Head Trick

I followed a link on a Jerry Andrus-affiliated optical illusions website and saw this video of an illusion that amazed me - very nicely done. Hope you will agree.

Oh my goodness, they were speaking in tongues! That's a miracle in and of itself!

Oh... never mind.

It was fun to watch. I expected to see the illusion that Mac King does in his act, but this was better.
