I’m almost finished with setting the new site and design, and in the next few days you will witness Mighty Optical Illusions RELOADED! Yes, that’s right – new design, new platform (WordPress), and all your favorite illusions and comments in one place. All the links and stuff will be on the same permalinks (you won’t notice the move), but much faster and nicer than ever! This is probably why the texts and illusions I post lately are crappy, but all this will change soon, when I finish the migration, and concentrate more on the new content.
One thing I need to ask you is to have patience, and report all the broken and missing stuff on the new website, as it will take few days to fix everything properly after I redirect moillusions.com domain to new destination. I found this nice little illusion, and set it to appear in all your widgets. Your assignment is to tell me which of these two boxers is taller? The one who won, or the other poor one – laying on the floor? If you have experience with this kind of illusions, you’ll know the answer before you even finish reading this post!

I guess they are both the same size since this is an optical illusions website.
they look the same size to me even without that red line but this really isnt an illusion…
both the same height :)..
i think its the one on the floor – the room looks tilted- that or they’re both the same.
Same Size
THEIR BOTH THE SAME HEIGHT!!!!!
They are both the same teehee XD
I think the winner is taller :)
Wait thier the same!!!!!
same size, right?
This one is OK, not my favorite relative size illusions though
the same size of course!!
If those lınes weren’t there, ıt would be more lıke an optıcal ıllusıon.

same
This one isn’t really that great, they look they same size anyway. I’ve seen much better ones.
SPOILER**

its a good illusion but its common so yea…
= – D

same size =]
awesome site! i love it! i just found it a week ago and im addicted! Keep up the amazing work!
i don’t get it!
ummm, they just look the same height. I’m sure the guy standing up is supposed to look taller, but it’s not working for me.
Hi,
I have found a lots of error in your migration to new server.
1. I am automatically switching between two servers.
2. I cant check full article in new website, when i click on picture, the picture will only open, and when i press the back key, i am back to the old server.
3.one title is appearing at the bottom of many illusions. Just check “Spot the Object” Category for example. “The Virgin Digital Find the 75 Bands” is appearing under most of them.
4. Some of the illusions are showing html codes instead of titles.
5. There are two “About” Links on Home page.
Many more errors i can tell you if you are interested.
i wrote something here
the comments didn’t make it
AHA! They are of the same height! (I actually used a ruler!) LOL!
this was done once in a skool of infants where they had two identical testubes filled with juice. they aske dthe kids if they were the same and they all agreed. next they poured one into a taller but thinner tube and the other into a wider but shorter tube then asked the kids. somewould say the tall one cause its taller the rest said the smaller as its wider they couldn;t comprehend that they were the same.
hmm michael, i used a ruler aswell, and my ruler shows that the one on the floor is quite a bit taller?
Ok those of you that think they are different lengths, well you’re simply either lacking spacial reasoning skills or completely retarded. Aside from the fact that the object of this exercise is to perform an optical illusion you can thereby deduce that they are the same height. And yes children under the age of 5 usually have difficulty with calculating volume as opposed to calculating area which they are much better at. And to the guy that used a ruler and came to the conclusion that they are of different lengths, well let’s face it your just an idiot. Go back to school and but something to assist you in measurements.
If the one standing up is supposed to look taller this isn’t a very good optical illusion at all. First) There are much better ones where people actually get tricked, Second) They have a red line making it even more obvious.
And webslicer I completely agree, people are being retards to be quite honest.
I think that, since the one on top is slouching a bit, that’s the one that’s taller.
there equal igits
They both appear to be the same height. But the one standing up is slightly father away, which makes him taller.
