    Could you theoretically create a longer hallway at a much more mild angle making even the people going through it feel as if they are always going up. Like two stair sets on opposite sides of a "building." It would be less immediately trippy, but a couple laps through mixed with not really getting anywhere would have a fun compounding effect.

    • @Dkgow
      @Dkgow Před 2 lety +8

      You would have to make it feel like you are going up when in reality you are going down. That way you go up x height then go back down that same height so that the transition between landings always feels like you are going up when you just returned to the same landing you were just on. If you can solve that problem then you have solved the "infinite" staircase.
      So without changing halfway through so that you can see the other landing (as most staircases let you so that you "know" you are going up) you need to go up one side, and down the other while seemingly going up in some fashion. The landing would have to look like you were going up to it even though in reality you were going down to the other one.

    • @merlith4650
      @merlith4650 Před 2 lety +13

      What you guys are talking about is literally impossible, you are essentially describing a paradox.
      There is absolutely no way you can create stairs that makes you feel like you are going up while going down.
      If you angle the stairs you end up with the same problem as the model, they eventually end up sideways. Gravity is still a thing, and no matter how you choose to design the stairs or how long or large you make them, gravity will immediately reveal their flaws.
      You will never have the sensation of "going up" since that requires you to use your leg to push your body weight up against gravity, which wouldn't work when you are "falling" with gravity at an angle.
      So unless you have a way to alter gravity itself, and give each set of stairs their own gravitional pull that dynamically "circle" into each other, you will never be able to make these stairs.

    it's possible to build an infinite hallway, but it'd take up a TON of room:
    my original idea was thousands of rooms, each room points only 1/8th of an inch or less to the left each time thus hiding the fact that it's actually just a circle.
    But then I realized we can just make a hallway that wraps around earth and call it a day.

    In terms of perception, because it is a spiral but at an angle the Leaning Tower of Pisa gives a strange experience of going both down and up at the same time, particularly when you're going down. They even give a warning that it can induce motion sickness. That's the closest in real life I think I'll ever come to an Esher staircase.

      If you had a long enough staircase, you could probably slope the landing just enough that it gives you that downward drop when you walk from the "top" stair on one side to the "bottom" stair on the other, that way when you look over the stairs it always looks like you are going the direction you want, but that starting landing is actually raised. The only "problem" would be that going from one stair case to the other wouldn't seem natural.

    The illusion at 1:39 is actually a room who has one of its corners farther than the other from the camera...Here the left one is father..but it should look short right? They increased the height of it to give it an equal size look...And when the person goes to the left corner,he is actually going far away from the camera..oh,and forgot to mention,the right corner is really short and really near to the camera..
    edit: oh you already discussed it already 😂 but i am honestly didn't see the explanation later

    For it to work the flat parts have to be like ramps, it really isn't complicated

    I like how he talks to the camera like a regular ass youtuber but he dubs over it like commentary, kinda neat
