    Brainteasers

    Although these aren't word games, I thought they were interesting. These are just a few of the teasers, there are many more of these.

    Which direction is the rider going in, towards you or away from you?

    Stare at the lobsters eyes long enough and the broken plate will seem to mend itself.

    These two appear to be moving, though they're not.
    My eyes hurt. Haha.

    Let's see if my above post is deleted without explanation. Wouldn't be the first time.

    First, these aren't brain teasers, but optical illusions. There's a difference.

    Second. Awesome:

    These aren't what I would consider Brainteasers, these are all one of my favorite psychological phenomena, Optical Illusions. You might pull up more if you search that. But if you guys like this stuff, let's make this just straight up psychological fun. You guys totally have to see this. It's a really cool card trick, I think you'll like it.


    There are plenty more things like this at Quirkology.com. Too much fun, and I hope they make more!
