Be sincere, what whas the first thing you thought for yourself, when seeing this image? I was sure it was just an oridnary spirall, but when observing it more precise, I figured out it's actually a bunch of concentric circles... Hillarious! Did you get the same effect?
The eye tends to follow straight lines. Since the boxes are slightly twisted, your eye follows the edge of the box inward from the circle, making your mind think "spiral".

Now that is a cool illusion.
Also, if you scroll the page up and down over the image, you can sort of see a rotation effect happening.

That's pretty sweet. Saw the spiral first, and it looked normal... now, it just hurts my eyes, but I can tell it's circles.
DUH OMG this is NOT real it was photoshopped duuhduhduhduh

hi, i was looking at this optical illusion, and then i scrolled the screen and noticed that while the image is moving up or down, the spiral seems to be spinning, is it just me?

Clever.
I really had to concentrate to see the circles and not the spiral.

that is pretty cool./... how do u c that
actually, i thought that it was rotating first, but mabey i've been looking at optical illusions for too long
best illusion that is actually an illusion in a long time
i think summits wrong with my eyes coz i saw the circles first......anywho if my eyes worked then i'm sure it would have been a good un :)
wow confuzing :S
Wow, that's cool...confusing, though. I actually had to trace the circles with my finger to make myself believe it wasn't a spiral! Haha.
This makes my brain bleed
That was cool!! At first I thought that it was spiral but when u look it carefully you can see its circles
that's sick!
where are the spirals???????????
I saw the circles first, i still don't see the spirals.....
I never saw a spiral. It always looked like circles to me. Now that I'm trying, I can kind of make myself see a spiral...
