you can tell he cuts the video to replace the shape with a different one in between 13-15 seconds

why do some people continue to insist that this is real..I HAVE tried this and it DOESN'T work. For those who are lazy and don't want to actually do it, in the black and while sketch that he shows, take a peice of tape, string, wire, etc... And put it up to your monitor and measure that width of the left table top....Now compare the length of the tape,wire,string that you measured on the right table. Doesn't come close!

FAKE.... And a bad one at that!

As a PhD student of table top drawing, I can tell you that this is indeed real. It is called the [insert term you pulled out of your a$$ here] effect.

Cinsidering the aspect that each table is in, the actual shape of the tabletops appear to be different but are actually equal. It's the aspect that the table legs create that makes this illusion work. The second time he proves them the same, there is no cut or edit in the video.

@CollinSmith lol... it has to do with perspective and the angle of the shot... notice he never actually shows the trick from above?

interestingly, the black and white "here's how it's drawn" pic is horrbly, horribly wrong. nowhere close to the same dimensions. yet the colored version is pretty close screenshot + photoshop trace to see.

I can't decide whether this is fake or just really lame

@olorofl Message me and I will send you a scanned copy of the actual drawing and the proof cutout. It's real. Lame? Well, that's totally your opinion. It's all good.

@olorofl Well that's just like, your opinion, man.

Actually, this is a film trick. The vertical/horizontal proportions of the clip are intentionally messed with. So, although the tables ARE the same, after f-ing up the clip by shrinking it horizontally, you get this crap. LAME!

@wildseraphim21 Put your fingers on the screen and you can measure the sizes yourself. It's not fake.

shit scare video

its an illusion because of the way the legs are drawn. The shorter legs on the one on the left give the illusion of distance, so your mind thinks its longer. The one on the right has different length legs up front, making it look shorter and wider.

witchcraft I tell ya!!!
This is so NOT FAKE. If you don't believe it, draw it yourself or pause the video and use your fingers to measure the lengths of the sides.
