Fun! I have no choice but to make one these, and try it out now.

It's a funny toy, but if you watch this dragon in reality, you have to close one of your eyes to make the effect work.

That is so cool and interesting at the same time. Optical illusions are amazing. You mind just wants to see it a particular way and you're fooled. Great Video Andreas,
