Left Brain, Right Brain Magic TrickAllright here’s what I want you to do - while sitting at your desk, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles. Now, while doing this, draw the number “6″ in the air with your right hand.
Your foot will change direction and there’s nothing you can do about it!

    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!

  8. Zack says:

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

  11. Naomi says:

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

  12. robstar says:

    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.

  14. JK says:

    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.

    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.

  22. Anonymous says:

    i did it its not that hard you just have to think about it first and do the zero of the six first and do the six backwards

  23. Sam says:

    I forced my foot to continue turning clockwise, but my foot messed up and I twisted my hip trying!

  24. buhamie442 says:

    Seriously – how do you do that? I didn’t even concentrate – I as reading a book and a got a friend to look and she said that it didn’t work on me!

  25. beastly says:

  26. Anonymous says:

  27. Anonymous says:

    I agree, just concentrate

  29. Lia says:

    um… it didn’t change directions…
    I didn’t need to concentrate or anything, it just didn’t change…. guess my brain is messed up ^-^

  30. Erik says:

    Yeah, I’m able to do it easily… I don’t even have to concentrate.

  31. Dusa says:

    Oh dear, I cant both! My foot just starts swinging backwards and forwards before kicking my desk… tried it 4 times… What is wrong with me!?

  32. Anonymous says:

    At first it worked but then I concentrated and I could do both! But it’s a lot of fun to try!

  34. Numerology says:

    for all those who said it doesnt work……probably cos they consider themselves VERY clever! They all talk sh1t. Fact: people who think with the right hand side of their brain ALWAYS think they are right!!!!

  35. the technogirl says:

    I am ambidexterous. I can rub my belly and pat my head at the same time. I can writr a 6 with my right hand, and turn clockwise circles. also with left side, counterclockwise! Does being amidexterous have to do with it?
