from
"Two Japanese nine-year-olds play the word game shiritori while SIMULTANEOUSLY adding 30 numbers flashed in 20 seconds. They are using the technique called "anzan", which is to imagine an abacus in your head."

"Since abacus and anzan calculation use a different part of the brain from pencil and paper arithmetic, as discussed here, it is possible to play language games while playing Flash Anzan.
In this clip the two girls are adding up 30 digits in 20 seconds while simultaneously playing "shiritori", a Japanese game in which you must say a word beginning with the last syllable of the previous word." - http://www.guardian.co.uk/science...
