i had to let it go through a cycle while i was watching in my peripheral because i was afraid of some scary face.

I can never unsee that video of the car driving behind a hill, and when it doesn't come out from behind and the goblin witch appears.

My first was the cursor maze. Fucking cursor maze.

That cursor maze can blow me. I was scared of playing flash games for about 3 months.

What was that?

[–]gojirra 8 points9 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's a maze through which you must move your cursor without touching any of the walls. Unbeknownst to you though, if you do touch a wall a horrible image appears along with some kind of extremely loud sound effect.

Edit:

in the third level just as the maze narrows and the victim leans in to get a better view of the pixels, then BAM!

[–]dumbledorkus 26 points27 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter if you touch the wall or not. The scary face always appears on the same level doesn't it?

[–]bobthemighty_ 24 points25 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This is correct, it's always at the same spot too, in the third level just as the maze narrows and the victim leans in to get a better view of the pixels, then BAM!

Wow...I knew about the witch, I had the sound turned off, AND the browser window scrolled down so it only displayed about half the height of the video and I still got scared...

[–]GringoDeMaio 20 points21 points ago

Anyone else find the not-so-subtle advice to have the sound turned up was a giveaway that something was amiss?

Dont. Want. To. Open. Scared.

I enjoy the people who try to make their own cheesy screamers, and the example thumbnail is of what's supposed to be the big scare.

That's nothing compared to this.

I started to scroll down, but managed to close the window fast... I'm way way way too scared to ever open it again.

P.S: turn your sound down a bit if you do dare to go on the page.

"The Pillars of Creation no longer exist. In 2007, the astronomers announced that they were destroyed about 6,000 years ago by the shock wave from a supernova.[3] Because of the limited speed of light, the shock wave's approach to the pillars can currently be seen from Earth, but their actual destruction will not be visible for another millennium.[3]"

Am I the only one who went to ebaumsworld as a kid? upvote for bringing back old memories

[–]JHStarner 27 points28 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

As a kid, you were not aware of how much a stealing bastard Mr. Eric Bauman was, thus you probably went there instead of most of the sites that had the original content. Not a slam on you at all because many people didn't know about it. But being someone who would frequent Newgrounds and Albinoblacksheep, it always pissed me off when I saw people try to show me something funny online, and they went to ebaumsworld.com instead of the wherever the original author put it. That watermark annoyed the crap out of me. So now you know, you should not link or use that website at all.

[–]irrationalNumber 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yup. ebaumsworld was a ripoff site that sourced its content entirely from Albinoblacksheep, Newgrounds and Something Awful.

[–]trevdak2 15 points16 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Wait wait wait.... this was a website that featured content from other sites?

I would NEVER EVER EVER go to a site like that. EVER.

Thank god reddit is all original content.

[–]JHStarner 12 points13 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

:P Difference between reddit and ebaumsworld is user submission vs blatant theft. ebaum and staff would take a video or animation or game from any site, slap an ebaumsworld.com watermark on it and publish as their content. They would earn money off the content, and the original creator wouldn't get anything. Reddit is users submitting stuff they found, and 9 times out of 10, giving traffic back to the origin. Though the stupidity of many people rehosting to imgur is somewhat similar.

[–]wake6n9bake 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah ebaum used to watermark the content with their own name and whatnot.

[–]khanfusion 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Reddit doesn't watermark shit, trying to claim it as its own. And go to literally any thread featuring a webcomic.... you will see people screaming for credit to be given where it's deserved, if the original link didn't already go to the site or feature a watermark informing of the creator.

[–]djyu 6 points7 points ago

As an acquaintance of Steven Lerner (creator of ABS), I back this up. Eric Bauman is a fucking d-bag.

Contrary to popular belief, your brain is actually retarded.

If you get a chance watch brain games on national geographic. TONS of "mind blown" moments.

I can't be the only one thinking what if it just turns in color for one second before it switches to black and white

I remember how cool this was when I first saw it, on a geocities page, with a counter, 8 years ago.

its black and white, when you look at the black dot in the middle while it counts down you see a coloured picture when it turns black and white again

[–]XeL09 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

make sure you stare at the black dot in the middle otherwise it wont work

[–]ezziecat 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes it will. All you have to do is stare in one place without looking away, as much as you can. The dot is just there to help you do that.

The reason you may think looking somewhere else 'doesn't work' is that once the time was up, you looked to the centre of the image. The effect works if, when it goes back to black and white, you're still looking in the same place.

If you keep watching beyond the cycle where the colors are transposed (somehow) the definition of the color frame decreases significantly.

Draw image in MS Paint. Invert colors. Stare at it for 15 seconds. Look at a white wall. OK bye.

wow, i think this is the best optical illusion i have seen so far on the interwebs. i have a feeling some neckbeard is gonna explain to me how this isnt technically an 'optical illusion' and its called something else.

It doesnt work in a .gif, because it could just be going from black and white to colour.

Could somebody explain what this is supposed to be doing? Its just a black and white castle then 15 seconds of the weird blue yellow castle thing and then back to the black and white castle.

I don't understand.

this illusion doesn't work for me. do I have something wrong with my eyes besides awful nearsightedness that got corrected with lasik 2 years ago? It just doesn't do anything for me. I've never had an issue like this with an 'illusion'.

frustrated..
