Count the "F's" in the following text:



FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...







(see below)



Managed it ?

Scroll down only after you have counted them, okay?











Do you think there are three?











How many ? 3?

Wrong, there are 6--no joke.

Read it again.

The reasoning behind it 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.

    Got all 6. But, that's to be expected...

    Actually, I cheated. I knew it was a test, so instead of listening to the words as I read the sentence, I looked for the physical form of the letter, ignoring what words were being used.
    There's a thin line between genius and stupid.
