How smart is Your Right Foot?
Just try this. It is from an orthopaedic surgeon............ 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. 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! 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. Send it to your buddies to frustrate them too.

Ok I've got it, you start the 6 from the middle part rather than the top

I can do it too, and not the way you guys described. I hadn't even thought of that.
The last time this went around I was sitting in an Emergency Ward late at night, and the staff were all sitting around trying to figure out why none of them could do it.

Rotate your foot clockwise for over a minute, and then try it. Works for me.
Cause, you know... I do it all the time and stuff.. :/
