Don't stop watching once you see the green dot, they actually start disappearing if you watch even longer. Wait even more and they show up again.

EDIT: if you think the gif changes, just look at the outside, rather than the plus sign and you'll see it doesn't change. I've had a few of my buddies think it was changing once they started looking at it.

This was used on Cracked to explain the Bloody Mary phenomenon. It's still absolutely awesome to watch though.

Its all about how our eyes work. The afterimage always shows the colour that is complementary to the colour of the image. Complementary colours are those that are exact opposites in the way the eye perceives them.

Those 3 red pixels that turn up on one of the frames to the left piss me off.
