Try to count the number of black dots on the image below...
Are the lines below straight or are they curved?
Try putting a straight edge against the lines on your screen to test your conclusion.
Is the blue side in the front or back of the cubes?
It's a spiral, right?
?
Look carefully at the center dots on both the left and right.
Which dot is bigger?
Are you sure they aren't both the same size?
A lady or a musician? See both?
How many faces do you see?
1... 2... or 3?
A face or the word "liar"?
Look carefully, they are the same. Don't let your eyes deceive you!
Six or seven?
This one will make you dizzy. Try focusing on just the center circle while moving your head.
What do you see?
A duck or a rabbit?
Look at the red lines, do they appear to be wavy?
They're actually straight, the circles make them appear wavy.
Behold! The Impossible Triangle.
Do you see the dog?
See the triangle?
It actually doesn't exist. The angles on the three images, however,
give the appearance that it does.
Read the following passage:
Did you catch the two "The"s? Most people miss this obvious redundancy.
Is the following object physically possible?
Which vertical line is longer?
They are both the same length, actually. Measure them!
How many prongs does this fork have?
Are the two purple lines parallel or are the bent?
What do you see?
Rectangles or diamonds? Or both?
(This one makes me dizzy)
Do the solid black lines seem to bend?
Use a straightedge to see if they do bend.
What do you see?
At first glance, this image consists of black splotches, but look closer.
It actually spells a word.
