Rickroll Illusion Category: Afterimages | Added: September 22, 2009 | 38 comments This afterimage is based on one one of the most recent internet trends "rickrolling" in which a link to another web site or video directs instead of Rick Astley's 1987 "Never Gonna Give You Up" music video on Youtube. To see this image stare at the cross in the center for about 30 seconds and then look away at a blank surface - blinking repeatedly can help to make it easier to see.

Posted by #1 on April 25, 2010 I absolutely admire these illusions. They are phonomanol works of art. in my opinion I think the Jesus Illusion is the most interesting.

Posted by SGH on June 20, 2011 This a giant step backwards in the arts of visual humor. Funny...but cruel. Awesome never the less... However, I would not recommend anyone to try this at home or anywhere else.
You really should be ashamed. Really. Your question deserves no answer.
