Interesting! I got 19 out of 20. Seemed not that hard. Seeing lighter was easier than slightly darker, by the Superhuman level.

it would have been substantially more interesting if you had more than 1 or several of 10 to pick.
that wasn't really that tough. 20/20
the adjacency also made it easier.

I agree. Got all 20 and I did not hesitate. The only one that made me blink was in the easier section, a grey scale.

Got 'em all. Instantly other than one or two which took a second look. Computer monitor may make a difference.

I used to work with high res digital optical scope displays.
Human eye can detect about 8 bits of grey scale resolution 9 if you really good , 10 is virtually impossible
I'm not sure those displays even went to 6 bits.

I did 19 of 20. Not sure what it means to "Have Good Eye".

Here's the deal. I'm red-green deficient. I go to the eye doctor, and I get to about page 2 of the color/circle test and I'm done. However, I have 20/15 vision. Sample transcript:

Nurse:What do you see?
Gary: a number 3
N: Good, page 2, what do you see
G: a number 7
N close, that's a 1, page 3, what do you see
G: an elephant?
N: no, that's a 6. page 4
G: 23?
N: No, that's a house.
G: oh... do we need to continue?
N: No, that's enough.

OK...I watched this thing THREE TIMES to make sure I wasn't dreaming. There are only 19 color tests. Five easy, five medium, five expert and FOUR "superhuman". So if you kept score with tick marks for each correct answer like I didand you got 19...congratulations. That's a perfect score. I wonder if they are REALLY testing your ability to distinguish colors or if they want to see if we are paying attention. ("PLEASE leave a comment", they request at the end.)

I agree that this test is easier than it is made out to be. Either they ARE trying to trick us with the 19 tests rather than 20 and the actual test is just a diversion or monitor technology has improved a lot since the original production was done. (Not sure this is original to the YouTube content producer. Seems like I have seen it before elsewhere.)
