Optical Illusions Are A Great Way To Waste Your Time

January 26, 2008

Stare at the dot. Which way do the stripes move?

Here’s one of classic examples how our brain can easily be deceived. When you first look at the image below, red stripes seem to move in one direction only. Try focusing on the central dot… See how the stripes started moving in the opposite direction?

As you will notice, the red lines move back and forth. Our brains are so easily tricked.

Not reaaly an “optical illusion” like the one above, but it is definately the coolest tattoo I have ever seen.

It is unfortunate that far too many guys fall under the influence and make choices we think are good, when really, it’s just an illusion. And I have seen it happen to the best of them.

Here is a brain teaser. At first there are your usual 11 players on the soccer team. But when the picture changes, there are magically 12. How is this possible?

This last one is pretty cool. My fiance showed it to me and we argued for atleast 5 minutes on which way this chick was spinning. I saw her moving clockwise, she sees her moving counter clockwise. I looked at it again today and was able to see it moving in the other direction, but ultimately, she moves clockwise to me. Which way does she move to you?
