The second I saw the matchbox transcend the laws of time and space I was glad I decided to click on this video
That matchbox and ruler crossed over into the 4th dimension.
JanetFunkYeah, and the wooden Rule stops and has the window keep going.
Cheers from John, Australia.
PS: I think the Match Box should be painted in TARDIS colours Raul Petrascu.
The second I saw the matchbox transcend the laws of time and space I set down my Beer and vow to NEVER Drink again !

If you're drinking beer, then perhaps you should switch to something more palatable, like a fine wine.
The match box changed me from disliking every video. I went back and apologized to the CZcams
2021, we have AI, quantum computing, deep fakes, CGI blockbusters... and you blow them all away with a bit of carboard. Absolutely top quality TV that hasn't lost a beat in 30 years.
🤣🤣🤣...suee
I used to love Rob Morrison and Dean Hutton when I was a youngster.
They lead me to love science and nature and engineering. I am now an engineer.
They never dumbed it down like all modern science shows do. They always kept it interesting and made you marvel at science, physics and nature. Truly wonderful.

This does not blow them all away. Not even close.
There's so much crap on CZcams, and the net, with suspect graphics and misleading claims about how amazing something is but turns out to be a load of rubbish. Yet you get something like this which is so simple and low tech yet really does blow your mind. Brilliant.
@@Jourmand1r that's a mean saying bro.
Dankisimo
That was totally uncalled for.
i've never seen such good quality of short videos like these ever! it may look bad with all the low tech graphics but the content and the quality of the presentation is absolutely fantastic.
100% agree with OP.
so much crap, yeah, like old idiots like mark who constantly bash the new generation, idiotic at best.
I can force my brain to see through most of these tricks, like the rotating inverted mask or the two vases, but it was really hard with this one. Very good illusion.
I could see through it, but once I did, I didn't really want to, especially with the matchbox and ruler. It looks way cooler with the trick.
I managed to see it rotate with and without the matchbox. But it was much cooler with the matchbox, when I wasn't concentrating.
That's one of the coolest optical illusions I've ever seen
I found this to be much easier than the mask or vases somehow. Very first go-around I noticed the edge was flat instead of having any depth like proper beams should, instantly jogged my brain into recognizing it was a 2D paper of a trapezoid.
Same, I forced myself to watch one end of the window as it turns around the back and eventually it clicked. But it's not one of those things you can't unsee. The second you loose focus or the camera changes the illusion takes over straight away. Actually the matchbox coming round the front was the most confusing part.
I can usually work my way through an optical illusion if I try hard enough, but this one completely defeats me. My mind is blown.
Amazed, right here in the village in Africa.

Thanks for the information.
I've been watching these videos for several years now, but all I knew about them was that they were recorded in Australia and the time frame was in the 1970s.
We didn't have this show in America when I was growing up.
Probably because it exposed actual science that the PTB were using to deceive the public.
And thank you for uploading them to y/t.

On ya cobber. You're welcome mate.
Thankyou Deane. Not only did you blow my mind with this, but you blew it back to my 1970's living room. For 5 minutes I was 10 again! You and Rob are absolute legends.
Very kind of you - Rob
So glad I stumbled across this. I remember watching this show as a kid in the 80s! I learned so much from it!
You didn't stumble across it. You were profiled and matched to it by CZcams. That is invasive AI being used (without your consent) and shows just how well it works with advertising. It works the same way.
Eg., you thought you just "stumbled across this" ad for just the product you were just thinking of buying and because you first thought of it "yourself" that must mean you really want it. Right?
Nope. The idea was already planted in your head by "Recommended for you" several months ago.
You must be a scream at parties, Marcus.
@@adamlacey81 Where did you get that idea? CZcams must have implanted it into your brain when you were conceived. I'd be careful if I were you, they're coming for yo-

Marcus Anderson It’s whatever you want it to be for the world is whatever context you give it.
Another aspect that helps to fool the brain is that the brain also would assume that the smaller end was farther away than the larger end, so when the smaller end is actually closer to us our brains don't know what to do so assumes that the window is oriented the opposite way. Very cool illusion!
Good comment. This helped me visualize what was happening more clearly.
I think you could still have an illusion of oscillation even if the two ends are equal, but the apparent angle of oscillation would be 180 degrees (or at leat much closer if we allow for true perspective). So maybe the apparent angle of oscillation (smaller than 180 in this example) relates to the ratio between the smaller and larger ends.
Probably, but when the smaller end is the smallest both when it's farther away AND when it's closer, that exaggerates the effect. The weirdest effect was when the ruler was put in the hole: My brain did all kinds of things with that ruler! As if to say, "WTF is going on here??!!!"
JustWasred3HoursHere It's like the brain is saying yeah I know I'm doing a booboo with the window or whatever it is, but the revolving matchbox and rotating ruler - those are real so I'll turn the moving window into a ghostly image which these things take priority over.
The brain is really strange and mysterious. Have you seen _THIS_ illusion? czcams.com/video/z9Sen1HTu5o/video.html
Now, at first you're going to think, "There's NO WAY that those two squares are the same shade!". But, do what I did to convince myself: Do a screen grab, bring it into a paint program, cut out a square from one of the two areas and bring it next to the other area. You'll see that they are, in fact, the same shade. It's quite the puzzler!
Great Australian Show that fascinated children into going into science studies over 30 years ago, Thank you Rob Morrison and Deane Hutton
Okuh. Window going back and forth. With you so far...
Matchbox is going back and... Hold on now...
Okay that was weird but now comes the ruler...

I've heard this show was cancelled because it killed too many cats.... :oP
hahaha....haha...ha...hmm.... I'll see myself out...
I can force my brain to do it correct way maybe for a second, but then it breaks. It relly doesn't like my interpretation of what it sees. The one with matchbox attached just make it more wow.
movax20h, I guess the fact that people that have not the background we have only see a rotating window is proof of the conditioning we have as a part of the, shall I say, Western World or perhaps those of us that live in houses. I liked this so much I have sent it to all my friends to stuff with their heads as well as mine.
Cheers from John, Australia.
Have you ever held a spoon up in front of you and tried to imagine it bend like the orphan did on the matrix.
You can’t. But do it again with your eyes closed.
Anything’s possible.
Southern Fun SPOONT. Explain?
We just have to admit that we've found one more thing that we have uncommon with isolated tribesmen.
Focus on the upper edge, try to ignore the red, while looking at everything that you can with your peripheral, it's even more trippy since some times just a few milliseconds it switches to the foreground, before going back.
Thanks for getting these episodes back up Deane - I spent many afternoons expanding my mind watching the Curiosity Show
This is probably the segment I remember most vividly from watching the Curiosity Show on TV. It's still amazing. Thanks for sharing it here!
Thanks Rob. Thanks Deane.
I remember that voice. This brings back memories of early childhood TV shows.
Thanks Rob and Deane, I grew up loving this show back in the late 80s and now that you’ve uploaded it to CZcams, I’m excited to be able share it with my own children.
Many thanks - much appreciated - Rob
This is the first time seeing this, and I'm speechless...it's an amazing illusion. I wish my brain could make sense of it & see it actually rotate.
Think of it as 2d when a trapezoid and 3D as a door or window. See if that helps. That’s how my mind sees the difference.

This has got to be my favourite clip from this programme. Awesome!
I love and always remember this segment when I first saw it all those years ago. The ruler turning back inside itself on the return swing was amazing.
I remember this show from the 80’s growing up in Oz. Illusion still works well! Nostalgic to see the old wooden rule & redheads too...
I think that is probably the best illusion I’ve ever seen, and it’s even weirder that if someone watches it who hasn’t seen a window before then to them it’s not an illusion, what a strange thing our brain is.
If someone hasn't seen a window before, they are probably very primitive and most likely, don't have the language skills to express what is happening.
this was one of my favourite shows after school as a kid.
so glad to see it again.
OMG, watching this is a blast from the past. Thanks for being on youtube!
Aww this reminds me of when I was obsessed with optical illusions in 6th grade! I was so fascinated by them! I remember going to the library and getting books about optical illusions. This video brought those childhood memories back 😅
THANKS DEANE! I'm an old Ausi who lives in Canada now, I enjoy your shows!
Wow. This is amazing. This man came before his time, he would own CZcams.
Thanks so much Dr's Morrison and Hutton for uploading all of these bite sized pieces of _curiosity_ , particularly for those of us who missed the original program, definitely subbed!
Thanks for your comments. Please share the good news about our CZcams channel with your friends czcams.com/users/curiosityshow Deane.
@@CuriosityShowPeople still watch these. 😮
The key to seeing through this illusion is to focus on the smallest corner of the box so that you do not lose perspective of where it is. The reason it's hard to see what the box is doing is because it is playing with your depth perception so if you don't look at what is camoflaging the orientation of the box then you can see it.
or when he uses the ruler focus on the real shadow the ruler casts and it quickly breaks the illusion
@@chrisliveinyourroom These two...tricks of yours to escape the trick of the illusion works only by an active intellectual effort and also by ignoring the rest of the "image" which implies that you cut yourself from the whole experience.
Congratulations, Deane... you broke the Matrix. Beautiful, and what CZcams was made for. Thank you for showing us some real magic in a world that seems so devoid of wonder and true curiosity.
Brilliant! And so very well conceived and presented. A big thumbs up. 👍
One thing helping this illusion is the use of tele lens. If you were up close, the small end coming around would appear as large or larger than the large end, helping re-affirm rotation. But with the long lens, everything is compressed and the small end does not vary size much when it comes around.
Can't tell if this is an old tv show reuploaded or a present day production in the style of an old tv show
Fairly sure it's the former. For one thing, in other videos they have old TVs and use outdated explanations of green screen. Also, there's this Wikipedia page: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Curiosity_Show
old people became nostalgic with these shows
@@SamuelBoshier Yeah I just watched the one with the TV, thank you ✌️
If it was a modern show I think that they would have found an alternative to a box of matches...
This is an old TV show made in Australia. Like me, the show's hosts are much older now!
This video was so good I couldn't figure out if it was actually from the 70s/80s or a modern video made to look retro until I looked up the show on Wikipedia. Lo and behold, it's the real deal, and the people behind it won some quite prestigious awards in thier time. No surprise really, this is absolute gold for young kids to learn science. PBS actually turned them down/had them redo the show for American audiences because they thought kids wouldn't like to learn science from middle aged men. How ridiculous is that?
Sadly, they were forced to end the program in Australia for much the same reason: can’t have adult men teaching children
@@Leathal Pretty damn sad when you think about it. Well, my 5 year old loves watching these old clips with me. So much for middle aged men not being able to communicate science to kids.
Awesome! I remember this segment! I suppose that will happen when you binge watch every episode.
ok this is the first illusion that broke my brain, usually i can force my mind to see beyond the illusion for what is really happening but this one is witchcraft
Very easy to watch this type of video; pleasing and surprising!
damn i used to watch this show so much in Australia. The intro says this was an early version. loved it
Quite amazing. If I really focus, I can see past the illusion a little bit, but only for about a second or two at a time - not even a full rotation.
Loved the show when I was a kid Deane!! You were my favourite!!! Also good to see a clip with the original song - also my favourite!!!!
OMG! Life was like this before the internet.

I have no clue how I ended up here. Just falling thru the CZcams worm hole, but holy hell this was a good vid.. That's one like from me..
Dang, I was hoping to see the Ames room in this clip, which I think must be next segment in the same episode. Watching Rob and Dean growing and shrinking in size while jumping back and forth between corners of that room both fascinated and messed up my childhood brain.
I could see the cardboard rotate full circles each time by NOT looking at the trapezoid as a whole but by carefully focusing only on the top corner of the longest side. So watch just the top corner and do your best to ignore the matchbox and ruler - it's easiest doing this the first time without either interfering your view.
You might have to try this a few times but I'm pretty sure most will be able to tell it's rotating now. What kind of blew my mind was that people who've never been exposed to window frames had no trouble distinguishin it. I really appreciated that tidbit at the end!!😍
If this they had put this on American TV. I would have watched this as a kid. Cool show!

this is bloody brilliant! thanks for the upload!
:D
Yes mate
After some focus, the ruler demonstration actually helped me find a good reference point, thanks to the shadow. Everything before that kept me angry and confused.
Really clever!
This is bloody fantastic! And no annoying dramatic music, cliffhangers, begging for likes or any such modernities
This show is amazing. i'm not sure if it is from using proper 3D modeling programs from a young age but I immediately identified the rotating object as a 2D shape drawn to look like a 3d shape.
No sht Sherlock 😂😂😂 From taking a poop as a toddler, I could also see it was a 2D model.
Makes you wonder how much you see for real - I mean even when you *know* what's happening,you can't tell your mind what to do!
CNN weather guy fooled a lot of people the other day. Magic is an illusion, illusions can fool and have in the past been used to control. Think propaganda.
I was thinking the same thing. The older I get the less sure I am about being right and this vid didn't help 😉
Of the entire light spectrum, only something like 1% or less is in the visible spectrum, so for every 1 thing you can see, there could well be 99 you can’t, for all we know, aliens are living among us but we just can’t see them and they move out the way! Probably not of course but we can only see things that reflect visible light, and for example a bright red tomato, that absorbs every single part of the visible spectrum EXCEPT red so it’s not that hard to imagine how many things that could be out there that absorb all visible light or let’s it pass perfectly through and all sorts! Add quantum physics and the higher dimensions and it gets insane but still theoretically possible, for all we know there could be multiple dimensions layered on us right now that don’t interact with each other but there could be a whole other world layered on ours with a different person living in the same space as you but in a different dimension so you never interact, or maybe occasionally they cross and that’s what we think is ghosts etc? Either way in the scheme of things we’re at about the equivalent of the first minute of the first ever day of school, imagine what we’ll know as common knowledge in 10,000 years or a million!?
Read "The problems of philosophy" by Bertrand Russell, it adresses this very subject in the beginning.
well, your eyes also have a blind spot (you can't see anything where the optic nerve is attached to the retina), but your brain hallucinates the missing data. Your brain also cleverly masks out your nose (unless you force yourself to see it by closing one eye)....
The matchbox is what finally broke the illusion for me, but once the ruler went in the illusion worked again. This is so cool. 💜
As a kid I'd race home from school to watch these guys. Brings back some great memories.
I liked for the mustache
That was actually an illusion too.
David Hunt hahaha
Thanks for having an "Aussie" narrator. Makes it even more interesting. Wild, mate!
I miss shows like this as a kid. Watch them after school and just get hypnotized. I was never successful in making one, but I believed it was some type of magic.
Another awesome upload - thanks again for sharing guys!
This is super interesting!
Ha!!! Classic 80s Aussie show we watched as kids.
the illusion worked even better when he manually moved it rather than the slower turntable... then that matchbox.. wow! love it!
I was able to defeat the illusion if I really focused on it, but it took multiple tries and even then it didn't always work. This is a very compelling illusion. Well done.

Here's a related rotation illusion which I've experienced but never seen mentioned. A two bladed wind turbine (quite rare, I know) rotates smoothly when viewed directly face on, but gets jerky when seen from an angle. I think this is due to the apparent elliptical shape the circular rotation acquires, making the blade tips appear to slow down as they approach the vertices of the major axis (the sharp ends at the top and bottom) since they have less apparent distance to cover over the same time, and then speed up again. A kind of Kepler's first law. Maybe something similar is going on here, complicated by the unequal ends of the window.
This is probably my favorite segment thus far.
Uncle Rico! Throw a football threw them windows.
Through
I’m going to be an illusionist/magician 🤩
If you look at the very center, where the dowel goes into the cardboard, and also keep in mind where the outward edges of the cardboard are, you can see through the illusion if you really just keep thinking about what's physically going on. It hurts my brain, but I see it. Regardless of being able to see the window rotate, the ruler illusion is still mind boggling. Brilliant, Mr. Ames. Brilliant.
Truly understanding and mastering these kinds of physics concepts is the science behind magic. And why no magician wants to give up the secrets to their illusions!
But is there a way to defeat the illusion so your brain sees it spinning?
You need to imagine the real shape very strongly as you watch it. Keep both images in your mind and fuse them. It's easier if you try focusing on the edges of the window and imagining a solid trapezoid.
Another option is to just focus on one side edge and force yourself to see its motion as continuously.
One way, would be to simply cover the open parts with your hands, and focus on the upper edge only.
What if the two sides are painted in a different color?
J M You could say the matchbox and the ruler defeat the illusion by providing references enabling us to see their true motions, revolving and rotating.
just focus on the shorter edge. np
Who is here after veritasium video?
Awesome. I have been binge watching episodes.
I did think at first that this illusion wouldn’t amaze me, but when it came to reference points, Lord, my mind was surely boggled
I look now to the stars and wonder if they to are an illusion brought about by are frame of mind and our point of view.
Maybe this was what Copernicus discovered about the planets in our solar system. The so-called retrograde movements are illusory, and the real ones are complete revolutions.
@@chrisg3030 Oh yeah, planets 'passing' each other in their resoective orbits, make done of them seem to go backwards! That must have taken a real paradign shift to understand,

So many implications occur to me after watching this.
MichaelKingsfordGray well i can only express part of it, but in short it makes me think about how something can be hidden in plain sight and about potential hologram technology.
This guy's thick accent 😂 You just know he went down to the pub after filming.
As soon as he told us about the actual shape of the cardboard i could see through it, also the shadows cast by the object and the ruler made it easier to follow the rotation, still a very cool trick though :)
This is the best optical illusion that i ever seen in years!! La mejor ilusión óptica que he podido ver desde hace años!!!
Where is your God now?
Yes. Because our entire universe happened on accident.
He's cutting out windows and sticking sellotape all over the house.
Here after veritasium
I appreciate the show more now being in my 50's
I'm usually pretty good at seeing illusions. This one took a bit. When he put the ruler in, I still couldn't beat it. Finally, at the last few seconds, I was finally able to focus on the illusion hard enough to see it. I could finally see the trapezoid turning with the ruler, but it was hard as nails trying to see it.
Who came from daily dose of internet
I did lol
Very cool but the bit at end about how it wouldn't work for some "tribe in the middle of Africa" is total bollocks. The illusion works because of an innate human understanding of perspective and parallel lines not a learned understanding that widows are rectangular 😂
This is from a time I remember... when children's TV shows were designed to stimulate curiosity. I'm not sure if today's programmes are anywhere near as interesting as this.
By concentrating hard, I finally managed to see it rotating in just one direction, not back and forth, with the matchbox, but without the matchbox, I just can’t unsee the back-and-forth.
Loved watching the curiosity show on TV as a child.
This will always be my favorite optical illusion. No matter what you do it ALWAYS fools you.
I was doing ok at seeing it for what it was, and then the matchbox was added and from there I was completely lost to the illusion. fascinating! It seems like the more done to prove it isn't an illusion the stronger the illusion gets!
I think my brain fell out about half way through that. Fantastic 😊
This is the *_best illusion_* I’ve ever seen! I had to subscribe!
LOVED The Curiosity Show!
I saw this illusion before by the Physics CZcamsr, Veritasium, titleed *_The Illusion Only Some People Can See._* He made a quite large one out of fairly thick wood, hung it from the ceiling, climbed in and put himself balanced in the center and we watched him spin around in his living room while the illusion took place around him. It was fantastic! I knew I liked this illusion, so I watched it again here. While watching his, I was able to Force myself to see it rotating instead of reversing, but it made my head spin pretty quickly and I stayed dizzy for quite a while, so I didn't try to do that again here. Interesting how natives not familiar with windows will only see it rotate! I'm getting dizzy again just thinking about it. 😵 🤣 I just found this channel and am enjoying what I've watched so far. Thank you!
