An interesting ad for Rimmel quick dry nail polish, placed in public location

What I’ve noticed is no matter how some illusions tend to be better than the other, it absolutely has no influence on number of comments. See the Jack Daniels post below. I thought it was one of my best finds, you seemed to agree (based on ratings), but still the post only got 8 comments. [...]

Impossible Columns Optical Illusion

To share some background news, the story is I finally gave up (to all the pressure from my friends)  and started playing some online poker. What I found out, is that there are literally thousands of websites promising huge bonuses for new players, but for now I only had luck with this Sports Betting website [...]

What the hell...?

Posting each impossible object as a separate post was logical in the beginning. When I started this site, all of the impossible objects made a stand-alone unique experience for my audience. But over the time Mighty Optical Illusions website has built a database of over 10,000 optical illusions, hundreds of them representing some kind of [...]

"Relative Sizes" optical illusion can somtimes be as complex as this one!

Relative Sizes category consists of hundred interesting optical illusions, but the problem occurs when you start understanding them. When you see one, it is if you have seen all. All of them start to look the same. This is probably why none of them were posted lately. Well, this time Alan Mountain ensured we get [...]

Henry Lim created this LEGO replica of Relativty by M.C. Escher

While its not possible to actually build an impossible structure with LEGOs, it might be possible to create a structure that (when viewed from the appropriate angle) would recreate the illusion. We already proved this many times, but if you are new to this site – be sure to check LEGO tag. You’ll quickly realize [...]

Ad for Russian mobile communication company Megafon, inspired by Sandro Del-Prete

If you’ve been following our website from its very start, the photo below may look  somehow familiar to you.

Hmm, something seems wrong here...

Two days ago, me and my better half returned from vacation. I thought I would immediately start on the site. Post new illusions, add new functionality, etc… I forgot one little detail: Each year I return home, somewhere near the end of August, Ragweed (ambrosia ?) season starts. This little plant is a real pest! [...]

Impossible Nuts Illusion

Many of you probably saw this video already. Today I watched it once again, and after all that violence, corruption and shit happening in the world, I was really touched. Somehow it put a smile on my face, and gave me some hope that there is still a chance for us, inhabitants of this wonderful [...]

How would you create this impossible object, without tempering with the image?

I’m not particularly inspired today, thus you shall receive this short question and a belonging optical illusion that goes in companionship with it. I can guarantee you that the picture below wasn’t manipulated with, and that the object you see can truly exist in real life. Only question that jumps out, is how? It may [...]

Impossible Arch Puzzle

I found this image in my optical illusions folder today, and wondered why I never got the time to publish it. Look at the picture on your left. What do you see? There must be something strange going on here. No way that the arch shown here has the proper top. Or can it? I’ve [...]
