I don’t know how to comment when I see this. I want to talk about how this works, but most people know how this works. So I don’t know why its a thing. Its funny though.
This particular version is more about the characters depicted (Denji and Power from Chainsaw Man), who are famous for being endearingly stupid.
The more earnest versions you tend to see on TikTok are mostly posted by, or at least targeted at, actual kids who don’t yet understand how vision works. Nobody on Lemmy is under the age of 30.

You must be wise beyond your years. 😂
19 gang
I’m 2E! Do I really need to wait 2 years to use it?
Man if you’re hexadecimal years old then go right ahead, use it now.
He’s been okay to use it for 16 years.
16 is wrong, as that would be 10. 2E = 46

Although I might feel 30 sometimes, I’ll have you know I’m a ripe 28 & ¾
I’m also 28 and three quarters. Weird.
Wow, we already have enough for an average lemmy community.

There was some stupid trend of tiktok of people being confused by it
I see this as many people are curious of why this happens which leads to the eagerness to learn about optics, and I wouldn’t call that stupid.
This is exactly the type of experiment that engages students and ingrains the phenomenon to their memory.
It wasn’t an experiment. The creators just feign stupidity to generate engagement. I wouldn’t mind if they used it to teach how optics or light work .
Beware of adding a double slit to the paper and aiming the laser between the slits, weird things might happen.
People can be so stupid
I thought this whole “object behind paper against a mirror” thing was just a meme at first because the result is very intuitive and not at all shocking… But then I guess people genuinely didn’t get it? People really can be so stupid.
It isn’t just a meme ?
Having met people, I have to agree.
I take this as permission rather than a statement of fact.
Magic. Don’t let mage apologists gaslight you.
I like the Action Lab guy going through the explanation for this https://youtu.be/ezUmSO_OAxY

Thank your for posting this instead of just being condescending about it being stupid question like most of the people on this thread
Why do they have sharpened teeth? That’s a little creepy
They’re from an anime, Chainsaw Man. Haven’t watched idk why they have sharp teeth, but my best guess is that it’s an anime where they use their OP chainsaw teeth to make a killing in the lumber industry, that’s definitely what it’s about.
I watched the anime, your guess is right.
They have sharp teeth to show they are demons, I thought. The main dude doesn’t have sharp.teeth until he is made into a demon when his little chainsaw dog replaced his heart.
Others have pointed out there is inconsistencies with this, though. I just figured they were oversights in production and the sharp teeth are still intended to represent when the character is demonic.
Its an optional illusion. Nothing exists and we are but the stuff of dreams.
If the illusion is optional, how do I toggle it off?
It’s optional for the people on the other side of the mirror only
Just close your eyes. Illusions don’t work if you can’t see them
Funny comic,
but wow that compression looks awful.Here’s the source: https://twitter.com/giganticbuddha/status/1652009277429563393?s=20
And here’s the follow up comic: https://twitter.com/giganticbuddha/status/1654184641555832834
That 100kb limit really gets to some of these memes
I love Power.
She’s the best. Chainsaw Man is great for many reasons, but the powerful women with agency is one of the best. Especially for a shonen manga.

I am angleless…
Lights a funny thing, innit?
That’s a cool trick. I didn’t know about it, but it also didn’t surprise me. I did test it to confirm first, though.
