But for some reason, even though it sounds easy, men are seen trying but not being able to complete it smoothly. Optical Illusion Hand Trick Is the New Viral Challenge on TikTok and People Are Really Confused About How to Do It!

But the Men Couldn't

Here's Them Trying it Together

How is it possible? It seems an easy task right? But scientists have an answer, its got to do with the center of gravity. US Scientist Jeremy Johnson was quoted to The Sun, "The centre of mass for most girls is lower to the hips, while the centre of mass in boys is much higher. Therefore, for most girls, the centre of mass while bent over the chair is above their feet, while the centre of mass for most boys is above the chair." While another scientist had a different thought. The other theory says that men having larger feet - so they have to walk away from the wall to reach the required paces. Interesting! Do you want to try this out with your friends? See if this actually works.
