Optical Illusion Dance

When these seven young women shuffled onto the stage, we had no idea what to expect. Dressed in an odd half-white and half-black outfit, each of these women’s outfits seems meant to confuse the eye.

This optical illusion dance runs through the gambit of all sorts of popular songs. From MC Hammer’s “Can’t touch this” to LMFAO’s “Party Rock Anthem,” these young ladies really know how to entertain a crowd.

While it may appear simple at first, the actual amount of time and effort that went into this little dance shouldn’t be taken lightly. Every single step and movement they take is so in-synch that the amount of work they put into this piece really comes through!

It’s really weird how the simple act of changing the colors of your clothes can really have a profound effect on how you actually view a human body. Even after being fully aware that there’s an illusion going on here; our eyes want to force our brains to think we’re seeing an all white suit or an all black suit.

Just like the women who formed a “thousand-armed dancer,” the human body is capable of some pretty amazing things when you put your mind to it!
