BEWARE: THE IMAGES IN THIS VID CAN ACTUALLY SCREW UP YOUR BRAIN...AND VISION I squinted my eyes and covered the screen and looked away when I was watching this video by Tom Scott because I dont want to have colored vertical and horizontal lines ingrained in my vision because my brain got fried from staring too long at the images in the video. So I suggest you do the same and look away. No, seriously. Dont look too long or youre going to start seeing stuff thats not actually there. Its called the McCollough effect which basically means black and white gratings can appeared colored after you stare at red and green gratings. Its an aftereffect, so your vision of things will change after a period of induction. Wikipedia explains: For example, if someone alternately looks at a red horizontal grating and a green vertical grating for a few minutes, a black-and-white horizontal grating will then look greenish and a black-and-white vertical grating will then look pinkish. The effect is remarkable for often lasting an hour or more, and in some cases after prolonged exposure to the grids, the effect can last up to three months. Dont say we didnt warn you. Do not look at the images in this video for too long.
