Ahh. This is actually a knockoff of the original, which won the Ignobel Prize

Here's the citation for the published article describing the experiments.
Simons, Daniel J. and Christopher F. Chabris. 1999. Gorillas in our midst: sustained inattentional blindness for dynamic events. Perception 28:1059-1074.
I'm going to use this in 504 next week but I may actually use your version….
Yeah, the comments in the Reddit thread where I first saw this made me realise this was a knock-off (and remember that I'd even heard of it before many moons ago in undergrad.)
Sounds like the original gets used in disciplines from psychology to medicine to policing and everything in between so it makes sense to use it in 504 to teach us to be observant librarians!
