Default How smart is Your Right Foot?

Just try this. This will boggle your mind and you will keep trying over and over again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but, you can't. It's preprogrammed in your brain!

1. WITHOUT anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY......) and while sitting where you are at your desk in front of your computer, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number '6' in the air with your right hand.

Your foot will change direction. I told you so!!! And there's nothing you can do about it!



so silly but, it's true.

You and I both know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try it again, if you've not already done so.

Yep, I tried it...and least I'm in the confines of my home. Same thing happened, so I made my daughter do it (she's so much smarter than Mom) Her's changed directions too.
