    Default 2% or 98%

    Are you in the 2% or 98% of the population?
    * Just follow these instructions, and answer the questions one at a time and as quickly as you can!





    Think of a number from 1 to 10





    Multiply that number by 9





    If the number is a 2-digit number, add the digits together





    Now subtract 5





    Determine which letter in the alphabet corresponds to the number you ended up with (example: 1=a, 2=b, 3=c,etc.)





    Think of a country that starts with that letter.





    Remember the last letter of the name of that country.
    Think of the name of an animal that starts with that letter.





    Remember the last letter in the name of that animal.
    Think of the name of a fruit that starts with that letter.




    Done?

    Are you thinking of a Kangaroo in Denmark eating an Orange?

    98% of people will answer with kangaroos in Denmark when given this exercise.

    I would think that this is due to the adding the two digits then subtracting 5 will always result in 4-D. This being the letter of a country name, a well known country- Denmark, think of an animal beginning with k- kangaroo many Australians will think this first, then o for orange. I didnt think kangaroo, I went koala. Thats pretty cool though.

    Following the rules in the first post, that should be an ant eater in Ethiopia eating a Romato
    The very existance of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves, 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to do it.

    This one worked better for me...




    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 ever 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?

    WTF??
    I can see how mine leads you into thinking of the same answer, as you *should* always end up with four.

    But that second one I dont understand. I thought of a red hammer too
