    Have you ever seen this?

    The object of the game is to move the red block around
    without getting hit by the blue blocks or touching the black walls.

    If you can go longer than 18 seconds you are phenomenal. It's been
    said that the US Air Force uses this for fighter pilots. They are
    expected to go for at least 2 minutes.

    Give it a try but be careful...it is addictive!!

    I can't get past 23ish seconds. I find that if I ignore the three other pieces and concentrate on the big flat one, and only move the red square the minimum amount it's easier. I ended up doing figure eights again and again until they get just too damn fast. I could not comprehend doing it for two minutes.

    My buddy in the Air Force 'escaped' for 3 minutes and they gave him his own A-10 Warthog.

    If you see this past 2 minutes, you will question the claims of the OP. After 1 minute it becomes a seizure.

    it is addictive.

    mouse skills and internet delays aren't terribly important to me though. but it is addictive!

    It's about the freaking mouse you use. I first tried it a few years ago with a normal laser mouse and did OK 28 secs but once I tried with my Razer mouse on a gaming surface pad, I went 96 secs.
