Breshy14 Nov 27, 2005	Cool Man
peccarypie Nov 30, 2005	Neato! M.C. Escher is turning over in his grave.
slimjim986 Dec 03, 2005	the hole is on the inside. holes can only be put in, like holes IN the earth, so whether it is "inside" or "outside", the holes will always be in the inside of the structure.
Graceiswayneat Dec 06, 2005	That is just CRaAaAaAZzZzYyYyY!!!
Firebolt111 Dec 10, 2005	i think they are on the outside
_hippychick_ Dec 16, 2005	cool!!! nice optical illusion. i guess it is neither outside or inside. i think it is really impossible. it depends o how you look at it.
Baby_Girl Dec 19, 2005	It looks like there on the inside and the outside very confusing but cool
GEORGIA_GIRL Dec 21, 2005	It looks like it's on the inside....but i have looked so hard to figure it out i have a head ache!!
act62192 Dec 21, 2005	i stared at it for two whole minutes, then looked at a white wall, and i still dont see jesus!
act62192 Dec 21, 2005	I KNOW! I KNOW! i know the answer. i used the equation [(1904100)+582.1875]344. 1904 is the year of the 1904 World's fair, 100 is the grade i got on my math test, 582.1875 is my lucky number, 3 is the number of holes in the picture, 4 is the number of corners, and the other 4 is the number of sides. The answer comes to 91419945. If you take coresponding letter of each diget in the answer, you can come up with the word inside. So obviously, the holes are on the inside.
Riddlerman Dec 23, 2005	It's impossible to tell! If you were to try and make the model of it with a rigid material like wood, it would be physically impossible!!
Riddlerman Dec 23, 2005	PS> Great Fun!!!!
TehIgnored Dec 24, 2005	passes out and hits head on desk......ouch.... i couldn't stare too long...a few seconds was already messin with my head.

mr_brainiac Jan 10, 2006	It looks like a window frame from M.C.Escher's house. The holes, they go whichever way you want them to.
SPUTNIK2 Jan 16, 2006	I don't kmow, which way are the suppose to be
puppylover1031 Jan 17, 2006	awsome teaser i really like it but my brain hurts????!!!!!!!!!!
Armaidenpriya Jan 24, 2006	The great psycic seer (who can't even spell the word ) says... BOTH!
Leecam Feb 21, 2006	ugh... you guys really think that it is at just 1? it's both, it just depends on how you look at it... if you try, you can see both, I also don't know how this hurt your brain... I see both in about 4 seconds... oh, and, to whoever said that they wish that they could make these up? (no offense to whoever submitted this) these people USUALLY don't make them up, sometimes they do, but this one wasn't... they find them and submit them... it would take a LONG time to make these up... lol but they're still fun to do, and don't stop trying to make them up... someone had to make it up in the first place if you do a google search for "optical illuseans" but spelt correctly (yes, I know, I can't spell lol) you should find some good sites with the same things as these... going back to what I said at the beginning (about these being found, not made) some of these were made... I'm not saying that the people who posted these didn't do work... and if they did "make" this one, then they "made" it, not knowing that it had already been made... well, I think I'll stop talking for now lol
Leecam Feb 21, 2006	AHHH!!! sorry about posting so much lol
Darkangel12793 Mar 02, 2006	xD I see both, but this was really cool ^_^ I told my friends to come here and they complained of brain ache
(user deleted) Mar 11, 2006	This isn't a rectangle at all. The holes are both inside and outside... the left one being on the inside, the middle being halfway, and the right one being outside. it's not a rectangle... rather... something that is more akin to a bowtie shape.
Methlos Mar 12, 2006	i nearly made 1 ov these in wood work at school
soccerstar_1515 Mar 13, 2006	i think they r both cuz.....i think they r
mik512 Mar 15, 2006	i think im dead...........................................
riddlelover Mar 17, 2006	Strange and unusual
amygurl101 Mar 19, 2006	pretty neat. made my head hert tho when i thot about it 2 long.
Mellew Mar 29, 2006	my ees r crosing so forgiv my speling
Smart_Alex Apr 18, 2006	Wow! Confusiing
Winstonian May 02, 2006	If you look to the right side, it's outside, if you look left, it's inside
scallio May 12, 2006	Way cool! That's just plain freaky.
auntiesis Jun 02, 2006	I don't know how you can say inside or outside, because there is no real inside or outside to this made up optical illusion shape. So therefore the holes are just sitting on an illusion. Good one though. So glad I found these, they really give the old eyes a workout. Keep them coming and thanks.

I KNOW! i know the answer. i used the equation [(1904100)+582.1875]344. 1904 is the year of the 1904 World's fair, 100 is the grade i got on my math test, 582.1875 is my lucky number, 3 is the number of holes in the picture, 4 is the number of corners, and the other 4 is the number of sides. The answer comes to 91419945. If you take coresponding letter of each diget in the answer, you can come up with the word inside. So obviously, the holes are on the inside.

I see both in about 4 seconds... oh, and, to whoever said that they wish that they could make these up? (no offense to whoever submitted this) these people USUALLY don't make them up, sometimes they do, but this one wasn't... they find them and submit them... it would take a LONG time to make these up... lol but they're still fun to do, and don't stop trying to make them up... someone had to make it up in the first place if you do a google search for "optical illuseans" but spelt correctly (yes, I know, I can't spell lol) you should find some good sites with the same things as these... going back to what I said at the beginning (about these being found, not made) some of these were made... I'm not saying that the people who posted these didn't do work... and if they did "make" this one, then they "made" it, not knowing that it had already been made... well, I think I'll stop talking for now lol Leecam Feb 21, 2006 AHHH!!! sorry about posting so much lol Darkangel12793 Mar 02, 2006 xD I see both, but this was really cool ^_^ I told my friends to come here and they complained of brain ache therealchriss Mar 11, 2006 This isn't a rectangle at all.

Confusiing Winstonian May 02, 2006 If you look to the right side, it's outside, if you look left, it's inside scallio May 12, 2006 Way cool! That's just plain freaky. auntiesis Jun 02, 2006 I don't know how you can say inside or outside, because there is no real inside or outside to this made up optical illusion shape. So therefore the holes are just sitting on an illusion. Good one though. So glad I found these, they really give the old eyes a workout.

The answer comes to 91419945. If you take coresponding letter of each diget in the answer, you can come up with the word inside. So obviously, the holes are on the inside.

I see both in about 4 seconds... oh, and, to whoever said that they wish that they could make these up? (no offense to whoever submitted this) these people USUALLY don't make them up, sometimes they do, but this one wasn't... they find them and submit them... it would take a LONG time to make these up... lol but they're still fun to do, and don't stop trying to make them up... someone had to make it up in the first place if you do a google search for "optical illuseans" but spelt correctly (yes, I know, I can't spell lol) you should find some good sites with the same things as these... going back to what I said at the beginning (about these being found, not made) some of these were made... I'm not saying that the people who posted these didn't do work... and if they did "make" this one, then they "made" it, not knowing that it had already been made... well, I think I'll stop talking for now lol Leecam Feb 21, 2006 AHHH!!! sorry about posting so much lol Darkangel12793 Mar 02, 2006 xD I see both, but this was really cool ^_^ I told my friends to come here and they complained of brain ache therealchriss Mar 11, 2006 This isn't a rectangle at all.

I KNOW! i know the answer. i used the equation [(1904100)+582.1875]344. 1904 is the year of the 1904 World's fair, 100 is the grade i got on my math test, 582.1875 is my lucky number, 3 is the number of holes in the picture, 4 is the number of corners, and the other 4 is the number of sides. The answer comes to 91419945. If you take coresponding letter of each diget in the answer, you can come up with the word inside. So obviously, the holes are on the inside.

I'm not saying that the people who posted these didn't do work... and if they did "make" this one, then they "made" it, not knowing that it had already been made... well, I think I'll stop talking for now lol Leecam Feb 21, 2006 AHHH!!! sorry about posting so much lol Darkangel12793 Mar 02, 2006 xD I see both, but this was really cool ^_^ I told my friends to come here and they complained of brain ache therealchriss Mar 11, 2006 This isn't a rectangle at all.

Leecam Feb 21, 2006 ugh... you guys really think that it is at just 1? it's both, it just depends on how you look at it... if you try, you can see both, I also don't know how this hurt your brain... I see both in about 4 seconds... oh, and, to whoever said that they wish that they could make these up? (no offense to whoever submitted this) these people USUALLY don't make them up, sometimes they do, but this one wasn't... they find them and submit them... it would take a LONG time to make these up... lol but they're still fun to do, and don't stop trying to make them up... someone had to make it up in the first place if you do a google search for "optical illuseans" but spelt correctly (yes, I know, I can't spell lol) you should find some good sites with the same things as these... going back to what I said at the beginning (about these being found, not made) some of these were made... I'm not saying that the people who posted these didn't do work... and if they did "make" this one, then they "made" it, not knowing that it had already been made... well, I think I'll stop talking for now lol Leecam Feb 21, 2006 AHHH!!! sorry about posting so much lol Darkangel12793 Mar 02, 2006 xD I see both, but this was really cool ^_^ I told my friends to come here and they complained of brain ache therealchriss Mar 11, 2006 This isn't a rectangle at all. The holes are both inside and outside... the left one being on the inside, the middle being halfway, and the right one being outside. it's not a rectangle... rather... something that is more akin to a bowtie shape. Methlos Mar 12, 2006 i nearly made 1 ov these in wood work at school soccerstar_1515 Mar 13, 2006 i think they r both cuz.....i think they r mik512 Mar 15, 2006 i think im dead........................................... riddlelover Mar 17, 2006 Strange and unusual amygurl101 Mar 19, 2006 pretty neat. made my head hert tho when i thot about it 2 long.

Confusiing Winstonian May 02, 2006 If you look to the right side, it's outside, if you look left, it's inside scallio May 12, 2006 Way cool! That's just plain freaky. auntiesis Jun 02, 2006 I don't know how you can say inside or outside, because there is no real inside or outside to this made up optical illusion shape. So therefore the holes are just sitting on an illusion. Good one though. So glad I found these, they really give the old eyes a workout. Keep them coming and thanks. danielzerman Jun 18, 2006 good one and for everyone who reads this comment could someone else please submit some Optical-Illusions thanks brits1994 Jun 22, 2006 I LOVE IT IT MAKES ME DIZZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The answer comes to 91419945. If you take coresponding letter of each diget in the answer, you can come up with the word inside. So obviously, the holes are on the inside.

Pizzazz2u Dec 31, 2006	Something my drafting teacher taught me, was to make sure that ALL of your perpendiculars and your parrallels are preset. These drawings can confuse or trick most ALL eyes! WTG, Jake
Graciegoober Jan 02, 2007	Yes!!!!
(user deleted) Jan 03, 2007	I think it is out side because if you folow the line the circles are on the out side
(user deleted) Jan 03, 2007	I looked at it again i now think its both
sftball_rocks13 Mar 11, 2007	act62192-funny how you came up with "inside" and irish-reposting everyone's comments is just a litte annoying btw this teaser was really cool-holes are on both sides
marymmm92 Apr 24, 2007	OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE OUTSIDE INSIDE I WILL STOP GUESSING ITS NONE DUUUUUUUUUU
MikeMan1216 May 04, 2007	You could get a headache if you look at this too long.
nerdyiscool May 16, 2007	Ooh, this is like the blaarnik band, or the zuber band, or... dang it what's that onesided thingy that you get when you put a half twist in a strip of paper then tape the ends together? I'm gonna google that. Watch this space!
nerdyiscool May 16, 2007	Its a mobius strip. Couldn't remember from Mrs. S's math class, all i remember was that it was like may and I was dying to get out... I hated that class (hence the initial and not the teacher's full name. I'm just going to say one thing, ppl I know will get it... oh, joy!)
rose996 May 24, 2007	lol to everyone's comments. Definitely a good one
famouslastwords May 31, 2007	inside outside its hard to choose WHICH 1 IS IT????
lilrena4ever May 31, 2007	Okay.....now u got me.....lol its a new one!!!LOL!!
FutureMD Jun 18, 2007	I liked this one, but I did prefer the "impossible" elephant illusion. And to those of you who are answering the question-the answer is neither-its an IMPOSSIBLE rectangle, remember?
i_lov_jordan07 Jun 23, 2007	The rectangle appears to be moving on a table...nice!
ringpop_rara Jun 23, 2007	i think it's inside jake
saltydavid Jun 28, 2007	If I had $50 for every time someone sent me one of these stupid things through email I would be the richest guy in America. My sister sends me the joke of the day every day. Then she sends me these religious sayings that say that if I don't forward them to 10 people that I am not going to heaven or that I am not a real Christian or something like that. I mean come on, just because I don't want to forward an email, I'm a bad person? What about the ones with the pictures that are so obviously Photoshoped that you want to scream. Do we really think that Hillary R Clinton does not know which side of her chest to put her had for the National Anthem? And what about the one with the shark jumping up to eat the rescue diver jumping from a Blackhawk helicopter? Get a life people!
(user deleted) Jul 03, 2007	I vote outside, because if you think it's inside, it is tecnicly see through the rectangle, and the artist did not draw it so that you could see the other side of the rectangle
1smart_okie Jul 06, 2007	my head hurts
(user deleted) Jul 22, 2007	Neither. XD I did something like this in school.
JCZ07 Aug 05, 2007	I think it's both, (but if you can only choose one, I say inside)
Freezinjoe Aug 28, 2007	I say neither. It looks to me like they circles are on the bottome
crazylady2 Sep 08, 2007	I've just been checking everything out and so far this one is my favorite. Lots of fun!!!But every time I think it's inside it kinda loods like it's outside too! REALLY COOL!!
luckylefty Sep 09, 2007	Woo Hoo. Nuber 100 ! My geometry teacher showed us one like this except with a triangle.
browns2397 Oct 14, 2007	i think they are outside
974999gec Oct 25, 2007	I'm not really sure about anything anymore.
Deedee123 Dec 29, 2007	Its not even 3D... it;s neither
Holo Jan 12, 2008	Neither; its 2-D.
lauren044-- Jan 20, 2008	errr... irish41 sure posted a lot of comments...
lauren044-- Jan 20, 2008	Nice illusion. I found it hard to drag myself away from the object.
Cimorene Feb 23, 2008	that is ssssooooooo cool i want to try and draw it now!!!!!!!
Jasmine97 Mar 08, 2008	outside
Writeaway Mar 09, 2008	It's not actually a prism, it's a 2-D rectangle with lines drawn on its surface - the lines would make it impossible to exist in 3-D.... so, neither?
(user deleted) Mar 27, 2008	i may be a "noob", but i can say, i know this goes both ways, there is no way that its a one way answer, to answer the guy at the very top of the comments, this is kinda weird, but yeah, it goes both ways, if you go through the volume of the circle thoroughly enough, you will find that it indeed goes both ways.
(user deleted) Mar 27, 2008	go through the volume in the ###rectangle###(made a mistake)
monkeyD Apr 18, 2008	it was weird
huntchasedown Apr 24, 2008	WOW cool
Eemia1212 Jun 22, 2008	there on the outside no the inside no the outside, i'm never gonna figure this one out well done mate
ldswordpainter Jul 03, 2008	DUDE!!! I cant figure it out!!!
dylan99 Aug 28, 2008	it looks like there on the inside but then the outside too but its impossible 4 them 2 b both but then... this and that and oh no ive gone cross-eyed!rofl!!!

(user deleted) Apr 10, 2009	eyes hurt, have a migrain but i know the answere !! !
mir77 May 16, 2009	its not 2-D or 3-D, i think it might be 1-D or 4-D, WAIT those DONT EXIST! this messes with you mind and stuff, and BOY does it hurt, and now my eyes like IT BURNS!
kriskris Sep 06, 2009	I think both?
longhorn Sep 10, 2009	it's neither, there isn't an inside of the rectangle because it's intertwined.....can't spell...so the circle's are just.....well....there
skuxdux Sep 10, 2009	booorraanngg!
Sabbi Sep 21, 2009	Very interesting. The sketch is deceptive and there can't be an answer for this.
Doomsday Oct 11, 2009	if you block off both ends with your fingers, it looks as though the holes really are on the inside.
Frada8D Oct 27, 2009	That is so cool! I made my brain go mush!
dragunlord13 Nov 01, 2009	Either both or neither because I think they go all the way through the rectangle!
Polopis Nov 12, 2009	mush gooey brain nasty owwwww my head is aching but that waz sooooooooo much fun more,more,more!
funnimunki Mar 18, 2010	Holes are neither on the inside or the outside of something, they pass through the object! So although the drawing cannot possibly show an actual object and is merely an optical illusion, the question has nothing to do with the illusion ;) Thats my 2c hehe.
(user deleted) Apr 05, 2010	I say the out side because the circles are leaning right and if you follow the lines you can figure out which way the rectangle is pointing.
kristieshonk Apr 12, 2010	Inside. That's the way I saw it before I knew that there was even a possibility that they could be on the outside, so I'm sticking with inside. What is the correct answer?
Mathgeek007 Aug 08, 2010	Ow. My head... This is my fave illusion!
