Thread: How we miss things

Dont look at the bottom of this page until your done!!!


Try counting how many times the players pass the basketball, no one will get the right answer no matter what. So watch closely this is one of those psychological things and misperceptions. When you are done scroll down for the right answer. Dont peek down at the answer please. You will only ruin it for yourself.

I have seen that video before, at meeting for work. I didn't see the gorilla then, I forgot it was the same video and didn't see him this time either. Both times I had to rewatch.

What was the actual answer?

I saw the gorilla. How could you miss it? It's a freaking gorilla. I think it's possible to count the number of times the ball is passed and notice that one of the players is a gorilla at the same time (well, okay, maybe I lost count, but that's not the point! :lol

i got 22

That is cool. I had to rewatch too..

I counted 30. I don't even see where you can get the answer.

There are two basketballs, not one...too lazy to try and count right now...I will try later!

I counted 29, and saw the guerilla

I got 32 and saw the gorilla.
