So we've all seen optical illusions like these before:



The reason these happen is because it's a 2D image that we try to perceive in 3D. That's why we see these stairs that never seem to get anywhere. Another famous one is the impossible fork:



On the left, there are two square prongs, but on the right, there are 3 circle ones! Again, it's the same kind of illusion that tricks our brain into forming something that doesn't exist. One of my favorites is:



The beans appear to be moving, but they're actually not going anywhere. It's the fact that they're arranged in such a way that your brain thinks that they're moving around.

So what kinds of optical illusions do you find cool? What are some of your favorites?

I actually love the stairs.

I don't think I'll repost it though since it's clear what it is. haha

Yeah, the stairs is pretty clever.

Here's an optical illusion I always use first as example.



Which do you see? Old Woman or Young Princess?

I like the mobius strip, as well as some of M.C. Escher's works.

I like this one:



The illusion here is that squares A and B are actually the same shade of gray, but we perceive them as different shades to keep them uniform of what the picture is supposed to be.

I know. But if you use your fingers to cover all the squares around square B, you can see it.

rcarter2 That's awesome!

I couldn't see it while covering, so I just isolated both in paint and did undo and redo, and it's so strange, lol!

I created a gif for it
