Internet users have also started to give their own opinions and theories to determine which side he is facing. At one point, it does look like the man on the swing is facing the building but many people are saying that he is facing the camera. The video is a perfect example of optical illusion with netizens even drawing diagrams and markings to show which side he is facing. In the video, one can also hear two girls debating on which side is the man facing. One Twitter users wrote, “I feel like everyone who is saying 'facing the building' is trolling us”. Another user wrote, “How is he facing the camera, I'm trying so hard to see this. Some scientist needs to come and explain this because I'm starting to think he's a ghost or a glitch in the matrix”.
