How are your reflexes?

Check out this simple little test. The object of the game is to simply survive by moving the red block around without getting hit by the blue blocks or touching the black perimeter walls.
If you can survive longer than 18 seconds you are phenomenal.

It's been said that the US Air Force uses this for fighter pilots. They are expected to survive for at least 2 minutes.

After a few tries, I got 9 seconds, then I got frusterated and gave up

second time I got 24.395 seconds. Then again, I race a 4,000 lb car in SCCA events...You have to be light on your toes when that thing starts sliding.

10.8 for me ....

I have that saved on my favourites, I got 19 seconds that time but have an all time high of 29 seconds (which is 7 more than my BF )

I seem to get like...0.4 seconds, or about 12! lol

LMAO! I got .31 seconds the first time and 3 point something the next.

With A LOT of practice, I made it to 11 secs.

11.8 something for me

16.504

I was addicted to that a few years ago (and pretty much remember the pattern of the blocks! ) I got to 31 on my first try today!

Ironically, though, I can't do the 'catch the metre stick' thing to save my life!

I used to play this game all the time. Once you get used to the pattern it's not too hard.

I'm really good at that kind of thing - metre stick, falling cups, tipping objects - but I duck and cover my head if anyone throws anything at me.

My results varied wildly - mostly at first I kept hitting the wall - my scores went up to 18 after a few tries. It's not a "fair" test - once it hung on me while I was doing well and I "got hit" even though the blocks weren't moving (that I could see). It's good practice though, I bet I'll be visiting that page a lot!

there we go that was i got lol

I got 16.75 the first time I tried.

Yeah- made it to twenty seconds after a lot of attempts- once you see the pattern the blue blocks move in it gets a lot easier

18.36 after a few tries, so I can tell DH I'm phenomenal right?

I'm getting about 16.876 seconds, so I guess I'm semi-phenomenal
