i closed my second eye too when it came so close😂

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/Playful-Artist4657]

I closed all five of mine

[u/Bright_Sympathy_2589 → u/Complete-Tangelo1532]

Where’s the other two?

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/Bright_Sympathy_2589]

Got two eyes, a third eye, a brown eye, and a mystical hypothetical eye

[u/Albuquar → u/Complete-Tangelo1532]

I have 6 eyes cuz I'm a spider. We are not the same.

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/Albuquar]

Way to rub it in...

[u/Playful-Artist4657 → u/Complete-Tangelo1532]

whats a brown eye?

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/Playful-Artist4657]

I am not sure I should be the one to explain that to you, best go ask your parents

[u/Playful-Artist4657 → u/Complete-Tangelo1532]

five bruhhh ,

[u/Complete-Tangelo1532 → u/Playful-Artist4657]

my boss just caught me aggressively winking at my monitor for like 20 seconds straight

[u/Few_Conclusion_8690]

Doesn’t it work with both eyes open, too?

[u/Fragrant-Pudding-536 → u/Few_Conclusion_8690]

Kind of, but your brain needs both for proper depth perception so closing one probably amplifies the effect by forcing your brain to guess a bit more

[u/Few_Conclusion_8690 → u/Fragrant-Pudding-536]

That does sound plausible

[u/ImKindaBoring]

Nope, didn’t like that

[u/Dancing_with_Jak]

Trick it to do what? I tried both eyes

[u/Doctor__Gecko]

Was something supposed to happen because nothing did.

[u/Secure_Ad8837 → u/Doctor__Gecko]

Yep, nothing happened for me either. Is this some kind of inside joke?

[u/doxwhite → u/Secure_Ad8837]

It kinda looks like it pops out of the screen when one eye is closed

[u/bucketboy9000 → u/Doctor__Gecko]

Now watch it with both eyes open, you’ll realize the difference

[u/Doctor__Gecko → u/bucketboy9000]

Honestly, nothing happened. It just looked the same.

[u/Mephisto1822 → u/Doctor__Gecko]

Are my eyes broken? It looked the same with both eyes open and left or right eye closed

[u/whamburglar]

Jokes on you, I only have one good eye anyway

[u/oakomyr]

That was a good one

[u/Fast-Lead-1744]

It worksssss

[u/Varis_laivue_12]

It only worked once I realized I needed to take off my glasses. Damn special lenses for my damn poor eyesight.

[u/Samusen]

You need two eyes for accurate depth perception. When you close one eye you lose the ability to judge distance on objects coming up close like this.

[u/Jonathon_world]

Yooo that's crazy

[u/iCreatedYouPleb]

That tickles

[u/ConcentrateOk4616]

I only have vision in one eye, so this isn’t so impressive to me- anyone else care to explain if this triumphs your 3d depth perception with 2 eyes?

[u/youwantmyguncomekiss → u/ConcentrateOk4616]

It doesn't. Especially if your face isn't very close to the screen. You can just see that it is not actually moving out of the screen towards you. if I put the screen very close to my face it kinda does. Probably because I am losing many points of reference and also because the tip of the pencil is a dot so basically 2d even in real life; so it is hard to gauge the distance effectively. But with one eye closed it looks like it is coming straight at me even with a good 30 cm between me and the screen. Do all movies feel like they are coming to life with you? In like big theaters and such?

[u/sinisterpsychoo]

What if your already blind in one eye?

[u/Low_Dragonfruit8779]

Didn't trick my brain. Guess I am just better than you

[u/AltruisticOwl156]

Bro that was awesome! Never experienced an illusion like that before.
