NOTE: this is technically NOT the classic McGurk Effect but it demonstrates the same principle (more simply, IMHO).

INSTRUCTIONS: Play the video once while watching it, then play it again with your eyes closed. Notice something?

  • aba ada...XD

  • Without looking, it sounded like aba, aba.

    Then I looked, and it sounded like aba, other.

  • @ProfessorStephens i havent seen/heard one yet that fools me.

    i think that since i do facial animation, and have a pretty good sense for corresponding sounds and shapes, that i just wont werk for me.

  • @somebody9484 - many people do report hearing atha rather than ada for the second one; that is simply the way your brain is interpreting the audio + visual combination
