A long, long hallway this was.
It was hard to say just how many hours had passed, after all, they had no way of tracking time in the darkness, only counting, but that also proved to not be very effective if you think of it.
The chances of counting accurately to x seconds are quite hard, of course, if its lets say, five seconds, it's not that hard, most can do it, because most humans know how much a second is.
Though to perfectly count to five is actually very hard. If it's to the millisecond, then it's around a 1% to 0,36% chances.
That's low.
And thers a good explanation why. And it's because of us, because of how fast we react, a normal human's reaction speed is around 250 to 300 milliseconds, with that, hitting exactly five seconds and zero milliseconds, is about a 1 in 276 chance, which is a 0,36%.
Most have an error of about 0.2 to 0.23 milliseconds; this is the case for short intervals. Which is the case for our five seconds.
But this is where things get hard.
