2% or 98%

This is strange...can you figure it out?

Are you the 2% or 98% of the population?

Follow the instructions! NO PEEKING AHEAD!

· Do the following exercise, guaranteed to raise
an eyebrow.
· There's no trick or surprise.
· Just follow these instructions, and answer the
questions one at a time and as quickly as you can!


· Again, as quickly as you can but don't advance
until you've done each of them ... really.

· Now, scroll down (but not too fast, you might
miss something.)

































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.
















































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





I told you this was FREAKY!! If not, you're among the
2% of the population whose minds are different enough
to think of something else. 98% of people will answer
with kangaroos in Denmark when given this exercise.
Keep this message going. This one is actually worth
sending on to others. Forward it to people you know
so they can find out if they are usual or unusual

Well, this is smart one, but doesn't say much! It just tells me how many people have heard about the countries named Dibotti, Dominica, or Dominican Republic. So, 99% (if not 100%) of the unusual 2% must belong from these three countries.

And even if you think of animal (bird) Kite, think of fruit starting with 'E'....so you would fall back on the kangaroo choice and thinking of the fruit name starting with 'O'.....

The freakiness defreaked!!!!!!!!!
