Imagine you're a brain surgeon - what's the wierdest thing you've found in a head?

    Quick experiment I'm conducting :p The answer's in quotes so that you can't see it in the preview :D
    A spanner
    Just watching Dara O'Briain's new DVD, and he asks that question of an audience member who claimed to be a brain surgeon, and he said spanner. But before he answered, I thought of spanner also! So I just wanna check if that was a coincidence, or if it's like when you're asked to pick a number between 1 and 10, most people pick 7.

    Vote in the poll and let me know :D

    I do drink, pretty hungover today in fact!

    Anywho, looks like there's no phenomenon here! Only 13% of you thought of a spanner, and most had probably seen the DVD before :D Oh well

    Go about your business now

    How the **** does a spanner get inside someones head? I'd love to hear how that happened although I'm not convinced that it happened at all.
    Not a dara fan so I haven't watched this DVD.
