it's an animated gif, it doesn't change directions, stare at the arm or leg that is stretched out and you will have the same problem I did.

1. hold your handsout in front of you in fists.
2. stick both your index fingers up
3. now stick your thumb out creating a nice 90* angle

The hand that makes the L shape is your left. Now tilt your head to your left. Does it match the same side that her head is tilted to?



Didn't think so. Her head is tilted to her right.

She goes both ways. I've concluded.

I refreshed the image a couple of times and she switches and your direction doesn't prove anything.

Just download the picture and refresh it on your browser. We're both right in terms of direction. But depending on the direction she's spinning, her head tilts toward that direction. The person who made the animation did indicate centripetal force. Conclusion, she spins toward the direction her head tilts toward. She spins toward whichever side her leg is lifted.

download and refresh it a couple times!

Regardless of all, it's still not an illusion.

Well since her head is tilted to her right, and her right leg is the one lifted, then you just proved me right.

When she spins left, the out line of her right leg, from light reflection, appears over her left. When she spins right, the outline of her left leg, from light reflection, appears over her right. She spins both ways. I'm not gonna waste my time to get all possible frames out of this picture going both directions.

An image of her spinning to her right. Right leg is up. No over shadowing in this photo so it's harder to prove.

The "overshadowing" is a blip.
