The haze went away as soon as i looked at the dot

UR eyes just blur so its harder to see, so i think that ur eyes revert to more primary colors. just a guess

lol, it doesn’t work for me! all I can see is a cyan colour circle from that mars illusion
If anyone was wondering how this works: If you’ve done some optical illusions where you look at something for 30 secs the n tare at a blank wall, or have looked at the sun/bright light then looked away, this works the same way. Staring at the image “burns” an afterimage (the same image w/ reversed colors, blue becomes orange, etc.) in your eye. When you are staring at the black dot, you are burning the reverse of the haze on your eye, but w/ colors reversed. Since it is grey-scale, the haze, both the reversed afterimage and the image itself, start canceling each other out. This makes it look like the haze is disappearing.
It works by you blind spot in the back of your eyeball. If you stare at the middle B in B A R B A R A you will notice that the first B starts to fade away. That is you blind spot. It is a space in the back of your eye that the retina does not cover. It is also the place where you optic nerve meets your eyeball, where the nerve carries the picture up to the back of your brain, flips it over, and then you see it (obviously happening very, very, very, very fast).
In order for you to see, your eyes have to move back and forth, because a part in your eye (I forget) sees in still images, which changed when the eye shifts. I got this from my physics teacher last year, I didn’t explain it exactly, but that’s the gist of it.
I saw the worm thing 2. its really small coming out of the black circle
my eyes watered. @_o :3
it didnt work 4 me xxkooljessxx
the grey bit disappered in 10 secs for me too. i c no black worm though!

Took me 5 sec lol
coolio mahoolio!! it did go away– but i do have 2 admit this is not as coolio as your others =]
haha coolz
DECENT!!!
Now thats an illusion!
I want my 30 seconds back
You just wasted another 30 seconds commenting.
THERE WAS NO WORM!?!?!?
When I looked, there was no haze. I stared at it for about ten seconds until I realised the picture hadn’t loaded. ;_; Nice illusion though. If you you could do that with homework and make it disappear…
I think that just makes you cross-eyed or something
I love it!
thats soo weird…who thinks of these things anyways?!?
Hey, it worked o.O. Most of te ones I see don’t.
yeah.. the haze disappears but also the dot turns into 2 little black dots that move away from each other.. you just have to focus real hard on the black dot.. it will transform!!
Maybe you accidentally crossed your eyes :P
thats pretty cool there is a wierg after image!!
That was cool.
This happens to me everyday. If I stare at something for more than 15 (not 30) seconds, everything around it will start to disappear. If I look at things at night, they disappear within 5 seconds!
Indeed, it affects me as it does aaron. For example, if I stare at a star in the night sky for long enough, all the others around it will fade out.
Freaking awesome…
Have notices guys that when you take a peak at the “edge” of the residual circle, it seems a bit like a sunrise. No matter which side you look at. I mean, wether it is South, North, East or West.
Also, after maybe 20 seconds, I noticed the “thing” becoming sort of hemispherical with the “periphery” neatly defined. That is, forming a very sharp boundary line.
Strange!
I did not smoke anything. I sware.
Could be only old age :-) I am 62 years old.
if i move my head is see the hze, and i can make it disapear too.
Something is wrong with me. The whol page got hazy. :))
its just you, blackguy.
Weird but cool
@#$%$ Has some dirty language XP
It got whiter & brighter. It looked like a solar eclipse, then it went almost completely white, but brighter than the white area around it.
I stare at lamps and pictures and stars and things to make them disappear like this. I’ve talked to other people about it to see if they’ve ever done anything like that before, but they all thought I was insane. Its pretty awesome to see that its actually a know illusion!
the haze gone..
whoa amazing!
Hello,
pffffffffff, and again, I watch, I watch, I watch, nothing is dissapearing.
When I did it a white dot flaoted around it LOL!
it’s not totally disappearing instead moving.. like how a hurricane moves, it swirls.
Hey Whitney, don’t stare at lamps cos you will burn out your retinas, although I expect you already know that right?
nice
IT MAKES YOU CROSSEYED AND YOU LOSE CLOSE IN PERIPHEAL VISION, THE HAZE TOTALY DIAPPEARS THIS HAPPENS WHEN YOU STARE AT ANYTHING TOO LONG, TRY IT OUTSIDE!
i stared at this 4 2 mins and I see NO DIFFERENCE!!! THE DOT IS STILL THERE!!! It did NOT vanish.It didn’t even flinch.
The HAZE will disappear, NOT THE DOT.
Yeah, and plus, you have to be sure your eyes don’t wiggle in the slightest, otherwise you might see the haze and your brain realizes that it’s still there and it’ll return.
Or I could just go cross-eyed and it goes away anyway, lol.
Cool 2nd comment?
It’s very hard to make my eyes not snap back into focus.
Woah… I can see forever with this website!
Cool illution. After 30 seconds I still saw a little haze even after 30 seconds, though.
