Perceptual Blindness/Inattentional Blindness
 

There was a better video that I saw earlier, but youtube took it down. =(

Anyway, try your best to count how many times the white team passes the basketball. I've seen people get a bunch of different numbers but let's see what you guys come up with!

Pretty good eh? About 50% of the people miss it entirely. I know I did.


check out this video, he does it to people in public:

The project manager for the project I work for here at work showed this to me a couple of months ago. I didn't see it.

I've seen this before. I didn't see it either, I re-started the video and sure enough, it's there.

That second video is hilarious. What they should do next is have a hot girl start to give out her number to guy(s) and then switch with some really ugly girl and see how they take the number. Of course, they'd probably be a lot more observant which kind of defeats the purpose, but it'd still be funny.
