It’s not a trick, if you’re wondering. There actually is something to see.
A schooner!
It’s not a schooner… it’s a Sailboat.
A schooner is a sailboat!
You know what?! There is no easter bunny! Over there, that’s just a guy in a suit!
You know what, there is nobeaster bunny!

Dammit, I was wondering if anyone was going to make this joke before me.
Magic Eye is new again huh
Who said anything about this being new?
For those having trouble seeing it >!It’s a butterfly!<
“Its a butt…” would have gotten more people to look.
Not a butterfly but 2 butterflies. The smaller one is on top of the larger one.
I saw that too originally, you focused too deep. Try to bring it back a bit and it turns into a single large butterfly.
OMG I finally got it after all of those years… I get it what it’s supposed to look like.
It’s butterfly and design/pattern is as same as the background, you just see it in somewhat 3D form, you’re not supposed to blur your vision too much, just slight. I kept trying changing the blur until I got it.
WTF, so above method I did, I saw butterfly popped out. Then I tried doing the same but crossing my eyes, I see two cut out butterflies, like first one is bigger sunk in, then another smaller one sunk into the first butterfly.
Mind blown.
Holy shit, this is the first time it’s ever worked for me as well!
Yep you can do it both ways, but the depth is inverted! I think most magic eye ones are for “looking through”, but there are ones made for crossed eyes as well.
I’ve never been able to see them before and I saw this one.
Not only does it look 3D but it actually changes perspective as I tilt my phone around wtf.
Edit: I can’t get it to happen again :(
Keep at it. I was so happy, I went to magiceye.com and played around for while.
And yeah it was pretty cool that it change perspective as phone tilts around.
This is my wierd superpower: I can see these things at a glance. shrug I was hoping for superstrength…
The key is not to cross the eyes but to let your eyes blur.
Diverge ie focus behind the screen.
Oh my god. I finally did it. After over 30 years I finally got to see one of these. Thank you friend. I saw it so clearly for like 10 seconds.
So far I counted 4 outcomes depending on how I’m adjusting my eyes:
- Single pop out.
- Triple pop out.
- Some funky quad pop out that lasted a second.
- Single drop in.
You can get triple and quad drop ins as well.
Me too, but only by going cross-eyed, so instead of a butterfly, I see a butterfly shaped hole.
I think that’s just what this kind looks like. I never see them as anything but a hole, or maybe like layers of cut paper separated from each other.
Edit: nope, I’m wrong. There’s a difference between doing it cross-eyed and doing it… Whatever the opposite of cross-eyed is. I just did it both ways; one pops out and ones a hole.
Whatever the opposite of cross-eyed is.
Pentagrammed eyes
Depending on how you cross your eyes you can see a single butterfly, a butterfly on top of a 4-winged butterfly, or a 4-winged butterfly on top of a 6-winged butterfly.
I saw a blurry rendition of the scream
Yoooo, I unlocked the three layer butterfly!!!
Oh shit, 4 layers!!! I had to be really close for that one!
Yeah these don’t work at all for me. Maybe it’s me astigmatism or something.
It’s funny you say that. I have astigmatism, but I learned to see these on demand before I got glasses to correct it. The tricks all involve getting your eyes to focus farther away than the actual image surface. I could easily see the butterfly while wearing my glasses. Then I read your comment and tried again without my glasses and I could still see something but it was no longer a cute butterfly. Without my glasses, it was an abyssal horror with wings unfolding from other wings in a vaguely butterfly configuration.
Do you need both eyes for this? One of my eyes is almost useless and also lazy, the other one has… Something, I don’t recall what, but it’s all blurry from up close and hard to focus. Guessing astigmatism. I don’t wear glasses.
Yes, it’s entirely dependent of tricking your eyes into changing their angle as if they are looking at something farther away than the image actually is.
Two eyes are how humans have depth perception, yes.
Whoa
Hmm. I used to be able to see these so easily, but that was such a long time ago and I’ve since had Lasik. I wonder if that changes things.
Why would that have anything to do with it?
Put on your glasses.
My mom got me a book with around a hundred of these in it like 35 years ago. When I met my now wife around 18 years ago she thought it was the coolest thing in the world. She had never seen them before, so it was neat to be the one to introduce her. She spent hours staring at that book. I think it might have even helped me seem impressive when we first started dating.
Everyone keeps saying to go cross eye or to do all these tricks but I see the image at a glance and it’s much simpler and less painful with one trick. Treat it like a window.
The whole point is that you are trying to defocis yours eyes so the image overlaps on itself and makes the image inside it stand out. You can try practicing on other things like a mirror or a screen door or window before looking at these where you focus not on the screen itself or the mirror itself but past it.
If you can trick yourself into just looking into the image like it’s behind a window and just casually let your eyes defocus and look for a shape in the mess then you can fixate on it and see the image.
I think it’s definitely better than straining to try and see it.
I can only see them backwards by crossing my eyes. There’s as clear as day but they fall into the page, not pop out of it
I was expecting a schooner.
Why is there a Rorschach test as the image? And why does it look like my parents having sex?
I finally did it!!! I’ve tried these things as a kid and occasionally when they pop up on social media over the years. Never been able to do them. Sometimes I got close, but it left a weird shaped hole my brain couldn’t figure out. But I just now did this one.
I wished I still had that framed one I got given as a pressent as a kid. Never knew what it looked like.
I literally can make my eyes just unfocus from all reality and then it appears instantly.
My eyes have different prescriptions so these never work for me :(
Wut? Put on your glasses then it doesn’t matter what your prescriptions are.
I thought an eye doctor told me that’s why these don’t work for me, I could be remembering wrong. Also one of the eyes has an astigmatism so could be the wombo combo
Hopefully you’re remembering wrong, because otherwise your doctor is retarded.
Astigmatism doesn’t matter when it’s corrected by prescription glasses. So put them on.
