The white shirt players started passing the ball before I got acclimated to the scene so I missed some of the first passes and only counted 12. I had read the magazine article so did't pay any attention to him.

I tried to open passing the ball/gorilla but kept getting the same video of the gorilla going about town

The first video was fascinating. But the second video suggests participants won't notice a changed curtain, but actually I never even saw them pass the ball. To me, the video was like a music video of the gorilla walking around town, people dancing with him, etc. I must really have inattentional blindness as I couldn't see people pass a ball in front of a curtain at all!!!
