9 Optical Illusions to Test How Good Your Brain Is
9 optical illusions that will make you see things! Seeing is believing. Or is it really? Visual or optical illusions have tricked the minds of many generations throughout the centuries. Aristotle himself noticed that if you shift your stare from a moving waterfall to perfectly stable rocks, they will magically move, as well. Visual illusions are more than just fun for the audience; they can also help you find out if your brain is healthy. Bright Side has nine curiosities for you to stare at. Let us see how many of them you can figure out. We will tell what your results say about your mental health at the end of this video. TIMESTAMPS Bicycle 1:06 Café wall illusion 2:21 A fair lady 4:00 Upside down Steve Buscemi 4:55 The impossible triangle 5:52 Chessboard 7:07 Boxes 8:00 Rubik’s cube 8:38 Amazing transformation 10:05 SUMMARY When it comes to vision, your eyes are only one part of this complicated mechanism. They transmit information about the light they perceive to the brain through the optic nerve. The brain then does all the hard interpreting work. Because it gets lazy sometimes, or just too busy, it has worked out some processing shortcuts. It uses shadows, perspective, and color to correct the image it gets and decide what is what and how it works. The brain of a healthy person deceits itself. So if you can’t figure out how things are in all the illusions, it only proves the fact that you are a perfectly normal person. People who see what the deceit part of the illusion is and how it works immediately are either schizophrenics or geniuses. Their brain uses no shortcuts and doesn’t put all the details together to make things easier. People with schizophrenia cannot choose how and what they see. Genius minds can decide if they want to perceive the deceit, or not. Healthy normal people can also do it. Now that you know the secrets of quite a few illusions, you might start looking at things differently, as well.

Passengers Survived the Miracle on the Hudson
Ten years ago, the world of aviation was flabbergasted by an event that was later named the "Miracle on the Hudson." That day, two airline pilots had to use the only runway they could safely reach for an emergency landing - the narrow expanse of the Hudson River in New York City. Besides the two pilots, there were 150 passengers and three cabin crew members on board the plane. It's shocking how fast something so life-altering and scary can happen. One moment the pilots fill their jet with fuel, and the plane takes off, and two minutes later, it loses all the engine power and is about to drop out of the sky. How could such a critical situation not take any human lives? Let's figure it out. Other videos you might like: 10 Things You Should Never Wear on a Plane • 10 Things You Should Never Wear on a ...

The Biggest Mystery In New York Still Unsolved
25-year-old Dorothy Arnold was the heiress of perfume importer Francis Arnold. Dorothy got a great education and graduated from the prestigious Bryn Mawr College for women, where she majored in literature. Life was going great for the young woman. That is, until the day she mysteriously disappeared on December 12, 1910… TIMESTAMPS Dorothy leaves her room 0:54 Dorothy leaves the family’s home 1:33 Dorothy goes to Brentano’s bookstore 2:33 Dorothy waves a farewell to Gladys and heads home 2:58 Her father was afraid of damaging his business reputation 3:50 They interviewed Dorothy’s friends, acquaintances, and shop assistants 4:48 Detectives checked passenger lists of all the ships 5:20 Francis Arnold finally gave in 7:50 SUMMARY - Dorothy leaves her room and goes downstairs. She meets her mom in the main hall and tells her she’s going shopping to buy a new dress for her 19-year-old sister Marjorie’s debutante party. - Dorothy leaves the family’s home in the posh Upper East Side of Manhattan. She takes $25 with her, or about $700 by today’s rates. - On 27th Street, Dorothy goes to Brentano’s bookstore where she buys a collection of funny stories and essays. Upon leaving the shop, she bumps into her friend Gladys King. - Dorothy waves a farewell to Gladys and heads home. She decides to go through Central Park on her way. At least that’s what she tells her friend. - In the evening of December 12, Dorothy still hadn’t arrived home. But there wasn’t any immediate cause for alarm. - They suspected that someone could’ve abducted his daughter to demand a ransom from the well-off family. He didn’t want to make things more complicated by giving publicity to this story. - He also searched the girl’s room and found only one strange thing. There were burnt sheets of paper in the fireplace. He couldn’t make out the text, but there were some flyers of ships carrying passengers from the US to Europe. - Six weeks after his daughter’s disappearance, Francis Arnold finally gave in. He invited journalists for a press conference and assumed that she’d been attacked while on her way home through Central Park. - There’s also the theory that she simply ran away. It was known that she’d been feeling particularly down about the magazine refusals. In fact, it’s believed that the burnt papers in the fireplace that had been found in the early days of the investigation were letters of refusal. #dorothyarnold #mystery #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook: / brightside Instagram: / brightgram 5-Minute Crafts Youtube: https://www.goo.gl/8JVmuC Stock materials (photos, footages and other): https://www.depositphotos.com https://www.shutterstock.com https://www.eastnews.ru ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me/

These Plants Are Masters of Mimicry, Don't Eat ...
Some plants out there have mastered the art of mimicry, and they're not to be messed with! Take the corpse flower, for example—it emits an odor that smells like rotting flesh to attract pollinators. Then there's the Venus flytrap, which lures in unsuspecting insects with sweet nectar before snapping shut and devouring them. Another tricky character is the pitcher plant, which uses its pitcher-shaped leaves to trap and digest insects. So, if you ever come across these sneaky plants in the wild, it's probably best to admire them from a safe distance—eating them definitely isn't on the menu!

Triangle Technique That Saves You from a Bear A...
Imagine you're out hiking and suddenly come face-to-face with a bear—yikes! But fear not, there's a handy trick called the Triangle Technique to help you out. First, hold your arms out wide to make yourself look bigger, then slowly back away while keeping your eyes on the bear. If it charges, stand your ground and yell loudly to intimidate it. Now, bears aren't the only critters you might encounter, so it's good to know a few other tricks too. For example, if you stumble upon a snake, freeze in place and slowly back away without making sudden movements. And if you're ever caught in a rip current while swimming, don't panic—swim parallel to the shore until you're out of the current's grip. Knowing these tricks could be a lifesaver when you're out exploring the great outdoors! #brightside Credit: Nonchalant_Wanderer / Reddit Ski_drink_travel / Reddit Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

With their long necks and strong wings, swans are capable of delivering powerful blows that can cause injury. Alongside swans, other seemingly adorable creatures like dolphins, kangaroos, and even hedgehogs have their own surprising ways of displaying aggression and should be approached with caution.

What If We Become a Type 3 Civilization?
Becoming a Type 3 Civilization would be mind-blowing! At this level, we'd harness the energy of entire galaxies, basically becoming masters of the cosmos. Our technology would be unimaginably advanced, capable of manipulating space-time itself. We'd likely have colonized countless planets and possibly even mastered interdimensional travel. However, with such immense power comes immense responsibility, and navigating the ethical and moral implications of such advancements would be crucial for our survival and the well-being of the universe. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...
