At the end of this message, you are asked a question.
Answer it immediately. Don't stop and think about it.
say the first thing that pops into your mind.


This is a test.
Give it a try, then post here if you are among the 98% or the 2%.
You'll understand what that means after you finish taking the test.

Now - just follow the instructions as quickly as possible.

DO NOT go to the next calculation before you have finished the previous one..

You DO NOT need to write or remember the answers, just do it using your mind.

You'll be surprised.

Start:
How much is: 15 + 6













3 + 56















89 + 2


















12 + 53
















75 + 26

















25 + 52

















63 + 32















I know! Calculations are hard work, but it's nearly over. . .
Come on, one more! ...
















123 + 5


















QUICK! THINK ABOUT A COLOR AND A TOOL!
















Scroll further to the bottom...









A bit more...

















You just thought about a red hammer , didn't you?


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


98% of the folks would answer a red hammer while doing this exercise.

I was more inclined to to think about a orange rake- Maybe cause theres a assload of leaves i need to take care of.....red hammer though? SOunds more like a subliminal trick to make you think you though about that- so i guess the 2% must be non-gullable people

I was thinking about the GREEN hitachi HAMMER drill my dad just bought... so far we're all a little abnormal! :-)

Do you know why 98% of people would have thought about a red hammer after doing simple math? Its an interesting test though...
