I have no idea why this works, but it does. I just tried it.

While sitting on a chair, lift your right foot off the floor and make clockwise circles.
Then, while doing that, draw the number six with your right hand.
The direction of your foot will change.

did it work for you????

1. I experimented on my child

My seven-year-old daughter didn't think it was as cool as I thought it was.

2. It worked!

I suspect it's because your brain can't do opposite turning circles in that manner.

[HarveyDarkey]

3. depends on which way you "draw" the 6

Go around the circle to the right & up, no problem

6. DUzy!

[MrMickeysMom]

7. Didn't matter which hand, either

Huh!

[dixiegrrrrl]

8. Really?

Hmm...lemme see....

for me, it just now worked only when I used right hand to draw the 6.

But...it worked using either leg and opposite hand.

very interesting.

15. I didn't stop doing it in time.

Instead of "6" I wrote "666" and now there's a Republican in my living room.

16. I shoulda put a disclaimer in my post.

Here...wave this..that will make it leave...
