How observant are you?

July 13th 2010 22:40
First watch the video and take the test. It's short, only about a minute and a half. Don't read ahead until you take it.



Ok, did you take it? No? Then stop reading and go take it.


This was part of an 1999 study called The Invisible Gorilla showing just how little people actually observe what is going on around them. It's called inattentional blindness. Scholarpedia describes it as a failure to notice a fully-visible, but unexpected object because attention was engaged on another task, event, or object.

So, now your sure if your shown another video you will notice all the things that are going on. Watch the following video and see if your right.
