We're building one right now (that's what we do in Government..), I'll let y'all know if it looks as good as it does in the video they have. 

rabbit

Holy shit that's awesome...

iago

We couldn't get it working.  I suspect he didn't put it together right, but he insists that he did.  Oh well :)

I made one of these a couple months ago.  It was going to be part of my science fair project but it didn't work. :/

That link was posted on the vL forums a long while back.. Its a great illusion.
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Now that I'm reminded of this thread, I actually got it working right.  Stupid Mitch folded it backwards.  I keep it on my desk at work now :)

wires

What do you mean backward?  Might have been samething that I did. :o  Does it work just like the video?

Towelie

Thats Fucking AWESOME,  I;ll have to print one out later

Sidoh

My thoughts exactly. Neat find, iago!

iago

Well, the head is supposed to be a concave.  It goes inwards.  He had it folded convex, so it stuck out and was pretty normal.

It's not AS good as the video, and the secret is that you have to close one eye and forget how it really looks.

wires

Yeah, I knew about the one eye thing and you have to be about a foot away too, but it still never worked for me. :/

Sidoh

Regardless, it's still pretty impressive that someone was able to come up with something like this.

Blaze

Could you make a video of your dragon iago?  and add that english voice, its a classic!
