Believe it or not, the horizontal lines are parallel to each other. It’s not how it seems so it’s calledAN OPTICAL ILLUSION !It’s Funny How Your Mind Plays Tricks On You !

|
A: Both have exactly the same length arms. Bertha’s arms just look longer due to an optical illusion.
|

|
A: WRONG! They are both upside down ashtrays -Filled with rusty nails, explosives and detonators
|
A: A ton of feathers is the heaviest –(Because of a complicated optical illusion, the feathers just seem lighter because they’re all soft & go in pillows.)
|
A: It can of course be either! |
A: Due to an optical illusion caused by it being so far away, you’d be forgiven for thinking it was either.(But it is, in fact Superman, wearing purple Y-Fronts pulled up to his armpits, doing backstroke.)
|
A: Neither is more circular than the other -(B just looks more circular because it contains a tiny stick man trying to get out.)
|
|
Now stop your head spinningand look once more at the spiral.(It seems to spin slowly in the opposite direction doesn’t it?)
|
A: The answer of course, is C(Due to optical illusions caused by money and the refractive properties of the flood-water surrounding low-lying houses.)
|
|
A: In fact, each shape is as red as the other -(The Red Circle just looks redder due to being circular – another optical illusion!)
|
If you see fuzzy black spotsin the intersections of the white gridyou might get ill and will one day, alas, perhaps die
|
A: Orange is more blue |
Aha – it is, of course, an optical illusion.No one could make that shape - because it is an Impossible Shape for most carpenters to make. So unless your friend is a very very good carpenter, it’s unlikely that they’ll be able to construct it. (But I know someone who could do it for you for a couple of thousand pounds if you’re still interested in having one made.) |
