[@jjackandbrian5624]

Fun fact... birds can't move their eyes in their head, so they use their neck muscles to stabilize their vision. That's why you see birds bobbing their head when they walk, it's because they keep their head still to maintain a steady image, then snap forward quickly onto the next position. It's similar to Steve's analogy about looking at trees when riding the train or in a car.

I can consciously contract my pupils and make them bigger or smaller on command. Also the left over muscles that used to move our secondary eyelids or any muscle in my body for that matter. What will that get me?

"You need to cross-eye so the images overlap and becomes a 3d image" Instructions not clear. Which of the 4 pencils were supposed to be 3d? Nice vid as always

[@amountedak9246]

The 2 middle pencils are supposed to merge but its really hard to keep it like that i had a hard time doing it

[@trevorcollins435]

It helps to move your phone closer to your face, or it helped me anyways 😊👍

[@davedevosbaarle]

It also helps when you put your hands on the sides of your field fo vision, blocking the left image for your left eye and the right image for your right eye.

[@Dr.Funknstein]

It's supposed to look like 3 pencils so that two of the four are overlapping and it will look 3D

[@Jj82op]

The pencil didn't quite look 3D to me but it's a cool idea

[@CKILBY-zu7fq]

Brilliant, I see what your saying, but 👁 experience opposite. When I see the 2 pencils the become 3 and its the tips that are last, but when you tilt it, the become one at the same time. Cool.

Holy macaroons, Batman! Thank you for making this video! I have noticed that when I have an image burned in and I close my eyes (computer monitor makes a white rectangle when my eyes are closed), the white burned in image will rotate in the opposite direction. I have always wondered why it does that. I have experimented with it intently and never really had a good explanation. I'm pretty dang sure this right here is the explanation. Wonderful! Thanks!

[@andypope885]

Okay this just explained something I've been wondering about for so long I just archived it...when I was a kid I noticed that looking up at a drop ceiling and spinning around resulted in a "chopping" image. Like jump jump jump instead of a smooth rotation. Based on this video, it seems like the nice pretty squares tricked my brain into thinking that the pattern was supposed to be staying still, and the eye roll was compensating until it couldn't keep up, then snapping back and reevaluating the image. There's one of my own personal oldest life mysteries solved. Thank you sir!

[@jimbeam7636]

Holy shit is that what that is

[@maxthexpfarmer3957]

Yeah, I was so confused about that when I was a kid!

[@NoahLoftier]

Your eyes suddenly rotated back every time they saw the square? Wow

[@polycrystallinecandy]

@@NoahLoftier no, they rotate back once they hit their range of motion. The aim is to project a stable image on the retina, which can only happen while the eyes are rotating. Snapping back causes momentary destabilization of the image, but it becomes stable again once the eyes start rotating again from the start.

[@TurtleMoonTube]

eyes maybe rotating (back and forth) and brain trying to hold image still so you can "see" the ceiling by making it still, instead of just seeing the spin. Like when you try to see a car passing by you pan with head. So, rotating eyes is like panning but with rotation.

[@TheKitsuneOnihane]

I have a very specific rust-colored pattern shaped like a "y" in my right eye. When I was younger, I was confused about why the pattern changed until I heard, "Oh yeah, my eye rotates over time" by someone else. I did eventually learn it was just a thing our body does to focus. What I didn't know, is that I could learn to do it myself. Fun skills that will be added to my "to learn" list. It'll go well with my wiggling ears.
