ALZHEIMER'S EYE TEST


Count every " F" in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC 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.

Send this to your friends.
It will drive them crazy.!
And keep them occupied
For several minutes..!

1. I ain't no genius, but I got 6 the first time out.....

*whew*

2. I think that when it's in color, we are likely to rely on our

eyes to find the "F"s. When it's all in black and white, we may be singling them out by sound. A thought, because that's how I got all six.

5. For me, the key was focusing on letters, not words.

A left to right scan without reading the sentence. I'm good a word search puzzles, so I guess it's second nature.

3. I see 4 Fs and don't have time to look at this so where's the other two?

Interesting though.

4. The F that was hardest to spot for me is a piece of bitter irony.

The one in "scientific." really.

6. I went through it three times

I found four the first time and five the other two. Then I looked at the answer.
