Mighty Optical Illusions

Ski Jumper Illusion

David Bianchini sent this photo in his email to me. Unfortunately he included no description, but I believe it’s obvious that this sportsman below, is ski jumper taking his jump. It’s really funny how someone captured him flying in the air in the right position behind this lamp. It looks like he crashed directly with his head to the lamp. Pretty funny! This reminded me of the question I always asked myself: How do these guys have guts to make their first jump?! It’s obvious all of them had to take their first jump one day or another, but how do they manage to stay calm, and not go crazy in the air, flapping their hands, panicking etc. Anyone here trained this? Please share your thoughts if you are/know some professional ski jumpers. I’d really like to know! After we solve this, check these sportsmen that participated in optical illusions as well: walking on water illusion, and perfect shot.
