Most people answer instantly. They see two big holes, the ripped areas on each leg, and confidently choose 2. This is the most common response and represents what your brain sees in the first second—obvious shapes, clear damage, and fast decision-making.

But the moment someone says, “What about the waist hole? What about the leg openings?”, everything changes.

Let’s break it down step by step:

• 2 torn holes on the legs
• 2 leg openings at the bottom of the shorts
• 1 waist opening at the top

Suddenly, the total becomes 5 holes—and many people argue this is the “logical” answer.

But some thinkers go even deeper.

If the holes torn in the legs go through both the front and back fabric, that means each tear may count as two holes, not one—bringing the count to 7 or even 9, depending on interpretation.

And this is where the fun begins.
