you mean I am supposed to see something other than two loops, fruit loops maybe? I can only see two separate loops. Of course they have that funny moving pattern.
The illusion is actually that the 2 loops are both perfect circles, despite how they appear to the eye.
The one in the middle looks a bit square to me, like a TV screen
Wow! Saw two but would never have guessed they were circular!
Not for a moment . I saw 2 separate rings immediately . Something wrong with me????
The illusion here is that they are perfect circles, but the pattern makes them look warped. I don’t think they appear as two entwined loops though, still separate…
I just saw a little blurring, i don’t know… It doesn’t work with me.
Clearly two separate loops to me – but they do not look like circles – more square.
As a couple of people said above, that’s the illusion!
Thanks for this one, Richard
It’d be interesting to see what they look like when moving. They definitely and clearly look like two separate loops, although the illusion does make them look warped and twisted, almost squared in places, so that element of the illusion works really well 
lol, I get high when I roll my eyes looking at it! lol

Well this one makes me nicely dizzy! Yep, even though I know it’s two separate circles, it definitely looks like a spiral too.
V. Good. It would orobably have fooled me if I hadn’t read the text first.
I believe it’s two sparate loops – can’t see it as anything else!
I briefly saw the loops as a spiral before I read the text, they don’t appear as perfect circles though
Yeah, it two separate circle.
obvious it was two seperate hoops, my eyes dont fool me lol
Yup I read the text first so it kind of cheated me out of the experience.
