    The answer would I think be a minimun of one, maximum of 4 (3 on the other side could be attached, though they look a little awkward for that to be the case).

    Maybe there could be an absolute max of 5, if you count the leg which seems to protrude from his mouth and is myteriously pale at the top in comparison the the rest.

    Ha, he reminds me of the girl who was born with 4 legs and 4 arms.


    I only see one complete leg with foot. All the others... just don't seem to fit...

    "Pee race" however, evokes 2 kids running a 100 yard dash with their boyhoods hanging out, spraying hither and yon furiously, as they race to the finish line. Hilarious!

    He is floating in the air with 3 incomplete legs (or stumps) and one complete leg with a foot, some cruel hunter has placed 4 feet inbetween and next to where his feet should be, possibly the hunter is cutting off family members feet one by one until the elephant agrees to float around as a circus act for him...

    OK, thank you for your participation the answer is none, well that can be debated, but the overall effect is none, this is why....

    we perceive this elephant to have legs, but just legs that are misplaced, we wouldn't question how possible this actually is, however it is not possible for this to actually make a real 3D model, it wouldn't have attachments for its legs, it's body would be floating in mid-air, only it looks possible as a 2D picture in front of you so out of all the speculation the thing most can conclude is it's legless, though this isn't based on fact but more a lot of thought others may conclude it has one leg as one appears in the right place, another valid reason, make what you will of it :)

    So the thing to take away from this is things aren't always what they seem

    I would say that person 1 is Intelligent, Skillful, Warm, Determined, Practical, Cautious, Industrious, and likes tacos.

    Person 2, on the other hand, is Intelligent, Skillful, Cold, Determined, Practical, Cautious, Industrious,
    and is plotting to become dictator of the world where his first action will be to make eating tacos punishable by death.

    Person 1 and Person 2 are pretty much the same except Person 2 is a sociopath.
    Do you hate Drug Cartels? Do You believe that the Drug War is basically a failure? Do you think that if we Legalized the Cannabis market, that use rates would drop, we could put age limits on cannabis, tax it, and other wise regulate it? Join The ORG Marijuana Policy Project!

    In American politics, similar to British politics, we have a choice between being shot in our left testicle or the right testicle. Both parties advocate pissing on the little guys, only in different ways and to a different little guy.

    heh i'd say they were both cold but meh

    anyway generally when these to characteristic sets were given out WITHIN a large group of people, the traits with person 1 were assumed as 'kind, friendly, brilliant' person 2 was described mostly as 'quite, lonely, spiteful' all other traits were great, only the words 'warm' and 'cold' differed, it shows mostly how certain words have a sharper effect on people, for this one word to overpower the 7 accompanying it, it also (even though i provoked people to class it as personality) could just be referring to a persons temperature showing how set the mind is in its thinking of course your answers were mostly jokes and on different thoughts, i just stated what many other people stated when experimented
