- Do not touch heel-to-toe
- Lose balance while turning
- Stop while walking to regain balance
- Take an incorrect number of steps
- Use arms to balance
Upon completion of these feats, a poorly-compensated and likely minimally educated person will then make a completely subjective judgment as to your success or failure. Additionally, deeming it successful will be an indictment of this person's initial judgment and skill which they will be loathe to do. In the meantime, one can smell the weed contrails coming from the passing vehicles.
What a system.
