This is a very cool mind game

[UncleKyle]

Try this out, only takes 10 seconds. This one shocked me. Way too cool.


MIND GAME


2% or 98%

This is strange...can you figure it out?

Are you the 2% or 98% of the population?

Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD!

* Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow.

* There's no trick or surprise.

* Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can!
* Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until you've done each of them .. really. * Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something).





Think of a number from 1 to 10











Multiply that number by 9















If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together













Now subtract 5







Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you ended up with

(example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c,etc.)










Think of a country that starts with that letter









Remember the last letter of the name of that country






Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter








Remember the last letter in the name of that animal







Think of the name of a fruit that starts with that letter
















Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange?





I told you this was FREAKY!! If not, you're among the 2% of the population whose minds are different enough to think of something else. 98% of people will answer with kangaroos in Denmark when given this exercise.

Im part of the 2%

 

[oogieboogie]

I know how it works, and yes I'm in the 98% of people since I can't think of any other country that starts with D other than Denmark.

 

[Rajah]

Why is that???

I did have a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange.

The math will always set you up to have a country that starts with D.

How many D countries are there? Can anyone think of one *besides* Denmark?

Let's see... how many K animals are there that are common? The only two I can think of are Kangaroo and Koala.

And O fruit?

Me and DD are both part of the 2% we both picked the Dominican Rebublic for our country.

Mine: Cow in Dominican Rebublic eating Watermelon
DD's: Cat in Dominican Rebublic eatoing Tangerines

Edited: My dd posted this under my username and it should have read "My dd and I are both part of the 2%.....etc"

School can't start soon enough- that's my honor student!

I just realized I can't add without my calculator and my country should have started with a D. Oh well!!!!!!!!

 

[Phrebert]

How did people end with 3=c? You cant

 

[minniepumpernickel]

I got Denmark, Kangaroo, and orange.

I hate getting lumped in with the majority.

 

[Miss Jasmine]

Kitten in Denmark eating a nectarine

Me too.

 

[hipporina]

I also had a cow in the Dominican Republic eating a watermelon. How weird that several of us would get identical "uncommon" answers.
