Isn’t it mind-boggling how our eyes can be tricked like this? The video was shared a few hours ago on Reddit. It has so far accumulated a flurry of upvotes and comments.
Check out a few reactions to this puzzling optical illusion below:
“And I can’t believe that things that are closer look bigger,” posted a Reddit user. Another added, “I can’t believe people think it seems smaller because it’s further, although it’s completely about the curve and also think this is an illusion done by someone even though it’s just a fact of the nature of the universe.” “I can’t believe things that are farther away look smaller,” expressed a third. A fourth commented, “The table is on a declining angle.” “Legitimate question: does the camera angle play a big role here? Or is it purely the shape of the objects?” enquired a fifth.
