- That is so cool. How do you even think of this?
- Is the picture sticking out of the wall or is it not?
Ooh. - Now my brain is really
starting to tingle. I don't like this feeling.
♪ (punk rock intro) ♪
- (FBE) Would you say that you are easily confused?
- Depends on the situation, but I guess kinda.
- (FBE) Today, you are gonna be taking on a Try Not
To Get Confused Challenge. - I'm gonna throw in the towel.
(laughs) I'm not gonna win this one. - What? I'm already confused.
How is this gonna work? - Interesting. Let's do it.
- So, he's drawing, like, a cat. Is that a cat?
Whoa! Whoa! - What?
- (gasps) Wow. That is so nice.
- Huh? - I've seen this one already!
Oh, I love these. - Wow! That's so dope.
- It's a really cool effect. The only part I'm confused about
is how they're able to draw it so well.
- (FBE) We're gonna be having you rate these clips on a scale
from one to five based on how confusing you think they are.
So, how confusing do you think this was?
- Yeah, that was confusing. I mean, on a scale of one to five,
I'd probably give it a four. - Two. I'll say two.
- I'd give it a one. It was pretty easy to tell
since I've already seen it before. - I give it a two.
I wouldn't give it a one just because I didn't understand
how they're able to draw it so well. - Honestly, a four.
My mind's like, "Whoa." - This is low-key a four,
because how does it even work when you're just drawing lines
and you just go like that? - (FBE) That video's an example
of line moiré effect. And these are
two superimposed patterns. And by moving the top layer
of the moiré pattern, it appears to move.
- Wow. Something like, "Uh-huh. Yeah, I get it.
No, I don't."

- Ah. I've seen this before. - Oh! That is so cool!
Okay. Oh my gosh.
- It's so cool. How do you even think of this?
- Is the picture sticking out of the wall or is it not?
Ooh. - No way. (chuckles)
Oh my gosh.
- Yeah, if you're in person, it doesn't have the same effect
as if you were recording it. - I have actually seen one of those
at an illusion museum in Japan. As confusing as it was
looking at it through a camera, it is just as confusing
looking at it with your own two eyes. - I think I've seen certain things
like that before, and they're always confusing to me.
So yeah, I'd probably give that a five.
- Probably a one, only 'cause I see it.
- I'd give that one a two. It was definitely
a little more confusing than the cheetah/tiger one.
- I actually would say a good four.
I don't know how people figure this stuff out. (chuckles)
- One. I understand it completely. - Three, because I do understand
how depth and shading can sort of affect your perception.
I honestly really like that one. I wanna see that in person.
I wanna do it myself.
- Mm-mm. I don't like that. I don't like that.
- Oh, this is giving me Five Nights at Freddy's vibes.
- How do people figure these things out?
- See, the painting one made sense, 'cause you saw it.
But even when I see this one, the whole inner thing,
I don't get it. - I'm lost on that one. (laughs)
I have nothing to say. I can't even try to explain that one.
- Again, a one. Same thing as last time.
It makes sense. - I'm going with a three.
- I give that one a three. It was like, "Huh?"
But it wasn't to the point where I was like, "Mm-mm. No way."
- I give that one a three. - I'm gonna give that one
a solid five, 'cause I really don't know.
- I give that a four, 'cause I can understand how the eyes follow you,
because there's dolls and when you're walking,
regular dolls, their eyes follow you. I just don't get the head.
- (FBE) If we move around when viewing a solid object,
our brain knows how the object we're looking at should behave.
However, the dragon gives us the wrong kind of clues,
because we misinterpret what its shape is.
We assume that the nose of the dragon is pointing towards us
when, in fact, its head is actually concave.
- So, they tricked my brain. My brain's mad right now.
I can sense it.
- Is that a cake? Oh. (laughs)
- (chuckles)
That's just... what? - Okay, half of it's a square,
half of it's a circle.
- Turn it back around please, sir.
- No! That's not right. - I wanna see the other side again.
Oh, he did! He turned it back around! Ohhh. Okay.
- Oh, is the illusion it's an oval on one side
and then the other side, it's a square?
- (chuckles) What? Now my brain is really
starting to tingle. I don't like this feeling.
- He's looking at it from a certain angle.
It only works from that angle. I think one bump is higher
than the other maybe? - That one's also a four.
The thing that's confusing is how are both sides dipping?
How does that work? - I kind of understood how it worked,
so I'm gonna give it a two. - A four. I would give that a four.
- I was trying to hang in in the first few,
but now I think I'm gone. Let's give it a five.
- I don't know. A four? - Still a one.
- (FBE) This is called an ambiguous optical illusion mug,
circle or square. And it's all a matter of perspective
and viewing angle. - He had me in the first half.
- They had us the first half. I'm not gonna lie.
- I was like, "Oh, yeah. It's a nice mug. Yay."
No. He had different plans for us.
- (laughs) What?
I-- words are failing me at the moment.
- I don't know where to look, 'cause everywhere I look, it moves.
And then it stands still when I look at it.
- People are supposed to say it's supposed to move this way.
But honestly... I don't see it.
- Ohh. My brain is looking at this six different ways
at the same time. - It's a still image.
- It's supposed to look like it's moving.
But, okay, so when I blink, it moves. But then, when I just stare at it,
it doesn't move. - I've seen it so many times.
I think it's confusing, 'cause it doesn't work on me.
- I'd give that one a four. Almost a five.
It almost got me like, "What?" - I still think it's a one.
I understood it, though. - Five. (chuckles) Straight up five.
- Give that one a four as well. - I'd give it a three.
I pretty much know how it works. But also, it's like,
when you look at it, it's still spinning.
- I'm gonna give it a one. Everybody tells me, like,
"Oh my god. It's moving." And I'm like, "Where?!"
- (FBE) This is an image, not a GIF.
And the more that you move your eyes, the more that the image seems
to be moving. And if you fixate on a point, it'll stop.
The colors and the shape of the image enhance this fact.
- That's why the purple one wasn't moving!
'Cause I wasn't paying attention! I'm so sorry, purple.
You didn't deserve that.
- All right. You might've confused. - Oh, you saved the best one for last.
Okay. What? - Oh, no.
Why would you do that to yourself, though?
- Why would you get that on your head?
- It has to be shaded in a certain way for it to look like there's a tunnel
going down his head. - If this is one of those things,
where it only looks cool from that angle,
imagine someone standing behind you and just not even getting it.
- Pew! That was a five. That was a big five.
I could put my earrings in there. He'd be the best friend to have,
'cause you could just put anything you want.
- I was just planning to say five for the [censored] of it, but...
- (various) Awww. - ...it's still a one. I'm sorry.
- That's a one. Cool tattoo, but not confusing.
- I give it a four. (laughs) I don't know!
- Let's give it a four. - That's a four.
I can't not see him have a dent in his head.
It looks like there's a tunnel going down his head still.
- (FBE) So, those are all the clips that we had to show you today.
So, overall, what'd you think about going through some
of these confusing illusions? - I guess my brain does
get confused easily. (laughs) - It's like every illusion,
you see them, you get confused, but then your brain kind of
comprehends it. The only one I'm still thinking
about it is the one with the ball.
That one didn't make sense at all. - Brains can be tricked pretty easily.
And that's kind of scary, because if I walk down the street
and I reach out to grab this man's hole head,
and it's just smacking my hand, I don't know what I'm gonna do.
