<\/p>\nHere is a fun cartoon. Count the people. Wait. Count again.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Answer explained in the extended entry.<\/p>\n
I took the puzzle drawing and rearranged the 12 guys from high to low. The orange line is where the puzzle “cuts” them. If you take the lower half and slide it one person to the right, you make 13 people, which is shown in the lower half of the drawing. That’s basically what is going on, but the effect is disguised by mixing up the people and making it a two-part shift.<\/p>\n Here is a fun cartoon. Count the people. Wait. Count again.

\nKelly and I noticed that when there are 13 people, pieces of them are missing. One guy is missing the top of his head. Anther one is missing his chin. Another is missing his knees. How do all these little pieces add up to a 13th person? We also noticed that people were staggered from high to low. We were on to something. A Google search of: Count 12 13 people puzzle” found the answer<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"count-12-13-sorted.gif\"](\"\/jeb\/files\/mt\/count-12-13-sorted.gif\")
