Optical Illusion – Impossible Object With a Twist

If one looks closely at the construction of this figure, it quickly becomes apparent that something is just, well…wrong with it. 

This initially-baffling video exhibits how the human visual system can subconsciously interpret and thoroughly "see" a three-dimensional object even though it is impossible for such an object to exist.  Thankfully, the creator reveals how it was constructed.

    Another classic illusion. I like the one that looks like a tricycle.

    I don’t think I’ve seen one that looks like a tricycle. I’ll have to do a search now. You’ve got my interest.

    I call this LAME!!

    The illusion is only baffling for cause of seeing it in a Two dimension matrix.

    LAME!!
