Mind Trick

This is kinda interesting.

At the end of this message, you are asked a question.

Answer it immediately. Don't stop and think about it.

Just say the first thing that pops into your mind.

This is a fun "test"... AND kind of spooky at the same time! Be sure to
leave a comment saying if you are among the 98% or the 2%. You'll
understand what that means after you finish taking the "test."

I was in the 98%. Pretty crazy how it works.

Now - just follow the instructions as quickly as possible.

Do not go to the next calculation before you have finished the
previous one. Keep scrolling down after each answer until further instructions.

You do not ever need to write or remember the answers, just do it
using your mind.

You'll be surprised.


Start:

How much is:
15 + 6



































3 + 56





































89 + 2



































12 + 53















































75 + 26














































25 + 52







































63 + 32










































I know! Calculations are hard work, but it's! nearly over..


Come on, one more! ...





























123 + 5














































































QUICK! THINK ABOUT A COLOR AND A TOOL!










































Scroll further to the bottom....












































A bit more...














































You just thought about a red hammer, didn't you?



If this is not your answer, you are among 2% of people who have a
different, if not abnormal, mind.

98% of the folks would answer a red hammer while doing this exercise.

Crazy huh? Don't forget to leave a comment saying what group you were in. It should be fun to see how many people are in each group. It makes me wonder if the numbers actually influence you, or if people would say red hammer most of the time they were asked for a color and a tool regardless.

*Edit: Ok, so this is mostly a bunch of crap with a little grounding in reality thrown in. For good scientific examination of it, check here. Sorry.

I thought of an orange hammer

2% I thought of a blue hammer

Brett: Yeah, did you read my *Edit? It's pretty much bogus. More people say red hammer than any other combo and a very large percentage say either red or hammer, but it's nothing like the 98% vs. 2% my original source claimed. Sorry.
