [while swinging clockwise circles with me foot) and my foot changes...

Try counter clockwise circles with your left foot and do a number 9 with your left hand. :eyebrows:
