Did some research and found this magnificent video illusion created by graphic artist Eugen Erhan. This video clip below is originally named “A journey in a world of paradox and illusion”, and shows you a story of a little paper-boy and his trip to optical illusion book. I liked it a lot, and am sure you will enjoy it as much as I did. It’s somehow sad – shows you, that you cannot always get what you want, and there is something that is always holding you back, which makes you go back to start… Makes you take a look at life more, doesn’t it? I feel sad for the little guy, probably even more affected by the background music (Tiamat – “Do You Dream of Me”). If you like this, feel free to link back, or embed it on your site, just don’t forget to mention Eugen and give him credit he deserves. More optical illusion videos can be found inside our videos category.

This is wonderful, its really a dream… Tiamat music is fantastic and the hole idea too…
I actually feel really sorry for that guy now.
musta taken ages to do. i like how it covers quite a lot of impossible objects in a short period of time. Fitting music too.
Great piece of animation, love the music , love the illusions and love the graphics. keep it up Eugen.

First comment!!!!
this isn’t make any sense.
Very Cool!
excellent video!! great ending…
Wow. I think in the end the guy should’ve found a way to make it a possible optical illusion. like making a mobius strip. Oh well. AMAZING VID. I’d like to see more by this graphic artist.
I was wondering at first “Where’s the optical illusion? It just looks like computer animation to me.” Then it comes toward the middle of the video. Very cool. Obviously, this graphic artist is a fan of M.C. Escher.
That is sooo cool!
Crazy Cool!
I think I have felt like that poor little guy before :>(
Sad story… but good animation and good idea. I like it.
Nice. Thanks for bringing this guy to our attention.
That is such a sad video! Why can’t the little paper guy reach his friend?
This is an awesome video! I could not see here so I you tubed the title and found it. I love how when the paper boy closes his eyes a new illusion pops up. Really great!

Wow- I really liked this video- it made you look at life in a different way.

This movie was very cool.. really gives you a perspective on some illusions. I would have hated to be the little paper guy!
Thats awesome!!
my favorite part was definetly the winding staircase.

A very cool video, but no happy ending :(
It’s kinda sad, but sweet as well. It can reflect life but to say it does would be too pesimistic for me!

Beautiful animation

I like the last one that looks like triangle illusion come out to be a 3d object and its looks like do able. Just need some connections between boxes to make it stand up like that. Curious if any one has done it.

I just watched it again and i still think it is funny Poor Guy.
nice!
imagine how much time and effort went into making that too

That’s awesome, especially the stairs. The execution of the illusions in 3D space is great.
it was different but cool and great animation

A bit creepy, but an interesting video. Is there a sequel?
