Try this

ALZHEIMERS' EYE TEST


Count every " F" in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI
FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...

(SEE BELOW)




HOW MANY ?









WRONG, THERE ARE 6.
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".




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.

I've always been odd. I counted 5. Hmmm.

You know, I KNOW this one, I've seen it before, and I _still_ have to look very hard to find all of them!

Mmnn...Strange. Must ask genius son to try this (then I can laugh if he fails!)

I'm with Anne - I have seen this before but still have to look carefully :-)

I counted 6. But I'd seen something similar so I did look really hard.

I think that I'll try this on my 4 1/2 year old - see how many f's he counts. I'll get back to you...
