Typically, more than half of the observers will not see the gorilla.

for those who do, in the version shown, most will not notice that the curtain has changed color or that one of the players on the black team left the court when the gorilla appeared.

The reason why are we seeing this video is I would like you to pay attention to details when you study physics and solve physics problems.
