Finger Face Illusion

Thinking “where the heck is optical illusion here“, ayeh? It’s right in front of you actually! If you observe this person’s face from up close, you’ll notice it has no eyes, nose nor mouth. How can this be, when it looks perfectly normal (apart from it being just a cartoon). The answer is beneath the surface – the author, obviously talented son of a gun, managed to fool us by making multiple meaning illusion. The fingers are making illusion of a face! Simple, right? But how many of you would notice this immediately, if I hadn’t written about it? Be honest…

  1. wow thats sweet!

    It reminded me tho, about the pix of like the lady on the forehead and such is there a way u can show them cuz theyr really good illusions, but not have them on the widget? I have 4, 6 and 8 year old sons who i dont want to see that on the widget.

  2. That is so cool! I don’t think I would ever be able to figure that out if you hadn’t of said that!!!

    This is so cool!

  3. Perhaps the Worst illusion yet, so bad I felt compelled to comment. It doesn’t even look that much like a face and what are the arms doing? Great site though, keep it up guys :)

  4. When I first saw this in my google widget, I thought it was a comical cartoon drawing of a big face… (like the ones you see done at fun fayres(sp?) with the features exagerated. The arms were the broad chin, the gap between the elbows was that little dimple thing (or whatever it’s called). The dark collar is his mouth, and then the small features of his face with the hands and fingers.

  5. Not trying to be a downer, the illusion is cool, but give us some credit: it’s not terribly difficult to see that the “face” is made out of only fingers.

  6. wow thats it… honestly, i knew that those were his hands but i thought they were like that Freud illusion with the ‘whats on a mans mind’ type thing… guess not. cool illusion nonetheless…

  7. I don’t really see the face in the fingers… I see the eyes but the rest kinda just looks wierd. Oh well, can’t get em all I guess

  8. Wow that is really clever… but yeah, I would have got it by myself, especially with the title…

    please tell me I got first comment!

  9. it doesnt even look like a face from far away!!? its no illusion. just some hands, which you could probably do in reality, with your fingers and a ‘blank face’ behind them!

  10. I have a widget from Google wich always shows your illusions in a smaller thumbnail. There I couldn’t see the optical illusion, but now I do. It’s quite funny, though.

  11. Omg! I realised it by the fact his arms were facing towards his head, I normally try to figure it out before I read the blog to make things more challenging; keep up the good illusions!

  12. i didnt get it at first but after i read it i noticed it didnt have a face. but there r better illusions.. wasn’t so interesting.

  13. its the way that his fingers are positioned his fingernails make up his eyes and is “nose” is inbetween his two index fingers great illusions

    ps. i love your site vurdlak

  14. I can’t really see the illusion.
    If i try very hard i can kindda imagine it being a face, but i actually only see some fingers in a weird position

  15. Nah i didn’t see it:( I just thought, sheesh he has weird hands. I guess even before i read it it was pretty obvious what the illusion was gonna be but i still didn’t spot it! whoops.

  16. I always look at the optical illusion and then read the text….I noticed that there was no face, only fingernails and a sort of imaginary nose, along with shading on the fingers for eyebrows. The real illusion is who has fingers that can bend like that?

  17. First!

    Well, It was quite strange from a distance, but getting up close I do see the illusion… I wonder how much time it’s creator had on his… fingers…

  18. shutup Smelly this thing is cool…creepy, but cool

    *yeah right….*
    * =^^= *

  19. I don’t want to look like a know it all but I knew the fingers were making the face!

    It is still very creative and imaginative and a teeny bit weird!!
