  1. I see the dancer twirling both ways too, but I can’t get her to switch back and forth. Most of the time she’s going clockwise, though.
    The Chinese vs. German Culture is hilarious! And right on target with my knowledge of both cultures. The one about lining up is just amazingly accurate.

  2. The Twirling Dancer starts off counter clockwise and goes that way for a minute then all of a sudden she is going clockwise. Weird

  3. I had trouble getting it to switch directions until I concentrated on the legs and then discovered I could switch it back and forth at will. Pretty weird.

  7. As hard as I try, I can’t get the dancer to switch to counter-clockwise. Cool.

  8. Hey, nice trick. You do realize that if you wait long enough, or scroll to the bottom of the page and back slowly, the dancer changes direction on her own. If you don’t want to be right-brained, wait a bit and you can magically seitch hemispheres!

  9. I see her going both ways at will also. I’m ambidextrous, are any of you others who see her going in both directions?

  10. I had to concentrate really hard to get her to go clockwise. As soon as I stop trying she goes back to counter-clockwise.

  11. I used to be incredibly left-brained, and tried to train myself to use the right brain more. I must have been really successful, as I can’t get her to turn counterclockwise at all.
