I suspect that the best illusion ever is here - also by Ramachandran - I haven't gotten two large mirrors to try it yet, but an out of body illusion has to be pretty impressive.

The brain isn't assuming anything. It's processing what it sees. The brain can't see anything but straight lines because the vantage point in this clip is such that the trapezoidal room appears square. More social science bullshit.
wow everyone who makes fun of this guy's accent or moustache are a bunch of fucking losers while this guy is making THOUSANDS of dollarrrRrRrRrs. while your sitting at home on your fat asses wanking off to porn and crying and eating twinkies all day.
For those that are wondering, that's V. S. Ramachandran discussing the illusion. He's written some amazing books, like Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind, if you want to read some really interesting stuff about bizarre brain damage and such.
This happens, because the Video is not 3D. In 3D you will see, that the room isn't normal. Our brain convert 2D to 3D and thats not possible everytime.
@Crustenscharbap Naw man, I've been in one of these room and observed the illusion. It's freaky. I saw it at the wizards castle in Orlando FL. Closed now.
@littlesometin It's top rated because it's funny. Lighten up :). Seeing as you're from Fiji, I'll overlook your grammatical and spelling errors and won't use them as a measure of your intelligence. (Y)
