Count every " F " in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTI
FIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS...

(SEE BELOW)




HOW MANY?






































































WRONG, THERE ARE 6-- no joke.



Really, go Back and Try to find the 6 F's before you scroll down.


The reasoning behind is further down.




The brain cannot process "OF".




Incredible or what? Go back and look again!!

Anyone who counts all 6 "F's" on the first go is a genius.






Three is normal, four is quite rare.

Send this to your friends.
It will drive them crazy.!
And keep them occupied
For several minutes..!

According to this nonsense, I'm a genius. Further proof is needed, however.

See if it works on some low level English Koreans. Since they are not native speakers they concentrate a bit harder, I think. Just an idea to occupy your day.

The "f" in "of" sounds like a "v." Your brain is searching for the "f" sound.
