The Invisible Truck Illusion

invisible truck illusionWouldn’t it be pretty awesome to have an invisible vehicle? You’d be like a superhero, driving around in your invisi-car! That’s sort of what today’s invisible truck illusion reminded me of… When I first looked at this illusion, I wondered what the weird black thing was in the middle of the image. Then, I realized […]

It’s a Cat Farting Rainbows!

Posted: 30 Jul 2016 08:44 AM PDT

It’s been a long, long week and I’m so ready for a little down time! For the weekend, I think we need a light and fun illusion. There’s just too much seriousness during the work week, so here’s a cat farting rainbows!

farting rainbows

Yeah, that’s right. It’s a cat farting rainbows. What more do you need to brighten your day? I sometimes wish my cat was happy and joyful enough to fart rainbows, but she’s pretty awful and evil, so I really don’t see that happening any time soon.

Don’t forget to rate today’s illusion before you go! Your ratings help me decide which types of illusions to ost each day and which ones can head right for the recycle bin.

Get a chuckle out of this cat farting rainbows? Head over and check out this guy tasting the rainbow!

Hole in the Back Body Paint Illusion

Posted: 29 Jul 2016 01:01 PM PDT

I have a pretty wicked body paint illusion for you this Friday! Some cool body paint illusions have people painted up to look like all sorts of things, from motorcycles to flowers to animals. This particular illusion, though, is more of a combination of a couple different types of illusions. First, obviously, it’s a body paint illusion. But, it’s also a classic type of illusion that makes it look like this person has a hole in their back.

Check it out…

illusion-Body-Painting-Natalie-Fletcher

The person’s pose and the paint must have both been perfect to make this illusion! I can’t even imagine how long it must have taken to get this one just right! It’s definitely a cool illusion, but I highly doubt it’s anything I could replicate. That doesn’t mean I might not give it the ol’ college try one day, though…

Love this hole in the back body paint illusion? Check out how to draw one of these holes, and don’t forget to rate your favorite illusions!

Hypno-Parenting – How One Hypnotherapist Uses Hypnosis to Manage Her Kids’ Behavior

Posted: 29 Jul 2016 09:57 AM PDT

Hypnosis has been used to treat conditions like anxiety and pain, but Los Angeles hypnotherapist and mother of three Lisa Machenberg says it can be a very effective parenting technique. She’s even given her unusual method a name – hypno-parenting.

Machenberg first started using hypnosis on her children to help them get through the night without wetting the bed, but has since then used the clinical technique to aid them deal with things like performance anxiety or focusing difficulties. The Malibu-based therapist also admits to using hypnosis on her kids and husband in order to make sure things run smoothly around the house. “I hypnotize my children and my husband to do things for my benefit all the time,” she recently told Barcroft Media. “We have a household to run. Many times, I exert influence so my children are able to get their chores done, so this house runs efficiently.”

Introducing Pooper – An Uber-Like App for Dog Poop

Posted: 29 Jul 2016 07:10 AM PDT

If you’re too busy or squeamish to pick up after your dog, you’re going to love this new smartphone app that connects you to someone willing to do it for you, for a fee.

A service that allows you to call someone to pick up your dog’s poop sounds unreal, which is probably why the announcement of Pooper has been met with skepticism. Articles claiming that the app is most likely fake have prompted the creators of Pooper to issue a statement saying that their service is real, but they are fine with all the doubts as long as it spreads the word and attracts more investors.

Here’s how Pooper works: after installing the app on a smartphone and opting for one of the monthly payment plans, a dog owner (referred to as “pooper”) can take a photo of the dog’s excrement, pinpoint its location on a digital map and call on a nearby “scooper” to come pick it up. They are then free to leave knowing that the dog’s business will be taken care of. You can opt to pay $15 a months for two scoops a day in 15-mile scoop radius, $25 for three scoops a day in a 30-mile radius, or $35 for unlimited scoops in an unlimited radius.

Japanese Company to Start Selling Tear-Free Onions This Fall

Posted: 29 Jul 2016 06:11 AM PDT

Onions may be one of the healthiest, most flavorful vegetables on the face of the Earth, but they’re definitely no fun to chop. However, your days of getting teary-eyed in the kitchen may be coming to an end as Japanese company House Foods Group prepares to launch the world’s first tear-free onion to the market.

Aptly named “Smile Ball”, because it puts a smile on your face rather than make you cry, this new type of onion is the result of two decades of research. In 2002, House Foods Group scientists published a paper in which they hypothesized that tear-inducing enzymes in onions could be weakened while retaining their full  flavor and nutritional value. Their research actually won an Ig Nobel Prize – an award handed out to honor achievements organizers consider unintentionally funny – but last year the company announced that their theory had finally become reality. Although the announcement mentioned that House Foods Group had no intention of producing Smile Ball onions commercially anytime soon, it appears the wonder vegetables will hit Japanese stores this fall.

Hobbit Sauna: Grassy Hill House Hides a Relaxing Secret

Posted: 29 Jul 2016 01:00 PM PDT


Looking part hobbit hole, part concrete bunker on the outside, this grassy knoll disguises a surprising secret. You might approach the little square window in the door expecting to see one of J.R.R. Tolkien's signature darkened interiors lined with deep-toned hand-carved wood and colorful carpets, but what greets you instead is a modern sauna, with curving built-in benches facing a fire.

Daredevil to Jump Out of an Airplane at 25,000 Feet without a Parachute

Posted: 28 Jul 2016 11:51 AM PDT

In his most insane stunt yet, professional skydiver Luke Aikins will jump out of an airplane flying at 25,000 feet without a parachute or wingsuit in an attempt to land on a special net designed to break his fall. No one has ever attempted anything like this. If he makes, it, Aikins will become a living legend, if he doesn’t…

Aikins, who has spent much of his life in the air and has over 18,000 parachute jumps under his belt, was approached about doing this extreme jump a couple of years ago by a couple of Hollywood guys looking to produce the all-time-greatest reality TV stunt. “You won’t believe these guys, they want me to jump out without a parachute,” he remembers telling his wife at the time. She said “Oh, with a wingsuit,” to which he replied “No, they want me to do it with nothing.” They had a good laugh about the preposterous proposition, but in the weeks that followed, Luke just could stop thinking about it. Could anybody actually perform such a stunt and live to tell the tale?

If anyone could, it would have to be Aikins. He made his first tandem jump when he was 12, followed by his first solo jump four years later. he’s never really stopped since, performing about 800 leaps a year. He has taught skydiving, performed all kinds of complex stunts and routines, but even when his parachute got tangled with that of another diver, he could always rely on his backup chute. That only happened about 30 times out of 18,000, but this time he would have no backup to turn to. “If I wasn’t nervous I would be stupid,” he says. “We’re talking about jumping without a parachute, and I take that very seriously. It’s not a joke.”

Man Invests $3 Million Lotto Winnings into Illegal Crystal Meth Business

Posted: 28 Jul 2016 10:25 AM PDT

Ronnie Music Jr., 45, is facing life in prison after pleading guilty to investing part of his lottery winnings into a crystal methamphetamine drug ring. In 2015, Music had won $3 million in a Georgia scratch-off lottery game. You know what they say about pushing your luck. Don’t!

Of all the things he could have done with his $3 million dollar lotto prize, Ronnie Music Jr., of Waycross, Georgia, decided to invest part of it in a drug business. Evidence presented in the case against him revealed that he had worked with a criminal group to gain access to high quantities of methamphetamine and distribute it all throughout Georgia. His co-conspirators were caught trying to sell approximately 11 pounds of meth, worth more than $500,000 on the streets, and during the investigation Music was identified as the supplier. At his home base in Ware County agents found over $1 million worth of methamphetamine, several firearms, thousands of rounds of ammunition and $600,000 in cash.

Russian Gas Station Offers Free Tank of Gas to People in Swimsuits and High Heels

Posted: 28 Jul 2016 06:57 AM PDT

A gas station in Russia’s Oblast region has been making headlines this week for organizing an unusual promotion – a free tank of gas to anyone who showed up dressed only in women’s swimsuit and high heels.

The ingenious publicity stunt took place on July 21st, in the south-western city of Samara, and only lasted three hours. Anyone looking to get a free tank of gas was invited to show up at the gas station wearing skimpy underwear and high heels. The rules were pretty simple – wear the appropriate attire, fill up the tank yourself, and go to the front desk to tell the station attendant the pump number and fuel type. Abide by this terms and you get a full tank absolutely free.

Sharp-Looking Knives Custom-Forged in Appalachia

Posted: 28 Jul 2016 08:36 AM PDT


Knives stir up mixed reactions in people. Some have a trusty hunting or fishing knife that's like a constant companion on backwoods trips. Others carry a pocket knife for those pesky little frustrations in life (plastic clam-shell packaging, anyone?). Perhaps Grampa had a knife he was given by his grandfather and left it to you--now it's part of your everyday-carry. Read more…
