Try to see if you can solve this before they reveal the answer. (NOTE: You might want to open up YouTube's home page first and make sure you're logged out before clicking this link! Comments may contain spoilers.

They... didn't reveal the answer. Are we supposed to continue to another video?

I counted 16 passes.
And as for the gorilla, I couldn't recognize him even if I wanted to. Too much compression on the video, plus I'm kinda color blind. It just looked black to me, even when I looked directly at him. For all I knew, it was a long haired girl in baggy black clothes.

While I was counting I noticed the gorilla, but I thought "He's probaly just there to mess me up" and kept counting. I counted 15.

15 passes, and I saw the gorilla. Bleedin' gorillas, always getting in the way.

I got 15 as well, but only if the ball bounces count. I don't remember if they do. If not, 12.

I'm pretty sure the number of passes really doesn't matter.

16, but the whole idea behind this was if you saw the gorilla or not. I did the first time, but only because I was expecting it; I've seen this exact same sort of thing before, except in the other video they were handing a beach ball pale or something from one person to another and it was a bee costume.

That's not a panther. With those ears, I think it's a rabbit.
Arlo's sported that avatar before, except that it used to have a shirt. So, um, Arlo, you prefer streaking now?

You mean the purple "I spelled Tavis's name right, and all I got was this stupid t-shirt" one?

That's not a math test. This is a math test.
1) Prove that the halting problem is unsolvable.
2) Prove that the fourth power of an integer can only have 0, 1, 5, or 6 as its units digit.
3) Prove that if m and n are odd integers, then m^2 - n^2 is divisible by 8.
4) Prove that the square root of 2 is irrational.
YOU MUST PASS THIS TEST TO BE ADDED TO MY LIVEJOURNAL FRIENDS LIST. ALSO I DO NOT HAVE A LIVEJOURNAL.

NO WAI.
It's totally a GELERT.
I thought that was utterly pointless. Haha. The math test I mean. I saw the Gorilla, sort of, I acknowledged it's presence, but I thought it was just there to mess you up. Like Vince said.
