DragonIllusionThe mind can really play tricks with what the eye sees. This short video is a great example of a really cool optical illusion.

Update: Reader Rocco points out the Grand Illusions Web site, where you can download a PDF file that contains the pattern to cut out and fold. along with instructions. Very cool! Print it on your color printer and amaze the kids!

The site has a number of other cool optical illusions worth checking out, as well.

Know of any others? Drop a line!

I have this dragon on my monitor at work, and it is just as amazing in real life as on the video.

You can download the PDF from here (http://www.grand-illusions.com/opticalillusions/dragon_illusion/). The page comes with great folding instructions.

In general, this site is a great source for optical illusions.
