Here’s another, animated version of Irish Leprechauns I posted earlier. This gif animation was kindly submitted to us by Mr. Carlos Sicilia, as a reaction to our leprechauns post. What you have to do is count the number of people in this animation, wait a few seconds until they change places, and then count them again… is there a problem with your counting, or is this some kind of magic trick? Has anyone solved this?

(I Just realized that “Anonymous” [May 20, 04:22 a.m.] had quite given the same explanation.)
the 3rd person on top of the 2nd line appears and disappears
HAHAHA!!! before the picture moves it will add another head hahaha im not JOKING:|
oh no i saw it one is being a small head! now i know hahaha i solved it!:))
its just alteration of the top parts make it look different, saw it in a book.
oh and also a whole top part of a body moves
The solution is simple.
During the switch all 12 of the figures lose a part of their body, which gets summed up into the 13th person. The way this is done is that each of them because a tad bit shorter.
Look at the guy all the way in the bottom left.
During the switch his hair gets taken away, but he gets nothing for it. That hair then becomes the hair and forehead of the guy on the right, who had lost an entire upper section of his head. Through this process each figure loses a bigger amount than he gains. If you were to follow the “bodypart-chain” the last guy doesn’t get anything for giving away a section of his shoes.
Whoever drew this was some kind of genius.
