Dude, don't strech the page with massive links.

Besides, that one isn't a proper illusion. You can actually see the point were the buiding warp into rounder heads.

One of my favourites is the checkerboard illusion:

Open it up in an editing program and match the colours for yourself.

This is the same illusion only even crazier. See the bits right in the middle of the two crosses? The one on the left is blue, and the one on the right is yellow? Yeah, those are the same colour. Again, check it for yorself.

I think it has more to do with what someone percieves as "normal" the first image looks a little strange, but isn't anything remarkable. The second image (the linked to image) is extremely distorted. I don't know if it's an illusion... but then again, what exactly is an illusion anyway?

I find both your total misunderstanding of the optical illusion and your referring to Margaret Thatcher as "some old lady" rather amusing.

Check this out!

I promise it's NOT a screamer. Mods' Honour. But it is really cool! You don't have to watch it in full-screen, though.

My whole computer screen seemed to be sucking itself in.

I'm a bit dizzy from that though. I think I need to lay down...

Well, I must say that this
is a very interesting illusion. Keep on looking and you'll eventually find it.

Not funny, man, that is just a link to a flash prank, I've seen it before. Soo, if anyone gets scared easy, don't click the link. >(
