Very cool, optical illusions
No Comments
Why do our trains not look as totally awesome as these from Asia? I know that Asian cultures love color and design. Wow, check out these incredible and fascinating designs for the subway train cars in Korea. They even have musicians dress up as Santa and play music around the holidays. How cool is that? I love optical illusions and the neon on the train cars is great.

here are a few more optical illusion videos that I really like. This first one had me seeing that crazy pattern on every wall for like a minute afterwards, and the galloping horse in the second video is great. I gotta get that book.

Have you ever wondered what you would weight on other planets like Mars? Well, I hear your weight depends on the size of the planet you are on or more importantly, the gravity of the planet. Larger planets have stronger gravity and make you weigh more and smaller planets with weaker gravity can make you very light.
Your weight is calculated as how much body mass you have and how much gravity is pulling down on you on the planet you are on.
