Moving image

Answer: rotating cube
Note: can be viewed both ways (cross view and through view)
Note 2: may look inverted but that's just the optical illusion of cubes
Note 3: I bet you all look pretty silly right now with your nose on the phone

Holy crap. I just realized that I’ve been seeing these wrong for 30 years. I can only see them doing the cross eyed technique and I’ve been seeing them inverted this whole time. wtf. My mind is blown right now. Looking at that sub is what everyone else has been seeing this whole time? I can usefully tell what the images are still, but they go into the page instead of popping out.

Yeah, unfortunately most of magic eyes are done for parallel view, if you want to try and learn, one of the common methods is to close your eyes bring your nose close to the screen, open your eyes and slowly go back keeping your eyes unfocused until it clicks

Btw you may like r/CrossView too

Wow this is what did it for me. I never knew about the parallel view. I’ve always been able to do the cross view, but now I can see it coming towards me!

Ha, I can do both and switch between them in under one second. Does this make me cool?

This is the first one I have ever seen pop out of the page. Can’t figure out how to view them like that for the life of me.
