If you squint and look at the images, it achieves the same effect as being 12 feet away! If you can’t see the pictures below, use this link:   www.grand-illusions….   OKAY YOU SMART GUYS OUT THERE, FIGURE THIS ONE OUT . . . .   “The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honours the servant and has forgotten the gift.” A. Einstein

This has to be the best illusion ever created.


If you look at the above images from your seat in front
of the computer, Mr Angry is on the left, and Ms Calm is on the right.

Get up from your seat and move back 12 feet
and PRESTO!! they switch places!!

It is said this illusion was created by Phillippe G.Schyns and Aude Oliva of the University of Glasgow .
  Does this prove that we sometimes may not be seeing what’s actually there?
