Imagine you're looking at a picture that makes straight lines look bent, even though they are perfectly straight. That's like perceptual illusion. Sometimes, our brain tricks us into thinking things aren't what they really are. Just like the picture makes you see something different from what it actually is, everything we know might just be a trick played on our senses.
Examples
- A drawing makes a straight line look bent, even though it’s not.
- You think a red apple is bigger than a green one, but they are the same size.
- You feel like you’re on a moving walkway at an airport, but you’re actually standing still.
