Default Stress Test

This is totally cool!!!!! They move pretty slow for me... can't understand why!

"One teacher said, "I felt like they were all moving...but slowly. Kind of like, they were breathing." The 3 pictures attached are used to test the level of stress a person can handle. The slower the pictures move, the better your ability of handling stress. Alleged criminals that were tested see them spinning around madly; however, senior citizens and kids see them standing still. None of these images are animated - they are perfectly static."

Holy Crap, that's wild!

I just put it on my desktop for a few minutes. One of my co-workers begged me to take it off.

i see them moving pretty steady but slowly.

my husbad's either geriatric or childlike, i guess. the only one he saw "moving" was the last one and the second one ever so slightly if he stared at it for a while. that's interesting cause he's the type of person who's not easily stressed.

now i see why they were moving for me a little. he just got done smothering my shoulder with his butt.

That was wild!

They move slowly until I actually look at any one directly then it stops.

If would not give me a headache I would make either of them my desktop background, as it would give those casual glancers that wlak by fits.

They all move slowly till I pinpoint one spot, then all but the second one stops.

3rd pic.. very slow and intermittently as I move my eyes over it..
