Kokichi Sugihara’s Optical Illusions
“You have two eyes. Each eye sees a slightly different world. (Put a finger in front of your face, switch from one eye open to the other and that finger will shift, just a little bit.)

He makes videos that trick your brain into seeing things that you know, you absolutely know, can't happen.”
