Walking in circles People who get lost in the desert,
mountains, or woods often seem to wander in circles
rather than walk in straight lines. To see whether people
naturally walk in circles in the absence of visual clues,
researcher Andrea Axtell tested 32 people on a football
field. One at a time, they stood at the center of one goal
line, were blindfolded, and then tried to walk to the other
goal line. She recorded each individual’s sex, height,
handedness, the number of yards each was able to walk
before going out of bounds, and whether each wandered
off course to the left or the right. No one made it all the
way to the far end of the field without crossing one of the
sidelines. [STATS No. 39, Winter 2004]
