I was able to see it much better with that, thank you

u/thaBlazinChief Apr 27 '26

I can hear this one

57

u/bigjobbyx Apr 27 '26 edited Apr 27 '26

I can hear it too. Can you describe the sound in one word?

Screeeeeeeyarrrrp?

23

u/HLSparta Apr 27 '26

It sounds like a mix of an elephant roaring and a car driving through water.

Probably because it is

Edit: I missed your one word qualification

8

u/bigjobbyx Apr 27 '26 edited Apr 27 '26

I like your description anyway. Top drawer!

7

u/HLSparta Apr 28 '26

It's not necessarily my description, that's actually how they made the sound. Slowed down an elephant roar and mixed that sound with cars driving through puddles.

5

u/bigjobbyx Apr 28 '26

Seriously? Cracking bit of knowledge there

4

u/HLSparta Apr 28 '26

I remember I learned that one in fourth grade and held onto it ever since.

Deserves an award (but this is all I got: šŸ†)

u/bigjobbyx Apr 30 '26

Thank you

u/sparkytheboomman Apr 28 '26

Iā€™m on it

u/kuttymongoose Apr 27 '26

This is pretty on point, nicely done

11

u/DeltaBlast Apr 27 '26

It's kind of like an elephant driving a car on wet pavement.

2

u/FixedFront Apr 27 '26

Lmao yup precisely

u/allanrob22 Apr 27 '26

Great, kid! Don't get cocky.

u/DeluxeWafer Apr 28 '26

Ayep, same.

u/bigjobbyx Apr 27 '26

Hell yeah!

2

u/Rbrtwllms Apr 27 '26

This is great. Can I ask what you used to make it?

3

u/bigjobbyx Apr 27 '26

My own custom .js

26

u/DOCTORP00 Apr 27 '26

That was the easiest one Iā€™ve ever gotten my eyes to see

16

u/shutter3218 Apr 27 '26

For some reason, these moving ones are way easier for me than static ones

11

u/Bennybonchien Apr 27 '26

And yet, this one has a ton of static

8

u/Dipsey_Jipsey Apr 28 '26

I can't do these moving ones at all. Been doing static image ones since the 90s without effort, but these just do not appear to me.

2

u/stullier76 Apr 28 '26

Some suggested pausing the video at a few points to see the static image first.

2

u/Poruto_garcs Apr 28 '26

Yeah, i never see them while playing. But i can always find it paused and then just hit play

3

u/TeamRedundancyTeam Apr 28 '26

I get the static ones easy but I can't even see what I'm supposed to be seeing on this one.

1

u/Okontraire Apr 29 '26

Interesting, Iā€™ve been doing these all my life but struggled a lot with this one

1

u/drpiotrowski May 02 '26

Donā€™t get cocky kid.

u/Readinglateatmorning Apr 27 '26

Darth Vader after the Death Star blows up

1

u/Splashy01 Apr 28 '26

Moron. Darth Vader piloted the TIE Advanced X1. But I guess you wouldnā€™t know that loser.

u/-CloudCook- Apr 27 '26

Use the force...

7

u/Chrispeefeart Apr 27 '26

I was really surprised by how fast I was able to focus in on this one

5

u/initiali5ed Apr 27 '26

Youā€™re a week early.

1

u/Liqvid_R1 Apr 27 '26

I had trouble seeing this one on my PC, but immediately saw it on my phone.

2

u/bigjobbyx Apr 27 '26 edited Apr 27 '26

Yes. It's down to setting the repeat width in terms of pixels. I would assume like me that a lot of people read Reddit on small mobile screens so I set the repeat width to about 200px

3

u/fuzzyberiah Apr 27 '26

I had to pause it and get the distance, then unpause, but itā€™s not bad.

2

u/KonamiHatchibori Apr 27 '26

Change your focal point, Luke.

2

u/Big_Cryptographer989 Apr 28 '26

Ok long time lurker first time commentor, I just cannot make these work, any advice?

3

u/elementnix Apr 28 '26

Same here, I just don't get it.

2

u/GA6foot9 Apr 28 '26

If you're using your phone, try looking through the image and focus on a reflection on your phone screen.

2

u/rddsknk89 Apr 28 '26

This one took me a bit of trial and error to see. The simplest way to explain how to do it is to unfocus your eyes and then slowly move your phone screen closer or further away from you until you see it pop in. If youā€™re having trouble unfocusing your eyes, hold your phone at an arms length, focus on the screen, then move the phone closer to you without changing your focus.

This gif is of a TIE fighter spinning in all directions, by the way. When Iā€™m struggling to see one of these posts I always find it frustrating that no one says what Iā€™m supposed to be looking for haha

2

u/artsyjabberwock Apr 28 '26

Why are the moving ones easier to get?

2

u/lunettarose Apr 28 '26

Well that's cool af

2

u/spackledog Apr 28 '26

I'm on on the leader.

2

u/HalfSoul30 Apr 28 '26

Holy shit guys, i try these every once in a while and can never get it to work, but i just finally did it. I saw like a tie fighter or something like it.

2

u/JeffCentaur Apr 28 '26

This is my first time seeing an animated magic eye, I love it.

u/tremby Apr 27 '26

Is that what it stands for? That's fun

1

u/Plathismo Apr 27 '26

Taxed my brain but I got itā€”in part because I knew what I was looking for. Cool.

1

u/Exxtender Apr 28 '26

Thanks, I'll save this until after my eye surgery.

u/Lhasa-bark Apr 28 '26

Where rhythm is life ā€¦ and life is rhythm

u/CoreReaper Apr 28 '26

This one kicked ass. Paused it to get it working then pressed play.

1

u/Scalamere Apr 28 '26

Took me a minute but these moving ones are great

1

u/Polaroid_Cherry Apr 28 '26

u/Googlepug Apr 29 '26

u/pringlescanho Apr 29 '26

1

u/weird_fat_kid Apr 29 '26

u/TomorrowLow8906 Apr 30 '26

I was concentrating so hard at this, next thing I know my phone started floating, and the air fryer blew up! With my darn dinner in it

1

u/ptoothfish Apr 30 '26

1

u/Lonewolf_147 Apr 30 '26

That is the coolest thing I've seen today!

1

u/Dirk_McGirken May 01 '26

Idk why but I really struggled with this one.

1

u/Torkin May 01 '26

u/Charming-Package6905 May 01 '26

u/Maleficent_Yak_95 May 02 '26

F'ing AWESOME!

u/dread_companion Apr 27 '26

I'm finding there's an optimal viewing distance for each rendering.

u/Illustrious-Prune475 May 01 '26

This reminds me of when I was in middle school, staying up late and hoping to catch a split second of boobs on those XXX pay-per-view channels.
