That's funny! Even funnier is the picture of all the friends and co-workers I fowarded this to all sitting at their desks trying it right now...

If you make the 6 starting with the loop rather than the top your foot keeps going in the same direction. :>

LOL Marcia, only you would think of that ;)

I've heard of this before. It is strange how the mind works, isn't it??

I'm just a rebel at heart. LOL

Hmmm. I did it without a problem. Maybe it's because I'm lefthanded. I'll try it with my left foot: .........................................................................................................

I get it now. A bit more difficult, but still doable. Must be because I am also somewhat ambidextrous.

Rick, you smarty pants ;)

I'm ambidextrous too, but I couldn't do it, I guess that makes me dumb :P

Rick I'm a lefty too and I could do it... but then I realized I was using my left hand for the 6. Tried it with the right hand and I had to think so hard about how to make a 6 with my right hand that my foot stopped. LOL.

I think most lefties are a bit ambidextrous, we learn to be because the world is not made for us!

A related phenomenon?

Try writing something in mirror image using either hand alone. Then try it with a pen in each hand, writing normally with your dominant hand and mirror image with the other.

Is it supposed to be easy? Then it works for me!

Had to think a bit first before I started though.

It worked for me too. I thought there had to be a trick somewhere! LOL
