Accomplish an Optical Illusion With Your Hands

Like optical illusions? Need a challenge? Try this!

Steps

  1. Put your hands together, on the side on where you can see your nails. It must not be palm to palm! Make sure that your right hand is on top of your left hand. Your thumbs MUST be straight out. This means that your index fingers and your thumbs should form a 90 degree angle.
  2. Keeping your thumbs straight out, move your right hand to the right side until your thumb touches your other thumb. Move straight, and not swirly. This makes it unreal, which will ruin the illusion.
  3. Keeping your thumbs touched, move your right hand down until your tops of your fingers face the ground. This will take some practice, and if it looks unusual in a good way, you've mastered the step.
  4. Your nails of your thumbs should now be on opposite sides of each other. Remember that 90 degree angle? (Look at your left hand.) Well, you should see the round part in the middle of your angle. Move your RIGHT thumb left until you hit the round part that connects your angle, sliding your right thumb on your left thumb the whole entire time. Again, make sure it goes straight.
  5. Last, but not least, the final step. Look at the index finger on your LEFT hand. Slide your RIGHT thumb up until you reach the top of the index finger. Once again, keep it straight, sliding on the index finger. You should have made a hole in which you could see through.
