So, talking in chat with Galacta, and they mention that they would bet their left eye on something. Well, that reminded me a test I had to do in Basic Training to see what my dominant eye was so I knew which hand to shoot with. I am left eye dominant. But, after trying for a few days to shoot left handed, the Drill Sergeants finally let me start training myself to shoot right handed.

Anyways, this is a fun little test to do, and I am interested to know if people are as weird as me, or not.

So, what you do is, you take your hands, and made a triangle with your index fingers and thumbs. Pick a fixed point, like a mark on the wall, or  a spot on the ceiling, and pull your hands slowly towards your face. Whichever eye is in that small circle is your dominant eye. 

Well, kind of results did you get? Right eye dominant, with right hand dominance? Or are you left eye and left hand? Or a mix, like me, being left eye dominant, yet right hand dominant? 

And if you don't mind, put your results in the voting thing. That way, everybody can keep an accurate count of this thing. 

This is officially the weirdest moment I've had in a long time. Bringing that triangle up to my right eye without even knowing it was headed for the right eye until my hands were against my face. lol

Cool test, man. Thanks for sharing this. And I'm right eye, right hand.

Eirinn : Yeah, now imagine 40 or so Privates all doing that, and going " Drill Sergeant, how the heck did you come up with that?" and looking like idiots, doing it over and over again, to make sure we weren't going crazy. 

thing1 - ROFL! xD Yeah, I did it a few times as well. I actually had to force myself to make it go to my left eye, just to make sure I wasn't imagining the subconscious pull to my right eye. It messed with my head. xD

What a cool little test and a fun conversation starter. I'm right hand - right eye dominant which makes sense cause I've always been a great shot when my Dad and I go hunting.

My Dad is left handed and is infamous in my family as a bad shot. This makes me wonder if he's left hand - right eye dominant. I'm curious thing1.5, how accurate of a shot are you? Also, if you've got good aim was that hard to achieve?

While I didn't take a point that I was facing straight on, it was pretty close to that and found out I'm right eye and hand dominant. I was thinking it would be that, so I'm not surprised, but it was a fun and simple test to do
I also use my right foot for football/soccer too, although for some things I prefer to use the 'left things of my body', like doing a judo roll over my left shoulder.

I'm left eyed, and right handed. This doesn't surprise me a hell of a lot (I'm actually ambidextrous, though).

thing1 : I'm left handed and I took the eye thing a couple of times but it never works for me so they say I have dominance in both eyes which is somewhat rare. (But also what leggy said i'm ambidextrous as well)

 Making that triangle was weird but it yielded decisive results. I'm right-handed and right-eyed. Doesn't really surprise me, seeing as how I've always preferred my right hand.

deg2000 : it helps if the fixed point is above you a little bit, and across the room, not in front of you. Try again, and tell me what you get. 
juuldude : Try again, too. Try finding a point across the room and up a little bit. 

I am actually surprised at the results so far. 

thephantombrain : Eh, average, I suppose. I could barely hit anything when I shooting left handed, so the Drill Sergeants let me shoot right handed. I progressively got better, but the last time I shot was when I was in the military, and I shot about average, I suppose. 

thing1 : Like I said i've tried these things multiple times like I said the eye doctors also agree that i'm double dominate eyes and hands

I don't appear to be either left or right eye dominant. When I pull my hands toward my face, they end up right in between my eyes. But I am right handed.

rcarter2 : What are you looking at, and where it's at? if it too close or too far away, it won't work. If it's too big, then it won't work either. 

The object is about 10-12 feet away. It is a silver pineapple about the size of a baseball.

I'm not sure if I'm right eye dominant, neither, or have a SLIGHT preference for my right eye.  I tried several objects of several sizes and distances away, but got mixed results. I'm definitely NOT left eye dominant though.  Like Eirrin (oh, us curious minds! lol), I tried forcing it to my left eye and that made me go slightly cross eyed and hurt my brain.  

This is so interesting. XD

So I guess I'm gonna say right eye dominant and right handed.

rcarter2 : Try to find something small. It helps if your thumbs are stacked on top of each other. Whenever I do it, I find a small mark on the wall, or a certain bump on the ceiling. 

Singelly: refer to the advice I gave rcarter. 

thing1 : Getting the same thing. Have my right thumb overlapping, and I am using a power outlet on the wall. Same distance as before. I have tried other distances and other objects, getting the same thing.

thing1 :  Yeah, I did both those things, don't worry. haha.
