I shared this with Ice the other day and I felt everyone should give this a view. Sometimes you're not really paying attention, even though you are.
How much do YOU pay attention?

Re: How much do YOU pay attention?
good vid man
I saw a few videos with this guy in my perception lectures. amazing stuff, and crazy how easily your attention can be drawn away and you can't even notice things that are right in front of you.
they also showed us this video from a attention study about 15 years ago. Pretty good test to show this in practice, some guys may have seen it already as it is quite old.
