Thank you to my friend Kath for creating the T-rex design!

I've included a link for you to print out your own. The trick looks best through a camera. If you close one eye and move back and forth it works pretty good too.

I’ve provided links to the images for you to print out and try at home. Do not use these images for TV or any other commercial use without permission

This is based on the famous dragon illusion which was inspired by Jerry Andrus. I've always wanted to try this illusion with several of these at once. I wanted to use 20 or 30 but after I tried a test with only 12, I realized 20 or 30 was going to be too many. So another thing I've always wanted to try was to have a large version. The original file was about 9 feet X 9 feet. I had to split the image into 4 files so the printer as my local print shop could print it. I traced all of the pieces on cardboard which I used to build a support structure for the prints. I used small pieces of cardboard and hot glue to make the structure really solid. One problem that I had was that the paper for the large dragon was really shiny. So if you look closely you can see the reflection of the eyes on the "top" and side panels. I bought some matte spray to try and minimize the reflections. It worked a little. Over all I was happy with the results.

I love how the 3d illusion just springs into place when the right camera angle is there.

The 360 degree view at the end really helps to explain the illusion!

I had a toy like this as  child, it still blew my mind even though I knew exactly what I was looking at... Why can't some people just appreciate the craftsmanship and the message that you can not trust everything you see.

If you concentrate, you can actually stop using the creative part of your brain, and see it for exactly what it is.

I like how it begins with one T-Rex and it makes you think "Oh wow that's pretty cool" and as if someone heard you they go "You think one is cool? HOW ABOUT EIGHT."
