Do this before clicking the link:
Grab a pencil and ruler and do this:
- Draw a 3 unit line, then turn right
- Draw a 1 unit line, then turn right
- Draw a 2 unit line, then turn left
- Draw a 1 unit line, then turn left
- Draw a 2 unit line, then turn right
- Repeat
When the instruction says “turn” it means 90° Seriously, do this. You will eventually start tracing over a previously drawn line and you can stop of course. The pattern will become obvious before you finish.
Okay, ick, I know, but nothing too surprising when you look at it.
But now here’s the spooky part. Do the exact same thing but replace 90° with 120°
Whoa! What the hell!
Okay, it doesn’t prove that Oswald had help, or that aliens built the pyramids… but talk about an amazing coincidence? How does someone discover something like this?
(really, doing this for yourself is worth the effort, but if you want to see what the big deal is without drawing all those lines click here)
