I got this information from an Instagram reel but ig refreshed and I lost the link before I could save it, so I googled the phenomenon and got an article that talks about it instead. The reel said that it happens in a lot of small things we don’t think about like bumper cars, ice skating, most motorsports, mosh pits, etc.

The counterclockwise favoring has even been found in some animals too!

      Personally I think it’s the product of lizard person mind control trying to trick us into making crop circles so we conclude that the real threat are aliens from outer space. Well joke’s on you, lizards! I know you’re down there, and I’m gonna minecraft my way right down and mess up all your vile plans!

      … oh, um. If you’re serious, I doubt it. The earth can be made locally flat, we do that all the time for buildings and the like.
