The Impossible Triangle



Wavy Lines Optical Illusion



To enhance the ripple effect of this optical illusion, more your head up and down, and it'll appear to crumple and wrinkle right in front of your eyes

Jesus Optical Illusion



Stare at the four black dots in the center of the image for 30 - 60 seconds.
Then quickly close your eyes and look at something bright (like a lamp or a window
with sunlight coming through it). You should see a white circle with an image inside it

I feel like a noob, but what am i supposed to see in the last one??

some monster or horrible looking shadow on the right,with arms down,,,thats what i see

creepy

Cool. I have seen a few of these already.

I can see the last one, but it gives me a headache!

Ha!

my personal favourite is the word jumble(second to last) it is really amazing how you can read it with such ease its almost like they are in the right place

gotta love those optical illusions

Everyone who's having trouble with the last one, just stand very far back from your computer.

This is one of my favorites:

Cool stuff. I liked the one with the pink dots the most. I wasn't expecting them to disappear like that (I watched before reading what was supposed to happen).

Yup that one is my favorite too. Very trippy.

We don't need no stinkin' second line.

Amazing find, anyone know the mechanics behind the black arrow and the pink -> green dots?

The Jesus one is really freaky!!

Imagine if you could play a prank on someone with this? Everything they closed their eyes they would see Jesus !

i use the imposible triangle as my company' s logo
(*just hope there are no trademarks on this! lol )

The pink/green dots on is based on chromatic adaptation. Press Esc in your browser to stop the animated GIF, and then stare at it. All the dots will disappear, leaving a constant grey field. Here's another example of chromatic adaptation:
www.planetperplex.com...

The animated lack of a dot, moving around in a circle, causes the adapted eye to perceive the grey field as a blue dot, in that area. The blue is the same as the opposite difference between red and grey:

(grey field color) + (blue dot color) = (grey field color) - (red dot color)

Sort of like how after-images work.

Oh my eyes!

I counted only three F's, didn't see 'Jesus' and barely see a 'gummie bear'!

Ive got these on my own site so thought about sticking them on.

Put Jesus one on as it might help those who cant see the other one.

This is stupid its just a computer generated image that is animated to look like its turning.
