Great illusion, but I don’t get it why the car in the back is the smallest… Awesome…

OK I thought the 3rd one was bigger because of a perspective/riddle thing but not at all because it looks bigger. And further I keep re-playing the solution because I’m still not convinced

My observation took me too a totally different conclusion. This shows us that your eyes can really be deceving and it can make your mind think something that is not true.

I was not entirely sure why the animations that were closer on screen turned down and why did it leave certain tid bits around

Strictly speaking, if it was a real picture, the one in the back would be the largest.

Hmmm… the cars aren’t evenly spaced, so you see a little more of the middle car, making it look bigger? and the front car is partly out of the frame, making it look smaller?

@ausGeoff: measure the distance from the bottom of the front tire to the steering wheel. no cheating!

I’ll cry “foul” on this one!

Half of the leading car wasn’t shown in the original picture, which unfairly limited our perception unfairly. However, the full outline is shown in the animation.

The animated solution therefore “cheats”, as it adds unknown (to the viewer) information to the original image. We obviously can’t assess what we can’t see! Very poor.
