Plot twist: They already have

@@TheMaster1246 It was only an illusion...

Aidan @

I all ready have got one ;)

Like airplane propellers

serendipidus1 I might be wrong but doesn't it only happen on a recording so I've always thought it was just that the still images that make up the video footage are out of sync with the wheels so it appears to turn backwards. Hope that makes some sense and I hope even more that it's true

@@12000gp nope this happens in real life

Richard Ross there’s what I’m learning today, now I can relax and take the day off

We can't be freed from our illusions, even once we know them to be as such.

What, french?

Waiting for this comment to get soixante-neuf likes

Perfect

Using french words isn't wit. Dara O'Brien is brilliant but I am annoyed that this has so many likes.

Alex Maughan are you now? Tell us more

Doofindork I think that's because with that one you can only see the illusion, whereas with all of these they can then show you the trick, like showing the colored circles or the line between the grey boxes, so that your mind can understand it. That's a great clip though

MIRAAAAAAAAAGE

As someone from New Zealand... can confirm, it's a miraaaaage!

I was waiting for it.

They're either misogynists or idiots. Or both. Jo Brand is great. I think some people just don't get her dead-pan act.

@@followtheboat You're exactly right. Unfortunately you see that type of hate with any female comic and to be quite honest it's transparent and tiresome.

Couldn't possibly be that opinions differ. Some of us just find "I'm fat" and "my husband" jokes rather boring. Every second joke from Jo Brand seems to be one of the two. I rarely find her jokes funny.

Agree. Also, who would have thought they could make Thatcher look MORE terrifying o.O

Sailing followtheboat why does not finding female comedians make you misogynistic?

you know you talk so hip man

@@jmcusack CALLLLLL THE COPSH!!!

Soooon, I'm thirty. I only went with your mother cause she's dir....oops. Wrong song.

Eh See Eye

Have you watched match of the day?

András I can’t. I agree with you.

@@olliemad Middle aged, ignorant men chatting boringly (they don't even sound passionate about the subject!) about a sport in which very little happens? I can't think of anything worse.

Now why would I want to go and do a thing like that? If nothing else it's definitely the best panel show ever!

I can't do it. Although anything Attenborough does comes close.

Baroness Thatcher really. :)

I love that you can see Dara and Phil marvelling at the joke and wishing they had come up with it

Went to see 3 episodes live recently it's brilliant

@@francaperotti5934 That fantastic, I've never seen any live, but hope to one day. Fingers crossed

What did that mean?

Toss can mean to wank

@@aussiebloke609 Yes, but I do believe he said "Toss you for it." not "Toss me for it.". Same result though :P

On second listen - you're quite right. Still, as you say - it works. :-D

Toss you for it means to toss a coin to see who gets it. Also it sounds lewd.

Well I’m sorry to say that you are not going back to me today

Too deep for KZfaq comments.

@@MrFlashpoint1978 I also do knob gags

@@zetetick395 Outstan-dong

So she knew the truth deep down, then :D

Why?

Yeah, how dare she back up Ronald Reagan and end the Cold War!! All those Communists kicked out government positions when the Soviet Union collapsed! At least they were able to join up with the Environmentalist Movement.

How dare she help get Britain out of recession! Sinful! She was so bad she was re-elected twice.

April 2013: Thatcher dies May 2013: hell is privatised But seriously, Thatcher was a MAJOR influence on me in my youth. I had a poster of her on my bedroom wall, even. Helped me become the championship darts player that I am today. Cheers, Maggie!

@@mathewfullerton8577 Yeah, by squashing workers rights and dismantling industry, the effects of which we are still feeling today. Poverty ALWAYS rises with tory 'economics' It's almost as if there's a clear and obvious link between those two things.(sarcasm)

@@mathewfullerton8577 There were more recessions during her time in office than under any PM ever.

It's Blancmange :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blancmange

@@rockarola55 You are a champ.💪 Thank you.

@@nayrecitsuj7426 no worries, I was doing a QI deep dive and I stumbled upon your question. One does try to help where one can ;)

Totally different than that one of the most beautiful things I can do for it a little while I think I could get some

"ride past?" I think you mean walk past. Been a while since you've been has it?

No, see ing Claudia is just a treat!

He explained it himself. For some reason, he laughs on an in breath, rather than an out breath like most people do. I know one or two people who do the same, but it's less obvious.

@@MrFlashpoint1978 I think it's also part of his persona now. There are times he doesn't do it or only slightly does it. Either way I still find it funny.

Until you find it's just a hole with no jelly in it.

Sandi suggested blancmange. It's all relative.

Chris Davies he says “toss you for it”.

No, Beavis! 😂

Me after too much acupuncture: The Chi-light Zone

Because of how the light is set up for it. Seems to me to be at almost right angles to the viewer, maybe a bit behind so it casts it's own shadow.

Alan reminded me much more of Beavis, to be honest. But then again, I cannot stand this Dunham dude, so I wouldn't recognize his stuff anyway.

YY4Me133 Correct. Convex faces are common; concave faces, not so much.

True, for a similar thing is easily done with a cube. It requires the help of some false perspective because the shape is so simple, but the effect is the same.

@@Ceruleanst There's a photo of a sampler of a crochet stitch that's an unintentional optical illusion. The problem is that the shadows are at the top, not the bottom, of the stitches, so, even though I know I'm supposed to see raised stitches, I see embossed shapes. I can sometimes find the right perspective, if I work at it, but I can't hold onto it for very long...even though I _know_ what it's supposed to look like...because of the placement of the shadows. Check it out... www.crochetkingdom.com/bows-in-diamonds-crochet-stitch/

@@MichaelEdelman1954 You said he was correct and yet he was wrong and you knew yourself to be correct 0_O it has everything to do with the image being a face as you can make a mold of anything else in the world and your mind will not reverse the image. It is as you say, because the mind wants to see a convex face and so it makes a convex face. And to YY4Me133, you can't manipulate the shadows on a three dimensional object, they will fall where they fall depending on external light sources...

Ha, I was about to make the exact same comment. I strongly suspect that illusion would be nearly as effective regardless of what was being represented. That said, the fact it's a face does probably help to make the brain a little more easily fooled.

Albert Einstein had big tits.

Einstein allegedly had sex with JFK

It was my reaction to both of them!

I think thats just how US TV execs think. Theres loads of American viewers here, I believe.

Yes please let wow be cool man and I wanna was the day I wanna was a good

Yeah, you can't see anything in the dark.

TheHutchy01 I’ve long thought that Harry Roberts looks like a blend of Alan and Stephen. (At least in the infamous 1966 mugshot he does.)

Beavis!
