Hey! Previous post I did yesterday, already gave some results. Andrew Miller and Robert Irvine (editor at Web User magazine) both sent me a scanned photo of the page where our widget was mentioned! Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. I will probably create “MOI in The News” section, where I will post all those articles that made reference to this site. If you have some material, don’t hesitate to send it. Stay tuned!
In the mean time, here is a simple illusion that surely worked for me. Have a look at the picture below. Can you see the deliberate mistake the author did? Some people see it immediately, while others stare at the image, and takes them eternity to notice. Some people don’t see it at all. Jump inside the article, and read the answer I wrote below the photo – or confirmation of your answer (if you have already seen the solution)!

You did spot it, didn’t you? If not, just ask yourself …. what is the name of this animal?

This should help those that are having trouble:

It is a girrafe with stripes!
How can you not see it???? Its a giraffe with zebra markings
It’s a bird on its back, looks like a little pinguin cause of the Zebra marks
its a giraffes body with zebra stripes on it. thats the mistake. Ive never seen a zebra with such a long neck..
Since when have giraffes had stripes?
zebra print on a giraffe’s body. [: saw it right away.
I love the penguin comment! My first thought was misdirection and there was something in the trees. Can’t believe I missed the obvious!
LOLBURGERS.
I got it without reading the answers but it took me WAY too long for what it was… *hangs head in shame*
I think if I wasn’t told to look for an imperfection, it would have been quicker. Anybody know of a psychological reason for this?
the “penguin” is on top of the “zebra’s” back
This illusion made me feel so stupid :) I started at it forever like “what, whats wrong with it.” then my brother came up behind me, took one look at it and was like “Why does that giraffe have zebra stripes on it” Boy did I feel stupid
It’s obvious guys. The zebra is in the shape of a giraffe. I got it right away.
I saw it the moment I glanced at my dashboard widget… but it’s a good trick =)
It’s a Gerebra!
omg!! that was like…really easy…(mayb cause we were learning about african animals in geog and that was just way to obvious)
Lol. made you look you dirty chook.
Looking at the thumbnail after i read the title on my iGoogle, i was like “Hmm the legs?” almost instantly…. then i realised as i clicked the link to come to the main page – wtf, its obviously that its a Giraffe-Zebra! =P..
I think the question itself is what threw me, along with the fact that i’m used to seeing illusions and such from moillusions. If someone had have asked me “What’s wrong in/with this picture” I’d have just given the answer straight, easily… its where the image was posted and the question was asked though ;) (and how it was asked :D) – rather than “Find the Mistake” =D
Great post i liked it thanks! =D
is that a toy?
I my god, i just wrote that is’t a toy, I just got it, I must be reaaaaaaaaaaalllyyy tired because i didn’T saw it at all, niccce one! your line telling to ask myself works because when I tryed, a had a total block, lol
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA.
that’s funny. XD
hmm, its ok not great but ok, and id call that thing a zeraffe.
Nobody noticed also the rear legs?
If you look at the feet, the 2D front leg looks like the right rear leg, but it actually is the left rear leg.
Best regards,
A Big ostrich on the girafe :-)
dont exist a
giraffe with zebra marks
dont exists a
giraffe with the mark and colour of a zebra
i don’t see the penguin, no matter how hard i look…. i see random patches on the zebra but it doesn’t look like a penguin….
I see the penguin too. It’s on the Girrbra’s back.
I don’t doubt that you can breed such a Zebraffe nowadays though.
è una zebra? è una giraffa? ahahahaha!
ciao ;)
It didn’t take me looonnng to figure out.
check the original picture
http://www.raskraska.ru/book/img/giraffe_01.jpg
I think it has something to do with the legs ;)
Where is the Penguin?!
I can’t see it!
Lol, the penguin is cute!
This is phantastic “instinker”
Ruud
Well, duh. It’s so obvious.
The Zebra’s neck is too long.
I don’t know why, but I find that simply hilarious!! Especially after my younger brother got frustrated and started ranting about mind control using illusory lies and whatnot…
there is no penguin.
anyone that didn’t notice this needs to take a retard test to see if they are a retard or not.
instantly noticeable !
LOL – I looked at the original picture, and my first thought was: “that’s not right.” XDD Aaaaaah, MOI is twisting our brain perceptions!! XD
I stared so closely! Actually it’s obvious
ITS A ZERAFF! THE RARE ANIMAL!!!! :D
Hm, I dunno how anyone could not see that. :-\
Took it kinda long to see though, but when I jumped to the article, I found out the answer was right in front of me! Hehey… Fooled me. Keep ‘em coming!!!
I got it at onces, does that mean im smart???
I had my mind focused on looking for like false legs or something else. It took me 30 seconds to figure out it was OBVIOUSLY a Giraffe photoshopped with zebra stripes…this is a good one.
It’s not a zebra!! lol
wow how did the giraffe get those zebra stripes! was it painted, photoshoped, or was it just born like that (i doubt it was even close to being born like that) *unsure*
Hahah theres a penguiN!!!!!!!!! XD
i see the penguin it is behind the animal, i think it is called a pengraffebra
