Cool mind trick!

HOLY CRAP! THAT'S PHENOMINAL! A RED HAMMER! I was like "Ooooh I dunno.... a wrench NO hammer... and um... red." *scroll* RED HAMMER?!?

Yeah, when it actually does work for someone it really shocks them, especially if you do it to them in person (write Red Hammer on a piece of paper, fold it, and have them put it in their pocket).

Silver spanner.

 

[Erik Mesoy]

Red screwdriver. This thing sucks.

 

[Ciceronian]

!I actually thought of a red hammer! I was quite amazed.
Although it doesn't seem like 98% of people are getting the same as me!

 

[Ville]

Black Axe

 

[SuperBeaverInc.]

Blue Hammer

 

[Specialist290]

Spoiler :

Brown hammer. I guess I'm just a little abnormal

 

[Strider]

I must be really abnormal, first thing I thought of was a blue garden hoe.

 

[allhailIndia]

Red hammer.......Whoa..that was freaky...

 

[JoeM]

Got a blue hammer!

ditto.

Isn't this really just playing on the likely choice of hammer as a tool and red as a colour. Of course the claimed statistic of 98% couldn't be right.

 

[Megabyte]

Hi!

I´m abnormal, got a green screwdriver.....

 

[The Omega]

Didn't work for me. Soon as I saw the "Quick! Think of a tool and color!" The only thing I could think of was: "What the.... What kind of test is this? What idiot would make something like this? All that math just to think of a tool and color? Etc."

 

[FearlessLeader2]

red screwdriver...close

 

[Simo]

I tried that just then twice and I didnt work for anyone!!! I looked stupid!

It worked on me, I wonder how it works??

If I were to try it on people, I'd choose something a bit more guaranteed to work:


How much is: 15+6

3+56

89+2

12+53

75+26

25+52

63+32

I know! Calculations are hard work but this is the real thing!

Come on, a few more.

123+5


QUICK! THINK ABOUT AN ILLINOIS UNIVERSTIY WITH IVY-LEAGUE PRESTIGE AND A COLOR THAT ENDS IN "URPLE"!


Scroll further to the bottom....

A bit more....

Just a little further......

You have just thought about a purple University of Chicago, didn't you?

If this is not the case, you are among 2% of the people who have a "different," if not "abnormal," mind.

98% of the folks would answer a "purple University of Chicago" while doing this exercise. If you do not believe this, pass it around and you'll see.
Freaky huh?

[YNCS]

I got Northwestern University and I couldn't think of any colors that end in "urple." Unless "dunmossurple" is a color.

 

[Tomoyo]

I probably would have gotten Northwestern as well.

Darn it, I forgot about Northwestern!

Oh well.
