THE MIND - 1

[GeorgeNathanPhotos]

I dont get it!! Where are the videos?

[theOman333]

@GeorgeNathanPhotos you gotta press the link bud

[GeorgeNathanPhotos]

@theOman333 Yeah I did, I clicked on the start here which shows a 1 minute clip. Then he says check this out, and then the video ends. Nothing happens after that?? Am I missing something?

[theOman333]

@GeorgeNathanPhotos it should open a playlist..

perhaps you have some setting where autoplay is disabled.. check your settings..

if its not this then i really have no idea, good luck!

[darkmaster489]

This isn't a lean back on the mind, it's a leanback on how to fuck it.

[MicroCrayonSaw]

That intro music made me think I was watching CarPool! Good shows with good taste in intro music.

[kugirl2015]

Dear Michael, can you please start adding the link to the next video in the discription for those of us on mobile devices?

[minicabsandweirdos]

Uh check what out? How does this work, I'm so confused :/

[Basekitball]

Im pretty sure the blue lines are there...I've tried covering all the black lines (tunnel vision) and still see blue lines...even put my eyes out of focus for a while then back in focus and the blue is still there.

[DolmerCraft]

@Basekitball he is not talking about the blue lines! he says that when you look at the picture it looks like there's a white-blue cirkle in the middle of the four small cirkles!

[XamioStone]

Now that I deleted my original comment, there are no top comments... rofl :D

[XamioStone]

Since my original comment is causing so much arguing, I decided to delete it. :D

[MrNicolaevici]

this whole show made me incredibly depressed XD

[cyberalienakuma]

I love leanback! please continue!!!

[junior14norte]

Can Someone Help me find the Leanback with the guy that has the huge domino and when it falls he gets scared and akwardly shakes?

[H3110World]

i don't get it can somone please tell me?

[SatanistSin]

At first all I saw was the four shapes, until you mentioned the transparent circle that isn't really there. Now it won't go away! YOU BROKE MY EYES!

[SkruffyPretzals]

I do love your voice :)

[8aros2]

okey ppl 1 biq tip, look at thing with only 1 eye, and then look at the circle with the other one... you would be suprised....

[majorplst]

@XamioStone i think your paint.net is effected by the illusion :)

[CrazyMushroomPeople]

Hey Michael, could you put a link in the description box to the next video so I can "leanback" on the go? Please and thank you! @vsauce

[xPvtStashx]

i didnt see the blue circle

[michalchik]

The illusion isn't the blue circles it is the white circle

[RoriSatori]

anyone ... please tell me what's the next one :(

[iLuvCookiez99]

@RoriSatori just press on the first link and it will automaticly do it for you

[Matzes]

@XamioStone isn t that the whole purpose of an illusion?that it actually LOOKS like that?

[XamioStone]

@Matzes No, do you know what Illusion means?

[Matzes]

@XamioStone I think I do. something that LOOKS like it,but IS NOT

[XamioStone]

@Matzes That's not what you said earlier. Soooo, urgaybro

[Matzes]

@XamioStone the word "actually" might have thrown you off,sorry this isnt my native language.

[sethboy66]

@XamioStone The trick is that you mind paints an invisible circle around the edges of the blue lines, the trick is not the change in the color of the color of certain parts of the circle.

[XamioStone]

@sethboy66 There is a gap between the blue lines and the grey/black lines. Proven false once again with my friend Paint.Net.

[Jigiligy]

@XamioStone I don't think you understood where the illusion is....the four sets of rings ARE half blue, but the other pale blue circle you see going through all these rings does not exist

[XamioStone]

@Jigiligy Ummm? Either you or me have weird eyes, umm.

[Vyz3r]

@XamioStone If you can give us proof, then we;ll believe it.

[XamioStone]

@Vyz3r Press Print Screen, go into Paint or Paint.Net and press the paste button and examine it yourself dumb.

[Vyz3r]

@XamioStone I was just asking for a proof, but why do you have to call me dumb?

And I'm sure you don't understand the illusion. This optical illusion creates a bright color that appears to spread out over a white area from bright visual contours. Do you see the circle on the image? That's the illusion. There's no actual circle there, but your brain makes it as if there is one. It's not the color that's the illusion, but the shape it makes. How's that for dumb...?

[XamioStone]

@Vyz3r It actually looks like that, go into Paint.Net and check it out yourself.

[Vyz3r]

@XamioStone Well, DUH! Of course it will look like that! It won't change no matter if it were on a program, video, screenshot, canvas, etc. You know what? Forget this illusion; you don't get it. That's a better reasoning behind this-- you don't get it. End of story.

[XamioStone]

@Vyz3r I examinded it pixel by pixel man. Don't tell me I am wrong, because Zoom x 3200% doesn't lie.

[Vyz3r]

@XamioStone /facepalm Why wouldn't it when the image you got was from a screen capture and zooming it will only blur the image? Here's an idea: Why don't you try doing the exact same thing on paint.

I'm sorry, but you have got to be the most dumb person to not get the idea behind this...

[XamioStone]

@Vyz3r You dumb, it wont BLUR, it will show the pixels and their TRUE color. It actually looks like what you see. /facepalm

[Vyz3r]

@XamioStone Oh gosh... You don't even know what I'm talking about... Ok, I get it. I get that you just don't understand the whole illusion. I had enough, just forget it...

[XamioStone]

@Vyz3r I understand the "illusion". But it ACTUALLY LOOKS LIEK DAAAT BRO. I compared the colour of the pixels by using the paint droper aANNNNDDD, I examinded it by eye at Zoom 2000% to 3200%

[fosterchild94]

@XamioStone Of course it looks like that. The illusion will appear whether it's a still in a video or a screenshot on Paint.NET. It's based on how you perceive the image, not on what format it's in.

[XamioStone]

@fosterchild94 No, I examined it PIXEL BY PIXEL, and it ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE THAT. You don't understand what I am saying. :P

[Davek1013]

@XamioStone the illusion is the blue lines create a circle shape in the center, when they are in fact just blue lines. The same is effect in essence is utilized to print images on a screen. What you see as text are in fact hundreds of pixels arranged to depict text, much as the blue lines are arranged to depict a circle

[XamioStone]

@Davek1013 I realize that. And with this image, there is no illusion, I examined it pixel for pixel, and it actually looks like what you see.

[fredrick01]

@XamioStone I did it too. It IS an illusion.

[XamioStone]

@fredrick01 Do you know what an illusion is?

[xGhost153]

@XamioStone Wow...

thats exactly what i said a week ago...

[gtsinger96]

@XamioStone

Is it possible your paint program has fallen victim to said illusion and, in fact, believes the white region to be blue?

[XamioStone]

@gtsinger96 Lol, you cant be serious.

[gtsinger96]

@XamioStone

Obviously not. XD

[Hematite1000]

@XamioStone The color in the center is the exact same color as the edges of the picture. It is an optical illusion. Use the Eyedropper Tool in MSPaint to pick up the center color and record the color's RGB numbers, then take the edge color and record those RGB numbers. They're both 255 for R, G, and B.

[XamioStone]

@Hematite1000 Paint.Net says otherwise.

[Hematite1000]

@XamioStone You trust the free web based image editing software or the $200 professional image editing software?

[PYates77]

@XamioStone Pardon me sir, but the pixels inside the imaginary circle are the exact same shade of white as the colors outside the imaginary circle. Something easy you can do is cover up the blue lines. The circle disappears.

[bboybram]

@XamioStone

only the lines of the circles are blue. That visual circle is white. Ive tried to eesered it and It was white.

[billyrowe0064]

@XamioStone I'm sorry, but your argument is invalid. You haven't looked deep enough.

[hcortens]

@XamioStone you're a dumbass. the white's are what michael was comparing. which are the same. retard.

[B0obJunior]

@XamioStone You're wrong

[G3org3Master]

@XamioStone That's the point, it looks like it, to humans eyes, but it is NOT like that scientifically!

[XamioStone]

@G3org3Master You're not understanding what I said. Please re-read. :)

[G3org3Master]

@XamioStone You're the one not making sense with a contradiction. "It actually looks like that" = optical illusion.

[XamioStone]

@G3org3Master You;re not understanding what I said. Please re-read. :)

[G3org3Master]

@XamioStone You know you just failed.

[XamioStone]

@G3org3Master You're not understanding what I said. Please re-read. :)

[AmvFr34k]

@G3org3Master If you use any image editign program's color selection tool, you will see that the RGB color code of that "optical illusion" is #9bfff8, which is a very light cyan instead of the "grey" they say it is in the video.

I personally was already wondering, since in the few years I made pictures with PS, I never came across colors differing so much from what they're supposed to be.

[G3org3Master]

@AmvFr34k Yeah I know they are cyan, I don't think that's to do with the optical illusion.

[AmvFr34k]

@G3org3Master Ah, sorry then. Xamio and I assumed that you thought that this was actually an optical illusion.Basically a misunderstanding from 3 people simultaneously.

[G3org3Master]

@AmvFr34k lol it's ok

[henrytakeover]

@XamioStone um you sorta failed...

of course there's blue there

he's saying that your mind makes a circle outline

even though there is none

[XamioStone]

@henrytakeover Read my comment again.

[henrytakeover]

@XamioStone i read your comment again...

you still failed

i even looked at the picture in sai

the white in the "circle" is the same color white outside of the "circle"

As i said, the dude in the video said that your mind was picturing a very light colored blue circle in the middle.

It is an illusion

Those LINES are blue

were talking about an imaginary CIRCLE

[XamioStone]

@henrytakeover Yeah I wasn't talking about the blue lines either. You fail. Re-read bro.

[henrytakeover]

@XamioStone i am fucking reading it

the dude in the video (Vsauce host) says that the mind pictures a light blue circle

even when there isnt one

He is absolutely right. There is no faded blue circle in the middle.

It is ONLY 4 targets with the blue lines forming a circle in the middle, but there isn't really a circle, so it IS an optical illusion.

You're really just acting dumb now....

[XamioStone]

@henrytakeover Re-read bro.

[gangstervural]

And that was the end of THE MIND... =(

[xGhost153]

The thing with the Circels, is absolutely bullshit!

Prove:

1) Go to the video , press on you'r keyboard "Print Screen" key,

2) Open Paint, Press CTRL+V

3) You see the colours selection area? Good, Open it ,don't pick a colour just open it and while it's open click on the blue part of the circels and you will see that it found the bluish colour, meaning its not an illusion of you'r brain.

[rastamaniakTHC]

@xGhost153 Lol, you didn't even understand what he said.. Haha :D There is no "bluish" between the circles.

[sethboy66]

@xGhost153 The illusion is that you brain creates an imaginary circle around the end points of the blew sections of the circles not that the circle is blue.

[TheGodCraftMaster]

i cant get the playlist link to work :(

[crashnebulaon1ce]

how can i know that its not blue :3?

[artemeeb]

@Nadeeja94 exactly! vsauce is great in the field of awesomeness and rwj is great in the field of crap!

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb you still dont get the point do you? we are fine with him making money because we think that he is awesome, just like you do. the big difference is that you crossed the border to fanatism. and about your mental desease, which you do obviously have, you just confirmed my point by telling me AGAIN that i should go and suck rwj's dick. All you do is to constantly repeat that phrase and everytime you try saying something else you lack the intelligence to do it.

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 there are no other words to say to a false fan of vsauce, a rwj lover. I could try till tomorrow but I will never find a better description of your relationship with someone who steal other people videos to make money. You may observe that vsauce show you the other videos but on the account of the person who upload it in the first place. This is an awesome behavior. vsauce doesn't steal other people videos like rwj do. So you need to unsubscribe immediately from rwj

[postal2600]

I believe the first video is fake (I know the original is not, but this one is). The idea is that the mind would create the illusion based on the context. But, if you cover up the rest of the scene on the screen with some papers, for example, and leve only that square visible, the illusion should fade away, and you should see the original color. It's not the case in the first video. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[JewjuBEEkern]

i dont know know if there are many of these but this should be your new tvhing! I have always been curious as to which videos you watch and find interesting since your videos are so captivating!

[shiznition]

i totally... took a picture of the circle thing... and erased the blue... and there was no illusion... since... the blue shouldnt even be there... i should see it without it... am i wrong?

[lolocustlol]

I finished the playlist :b

[L0KO1]

close your eyes the first 10 seconds of the video hehe

[nightbreeze12]

If cleverbot and siri had a child it would be skynet.

[hellrange908]

i am going to jump off a bridge now,thanks vsauce :D

[BloodSpatterGaming]

How do I watch the playlist on my tablet?

[JakeTheAustralian]

The awkward moment when your watching this on an iPad.

[TheSaeedMirza]

[MetamorphomisK]

[89elmonster]

Fucking hate my phone

[killer3379517]

How do I view a playlist using iPhone?

[leoncio91]

@killer3379517 itubelist

[DraconicFury]

oujjjophuugy

[PEFOBE007]

vsauce sent me here

[nameless12345]

anyone else high?

[STP116]

@nameless12345 you

[skjimon]

fake i opened it in paint its light blue all the time and there is no grey circles only light blue and black bended lines

[Pyrafrost]

@skjimon no, you got it all wrong lol, the illusion is supposed to be that: because parts of the circles are blue... it fools your mind into thinking that there is one BIG light blue circle in the middle of the other 4... even though that space is really white like the rest of the background, you can see a very very light blue circle ^^

[skjimon]

@Pyrafrost wtf i dint see any large circle

[grebdews5]

@StunningLegoMachines AWESOME!!!!!!

[PauliusGe]

0:04 :D cheers to you too, Sir Michael

[artemeeb]

fuck it. you are awesome! not like that rwj shit!

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb shut up dumb fuck... rwj is awesome, so is vsauce... whats your problem with rwj?

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 rwj suck ass you idiot. vsauce gives you something to think, rwj gives you something to vomit! how dare to compare vsauce with rwj?

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb how do I dare? fuck off... yes vsauce gives you something to think and he is great, never said anything about that, did i? and rwj gives you something to laugh about, and i dont see how he ever made someone vomit. and the most important point of all: i didnt start comparing vsauce to rwj. I told YOU that you cant compare them and that they are BOTH awesome. the comparison is your thing. suck that asshole.

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 just shut the fuck up and go back to suck rwj dick! I did not compare vsauce with that random shit that rwj is! I can't compare something so awesome as vsauce with that crap rwj. really how can you like rwj and his shitty videos? And you say you like vsauce? After all the open minded videos that vsauce did you still act like an idiot and watch rwj. How the fuck is that possible? vsauce gives you videos that you can learn something from, rwj just packs some random shit

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb rwj packs FUNNY random shit, like even he himself always says. that is irony, a respectable discipline of the mind you fail to understand. and how is rwj not open minded? his purpose is entertainment, not teaching. and, of course: "you are awesome! not like that rwj shit!"- how is that not a comparison!?!?!?!? dude, get your points straight before you start an argument. and btw, if find it quiete pussy-ish of you that you diss rwj here, where he wont ever read it.

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 like I said my friend go back to your rwj dick idol. He just pack popular videos of random shit (literally) and makes funny noise. He is not funny and certainly not awesome. And this brings us to my point: vsauce is awesome and rwj is not. so please fuck off I hate peoples who consider rwj awesome like vsauce. fuck you is an insult to vsauce! YOU ARE INSULTING VSAUCE! this is what you do. so go back to rwj and suck his dick forever

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb dude, you do have a serious problem. i mean, really go see a doctor, all you can think of is other people sucking dicks. there IS HELP for you. other than that i consider this argument over, because you refuse to accept any logic and im afraid to tell, but you are no longer a fan of vsauce, but you are addicted to him. i feel pitty for you and am honestly sorry to have bothered you, since you are clearly not responsible for your actions. bye and get well soon from germany ;)

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 I'm not thinking about other people sucking dicks just you sucking rwj dick! is a big difference. And vsauce makes money with every comment we post here so shut up and continue the fight ;)

[Nadeeja94]

@artemeeb lol they're both great entertainers, just on different fields...

[DooDFace1]

@artemeeb you're comparing this with rwj? i don't think they fit in the same category, at least not in this case...

[artemeeb]

@DooDFace1 I'm not comparing it, i already explained in this discussion please read my feud with luisinator6 who is a fan of rwj. And you are perfectly right vsauce is on a whole better level than rwj like over 9000

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb well, yes, that is nice behavior of vsauce, your first valid point in this argument. but check out the description of ALL =3 videos, he ALLWAYS links them. and you have to see that vsauce, unlike rwj, is not exactly mainstream, so he can afford putting playlists instead of videos. so you cant talk of "Stealing". and now, dickhead, please tell me what makes a "true" fan? trolling any other youtuber who is successful? nice philosophy, dude :S

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 you know very well that nobody will watch those videos after they already watch them on rwj crappy show. My point is: You can't be both fan of rwj AND vsauce. You man need to decide right now that rwj is crap! Is vsauce or rwj, please decide!

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb well, yes, i know that the vast majority wont, but they didnt before either, as you have to admit. the people who watched the original upload probably will stick to them, so he doesnt take away views. in fact he promotes them, giving them even more views. and honestly, i dont see how you cant be a fan of both, i am and it works out fine??? so, no im not going to decide. in fact, i still demand an explanation of what a "true" fan is.

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 the true fan of vsauce is the one who doesn't follow rwj. I will make it simple for you, is something like this: vsauce is the good angel the angel from paradise, rwj is the demon angel the angel from hell. vsauce is frodo baggins from the shire rwj is sauron from mordor

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb lol? did rwj hump your mum or what is your thing? such hatred. like i said, you are a fanatic, not a fan. in order to make it simple for you: i, see there is no way i could reason with you, so please, leave the speaking part to your superiors(or anybody else) and get lost. =3 IS AWESOME!!!

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 you are a wood head of epic proportion and your love for the dick of rwj is scary. You are a fake fan of vsauce and a troll. You try to bring rwj crappy philosophy in a place of awesomeness. you should be ashamed of yourself but instead you continue to promote that rwj dick you love so much. And you have no arguments to justify that rwj is not the crap I'm saying it is. Go away troll! leave vsauce in peace to show us more awesome videos!

[sethboy66]

@artemeeb Lol, he is the troll? Maybe you should look at what you literally just commented.

[artemeeb]

@sethboy66 another rwj lover? off course he is the troll. i didn't go to rwj videos and start saying vsauce is awesome but he got here and start saying rwj is awesome.

[sethboy66]

@artemeeb That does not give you reason to start calling him names just because he likes something else. If I went to Europe and said I love america should I be subjected to the same treatment? No.

[Luisinator6]

@sethboy66 thank you, finally someone who shows objectivity and intelligence. i thought i was going to go mad here.

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb well, first of all: fuck you, your mother and everybody you have ever come to know. also, like i said earlier you should go and see a doctor about your gay-sexaddiction. but the one thing, that actually made me go ahead and write this comment, is that YOU called me a troll. a troll is someone who offends people out of nothing. that is YOU. ray didnt do anything to you. I just defended him, call me an anti-troll. so, fuck off and leave vsauce in peace your self, troll.

[artemeeb]

@Luisinator6 so a troll is someone who offends people? So you are a fucking troll! just read your last comment you rwj dicksucker! There is nothing wrong in being gay you idiot, just admit you like rwj cock! is obvious you have nothing better to do that speak about rwj on vsauce comment area! Just go and comment on rwj videos you troll! What rwj show to you? Just some idiot videos about retarded peoples! You can't bring no arguments for rwj, there are none! Go to rwj you troll!

[Luisinator6]

@artemeeb mind to point out exactly where i said being gay is wrong? i didnt at all. but your sexaddiction is a desease, its got nothing to do with being gay. and seriously do you expect me not to respond to a comment like yours with an offense? then there is really something fucked up in your head. you say my arguments are lacking quality and quantity? check yours, for the like 10th time you bring up the same fucking comment, just with other words (except for you cocksucking-thing)!?!

[theKidHedge]

@Luisinator6 Let's just say that this argument should stop and let's go watch Vsauce

[theKidHedge]

@Luisinator6

few things:

1. watch out what you say, because he could have some epic legend in his family that you like.

2. bieng homophobic AND liking rwj means that you are an 25 year old 5th grader who NEVER learns.

[Luisinator6]

@theKidHedge homophobic? did you even read my last comment? and about the family thing, you are absolutely right, but you have to see that i was really pissed when i wrote this comment. plus, i dare doubting any respectable family would produce anything like him. and if you read the whole argument you see that my only desire is him to shut up, leave rwj alone and enjoy this video. so i would be absolutely fine if this would end right now. btw, i just hit 16, so fuck off ;)

[theKidHedge]

@Luisinator6 I sent the watching vsause thing to both of you guys. So you can get what you wanted.

[Luisinator6]

@theKidHedge well, thank you for that one, i just dont like the second point of your other comment ;)

[ninjamuffin50]

@artemeeb its good to listen to something intelligent

[HlynurOskar557]

Kick Me In The Nuts And Call Me 'Judy'!
