Default Trippy Optical Illusions

Some of you may have already seen these, but I thought I would share them with those of you who haven't. Enjoy



This picture is not animated...your eyes are making it move. Try looking at the same circle for a couple of seconds and the movement will stop

Now this is a fun thread.

We should dedicate this to optical illusions! Hooray for Osiris!

Here are a couple more

Is this possible?


Are the purple lines bent or straight? :P


You should see a man's face and also a word...
Hint: Try tilting your head to the right, the world begins with 'L'


Do you see gray areas in between the squares?
Now where did they come from?

Hm, I can't help but wonder how the grey dots work.

Oh, and is the magic word "liar"?

GAH!

Indeed I saw a circle appear, and then it became clear and slowly started moving to the top right corner of my eyes. The first thing I said when the circle appeared was "JESUS!" ... and I guess that's the answer xD

Could be Jesus, could be some random biker dude... There is really no right answer to this. I thought it was Jesus as well...but I figured mentioning it might irritate those of us non-believers
