How Normal is your Brain???

If your brain works normally this is cool.
This is another example of an amazing illusion!!! The last sentence is so true.


If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating pink dot, the dots will remain only one color, pink.

However if you stare at the black " +" in the center, the moving dot turns to green.

Now, concentrate on the black " + " in the center of the picture. After a short period, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see only a single green dot rotating.

It's amazing how our brain works. There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don't disappear. This should be proof enough, we don't always see what we think we see.

Interesting...But it didn't work totally. I saw the green dot, but the pink ones only vanished two at a time, the rest stayed. Also, concentrating on the moving one, they weren't all pink. I could still see the purple dot in it. Is that proving that my eyes don't miss much.

It could be at that. It means what I see is really what I see, not an illusion.

@Dante
It's doing that because after saying what I did, it's thrown your concentration and you are trying too hard to actually see it still there.

It's all in your minds set on things. If you tell yourself that it will happen, it will, if not, it won't. This test is a perfect example of that as well. It's not what you see, but what you think and believe. It's what you've been told.

That's very freaky, I must go and use my brain some now...
