This illusion is one of the more common. It’s so common that it’s shown to nearly every intro to psych course that’s ever been taught. It is so so common, in fact, that it is more mind-blowing not to be familiar with it. Anyways, what’s this illusion about? The tables are actually the same size. Sorry to blow your mind.
This illusion is particularly striking, as most of us definitely do not perceive the tables to be the same size. The one on the right, for instance, looks much thicker in width t
han the one on the left. The left one, in contrast, looks much thinner and more elongated. But, this is only a trick of the eye. If you don’t believe it, take out that ruler and find out for yourself.
