Alyssa, from Oklahoma, can take any word she hears and say it backwards. She appeared on the Today Show yesterday.
She says that when she hears a word she sees it spelled out in her head forwards and backwards. She said when she learned to read she learned both ways so she’s always been able to do this.
Thanks Mike F



I wish I could do that
Not only that…wait till you find our how she got from OK to LA in only a couple of hours.
I had a friend in high school who could do that. He is now institutionalized (no joke), so I hope this girl has a different fate.
Poteau is a very tiny town in Oklahoma, really not much of anything else to do.LOL
It is pretty cool and what an adorable young woman.
I’m just blown away by the fact she gets it right every damn time.
Is that di-dyslexia or bi-dyslexia? Tsuj gniksa.
She probably has 500+ friends on facebook with bathroom mirror pictures. Reading all those backward T-shirts was bound to have an effect.
Sounds like some form of synethesia
