Optical Illusions That'll Fool You Every Time!- Believe it or not !

No, you're not tired and no, you don't need to change your glasses - you're just about to experience some fun optical illusions that have nothing to do with fooling your eyes and everything to do with fooling your brain!

You see, our brains don't want to have to process ALL the visual stimuli we see all the time, so they use shortcuts to make snap decisions about colours, shapes and other visual cues we see during our day. While this is very handy, it also leaves room to easily 'trick' the brain into seeing things that are just not there! 

Stare at the black cross, and slowly the blank spaces will become green.

When you focus your eyes above this line, the black and white dots will look like they are rotating clockwise.

Can you see the dark bands appearing as the concentric circles pass over each other?

The famous Penrose triangle is an impossible figure. Don't look too long, it may drive you insane.

Not making it any clearer...

Which way is this train going?

Where does the extra square in this triangle go?
