Incredible Vanishing Head Illusion

BicycleRepairMan says...


It's not brain, it's eye.

Our brain "fills in" that blind spot most of the time, which is why it takes an experiment like this to discover it.

It's not magic, not a mystery and not psychology, it's basic biology.

Nor is spoonbending, levitation, cardtricks,or vanishing acts "magic". I dont think magic even exists, but this, like the above mentioned tricks and illusions, has that "wow, thats magic!" feel to it, so I placed it in magic. It also feels mysterious, and I never mentioned Psychology.

It's not an illusion.

Our blindspot isnt, but the feeling that we dont have one IS actually an illusion, because, as I say, our brain "fills in" that blank spot, and thats actually also demonstrated with the black stick in the video.
