mjah Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 How many colors do you see? Count 'em up. Now that you've finished, be advised that the correct answer is three. Not four. - Magenta - Orange - Green-blue That's right: The green and blue are actually the same color.

Wingman44 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Wow, I thought 4, that's pretty amazing. You can see that the Blue and Green are actually the same color by slowly paging down until there is only about a 1/4 inch of the picture left on the screen. Then the blue and green both look green.

Capt. Kaos Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 http://www.extremeskins.com/showthread.php?t=269429&highlight=optical+illusion there are some really cool illusions in there, my favorite happens to be post #9 I have had numerous arguements over that one, even after breaking out gimp and showing them with color picker. I am assuming I will have the same road to travel with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiLfan Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 That's right: The green and blue are actually the same color. Fascinating. Of course the way some people drive around here, you'd think green and red were the same color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMS Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I visited disney land with my 5 year old. She wanted to go on the haunted house and got very frightenned by the ghosts and such... Wife really blasted me for letting her go.... I set out to redeam myself by showing my daughter how the effects were done. The Pepper's ghost effect was a fun thing to duplicate for holoween last year. All you need is a strong light, 60$ worth of plexiglass from Home Depot and some wood to keep the plexiglass in place. The principle is the same as the glare on your windsheild when somebody durns on a light inside the car in the evening. Daughter was still scared though.

TD_washingtonredskins Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Once I read that it was the case and looked for it, you can start to tell. But at first glance, they look much different. Very cool illusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warpath11 Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 It seemed easy to me as well. Only 55% of people can read it though? That can't be right... can it? Yeah I dont think that is right at all I would guess more like 95% of people can read that since as the note explains the brain does not register every letter.
