Many of these examples illustrate the implementation of municipal fire / safety codes, especially those with wide landings. The requirement is usually to have a handrail available every 60 inches, or 30 inches away side to side. All those railings "wasting" portions of the steps were added after these codes were adopted
The “Paradoxal” stairs are actually smart if you think about it. I think they’re designed in a way that if someone trips going down they don’t roll all the way down and suffer a sever injury. The going up slope while descending the stairs will break your fall.
If they were worried about that, they would have done better to add a railing. Edit: On the last one, I mean. The Russian one would have been better served with a proper landing.
@@imalrockme If you can't figure that one out I don't think you're an expert on logic. See how there's a worn down path in the grass? Those stairs are unused and unusable. The steep grade caused the top stair sections to slide downward and then they buckled at the point where they met the much more firmly anchored bottom section.

The stairs at 4:40 are just glorious. The fact that the doors open towards the staircase, inevitably trapping any wheelchair occupant that would get this far...
My middle sister wanted a checkerboard floor in two rooms separated by an 8 inch drop in a house that my legally blind older sister was going to live in. I reminded her that our sister wouldn't be able to see the step from above and could easily take a header into the lower room. Got the response of "oh, I didn't think of that." 🤦♀️
Just something to think about. A lot of the wide stairs with railings cutting off half of them are likely old stairs that had to be brought up to code at one point. Unfortunately that probably means two handrails within reach. For instance I helped my uncle remodel a home where we had to put a handrail in front of a handrail. The home was considered historically significant so we couldn't alter that stairs but new codes required a banister that was 18 inches taller and smaller gaps between each banisters. We did our best but damn did it not look great
6:17 that stairway doesn’t lead to nowhere. It’s the ghost lounge clearly. You can’t see the door because ghosts just go through walls, and thus don’t need it. But they do need the stairs because they can’t go through the floor.
01:30 this is honestly a very elegant solution for a constricted space. You have to kind of treat it like a ladder and make sure you don't slip, but it shouldn't be an issue when you watch your step.
Irrational stairs are a bit terrifying for some reason. And especially just photos about them, since you don't see the context. They have that vibe of weird dream that doesn't make sense no matter how much you try and you start to panic a bit.
5:01 reminds me of the monorail episode on the Simpsons. In the end we can hear Marge say: "And that was the only stupidity the ppl of Springfield ever commited; except the popsicle skyskraper, and the fifty foot magnifying glass, and the ESCALATOR TO NOWHERE!" *several people falling off the end of said escalator*
Stairs that lead to walls is clearly meant to block access to something, but it was cheaper to not remove the stairs, and in case they want to open it again. We didn't see the start to the escalator, but it was probably blocked off.
6:16 Legend has it that if you say "You forgot to give us homework" backwards at the top of these steps, a doorway opens to a room containing the names and school related secrets of every student.
Ah,yeah! I've had similar dreams like this; especially the one with the toilet on the stairs. I wanted to go so badly but couldn't; and then I woke up. I got up and went to the bathroom for real 😳. I was really so relieved 😌.
Yup. Sometimes I dream about going to school again and the staircases are like that or I even have to jump across a missing part of the staircase. It's terrifying :'D
My dreams involving stairs always end badly. Sometimes it's too many or too confusing, cut off, made of concrete then at the next part changed into ropes.
I imagine, a lot of major architectural mistakes not caught before construction began or renovation problems that couldn't be fixed and someone said, "F*ck it, we're just gonna do this..."
The stairs in front of my apartment are a nightmare! I don’t know how they passed the building inspection! There are building codes for a reason! The first step is 2.5” taller than they’re supposed be! While 2.5” doesn’t seem like a big deal... You should see how many people misjudge that first step and trip going up the stairs! So far nobody’s tripped going down but at least 70% of people fall/trip going up!
You could talk to your apartment staff and get maintenance to paint bright yellow lines on the ends and fronts of the steps. It may not solve the tripping problem entirely, but it will help! Also, is there good lighting (i.e. a street light) that shines on the stairs at night? If not, you can take that up with the city you're in. That's dangerous. I'm visually impaired and have no depth perception. When I was in college, the university constructed new buildings with light grey concrete stairs that were impossible for me and others to judge. We had a lot of injuries and one of my friends (who has normal vision) broke her ankle. I talked it over with several officials at the university and we had lines added to the ends of the stairs. It helped tremendously! Best of luck to you!

Fun fact! The reason a lot of stairs are cut off with rails and stuff halfway is bc hostile architecture it’s built that way to keep homeless people from having a place to sleep.
my school had a stair that leads to a window and that window connects to another part of a school to which I think is cool and fun, just imagining it's like a secret path but it has been renovated 😅
I suspect a lot of these are the result of renovations, including all the weird railings and stairways to nowhere. Can't blame renovations for the awful carpet and tile designs, though.
I actually like 1:40 tho. Gives me that Hogwarts staircases feel. Also looks like a great place to sit down and hangout or read a book in the corner. Also I just remembered this recurring dream I had years ago where there was this building, kinda creepy, with small rooms. There are four assymetrical sections to the building. Some rooms connect to a second room, some rooms connect to a small hallway, some rooms are just there, but they are all connected by stairs. The stairs go up and down and they're interconnected with all the four sections of the building. There's two or more staircases connecting at different intervals. You might need to go up one flight and change direction to get to the bottom of another section, or down one flight and change stairs to get to the top of another section. Unless you know your way around the building, you could potentially be trapped there forever. The top of the building is a terrace and all the four sections have a staircase leading there. This was once my favourite dream lmao I loved figuring out the maze and the feeling of being trapped in there (for whatever reason 💀. I also love the feeling of falling in your dream and waking up.)
3:25 ! My high school was built centuries ago, with different buildings joined together by funny corridors and stairs, as the floors weren't at the same level between the buildings. Just in front of the director's office were 3 steps and a short corridor to his door. We used to climb them slowly, fearing the punishment for our faults. But leaving the office was such a relief that we'd jump the 3 steps down to rush out of there.... Just to hit the ceiling corner with our head, and fall on the steps on our back!!! Who needs a punishment with such steps?!? All the new students knew this director steps spell during years... Until a new director arrived. A tall man.... And suddenly, a thick foam protection appeared on the ceiling !!! 😅
Your friend leans to the stairs, it turns out there is a hidden button at the stairs, you and your friend enter the secret room. The door is closed. To be continue..
@@ilikeyoursuitandtie1073 But it turns out that you and your friend can't come back anymore, and in the secret room there is a hallway that might lead them out of the room. To be continued
I think that at the stairs at 6:15, the stairs actually leads somewhere, you just had to complete the level you're on before they allow you to continue...
Alien :what was this video about again ? Humans: a story of how we use extra cement and paint to reduce over population. Some die of pain, some die of bleeding and some of laughter. Simple logic.😊

Either to able to sit and not be stepped on, because they want to have fun and confuse people or as a prop for fan videos for example Harry Potter. Or as a prop for their own original content.
7:13 That is actually for wheelchair parking. Bring the kid up the play area via elevator and then push it down the padded ramp, where it gets back into the wheelchair after it recovers. The kids will have a blast.
@@jonesnori There are various reasons for needing a wheelchair. Not all are required to be unable to use their lower limbs. Even those without control of their lower limbs benefit in play without their chair. It strengthens their upper body. Like physiotherapy but funner and it creates an area where they can play like “normal” kids.
@@YeahNo True. There was (maybe still is) a camp on Martha's Vineyard that catered to kids with cerebral palsy, and I know they took them into the ocean periodically. Many had little control over their limbs, so there would be an able-bodied adult partnered with each kid to help, and keep them safe in the water. People do use wheelchairs for all sorts of reasons. Thanks for helping me think this through.
One day, with out my glasses on, I started walking after coming down the stairs, as I thought I was done with the stairs. Little did I realize there were like 4 more stairs to step down. Of course I went flying and crashed into the door post. Needless to say I never did that again.
Wow. I'm visually impaired. I have an inoperable cyst on my left optic nerve that causes my eyes to work opposite of one another, so I have no depth perception, tunnel vision, (where I can't see below my nose) and double vision. I would have to flat out close my eyes and walk down these steps!
@@Sophie-gn8jw that is so sweet of you! Thank you!!! I had cancer, in the form of a germ cell tumor that started growing in the center of my brain (around the time I was born) and grew down into my spinal cord, blocking off the passageway for cerebral spinal fluid to leave my brain, roughly six months after I turned 13 years old. The cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) built up inside my brain and caused it to swell. Since the skull bone is outside the brain, there isn't much room for the brain to swell. The pressure from the swelling caused my pupils (black dot at center of eyes) to dilate (expand) to the point where you could no longer see the iris (color) of my eyes. The pressure also caused vomiting and a terrible pain inside my head. About four months after the CSF build up in my brain began (hydrocephalus) my brain developed a cyst on my left optic nerve and as the hydrocephalus grew more intense, a bundle of nerves wrapped around the cyst like vines. (The cyst is somewhat like a fluid filled blister). The development of the cyst was another way my brain was trying to relieve the pressure from the swelling. Eight months after I started developing hydrocephalus (and the visual impairment from hydrocephalus) I had a CT scan done and that's when they found the tumor. I had an MRI, with contrast, the next morning, and the contrast caused the tumor to light up on the MRI scans, which meant the tumor was cancer. I had a 6 hour surgery the next day, where complications arose, and the likelihood that I would ever wake again were reduced to .1%. Several days later when I did wake, I was paralyzed from my cheekbones down to my toes. I had to relearn everything, at 14, from how to talk to how to sit up on my own, stand, balance, walk, wash my hair, brush my teeth, tie my shoes, say my alphabet, everything. I had 3 more surgeries, to relieve the hydrocephalus, and ended up needing a ventriculoperitoneal shunt, which they put on the right side of my brain. This shunt works very similar to an IV bag and line: it has a tube in the center of my brain that collects CSF and pushes it into a pouch, outside my brain. As the pouch gets full, it pushes the fluid down another long tube that runs down and drains in my stomach. I had 6 and a half weeks of radiation treatments after that. A little over a year after I went into remission was when they found the cyst on my optic nerve and I was diagnosed as visually impaired. However, being visually impaired was an excellent trade for being able to live, so I can't complain!!! I feel extremely blessed to be alive! Thank you so much again! ❤
@@pirategirl1588 oh my goodness! Thank you for sharing your story, you are so incredibly strong, I'm so sorry to hear that you had to go through all that ♥️ I'm glad you beat the odds that were stacked against you, very inspirational, I'm sure you see life in a different way after losing so much when you were younger and working hard and fighting to get it all back, I'm so happy that you're doing so much better now 💞 Much love
A school I went to had shiny white tile floors white walls that were the same color with really bright lights so that it all blended together the stairs were invisible. It also had blind corners that were everywhere and every doorway had a one inch metal strip. It was very difficult to not get hurt in the supposedly disabled people friendly new building.

Bravo to the builders, engineers ...... Wooow. Just imagined me walking all over those are falling down every single time. Tragedy ready to happen. Thank you for sharing.
It says Hit yourself at 3rd floor. You will thank us 3 months from now. Meaning go to the gym at 3rd floor. You'll thank the gym for the workout support after three months. 'Hit yourself' basically means 'Knock yourself out', 'use this stuff', or somethings like that
I understand that it's odd to see the wheelchair design on stairs, but that side of the stairs has grips and the handrail so it's for disabled people who can walk but need the handrail/bump caps on the end of the stairs for whatever reason. Not every disabled person needs a wheelchair :)
i stayed at a motel/hotel (i guess it was originally a motel they put an enclosing roof over) where the stairs had a similar non-uniformly striped carpet on the entire horizontal/vertical surface so it was hard to see the edges. i noticed when i my eyesight was going bad, it becomes extremely hard to pick out edges and assign depth to them, so now i really feel the dangers of old people. even sidewalks when the sun is overhead is a little scary because lack of telltale shadows at changes of elevation. it's funny how our brains seem to just build a 3d model of our surroundings in our minds with much conscious effort. a great system! when it works :)

The “Paradoxal” stairs are actually smart if you think about it. I think they’re designed in a way that if someone trips going down they don’t roll all the way down and suffer a sever injury. The going up slope while descending the stairs will break your fall.
Yeah, the same logic aplies to the last one 07:32

stair way to the window
I suspect a lot of these are the result of renovations, including all the weird railings and stairways to nowhere. Can't blame renovations for the awful carpet and tile designs, though.
“At third floor, hit yourself. You will thank us three months from now....”
Ok this is even worse than the messed up version
*imagine someone did this*
@The cyclops Art I honestly don't know
Reminds me of Stargate: Atlantis. On the gate room stairs they have an amazing greeting but when it was installed to the set it was messed up.
Why would I hit myself 😂😭
xD
7:21 you just need to find the lever accidentally that leads to a secret room
*heavy stuff falls down*
"Wrong lever , Kronk!!"
;)
Straight to paradise 😂💓😯
That stair seems to be out of place. If you tried to walk down the stair the trip on the last step. You might be able to no-clip into backrooms
2:00 actually thought this was a wooden floor lol! XD
"3 months from now, at the third floor, hit yourself. You will thank us."
Holy crap what is this-
4:53 So...the people made this was just like
"Well y'know what, its been done. It is what it is, and what it is is that im not fixing it anymore"
I trip on normal stairs. These would be my death
I don’t fall down the stairs unless I’m wearing heels, but I ALWAYS fall *up* the stairs. I’m special..
@@すしむし i trip bothways. I'm klutzy whatever I walk on because the way I move looks like I'm dragging my feet😂
@@pinkishhaven5158 😂😂😂
Mari kinnie?😳
I don't need to be drunk to fall down those stairs
6:31
the stairs be like: Hey dont be lazy, just walk!
What did you think of the Russian escalator to a wall?
Don't be lazy go through the wall
Chill. It's just a staircase made for the protagonist to give a wise speech
2:10 wow, invisible stairs. That left picture just looks like a ramp.
Yes, this is the kind of content I need to watch at 3 AM
6:16 I heard if you run at it hard enough, you’ll end up on platform nine & three quarters.
Or maybe in a hospital with a severe head concussion. You know, if it turns out that you're not a wizard. But maybe you are, who knows?
Never know until you try. Totally worth it if you are a wizard though.
Or maybe you will noclip into the backrooms lol
@@bayhanftbl19 😅 I’d much prefer Hogwarts.
Them jeans stairs are horrible,I wouldn't like try and walk down them with high heels on they could get stuck in pocket lol.
👍😂
I actually like 1:40 tho. Gives me that Hogwarts staircases feel. Also looks like a great place to sit down and hangout or read a book in the corner.
Also I just remembered this recurring dream I had years ago where there was this building, kinda creepy, with small rooms.
There are four assymetrical sections to the building. Some rooms connect to a second room, some rooms connect to a small hallway, some rooms are just there, but they are all connected by stairs. The stairs go up and down and they're interconnected with all the four sections of the building. There's two or more staircases connecting at different intervals. You might need to go up one flight and change direction to get to the bottom of another section, or down one flight and change stairs to get to the top of another section. Unless you know your way around the building, you could potentially be trapped there forever. The top of the building is a terrace and all the four sections have a staircase leading there.
This was once my favourite dream lmao I loved figuring out the maze and the feeling of being trapped in there (for whatever reason 💀. I also love the feeling of falling in your dream and waking up.)
might build this thing in roblox studio or blender, pretty cool
This whole vid had me going “thanks, i hate it”
“You know how zebras camouflage themselves against each other? What if we did that with stairs?”
“Genius!”
3:25 ! My high school was built centuries ago, with different buildings joined together by funny corridors and stairs, as the floors weren't at the same level between the buildings.
Just in front of the director's office were 3 steps and a short corridor to his door. We used to climb them slowly, fearing the punishment for our faults. But leaving the office was such a relief that we'd jump the 3 steps down to rush out of there.... Just to hit the ceiling corner with our head, and fall on the steps on our back!!! Who needs a punishment with such steps?!?
All the new students knew this director steps spell during years... Until a new director arrived. A tall man....
And suddenly, a thick foam protection appeared on the ceiling !!! 😅
Wow talk about privilege ph kids get hurt for years but the minute an adult whines its suddenly fixing time
"'Cause you had a bad day" what a perfect line for these dang staircases...
You're takin' one down...
@@Citylight-yq8dp sing a sad song just to turn it around
6:20 that's a good place to sit and chatting with friends:D
Great, now the school's gonna remove it because we can't have that
Your friend leans to the stairs, it turns out there is a hidden button at the stairs, you and your friend enter the secret room. The door is closed.
To be continue..
@@ilikeyoursuitandtie1073 But it turns out that you and your friend can't come back anymore, and in the secret room there is a hallway that might lead them out of the room.
To be continued
@@adristisarika the hallway leads to …. A teacher lounge with games and everything .
@@abufarsakh9919 And it seems that the teacher lounge holds a mystery, or maybe many
4:33 i love how next to the door there is a sign "level 1"
1:53
*imagine sitting on a throne while crapping*
Everyone else: What a werid staircase
Me: This guy went to many universities
Yes, I know that these aren't from the same person.
I think that at the stairs at 6:15, the stairs actually leads somewhere, you just had to complete the level you're on before they allow you to continue...
Or they are the stairs to Miss Zarves' class on the nineteenth story.
Alien :what was this video about again ?
Humans: a story of how we use extra cement and paint to reduce over population.
Some die of pain, some die of bleeding and some of laughter.
Simple logic.😊
Those stairs look like the stairs in my weird dreams
5:49 It's like a platformer game with invisible platforms where you gotta figure out where the platforms are by the design on the ceiling
I like to imagine, when I see stairs that lead through walls or nowhere, that they are portals to the Wizarding world👀✨
..like there is no other explanation on why someone sane would put them there.🤣🤣
Yer a Harry Potter fan aren't ya
I had the same thought too.
What makes you think sanity was involved here?
Key word being sane. Sanity is a rather rare and precious commodity these days
Either to able to sit and not be stepped on, because they want to have fun and confuse people or as a prop for fan videos for example Harry Potter. Or as a prop for their own original content.
0:27
Ah yes I broke my bones 50 times just looking at this
Ahhh, I can finally be at peace knowing that the types of stairs I see in my dreams exist in real life too
1:50 Guest: "Where is your bathroom?"
Owner: "Up the stairs".
Guest: "Where are the stairs?"
Owner: "In the bathroom".
Hysterically done. I enjoyed this alot.
6:50 my anxiety went 📈
The fuzzy one? I see nothing wrong with it
Do you perhaps mean 6:56? Because that one… 😰
I effing hate spiral staircases. I get dizzy just looking at them 😵
7:13 That is actually for wheelchair parking. Bring the kid up the play area via elevator and then push it down the padded ramp, where it gets back into the wheelchair after it recovers. The kids will have a blast.
I don't see a ramp of any sort. And why would a kid want to be in a play area without their mobility aid?
@@jonesnori There are various reasons for needing a wheelchair. Not all are required to be unable to use their lower limbs. Even those without control of their lower limbs benefit in play without their chair. It strengthens their upper body. Like physiotherapy but funner and it creates an area where they can play like “normal” kids.
@@YeahNo True. There was (maybe still is) a camp on Martha's Vineyard that catered to kids with cerebral palsy, and I know they took them into the ocean periodically. Many had little control over their limbs, so there would be an able-bodied adult partnered with each kid to help, and keep them safe in the water. People do use wheelchairs for all sorts of reasons. Thanks for helping me think this through.
6:07 had me Laughing and Crying at the Same Time. Where did you go, Common Sense?!😂😂😭😭💀💀
I'm genuinely wondering if it's an art installation :))
Common sense left the building in the 2020 US Election....
@@weareallbornmad410 it's an art installation until some drunk actually take shit on it 😆😆😆
5:01 that's a pretty good way to feel some nature breeze when you're feeling down
One day, with out my glasses on, I started walking after coming down the stairs, as I thought I was done with the stairs. Little did I realize there were like 4 more stairs to step down. Of course I went flying and crashed into the door post. Needless to say I never did that again.
Wow. I'm visually impaired. I have an inoperable cyst on my left optic nerve that causes my eyes to work opposite of one another, so I have no depth perception, tunnel vision, (where I can't see below my nose) and double vision. I would have to flat out close my eyes and walk down these steps!
That sounds so difficult to go through, I hope one day they'll be able to help you, much love and support 💞
@@Sophie-gn8jw that is so sweet of you! Thank you!!!
I had cancer, in the form of a germ cell tumor that started growing in the center of my brain (around the time I was born) and grew down into my spinal cord, blocking off the passageway for cerebral spinal fluid to leave my brain, roughly six months after I turned 13 years old.
The cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) built up inside my brain and caused it to swell.
Since the skull bone is outside the brain, there isn't much room for the brain to swell.
The pressure from the swelling caused my pupils (black dot at center of eyes) to dilate (expand) to the point where you could no longer see the iris (color) of my eyes.
The pressure also caused vomiting and a terrible pain inside my head.
About four months after the CSF build up in my brain began (hydrocephalus) my brain developed a cyst on my left optic nerve and as the hydrocephalus grew more intense, a bundle of nerves wrapped around the cyst like vines. (The cyst is somewhat like a fluid filled blister). The development of the cyst was another way my brain was trying to relieve the pressure from the swelling.
Eight months after I started developing hydrocephalus (and the visual impairment from hydrocephalus) I had a CT scan done and that's when they found the tumor.
I had an MRI, with contrast, the next morning, and the contrast caused the tumor to light up on the MRI scans, which meant the tumor was cancer.
I had a 6 hour surgery the next day, where complications arose, and the likelihood that I would ever wake again were reduced to .1%.
Several days later when I did wake, I was paralyzed from my cheekbones down to my toes.
I had to relearn everything, at 14, from how to talk to how to sit up on my own, stand, balance, walk, wash my hair, brush my teeth, tie my shoes, say my alphabet, everything.
I had 3 more surgeries, to relieve the hydrocephalus, and ended up needing a ventriculoperitoneal shunt, which they put on the right side of my brain. This shunt works very similar to an IV bag and line: it has a tube in the center of my brain that collects CSF and pushes it into a pouch, outside my brain. As the pouch gets full, it pushes the fluid down another long tube that runs down and drains in my stomach.
I had 6 and a half weeks of radiation treatments after that.
A little over a year after I went into remission was when they found the cyst on my optic nerve and I was diagnosed as visually impaired.
However, being visually impaired was an excellent trade for being able to live, so I can't complain!!!
I feel extremely blessed to be alive!
Thank you so much again! ❤

For someone who has seen a lot of Omori-related videos, this UA-cam recommendation is one of the most evil jokes I've ever seen.
*Ayo the pizza is here!*
MARI NOOOO
SAME
NOOOO 😭
ah yes the accident that was 4 years ago i always remember when mari just died by falling down the stairs
Ahh my old enemy...
Stairs.
We share a common foe my friend
omori players rn
A school I went to had shiny white tile floors white walls that were the same color with really bright lights so that it all blended together the stairs were invisible. It also had blind corners that were everywhere and every doorway had a one inch metal strip. It was very difficult to not get hurt in the supposedly disabled people friendly new building.
So many people don't seem to realise that when you camouflage stairs or turn them into an optical illusion, other people fall down them.
All the staircases here violate the building codes.
Me who's clumsy af can imagine myself falling and breaking all my bones
I can relate...
I think the people who built it must be getting commission from the hospital near by
Mari's perfectionism of having a pretty staircase ended up resulting in a pretty bad fall

When the pube-themed staircase ends up being the best of the lot.
6:20 my school has plenty of those, you still need the stairs for another room but they didn't want to just end the stairs there XD
1:11 What they wanted to say:
“Hit yourself. 3 months from now, you will thank us at 3rd floor.”
Shut up
Still doesn't make sense
@@adewafarm7349 that’s rude my dude
Loool
It says
Hit yourself at 3rd floor. You will thank us 3 months from now.
Meaning go to the gym at 3rd floor. You'll thank the gym for the workout support after three months.
'Hit yourself' basically means 'Knock yourself out', 'use this stuff', or somethings like that
2:14 I've seen it all, now. I now have *Trust issues*
Welcome to the fellowship. Have you not had these before?
I understand that it's odd to see the wheelchair design on stairs, but that side of the stairs has grips and the handrail so it's for disabled people who can walk but need the handrail/bump caps on the end of the stairs for whatever reason. Not every disabled person needs a wheelchair :)
Very fair point.nI'm disabled , but I hadn't even considered that when I saw the picture.
Mitch hedberg would have loved those escalator stairs.
i stayed at a motel/hotel (i guess it was originally a motel they put an enclosing roof over) where the stairs had a similar non-uniformly striped carpet on the entire horizontal/vertical surface so it was hard to see the edges. i noticed when i my eyesight was going bad, it becomes extremely hard to pick out edges and assign depth to them, so now i really feel the dangers of old people. even sidewalks when the sun is overhead is a little scary because lack of telltale shadows at changes of elevation. it's funny how our brains seem to just build a 3d model of our surroundings in our minds with much conscious effort. a great system! when it works :)
