Actually both these lines are of the same size and we perceive it differently because the parallel converging squares in the background are decreasing in size making one of the lines look longer than the other.This is the ponzo illusion and it uses geometry to distort our sense of depth. Now, have you ever felt your energy increase drastically when in open fields c ...
