Most of the things which is considered impossible in this world is directly related to our minds. (ghosts and supernatural events as well)

Take magicians for example. The old trick of making things vanish is simply an illusion. An illusion that focuses on getting your attention of a separate event, blinding your mind to the obvious.

These are mere illusions, illusions that are flawed, not fool-proof, and cannot be compared with the Grand Illusions.

Take David Blaine, the world’s famous street magician. One of his most memorable acts was him levitating 3 feet off the ground, causing the ladies to shout and yell uncontrollably.

In truth, it was simply a cleverly edited video. The act of the ladies yelling was real, but he did not go as high as 3 feet. He was merely levitating a few inches in the real event, but his act was greatly enhanced using wires in the video.

The levitation by a few inches is simply a manipulation of angles and eyesight, to make the impossible seem possible. This is no Grand Illusion.

What do I mean with Grand Illusions ?

Take this picture for example.

The squares marked by A and B are the same shade of grey. Unbelievable, isn’t it.

But edit the picture and take the two squares and compare, it shows that it truly is the same shade of grey !

 

Just when I thought my world couldn’t get any weirder.
