In this little movie, a bunch of kids will be throwing two basketballs around. Watch the movie, and try as good as you can to count how many times they pass the balls to each other. Then, come back and read the answer...

Spoiler:
The amount of times the kids throw the balls around doesn't matter, the real question is, did you notice the gorilla? No? Go back and watch the movie again, this time, just watch it without trying to count passes. Now, do you see the gorilla?

Yeah I noticed it the first time...

But I looked at your spoiler tag before watching it, so that may have something to do with it

Of course it had something to do with it, if you look at the spoiler tag the first time, you ruin the whole test.

I also noticed the gorilla the first time as well. But, at the time, I was thinking:

18...19...Gorilla? WTF?....20...21...

Um... I DIDN'T read your spoiler because I figured it was the solution to some puzzle, and I still noticed the bastard... Honestly... how could you not?


My perception must be ok enough for whoever made this movie.

Hm, that's odd. Acmlm's board must be filled with rather exceptional people. Scientists used that movie for a test, and only about half of all who took the test noticed the gorilla.

Spoiler:
Who did they test? Gorillas? Yeah, I noticed it too, without reading the spoiler... Nice little thing, but I don't see why people wouldn't spot the gorilla... Oh well. On the subject of the basketballs, I think they passed it about... 31 times? Not sure about that though, I'd need to watch it a bunch of times to check.


Edit: Fixed spoiler tag. -N

I saw him too. And yep, it's kind of hard not to notice. I was in the middle of counting and I'm like "wtf? gorrila?". I thought they purposely did that to throw you off counting.

Yea, I think change blindness tasks work best when you have a large picture, and hence you can't scan the whole thing at once... maybe I should find a better one.

and I think I missed the gorilla, but I'm not sure, since it was a while ago.


And I believe you're supposed to count the number of passes by kids in white shirts, not overall, if that changes anything.

that's fucking stupid, of course I noticed it

but the Gorrilla becomes irrelevant if you are told to count passes.... that's like saying

how much money do you make a week at your job.....

OHH WHO CARES IT'S IRRELEVANT, THE REAL QUESTION IS IF YOU SAW THE PUPPY DOG GET RUN OVER BY A TRUCK......

this is quite possibly the stupidest thing I've seen all day

which is saying alot since I've been in #acmlm for hours
