Eye Tricks

My favorite illusion video
Well, you asked. It's the link above.

Spinning Spiral
This spinning spiral will appear to move, even though it is does not!

Incredible spiral arraws
This is one of the new illusions added to the site. Makes a nice wallpaper for your computer too!

Have some fun! Try the Ambigrams Section.
An ambigram is defined as a word that is the same upside down. Very fun, and make great tattoos too!

Funny Man Sitting on Bench !

Either we have X-ray vision or... ?

preparation h funny man on bench

Even though the ad on the back of the bench is a little torn up, this optical illusion is still pretty strong. Nice job by the ad agency that worked with Preparation H.

The illusion, of course, is that the man is sitting perfectly in the center of the bench. The picture on the back of the bench makes it appear as if we are looking at the back of a woman sitting on the bench. So either this man has a very girly figure, or he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I bet he had no idea he was photographed for this picture, or had any idea what was going on. Just trying to enjoy a relaxing day in the park.

If you look really close, and actually try to read the ad, you'll notice that it is not in English, either!
