They were trying to determine brain function as I was out for 9 minutes. I had the one in the video also. Drawing lines was the hardest since I had shakes from breathing treatments. They ran a number of video interactive tests to determine brain function and responses and reaction time. A lot of those were for driving. I can say they were shocked about reaction time, that it was well above the normal range. It was old muscle memory, from 40+ yrs of firearm qualifications hand/eye coordination exercises.

The naming animals is a PIA a minute is a long time. Start with domesticated and barn yard ones first.
