Really Cool Optical Illusion
Printable View
Maybe I'm odd but she's only spinning one direction in my view and that's clockwise, I can't see any optical illusion or confusion.
I may be very wrong.
Not really an illusion. She just changes direction every now and again.
Stare at it for a while and will her to spin the other way and trust me she will spin the other way. Unless your the bloke from mallrats who can't see the sailboat
eh no actually thats the illusion she doesn't actually change direction your perception just changes
I think this has been on here before.
People have different methods - blink rapidly, look away then back again.
Best way is to focus on the shadow, you can actually make her turn either direction at will. If this still doesn't work, just focus on the nipples and enjoy the show :eek:
OK been staring at it for ages and nothing changes, my spatial awareness is pretty crap too, maybe it's something to do with the dominant side of my brain?
*just gave it one last try and it worked, God bless those nipples ;)
I drew circles with my fingers on the desk (Clockwise and Anti-clockwise) before looking at the screen. When I looked up, she was turning the same way I'd drawn the circle.
(Block G, I guess this isn't quite what you expected when you searched for "naked spinning girl" on google!)
I had to concentrate on where the shadow met the feet, after about a min the direction change happened, once I changed focus it went back to clockwise and had to start over. Interesting and odd.
I saw this one a few months back. Very cool indeed. Passinginterest, you're closer than you think - I seem to recall that this was linked to a study that found a link between which direction you first see it spinning and which hemisphere is dominant.
this is driving me bananas can only see her spinning one way,i must be stoopid
Let her spin my way. I'd be about her like a rat in a trash can.
Looking again I suspect Shennanigans, if t'were an illusion she wouldn't change foot no? She definitely changes foot ...not just direction.
I've noticed direction changes but i can't say i could change direction at will, was trying there for a few minutes, tbh when i was concentrating the direction seldom changed at all!!
All I can see is clockwise too.
I am not easily fooled ;)
i am with tricky, i think she is ony spinning some way, and the theorists are talking sh1te!
ive been looking a this for near 10 minutes now and i cannot see it. i am dyslexic in some way?!
Always anti-clockwise with me
I looked for a while and I cant see any direction change.
Tried to concentrate on her going other way but nothing.
If you look at the shadow of her leg you see it keeps going in one direction.
can someone create a gif that actually as her spinning anti-clockwise and then that way at least ill actually know what she looks lke spinning that way.
spinning clockwise is that the right hemisphere, id assume thats the smart sde of your brain :D
Saw this before. I can see her spin both ways, for what it's worth.
Try this: hold a mirror or cd against it. Some people see both the gif and the reflection spinning the same direction. Freaky.
