Stupid right sided brain!

Supposedly the direction the image is perceived to rotate in is dependent on the side of your brain that is dominant:

Right-side: clockwise
Left-side: counter-clockwise

The image rotates (SPOILER)clockwise for me, and I cannot 'get it' to rotate counter clockwise. It's driving me literally ape doodie trying to 'make' it rotate counter clockwise. Why?? I don't get it. How can you see it any other way?

wahhh~~~ T_T Qew Qew

topic: what direction is 'she' spinning? If you see it counter clockwise, wtf? how? can you explain?

edit: new topic: more mind breaking illusions ples.

This NON ANIMATED image keeps moving. AHHHHHHH

This is so last week, silly Peegeemon :mog:

[Levian]

Psychotic already made a topic about that horrible vixen, and I hate him every day for it. She won't go counter clockwise, dammit!

edit: ok, PG suggests an optical illusion thread with all sorts of illusions, so I'll open this so you guys can KNOCK YOURSELF OUT.

Thanks Levian. I now provide you with:

A test of whether you can see!

How many times do the people in white shirts pass the ball?

I'll give you the answer after a day or maybe in 3.5 when I leave for home.

edit: it would help if I gave you a url: movie 15

[Bunny]

This thread is dumb. The answer is 17.

[Peegee]

ps if anybody knows the real answer don't say anything.

I counted 14 the first time.

[Jojee]

I counted 14 too but this is a trick isn't it? xD

Edit: wow PG forcing me to edit XD

[edczxcvbnm]

I counted 15 times...is that right? Why am I the only one with a different answer ;_;

[Jojee]

Well the title of the link is "movie 15" and the URL is 15.html XD so good chance that it's 15 XD *goes to count again*

[edczxcvbnm]

Oh...then I rule :D

[Jojee]

Then again it could just be the demo number too

<s>I counted again and I still count 14 ;-; But it's too easy, I must be missing something? xD</s>

Edit: LOL Pg, I hate you xD THIS OPTICAL ILLUSION THING SUCKS.

[Bunny]

There are 15+ of those videos on that site, thus the number 15. I doubt it has any significance.

[Jess]

I got 15 like ed, too.

[Bunny]

YOU ARE ALL WRONG AND I AM RIGHT MY BRAIN IS SUPERIOR

In the animation, she goes clockwise, until you watch the shadow of her foot, then it switches to counter-clockwise.
