Floating Woman Illusion

35 comments

Danilo Rodriguez The III. sent this true optical illusion. He said: "Hey I have your site as a little widget thingy on my google/igoogle homepage, and so I figured I might as well send you this email, that was FWD'ed to me with a couple of good illusions". There were few more in his email, like Spider Effect, Vanishing Haze, Parallel World, Disappearing Spot... etc. But I already wrote about them. Except this one below, which I never saw before. It is really awesome, but you need to know how to look at it. Ok, slowly move your nose towards the screen, almost to touch the screen, and you will notice the magic. Probably this one works best if you open it full size! By the way, I'm really glad you people liked my "random illusion" button in upper-right corner of the site ;)

    Yea i got this illosion straight away, really cool.

    I'd just like to add that when you said:

    "I'm really glad you people liked my "random illusion" button in upper-right corner of the site ;)"

    I think you ment upper-left hand corner???

    That's really neat - she goes through the hoop, but in an impossible way. Cool :)

    i had to like squish my nose against the screen but it worked lol... that's really neat and i've never seen anything like that illusion before either... do you think it would work with a real picture and not just a drawing?

    I don't see anything.....I know I'm supposed to be seeing her going through the hoop or something, but whatever it is I' not seeing it.

    you mean upper-left corner of the site. At least to me its where the #random illusion" button is =P

    i dont know if anyone noticed... but the perspective is not correct. the side of the cirlce that the man holds with his left hand (which is in the back) is the one that gets in front of the girl. and the other one in the back... i think its a better illusion than first thought. nice job

    Great! But, who did put Spain expresident Aznar`s face under gentleman`s hat? Politicians can hypnotize us to fly and vote them with just a few magic words and other hidden technics, but this one makes me thrill...

    I didn't see anything...

    We are supposed to see the head of the man????

    I DON'T GET IT! The only illusion that I got was frustration. How does this work??! lol

    I don't get it... How does it work? -_-* So confused!!!

    I don't get it, where am I supposed to look as I do it?

    Just incase you don't see the illusion right away, try looking at the tip of your nose at the same time looking at the screen as you approach it :)

    Is that Ron Jeremy holding the hoop?

  23. Blogger Steve 

    Ahh, it actually worked better when the image was smaller. At larger size, only her head went through the hoop.

    do u americans only know the word "cool"??

    anyway the illusion didn't work for me..maybe because I'm too intelligent XD

    its not that great, all that happens is that you go cross-eyed and everything looks closer together. not that amazing from my view.

  26. Anonymous Anonymous 

    sweet

  27. Anonymous Anonymous 

    Its easier if you just cross your eyes.

    You will see the woman pass through the hoop

  28. Blogger Nils 

    I think it happens because as you approach the dot you start to see cross-eyed and therefore it looks like the woman floats towards and partially through the hoop.

  29. Anonymous Anonymous 

    You just have to put your face close-ish and go cross-eyed...

  30. Anonymous boopa boop A boop 

    i get it you put your eyes up to the dot having your niose touching the dot and look at both the girl and the guy and you see the girl through the hoop.

    that's no "illusion" that is the space between your eyes moroon.

    Isn't it because ur sight is slightly offset??? if u look at ur nose (go crosseyed) evryting in da background goes double if u hold 2 fingers next 2 eachother and look behind them and get a "hot dog" and if u du it 2 much holdin ur arm out at full length sees somethin double (Dont try 2 get to mi state i see just about evrything double and it gets reely anoyin after about a month.) In this case u just see 2 women but u only wnt 2 see 1 so u do.

  33. Anonymous Anonymous 

    i get it, the woman goes inside the loop

  34. Anonymous Anonymous 

    i got it, try to stare though ur computer screen, if that doesnt work, go cross eyed, well worked for me

  35. Blogger AWS_SK83R 

    lol when i do it i get to close and the screen statically shocks me on the nose...it hurts!
