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.

ERG!
I ALMOST DID IT WITHOUT CHANGING :mad:

I don't think it does. The fact that you have the co-ordination to do it is the the effort and skill.

I had no problem with right foot and right hand, but my foot twitched a little hand and left foot.

right hand+ right foot = no prob
right hand+ left foot = no prob
left hand+ left foot = lag
left hand+ right foot = no prob

I'm ambidextrous, though, so my motor-skills are a little different. I can write with both hands and feet forwards and backwards and put sentences together (start left hand while right hand writes the end backwards and they meet in the middle)

This is a very simple demonstration of a very complex phenomenon occuring in the sensorimotor system. We did this in uni...... basically, some ppl have the ability to 'separate' different sensory and motor(muscle action) information streams that are travelling to/from the brain. Some ppl do have the ability to do it better naturally, however it is something which can be practised and learnt.....

Ok, now that we've all mastered it (except for Bob, :D, j/k), here's the new challenge:

Try sitting on your own lap.

Once that's done, try licking your ear.

Good luck, there's something to keep you guys amused. :D

I did it like first try...

too easy

Sitting in your lap: easy

licking your ear: easy



Here's a challenge: fit your entire BODY into your mouth!







Do you see yourself coming out of your own mouth? If so you performed the manuever correctly.

Very interesting.... i got it on the 4th try

and I have one cool body mystery trick

1:go to a door way and stand it the middle,
2:then open your arms from your side like an umbrella till the back of your hands press against the inside of the door way,
3: press Hard against the door way with the backs of your hands for about 10 seconds
4: then stop and step away from the door way and relaxe your arms, they should 'Magicly Rise'

My Grandpa taught me this when i was like 8 :D

Theres supposed to be a wierd chair trick only women can do...I don't remember exactly, but you have to pick up a chair from the top with the front of the seat against a wall.

Something about lifting with abdomenal muscles. Blah. I've done it.

I remember something where you place a chair up against a wall and you stand a distance from it and pick it up, only women can do it because it has something to do with men having big feet...
