Try this out... Read this sentence:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.







Now count the F's in that sentence.
Count only once, don't go back a 2nd time. Scroll down for the answer.























Answer:

There are 6 F's in the sentance, a person of average intelligence finds 3 of them. If you spotted four your above average.

Before you look at the explanation , feel free to go back and count again , there really are six in there. Give up?

If you caught six then you are a genius. There is no catch. Many people forget the OF's.

The human brain tends to see them as V's and not F's.
Pretty weird , huh.

Not that hard. Also, things just like this (but with difference sentences) have been posted here before (more than once).

I wasn't ranking on your topic, I think it's cool, and I love the logic behind it..
