Nope. My foot kept moving clockwise, no matter how I drew the 8.

i commend you men for being able to continue your foot in a clockwise motion. i nearly cut my foot off after trying this. i have never seen anything like it. no matter how hard or little i thought about it, my foot changed direction. it's almost like using CC fingerings (position equivalents) on my Bb bass trombone. :)

Freaky.
For those folk that didn't get it to work, try moving your right foot clockwise and draw a counter clockwise circle with your right hand.
Should work then.

Ah, that works. But I can still overcome it if I concentrate a bit.

I can do it, but I really have to concentrate. If my mind slips at all, my foot immediately switches direction.

I was one of the weirdos that could do similar things in grade school, too.

No problem. What's all the fuss. It's like riding a unicycle while playing Flight of the Bumblebee.

Be proud there is something wrong with you :twisted:

I don't have a problem doing it either - I think it has to do with which side of the brain is dominant and to what extent.
