Because the wires are spiraled in opposite directions (clockwise and counterclockwise) they are now intrinsically connected. The only way to separate them would be to manually unwind one from the other. Pulling the wires just causes them to rotate against each other, and the momentum moves your fingers down the wire like a conveyor belt. The same thing happens with the key ring. However, if you placed a mark on one of the wires with a sharpie, you would see that section spin around in a circle, the mark would not end up at the end of the wire.

No, The shirt black spot say "FAR" for the most part with a bit of fudge on the letters (look the L), but there is a small grey outline that read "CLOSE" and when it's close enough, your brain pick up those letters. But when he step back you stop noticing the outline and just see the big "FAR".

@@BoojumFed Could be many things, first can you see distinctly the lines "close" now that i told you they exists ? If you don't at all, you may need glass, get closer to your phone or the compression of the video was too bad to see the illusion. Another likely explanation : you may see the shirt exactly for what it is. If you just see an hot mess that neither saw really "close" nor "far" you might just not be susceptible to that illusion. If you have more question, i'll be around.

Easy. Wires are fixed. Pulling on the wire allow the spiral to rotate in the fingers offering the illusion that is infinitely pulling apart. It’s the sliding of the fingers on the wire from center outward toward the ends that causes the twisting motion

@NukerMunkyGames Жыл бұрын
1:38 - As you pull apart, as long as you don't grip so tightly they can't freely spin, they are "screwing" back together at the same rate that you're pulling the two separate pieces apart. The same number of "coils" remain interwoven no matter how long you pull apart because of this.

U have to be like 1 to 2 inches away from the shirt with it right in your face to see it say close because it looks like far from any distance because the "close" printed on it is so faded and light that you can see far very easily unless the shirt is almost on your face.

I see both images at the same time, close/far and einstein/monroe. And immediately saw that you're just rotating the spirals, not pulling them apart. Visual illusions like this have always failed to trick me. As well as horizontal/diagonal bars, high contrast bars, shadow/highlight checkerboard squares but being the same color, spacial tricks with circles surrounded by big/small circles, magic eye illusions, inverted 3d masks, and so on. Only one has been tricky to discern: the clockwise/counterclockwise dancing silhouette. I can either see the simple black/white blob that morphs/flips about, or I can try and extrapolate a 3d spinning figure. Since there is no shadow, both interpretations are correct.
