Actually, it is much more simple than that.

I watched it one day a certain period of time, and it switched directions. It just changed directions after a while. Then changes back.

It's not a real thing, it's a bullshit click-getter.

EDIT - OK I was wrong. I just watched it for a good amount of time and realized that it does work.

I watched it rotating in what I thought was two different directions, and kept my peripheral on teh shadow of the foot swinging across. Weird.

No, it's real. And with practice you can make it change directions at will. The reason it appeared random is because you blinked at just the right time, or glanced away and back and it had changed directions.

I've played with it some, and it seems that if you disrupt your view (blink, glance away quickly) when the toe is completely extended, you can force a direction change.

I'm sure I could stare at it a lot longer if it were a real women and not a silhouette.

There's nipples at least...lol.

I have no idea how practical this test is other than proving the mind can play tricks on what the eyes are seeing, but I suspect it will aid in accurately identifying zombies when the need arises. ;D

Well, as I suspected.........I am crazy because with me they both spin in the same direction, one way or the other, or each in opposive direction........love it.

Its the quantum mechanic Heisenberg uncertainty principle explained; the secret of space and science and time travel made sexier with nipples! ;D

University Science theory needs all sorts of help.

Ah! ;D

But the infinite variety and how attached is a male obsession. Plus the general way everything "Else" is attached to the whole form and figure, is like a fine wine, to be enjoyed and commented on, plus the observations of other vintages in the search for "perfection".

It's not just nipples, OHL, it's the whole package.

However, nipples take things to that next level. A woman can show as much clevage as she likes, but once she shows nipple, it's nudity.

According to the perfect ratio, the above specimens may in fact be better than perfect. Oh my goodness...

It is difficult to determine on that picture, with certainty. Because I suspect that she is arching back, that is OK though I forgive, but I will never forget! ;D
