Beer glass / coffee cup illusion
Probably this is well known, but I haven't seen it described before, and it is a robust illusion easily observed with ordinary objects.
Many restaurant cups and glasses are flared -- the bottom is a small circle, the top is a larger one. This really makes them seem taller than they are. Take a straw or a fork which is actually a bit taller than the glass or cup, hold it horizontally, and ask people which is taller. The straw or fork will look decidedly shorter.
the giant jellyfish is real!!!!!!!!(Iread alot)
Hey, this probably isn't it but it is possilble, they could have used photoshop. This is more likely tho!! It is totally real, i read a lot also, and have seen articles about that exact giant jellyfish in china!
