Because they concentrate too hard. Check out this video...

Maybe the reason why aspies have a hard time seeing girls is because their concentration is not easily broken.

*SPOILER*





I counted 16 passes and saw the gorilla, but I didn't notice the curtain or the other player leaving.





*END SPOILER*

I saw 16 passes, the gorilla, and one of the black shirt girls leaving, but I didn't see the curtain change color.

I only saw 13 passes. That's probably because I was also waiting for a monkey to appear (it's in the title of the video!). So I saw the gorilla (because the title told me to look for a monkey), but missed 3 of the passes, the player leaving and the curtain getting lighter.

I counted the 16 passes, noticed the gorilla and the player leaving, and the curtain change. I don't really see why anyone would have a problem noticing that stuff.

saw the gorilla and counted the passes.

I've heard of the experiment before, but I didn't remember it till I actually saw the gorilla.

i didn't know there was going to be a gorilla, but i noticed it.

however i couldn't keep up with the ball passes because the video wasn't playing very well and was kinda choppy
didn't notice the person leaving
didn't notice the curtain changing

I saw the gorilla and noticed the curtain change. I very briefly noticed a person leaving, but I didn't connect it to the black team. I only counted 14 passes though, so I missed 2.

I saw the curtain change but missed the gorilla, strangely enough.

I saw the gorilla, because I've heard about variations of this video. I didn't notice the other things. And I counted the wrong number of passes, lol.
