This is strange...can you figure it out?

Are you the 2% or 98% of the population?

Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD!

· Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise an eyebrow.
· There's no trick or surprise.
· Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a
time and as quickly as you can!

· Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance until you've done
eac! h of them ... really.

· Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might miss something.)

































Think of a number from 1 to 10














































Multiply that number by 9
















































If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together












































Now subtract 5















































Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you
ended up with

(example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c,etc.)













































Think of a country that starts with that letter.










































Remember the last letter of the name of that country.
















































Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter.
















































Remember the last letter in the name of that animal.















































Think of the name of a ! fruit that starts with that letter.
















































Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange?





I told you this was FREAKY!! If not, you're among the 2% of the
population whose minds are different enough to think of something
else. ! 98% of people will answer with kangaroos in Denmark when
given this exercise......... :mmm:
