Schizophrenics aren’t the only ones who see the concave face — people who are drunk or high can also ‘beat’ the illusion. A similar disconnect between what the brain sees and what it expects to see may be occurring during these drug-induced states.

Should be quite easy to test... ;-)
 

Good quality Syrian rue (Peganum harmala) for an incredible price!

Shocked !

I think I am Schizophrenic without knowing!? I did not get that illusion until the very end of the video... It look like the back of the mask.

Am I crazy?

You mean that when you see the back (orange color), you see it as the back (of course you *know* it is the back) ?
Maybe you were high Pleased

Yeah I see it as the back. And I don't smoke weed! Heck, I only done LSD once ever! This dose not worry me though... I kinda always wondered if I was somewhat crazy in the coconut.

I am not sure if I should be worried. Or just go on with my life as I would have Confused .

That's amazing. I COULD NOT make myself see it as concave!

If you CAN see it as concave when "high" that gives interesting evidence to the idea that being "high" helps you actually percieve REALITY vs the normal illusions of waking consciousness.
