Once again Mighty Optical Illusions website proudly brings new optical illusion that hopefully will become as famous as the Spinning Girl did in the past. Remember when we first posted Spinning Girl illusion, it was later reposted on all the famous websites across the internet. The artwork was created by Peter ‘Def’ Oksbjerre, and the flash work was enhanced by Miguel Ortiz, and later by Anthony J. Foreman. The author’s website can be found at defcon2.dk I thank all three of you guys for your time. Now the illusion works like this: watch the spinning man, and you’ll see him spin in one direction, but as soon as he rotates for 180 degrees, you’ll see the switch in the direction of his movement, and he will spin differently. Let’s see how long does it take for big websites to find this illusion and write about it. Remember, to see the freshest optical illusion on your PC desktop, Mac dashboard, iGoogle or Facebook profile, add the appropriate application. You can find them all at the top of the sidebar.
Let’s give the author (Peter) opportunity to explain it himself: “Hi, Love your site. I was playing around with some particle-systems and depth-maps in AfterEffects and suddenly this guy showed up. I like how his legs get totally twisted in the middle of the spin. It works with the same principles as the Einstein and Chaplin-masks where you see the inside but it looks like the outside.”

HOLY CRAP!
OM Gosh!!
His legs are spinning one way while his torso spins the other.. I’m CONFUSED AND STARTLED!!!!
To beat the illusion, watch his foot O,O
Guys, he haves no back.Only back side of legs.He haves two faces and two bodies on front and back as well.Only legs have front and back side.
In other words, he don’t have ass :DDDD
Just follow his legs and you will get it ..
language!!!! :-D
it spins with the legs one way and the torso
what is a torso?
his legs and arms move in different directions but his face moves in both…lol…im…confuzzled! stare at his crotch and you will see what i mean.
look at his feet moves in one direction. .but his face move different. .that is shit!!
you kiss your girlfriend with that mouth. :-D
thisisnot only the best opttical il website but its the bet on i EVER went to!!!!!!!!!!
To beat the illusion, look at his genitalia.
Oh… wait – he has none?
when his front is going left that is the front of the body and when it’s going to the right thats the back, WATCH THE FEET
He Spins both directions Cool
thats awesome….
what makes this model quite effective is the highlight/ light on the feet that confuses you more to trick you that the hallow/back part is still the front.
OMFG NEVER SEEN ANY THING LIKE THAT ,,, WOW

I want that 4 mine as well. It would freak my friends out. To beat it LOOK AT HIS KNEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
He has no butt!!!!
HA! :-D
No, i get it. To beat it, watch his foot. It will do no good watching his torso, or face. It is just like the einstein illusion. Our brains make us think he is outside not in. I am confused, really I am. Whoa! Its just so… confusing. But, the cat illusion is more popular. Still, this is very nice. Nice work!! But CONFUSING!!!
look closely. its only turning clockwise. xD
