I dont see a difference.

You can close one eye and block out half and stare at it for a long time...but it still looks like it's going clockwise.

[OldYamcha]

I can't get it to spin clockwise again, after turning once. :\

[Bojack]

I still don't get it. I've just filed it under 'black magick' and moved on.

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Watch the way the feet spin in relation to the way the feet in the shadow spin. Cover up the top half too. Trippy.

O_o

Some people think that it's a trick, or only partially animated, but it's not.

The lack of any defining features (completely black, no illumination from a light source), performing this type of motion (spinning, as well as bobbing up and down), seen at this approximate angle, all together achieve the effect of an optical illusion despite that it is a fully animated figure moving in a complete circle.

There's no way to tell which way the figure is spinning just by looking at the figure itself. The shadow gives it away, though. =o

It didn't change and then when I looked away, out of the corner of my eye I saw it change and watched it. It's not an illusion, it's a graphic that changes when the foot is neither on the left or the right side. When it's in the middle it switches the other way.

Edit, after closer inspection, the shadow also changes. When the lifted foot's shadow is seen, the other foot turns one way but after direction is turned, the foot turns the other way. Not an optical illusion, just a hoax.

[Bojack]

Is it? I thought it was real, seeing as how I could change the direction when I wanted to. But it does seem friggin impossible that something could obviously be spinning one way and then, with enough effort, it's moving another way. I'm all for this hoax theory.

[The Not Cool Not Tapion]

It changed when you wanted to because you stared at it long enough until it did change, leading you to believe it was your mind.

[Burter]

...It's clockwise. I don't see it going counter-clockwise at all. I don't get why people are are seeing it going counter-clockwise.

[Burter]

Okay, I'm officially spooked.

I've figured out a way to get it to change at will. Very creepy.

[Retane]

I still think you're all friggin nuts
