impossible box

[kuei1248]

That was easy! Just nailed boards on the faces of other boards then put your cam at the right angle. No sex today, huh?

[Showbolt1]

impossible my ass.

it`s nothing with the shadow.....lower left corner is on a rock....the right side is superted with a stick....so now we have 2 support points....the 3rd point is going left upper corner behind lower long traverse from back to ground.....anyway....taht`s what i think

[stone412]

Impossible box tease! You were gonna get our hopes high, then pull out the carpet from under us, just so we all can land on our low self-esteem. Well, I hope that you don't get british humour! That'll suit ya! LOL

[Thissiteisapain]

Nice angle trick! ;-D

[computertechdude1234]

I beleive that its not 3 dementional

[highvoltagefeathers]

XP awesome! oughta try it on a cloudy day though,

[sketchartistmc]

took me a minute but the vertical plank in the "front corner" is really in the back and the "rear corner" plank is really just nailed to the front. its all just lined up right to make it look like all corners are connected. pretty cool

I See shadow givin it away!

[raghul2hacker]

hi scotty..

i dont see any illusions in it....

[therecommender]

you can see it in the beams

[dajlrj]

easy mate, the shadow gives it away.

[IbanezGuitarGuy15]

I saw this somewhere in a book too, they called it 'the crazy crate of Jerry Andrus'. The book was called incredable visual illusions.

[dave198421]

look at the shodows on the ground, very good tho

[BIoodyldiot]

HUH? I dun see nothin

[SobeDragon7]

Ohhhh...I get it now....Wow that's a good idea.

[rainpowers]

its a square its just that the 2 sticks are nailed on the sides u can tell a lot from the hammer side to side

they are not in the corners only on the out side of the sides if it makes sense what im saying lol

[Elandreyah]

hey buddy the two outside vertical pieces keep the two horizontal squares together, the two inside vertrical posts creates the illusion ,while the second one from the left actually helps holding it up and olso the true construction is not a square.

Cheers

hahaha...no the shadow is real....i simply forgot about that....I'm just a wood worker, and I bought an illusion book with the box illusion in it...so i thought i'd give it a go....I should have made the box a bit longer so that i could get inside...

Took me ages to get everything good enough to film...but I'm happy with the outcome :)

[Ckevinh]

this is a really great video.

i know how its done, but at first it really amazed me.

i see how you painted on the shadow tho ;-)

[arminio1]

[o5rdovm]

[rognoncru]
