That IS interesting. I knew about the gorilla and easily saw it. I kind of noticed the curtain changing color but was so busy thinking about how easy to spot the gorilla, how could anyone NOT spot the gorilla, I didn't really identify it as a curtain-color-change--I vaguely thought the lighting had shifted and then shifted back, but then I lost train of that thought. I definitely missed the player in black leaving.
Oh, and I only counted 15 passes from players in white, but there were 16. I presume I missed a pass while all the excitement was happening?
I knew about the gorilla too, but it took me about three viewings to spot the player leaving. That's why I posted this clip and not the original one from 1999. I hoped that even those people who knew about the gorilla would still be surprised.
