Default This Optical Illusion Just Might Blow Out a Few of Your Brain Cells

<a href="http://www-bcs.mit.edu/people/adelson/checkershadow_illusion.html" target="_blank">http://www-bcs.mit.edu/people/adelso..._illusion.html</a>

My brain and my eyes are still fighting this one out. My brain knows it's an illusion, but my eyes are totally fooled.

Even after reading the explanation I still don't believe it.

Pretty cool, eh?

Amy

Ahh I've seen this one before, good.

And, sad as I am, I actually checked the hex values on both squares.. they're the same

Sure they are...Check this out...I played around in paint a little, and put a line of the color through each block. WEIRD!

An even better way to see they are the same...When the box is taken out from "under the shade," it is obvious they are the same color...

I am getting a little into this. Haha oh well. It's pretty cool!
