The Impossible Waterfall Illusion

M.C Escher made a mind blowing sketch of an impossible waterfall illusion and we tried making it in real life to see if it's possible. The trick is all in how you line up the camera.

Huge thanks to Kris Johnson for constructing this impossible water illusion for us!

0:37 he said it himself the magic is in the perspective alignment. The rest is obviously editing.

That's awesome. So cool. I wish I could build one of these myself. That would be so neat to have in your house as decoration or something. Really cool, thanks for sharing this. I mean, you didn't really explain how it works but okay, still pretty cool.

Wait wait wait....shouldn’t the water be on the floor?

I met him at work and I totally fangirled, and I’m pretty sure I freaked him out 😅

Your cgi needs work.

The lighting seemed too sharp in comparison with the aqua duct.

Unless I am wrong and the rubber duck is made of fluorescent radioactive awesomeness
