      i have seen this a while ago and at first glance i saw the reddish and greenish colors, right at the start of the video before even watching at the colors
      And that is what's interesting with this effect, it's not cause by your retina but apparently by your brain

    I can still see red and green in the initial image.
    It’s been SIX YEARS.
    The first time I saw this, I was young enough to get nightmares about having permanently ruined my vision.

      Green is the color in the middle of the visible spectrum of light for us humans, whereas red wavelengths are just about long enough to not be seen. Your eyes are able to pick out green tints more easily because it is completely within the spectrum of light that we can see.

    I submitted myself to this optical illusion more than a year ago (because otherwise I wouldn't have convinced myself that it was real) and, no joke, the effect has still not worn off completely. I mean, it's very very faint now, but it's definitely still there.

    If you re-watch the entire video turned at 90 degrees it will cancel out the effect and you'll see the black/white stripes normally again. Also, turning the video 45 degrees removed the effect temporarily.

    I did it twice, the first time I could kind of see what they were talking about, the second time it was a bit more intense, this won't switch colors in your head.. it'll just make you see these colors when you see similar patterns. No point to being worried about the long lasting effects as it won't effect your life much.

    I'm only getting the vertical lines to have a slight pink tint, the horizontal lines are barely affected, the biggest effect for me is when the pictures changes, especially from green to red, then I get like matrix looking kind of code or like a green monster logo for a few seconds. Why is this? I've looked at the pictures twice (2x3 minutes) within a minute of each other.

    • @reijerboodt8715

      The sensory cells in your eyes are grouped per color, red blue and green. When you stare at one color for a while, the cells which are sensitive to that color get temporarily burned out. When the picture changes what happens is that they start to come back to function. Because all the colors are present in the white parts but none of the previous color is present in the colored parts they only get stimulated by the white parts, while the cells sensitive to the new color get stimulated by the colored parts more. Combine this with the fact that our eyes are constantly darting around in where were looking, and you get this trippy effect when the picture changes.
