I found this one very interesting; at first, I though its was a joke and there is only one possible answer to the test's one question, but then everybody here at the office came up with different answers.

Apparently I'm a Left brain only kinda guy.

    Same here. Even the shadow follows that pattern.

    That is funky. When I first opened the link, I saw it turning counter-clockwise and I was thinking to myself - "How could anyone see it as clockwise?"

    Then I came back to this browser window to see what everyone else saw, saw the response from shack that it was clockwise, and flipped back .... and saw it turning as clockwise??? :confused:

    They are messing with us. I went back to the site and it is now counter-clockwise. Closed the site and went back and it was clockwise. Continued to watch for several min. and the dancer changed directions while I was watching.

    It's really counter clockwise for me unless I just follow the raised foot and assume it's going clockwise then the spinning flips.

    Definitely clockwise...
    I'm going back to try to see it the "other way".

    edit: I can't in any way, shape or form see it going counter clockwise.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    All right, I hosted the picture. It's going clockwise for me, how about for the rest of you, especially those who said counter-clockwise?

    I got it to switch after concentrating on the foot raised, but looked away and was back to counter clockwise..

    Absolutely positively clockwise for me everytime....no matter how many times opening the link on this laptop or any of my servers. Funny thing is, I call the wife over and ask her...she saw counter clockwise first....then clockwise...back and forth changing randomly. No wonder she can never make her mind up :)

    The trick is to turn off your monitor for a few seconds, stare at the blank screen, and then look at the picture again.

    Works for me.

    My wife and I were watching together....and I could not believe it when she told me it switched directions....I was trying SO hard to see it switch...never happened even when she said it did...and I never took my eyes off of it when she was saying it switched. Very cool to watch it with somebody.....

    Same here. Looked counter-clockwise at first, then started switching directions.

    Wierd, now all I see is her spinning clock-wise,
