The brain convinces itself that it is a white square under a shadow. Hence it has to be lighter color. That's because the brain is accustomed to processing the scene as a whole, not in pieces.
you’ll probably never see this but i’d like to let you know how much of an impact this video and later your whole channel had on my childhood development and interests. thanks for the good memories
for some reason the spiral illusion never works for me even though i want it to. Edit : It's been 4 years since i made this comment, and sadly, nothing has changed. It still didn't do anything. Update : It's been 7 years since i made this comment, and looking at the back of my hand still doesn't do anyting for me. I have however discovered that looking directly at a black screen makes strange white lines similar to lightspeed warp in sci-fi movies appear in the dark. No hand expansion as said by other commenters though.
I wasn't well kinda looking at the spiral I needed to blink so I did it again this is what happened I really don't know if this was it but my hand grew bigger and bigger (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Whoever says there hands look normal, you have to stare at the centre and not blink, if u blink yout eyes won't capture the illusion, still if u can't, get an appointment with eye doctor
@@muskanchugh6858 I guess everyones brain works a little different. Even if an illusion works for 99% of people, there will always be the ones, that experience it differently. It's a bit like hypnosis. It works, but not with everybody.
I think the dots are all white. When you focus on one dot, the other dots seem grey. When you focus on that other dots, it turned back to white and suddenly other dots become grey again. The cycle keep going. 🤔
U can't look at the swirls u have't to look at the sender. It make your hand go bigger. If u look at the sender of the spiritual without blinking it lasts longer
The last one where you stared at the spiral I wanted to look away because the guy says keep staring at it than he pauses then says it again, I thought I was gonna get jumps cared!!! But all I got was a bigger hand.
Woah, something's up with your brain wiring. Not that that's a bad thing, but that's really fucking cool. They looked like two separate colors to me...
ronnie herrera I was watching a video on why they look different to most people, it said that your brain sees the pattern and sees the shadow, your brain knows that it's supposed to look like two different colors so it automatically makes it look like two different colors... Did any of the other illusions not fool you? The neat fact that the two shades looked the same to you is very curious... to me anyway, I'm a nerd about this kind of stuff I guess :/
i got soo scared that something wass gonna pop out at the last one.. so i read some comments to make sure nobody said something popped up.. then i did it.. cool!!
When i did if you concentrate closely your hand gets bigger then smaller bigger then smaller only when you concentrate on the spiral the exactly on your hand
I stared at the centre of the spiral without blinking, but when I looked at my hand, nothing happened, I know what this trick should do but I mean wtf? are my eyes immune to illusions?
Miss.kitty That's not my point, but not blinking usually helps, and I did try it originally blinking, and saw nothing so I tried without blinking, but still immune :D
I JUST SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF MYSELF!! So I watched this video on an iPad. When it came to the spiral illusion and the guy said "now stare at your hand", the screen went black. Basically I could see a reflection of myself in the screen, but because the illusion is meant to mess up your vision, I just saw a deformed face in a black screen staring into my soul. I will not sleep tonight.
