Alzheimer's eye test

Test Your Brain
This is really cool.

Count every "F" in the following text:



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




HOW MANY 'F's?






Count them again.





READ IT AGAIN!


Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 'F's before you scroll down.


The reasoning behind this is further down.

The brain cannot process "OF".

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

Incredible or what? Anyone who counts all 6 'F's on the first go is a genius.


Three is normal, four is quite rare.

The brain cannot process "OF".

Geesh, I only got 3 and read it twice! So why on earth can't the brain process "of" ?
My brain was made in the USA.

 

[Pappy]

I got three on the first count. Put the dunce hat on me.

 

[Falcon]

I got 'em all, because, YEARS ago, when I was a kid, we used to challenge someone with the same
puzzle by counting the "Fs" in the message on the back of a pack of Camel cigarettes.

BTW...you don't count the Fs in the word OF because the F has the sound of the letter "V".

Dunno about the brain not processing ''Of'' I got 6 straight off without any problems..

Well if you read it twice then you do get 6...;-)

 

[AZ Jim]

Hate to brag but I got em all on the first pass.

 

[NancyNGA]

Ha! Ha! Doesn't make me feel any less brain challenged.

 

[Falcon]

When you think about it, the letter F has a bad rep. It begins a few nasty words that I seldom use.

 

[GeorgiaXplant]

I guess I'm doing Fine because I FoundalloF them on the First pass, too. Then I re-read it just to make sure I didn't miss any. Nope.

 

[Georgia Lady]

I saw 5. What does that mean?
