All of these lines are straight and it’s sending people’s brains into meltdown
Of all the optical illusions we’ve featured on these pages over the years, this one is right out of the top drawer. So simple, and yet so very, very bamboozling.
It went viral again on Twitter after it was shared by @ih8rts.

Just in case that’s tricky to see, here it is again.
Absolute stinker!

If you’re after an explanation of exactly what’s happening, this might help.
the lines ur seeing r just uneven patches of light grey boxes – when ur not focused on them ur brain catches the pattern but when u look directly at them it’s less obvious cuz they arent actually clearly defined lines
the side by side highlights some grey patches idk if it helps pic.twitter.com/xB57io2q6W
