lol. that's screwed up.

Didn't work. Granted, it took some concentration, but I could do both.

Yeah It didnt work on me either but i did have to focus.

Hey, I think that's my hoof.

By the way, you've ruined my life with this lil' trick.

Fanny

it did not work 4 mua

what happens when a friend or a machine continues moving your foot in clockwise circles, cant you paint the 6 then?

this is like the pat your head rub your stomach trick. it only works if you don't realize what is going to happen. ask someone else to do it and after they have for a while ask them which direction their foot is going.

didn't work at all. I didn't even really think about it. lame.

Sitting makes it easier becuase you don't haveto worry about falling. This gives your brain one less thing to think about and allows you to accomplish this feat with a little concentration.

if you start at the top of the six it's very hard to keep your foot going in clockwise circles. but if you start in the middle of the six (as many left-handed people do) it is very easy.

It worked on me and most people I told it to. Very weird.

Ummm, this may sound freaky..but I did it..and I really didnt think about it...what now? And I thought I wasnt smart...lol..well bye

I could do it too after a minute though the first time the foot did change direction. lol. Amusing!

Ok I didn't even know my foot changed direction 'till I looked down!Creepy man.

Eh?
fisrt time ive done it... nuthin happened! :) i guess i have a deformed brain.. or im better than you guys or the person that made this up :D jk

I tried it on my family and no one could do it!! We all moved our foots the other way... we had a good laugh.. But Ben helped me out. It is easier if you do your sixes backwards... do the circle followed by the tail. Thanks BEN!!!! 6

I think a cop made me do this once :)

I can do rotate all four of my limbs independantly. Perhaps it has something to do with being a drummer, and being able to control all of my limbs independantly anyway. Still, neat stuff.

that was so easy then again when im bored i just automaticaly try doing allsorts of stuff like that

this was weird. i did wit ma right foot and it work and then i tried wit ma left and it worked. on right and left i did counter~clock~wise and it went clock~wise!!!!!!!! lol!!!!!!!!!!!

I did it and it worked....dunno if it has somthing to do with being 12 (younger than most people who tried) anyway thx for the laughs...this whole site Rocks!

Its much much harder, if insted of making a circle with the right foot you try to make an 8!

Reyn, your 12? I'm one year younger than you, and you think it's hard! :)

piece of cake! multi-tasking is my middle name!lol!

its cool and interesting it was hard for me but i got it after a few minutes of hard trying

whoa

o_o

im 11 and i did first time...

At first i tried and could not do it. So I thought about how to trick myself into doing it for a second. If you start at the top of the circle vs the top point of the 6 both your hand and foot are going in the same direction.

Damn! I got caught with this one, well done illusion website you have impressed me! ;)

OMFG!!!!!
I DID IT I DID IT OMFG I DID IT!!!!!!!!!
400 tries it took but i fkn did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fantastic - great site, thanks for the laughs!!!

ok... if you draw the 6 backwards... you've totally defeated the purpose of this test... the point is - its difficult to rotate your right arm and right leg in opposite directions to each other... if you're gonna try drawing the 6 backwards, then you should be turning your foot anti-clockwise.

... btw after a couple of tries i still couldn't do it... LOL!

I did it easily and nothing changed it's direction.

sorry farted

my foot moved clockwise while I was doing the 6 in the air!!

i can do it on second go, but wobbly, try starting the 6 backwards not from the tip but from the end of the circle bit, u can do it then

im 13 and i did it the second time but cudnt do it after that, lol. damn, i CAN do it ;P

ok don it 1s more and CANT DO IT AGAIN DAMMIT,
ps. 4 those of u who inquire about my gender,
im a girl

i'm 13 too and i didn't make it! =P i know another one like this:lift your left foot and make clockwise circles,than try to draw the number "8" with your right hand.try it =) if someone makes it:wooow man!you're the best!no one i know has made it!

HAH! I CAN DO BOTH EASY AS!!! IT DOESN'T TURN IN OTHER WAYS DUH! lol

My foot did change direction. Maybe it would have been different if you didn't tell me it was going to happen...

i find these SO easy....but amy e thats cuz me and my friends practice this stuff for fun....I;m 13 too

its easy!!! i did it like on a lot of other sites, never made a mistake or anything...

hi everyone!
im a girl and i have no boyfriend but a girlfriend!! and im like soooo happy because we're going to "see" each other later! i cant wait!

im right handed and i write my 6's from the centre clockwise. it was easy

Fun lol,
Are there dutch people anyway?

THAT IS SO COOL!

that's creepish!! i do it!! i can't help my self!!!

Awwwwwwsome!!!!

It really works

Very cool

i was able to rotate my foot clockwise and make 6's. 1st try. not that terribly difficult. it takes a bit of concentration though.

Disappointing for me :( ...

Did it 1st try, wasn't even thinking about it lol. After thinking about it and trying again it was actually harder... hehehe

I can do it.

I did that to my friend and she was still able to draw a six while turning her foot!!!!! WAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

Omg, it's easy to do. But it requiers consentration

This stupid test almost sprained my freking ankle.

so very nice

No Foot Turn Clokwise ( dumb foot!)!!!!!!!!!

what if you start your sixes in the middle? then it works just fine!

Weird... I can do both, but not without thinking about it.

it no work, one i know is extend your 4fingers and try to spin in opposit directions

i have done that before.

Doesn't work for drummers. Try doing opposite circles with each foot and then darwing a 9 and a 6 in the air. That'll give you something 2 think about.

omg thats wierd...

AAAAH!!!

any phisical illusion can be beaten with consentration

this one is no diffrent

iv known how 2 do that since i was 3

EASY!!!!!!!!!!! COULD DO IT FIRST TIME

My foot didn't turn counter-clockwise. I made a backwards 6!

it's easy! i did it!

thats cheap magic i did it and i helped my self ( @$$3$)

I found that if I simply made a counter clockwise circle, I could maintain my foot in a clockwise motion. But if I was positive to make a 6 with my hand my foot would change.

that did not work


maybe its because im a lefty and always use my left side of my brain

i also am ambidextrious

To Anomynous

i'm an lefty and it worked for me, so cool

Bad foot! It worked for me about 2 times out of 6. But then again, I knew what was coming.

Um, I tried it and it didn't really work on me.....

r u guys sure u did it???
did u do it with ur left hand by mistake
i used mi left hand nd thought i did it but *sigh* i didnt

i can do it because i draw my sixes the wrong way round

so easy!!!

I tried this and I can go the same way! that is a waste of every bodys time... wait a second...I got it! The optical illution is that its wasteing our time! Never mingd thats retarted. ( I think I just had a conversation with my self ) - mrahahaha

Umm... I Can Do It. So Don't Say i Can't.

Uh... That's actually really easy for me... I did it right the first time... It's a little harder when you stand up, but if your not retarded I can't see how you would have a problem with it.. Sorry

Nobody can do it!! You guys just thought you did and don't understand what time-sharing system is.

It didn't work for me, instead, my right foot started to crack with each turn like i've got arthiritis or summat. is that suppose to happen as well

I had no problem doing that. What does that mean?

dis tric iz preti crap coz i cud do it nd so cud all me m8s

holli

i can do bote at the same time i dont know if it makes any difference but im left handed?

I draw my 6's clockwise. startin on the inside and looping out. so this didnt affect me at all. lol.

yo u dnt hve 2 do a 6 just mke a crcl n it wrks fne

yeah, this was really easy

WTF, i can do that without concentrating

Nice! Very cool!!! Hahahaha!

It worked! Another trick is to rub your tummy in circles with one hand, the other tap your head. It's sort of hard, but you'll get used to it, depending about your health. (I think.)

I tried to not think about the foot and see if it would happen, but it kept going the right direction the entire time and I wasn't thinking about it. But, then again, I'm a bit weird.

it didn't work at first.... then i realised that i was going the wrong way to begin with.... i'm gonna have hours of fun now...... :P

Hey Reyn (comment 21)im only 9 and i excpect many more younger people on this site

too bad it didn't work

wow! it worked for me! that's crazy! It made my foot change directions even when I prepared my brain and hand to shape the 6!

dunno if someone already said this but all you have to do is draw the six backwards

yer i cando it proper boss XD am i messed up? lol

wow, I can do it without changing direction!

HUH?
how is it suppose to work? never mind, didnt work

I've done something like this before, only instead we were supposed to make a sideways figure 8 (or infinity sign) rther than a 6.

this didn't work for me.

it worked for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

It worked for the first 2 times, and after that I was able to do it without focusing

the first 2 times worked, after that I could do it without focusing.

I can do it! ok it took a bit of concentration but i did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i teistd and turned, i trid and trid again.........

but i still couldn't get my foot to change direction. that is the crappest optical illusion ive ever seen!!!

I dont get it, a kid in class was telling me about this, and i just did it, i dont get what is so hard... i can even do figure eights and go counter clockwise with my right hadn while my right foot is going clockwise... i was told that it was physically impossible... but i dont get it its so simple...

wowww that was fun.
it didn't work for me at first, at all, because i make my 6's starting in the circle and going up, aka counterclockwise. but after i remembered that most people start at the top, i tried that and it TOTALLY worked. whoo. that was crazy!

haha yeah, I was able to break it, I did it,

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh someone call a doctor!!!!!!

Didn't work. Just... didn't. Got it on my first try.

Whoa! That's creepy! I tried as hard as I could to make my foot not turn but it made my head hurt...

you can cheat by simply starting from where you would normally end a 6....that way your strokes a rea clockwise and coincide with you foot movement

it should say draw an "8" with your right finger.

You can do it if you draw the six in a clockwise spiral-like way.
@ Anonymous: the way you draw your 6's, from the circle, that way I was able to do it easier. Is there something wrong with me?

This exercize seems to be exactly like rubbing your stomach in circles and patting your head at the same time, except I can do that first try.

Ehh...it didn't work. Before I read it I could still do it without cheating.

I already new that. There is another one that if you stand in a door way, put your arms down at your side then press them against the door way with your palm side down as hard as you can. Then after 30 seconds take your arms down and they should rise without you doing anything!! Try it it is really weird.

I can do it!! hahaha I beat the trick!! YAY

i can do it but i have to focus x-x

Excellent, it worked with me! It is due to the activation of an ancient survival instinct, that was important for the jumping among the trees of our monkey predecessors.

yes you can, all you have to do is draw the six backwards no matter what order the combo is ( right foot, left hand: left foot, right hand ) It works all ways.
