I Thought this might interest

Here's another trick of Doctor Dementia to test your skills....

I've seen this with the letters out of order, but this is the first time I've seen it with numbers. Good example of a Brain Study: If you can read this OUT LOUD, you have a strong mind. And better than that: Alzheimer's is a long, long way down the road before it ever gets anywhere near you.

To my 'selected' strong-minded friends: If you can read the following paragraph, forward it on to your friends with 'yes' in the subject line. Only strong, healthy minds can read this.

55 people out of 100 can read this rapidly.

I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd what I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in what oerdr the ltteres in a word are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is that the frsit and last ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can still raed it whotuit a pboerlm. This is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the word as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? Yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt!

If you can raed this, frowrad it.

Re: I Thought this might interest

I also didn't have trouble reading it after the first three words - I could actually feel my brain working it out and then off we went! Read it as normal almost.

I'm also fascinated by this and would love to know how it works. I've read a couple of explanations but they don't ring true somehow.
