SUMMARY:
#1. If the first thing you noticed was a dog's head, you're most likely a sociable, lively, and extroverted person.
#3. After having just one look at this optical illusion, most people say that the circles are moving in different directions.
#5. If the first thing you that caught your eye was a goblet, you're a reserved and calm person. You don’t need external sources of energy and motivation; you’re fine in your own thoughts and world.
#7. At first glance, most people can't see anything but two trees leaning towards each other. Look closer, and you'll notice a girl with her back to the viewer.
#9. You probably immediately noticed a black silhouette of a man's profile on the left. But what about the white negative space on the right?
#11. This psychedelic blob seems to be moving forward ready to engulf you, especially when you look at it with your peripherals. In reality, this image is absolutely still!
#13. As you're looking into these bizarre eyes, they seem to be growing larger and closer. You get it by now, right? The image doesn't actually move.
#15. In this image, an attentive viewer will notice the left side of a man’s head in profile. But an even more attentive person will spot that a big black rodent of some sort is acting as the man’s hair. Talk about a unique hairdo!
#17. Did you automatically assume that these butterflies are arranged in a spiral? Take a closer look, and you’ll realize that they’re actually in 5 separate circles, not a spiral at all.
#19. You know the real answer to that question by now. No, the petals aren’t actually moving. But when you really scan the image, they seem as if they’re rotating. Yep, that’s just your eyes and brain playing tricks on you.

  • The two women and the skull wasn't really a fair test since they didn't show the whole pic at once. They started just close enough in to block you from seeing the skull.
  • @burleybater
    Cool stuff. All the examples that compare two different optical angles that represent two different social types are typically spotted almost simultaneously. It's a toss-up as to which comes first, but they're one right after the other, as opposed to one cancelling out the other.
  • @kaifrahman2703
    This is the best video u ever showed....keep bringing these stuff. It really recharges the mind.
  • @stakknation123
    Who else paused to see the sleeping lady, but still couldn't see her?
  • @Zia01023
    Every single image that was to seem to move was perfectly still for me. I tried hard to see the movement in each of those images but couldn’t.
  • @waaar81gaming13
    7:40 I’m pretty sure every one saw 2 women unless of course you were viewing the video from a further distance. It’s almost impossible to notice the skull since the lower jaw of the skull isn’t revealed at first and by the time you do see the skull you probably would’ve seen the girls first.
  • @ssa6227
    Last one was so difficult. Even after seeing her. The old man never leaves for me
  • @B-rian937
    In #18, if you focus on the lowest portion of the tail you'll notice it dipping slightly below the top of the black area so it is definitely getting larger.
  • @ram_s_ranga
    Your analysis about me differs drastically for each image in the video!
  • @darthdavejr
    7:30 you can't see the bigger picture because you have it zoomed in to much
  • @akoitojane
    7:57 Ok i saw 2 girls sitting down. Next i see a skull... Was it the same for you?
  • @kobalt4083
    I actually got most of them right! This video also did explain my personality
  • @rrs1550
    Daughter Speaking: 5:28 It's like a road going downward, those on the low side seem short, and those on the high side seem tall, yet they both could be the same height. It's all about perspective.
  • @JeyFlash
    Those butterflies were spinning…not by my eyes thinking they were 😂 😂 that’s 🧢(also some of these moving closer illusions they actually made move so don’t be fooled lol. Check it to the relativity of your phone edges and the words on screen ✅
