Marc Settle shared a video of his child’s train track saying, “My toddler’s train track is freaking me out right now. What is going on here?!”
The tracks are the same size when they are placed on top of each other, but look very different in size when placed beside each other.Marc commented in another tweet, “The lower one is *clearly* bigger than the upper one. Until it isn’t.” While there is obviously a scientific reason behind this optical illusion, it’s still confused a lot of people with Marc’s tweets exceeding 5,000 RTs and Likes.
Paul Craven has shared a solution which is the ‘Jastrow Illusion’, which was discovered by Jastrow, an American psychologist back in 1982. He concluded that the short edge of the upper piece is compared to the long side of the lower one which gives the illusion.
