I can't sleep and came across this. Please try it.

So, lift your right foot up while sitting/lying down and make clockwise circles.

At the same time draw the number 6 in the air with your right hand.

Your foot has changed direction automatically.

No it hasn’t

Culldesack · 01/09/2022 00:45

Oh bloody hell! How strange. I also started drawing the 6 backwards !

LocalHobo · 01/09/2022 00:46

Oh yes! How strange.

Culldesack · 01/09/2022 00:47

Reminds me of the stomach rubbing, head patting. Can never do that one either.

Sorcery. Also, this will be my new party trick. Ta!

DramaAlpaca · 01/09/2022 01:05

Are you sure you know what clockwise is?

Josette77 · 01/09/2022 01:18

Mine didn't cbange either.

Mine didn't cbange either.

My son's didn't but turns out he was doing it anti-clockwise 🤣

HebeSunshine · 01/09/2022 01:21

It does, it changes direction 😆

Poppins2016 · 01/09/2022 01:23

Mine changed automatically when I was doing it at a decent speed. If I slow down and concentrate I can manage to keep going in opposite directions!

Dibbydoos · 01/09/2022 01:26

😝 I can't sleep, that made me laugh.

Any tips on getting some shots eye???

Assuming you mean shut eye...

Step 1: remove electronic devices/get off MN

Step 2: shut eyes...

(Well, you did ask... 😁😇😴)

m00rfarm · 01/09/2022 01:57

I can do it easily at normal speed.

HarrietSchulenberg · 01/09/2022 02:02

Mine did!
Now, splay your toes. Did your fingers splay too? It's a common complementary reaction, apparently.

WanderingFruitWonderer · 01/09/2022 05:30

Oh my word! Yes, I've tried it a few times now, and it changes every time! That's wild!

eldora · 01/09/2022 05:35

I couldn’t draw the 6!

My fingers didn’t splay when I splayed my toes though.

Sparklfairy · 01/09/2022 06:22

I'm left handed so automatically drew the 6 with my left hand and it worked fine. When I used my right hand there was some serious conflict going on, hand and brain fighting each other Grin

PremiumPiglet · 01/09/2022 08:13

Depends where you start your 6
