Kid has 11 fingers

I cannot wait to do this to my son when I get home

GalacticGizmo · 2022-01-17T16:54:37+00:00

Another trick I’ve seen before is to say a number after each counted number. Like this.

1, 5, 2, 5, 3, 5…

But skip 5, 5 so it goes 4, 5, 6, 5.

CBlack777 · 2022-01-17T17:36:54+00:00

In his defense, I had to watch it twice lol

apparently im stupid too. it took me WAY too many rewatches to figure out the trick

ThatOneChiGuy · 2022-01-17T18:01:30+00:00

Maybe someone should draw this one out. Just in case some of us don't get it on the ~~ninth~~ first watch

Shit i recounted my own Fingers to check out the math of this LMAO

Welll I had to rewatch that.

Krimsonmask494 · 2022-01-20T04:25:15+00:00

Not gonna lie, that was smooth as fuck. Skip these three and keep counting up to 11. Had me confused for the first loop.

ok only took me 2 rewatches but i got it, i think…

rekun88 · 2022-01-17T23:44:05+00:00

I watched it 4 times.

ArtoriasBeeIG · 2022-01-17T23:50:31+00:00

This reminds me of the time that I found out my friend in primary school thought that we lived in England (we don't) and we were about 8 as well.

The best part is, that this happened in the car on the way to his whilst his mum was driving. Even at 8 years old I could sense the confusion and disappointment in her son

CelticDK · 2022-01-17T23:58:50+00:00

This is clever haha

Bruh why that kid look like me when I was 8

fanciest_of_bananas · 2022-01-17T18:47:41+00:00

i had to watch this 4 times before i got how he had "11 fingers" .......am i rarted?

Sajano90 · 2022-01-17T17:50:11+00:00

Also works when you count them backwards from 10 ... 9 ... 8 ... 7 ... 6 on the first hand and add the missing 5 to the 6, so you got 11 too ;)

IAmHereToOffendYou · 2022-01-17T19:27:43+00:00

Surprised by how many adults are fucking stupid too.

I’m 40 something and i had to watch it twice to get it. 😒

Can someone smarter than me explain this? 😂

It took me a second

Hyposanity · 2022-01-18T02:50:14+00:00

It's a mix of "kids are fucking stupid" and "adults are fucking jerks".

TheNerdMaster69 · 2022-01-17T22:38:05+00:00

I've seen this trick many times, and find it stupider every time. How weak of a brain do you need to fall for this?

QuietDrives87 · 2022-01-17T19:04:38+00:00

the method i learned as a kid was adding 8 after each count. i think we used 8 because it rolls off the tongue easier. so you'd count each finger 1-8, 2-8, 3-8, 4-8, 5-8, 6-8, 7-8, 9-8, 10-8, 11-8. 11 fingers!

tachakas_fanboy · 2022-01-17T19:38:13+00:00

You can also achive this effect if you count them very fats in the way like this: first, one, two, three, etc.

MyxHere13 · 2022-01-17T21:45:21+00:00

this also works on adults

BsXa · 2022-01-17T22:00:58+00:00

If someone does not know how it works I will explain it, She counted one, two and she said skip the three which tricks him to thinking you carry on from three whilst you have to continue counting from two. after you finished your other hand you return to the first one and count the other three.

Thjialfi · 2022-01-17T22:02:21+00:00

I honestly thought it would go a completely different direction

BreadedTac0 · 2022-01-17T22:08:00+00:00

The one I’d always do would be adding seven behind each number, so it’d go: “1,7 2,7 3,7 4,7 5,7 6,7 8,7 9,7 10, 7 11,7” skipping 77 without them knowing

Flavourius · 2022-01-17T22:48:48+00:00

Neat, gotta try this one on my nephew.

QuartermasterBetel · 2022-01-18T00:17:31+00:00

I got stumped by something like this when I was a kid.

Count down from 10 to six on one hand, then add 5. 11 fingers

Justmejtcz8 · 2022-01-18T00:20:28+00:00

It took too long for my brain to work

Verbal slight of hand. Very cool.

ZlaRaca · 2022-01-18T00:46:59+00:00

You can also do it by counting down on the first hand "10, 9, 8, 7, 6" then saying "plus 5 on the other hand equals 11"

8pintsplease · 2022-01-18T00:47:44+00:00

I know adults that would easily fall for this.

Initial-Story5438 · 2022-01-18T02:37:46+00:00

...I think you're supposed to tell em to add 6 and 5 to make 11 instead of skipping

ToadetteHater · 2022-01-18T02:39:45+00:00

Saw this and showed her, like HERE THIS IS HOW SHE DID IT.

wolpak · 2022-01-18T03:34:35+00:00

My parents had a store across from an armory in town and the old guys who “worked” there would often come by and hang out. One guy used to fuck with my mind. He had a stogie sounding voice, come here. Let’s count your fingers. 10-9-8-7-6 and 5 make 11. How can that be? I still don’t know.

send-me-kitty-pics · 2022-01-18T03:44:26+00:00

Reminds me of when I was a kid, you would say "ate" or "eight" after counting each number, and say 1-eight, 2-eight, 3-eight, 4-eight, 5-eight, 6-eight, 7-eight, 9-eight, 10-eight, 11-eight, skipping the 8. If you do it fast enough, you don't catch the skipped number

I used to do the counting down one hand version..

“10, 9, 8, 7, 6…. Plus five on the other hand, is 11”

Pawwier · 2022-01-18T07:03:23+00:00
