The block marked A and the Block marked B are exactly the same shade and color.
If you don't believe it, print it out then cut one of the squares out and lay it next to the other......

Open it in paint, pull the color from one of the squares, and draw a fat line with that color to the other square.

LOL, I showed my parents. Neither of them believed it. I showed them in paint, cut the B square and placed it next to the A square. They say the people that created this knew you would do that and have it rigged. LOL..... They refuse to believe it.

I did that on a similar one for my kids.  They still didn't believe it.  The brain is a stubborn bastard.

Open it in paint. Cut out one square and put it next to the other. Or, do as I said earlier, grab the color from one and draw a line to the other. That's the point, it's an illusion, but they are the same color.

You can force her to spin the other way... just imagine the foot moving in front of her body right to left, then imagine it moving behind her body right to left...

The blocks look the same size to me. Then again, I've been staring at .300 Blackout OALs for the last hour or so.
For the spinning girl, if I try to do a math problem in my head, she "switches direction" and goes counterclockwise (seen from above). If I view her with no other input, she's spinning clockwise.
