Part 2 in a series. Click here for Part 1: 5 mind-bendingly awesome optical illusions

A while back I posted about some awesome optical illusions. The last few posts have been text-heavy, so I’m going to shake things up a bit with some pictures and videos. These are some of my favorite mind-tricks on the web. Share your favorites and let me know which one’s you’d like me to explain. Enjoy!

5. The Walking Men Illusion

These men are the same size. Seriously. Grab a ruler and check for yourself.

4. Anamorphic Illusions

Just an ordinary Rubik’s cube…

3. Color Constancy

This picture is only red. Seriously. Explanation courtesy of Vsauce.

2. Shadow play

Indents or buttons? Try looking at the photo upside down (without dropping your computer!). Now which are they?

1. The Color Castle

Watch what happens to this black and white image of a castle. When I first saw this in fifth grade, it totally blew my mind.

So there’s your monthly/bimonthly dose of awesome optical illusions. I think these are really cool, especially the castle and walking men. What about you?
