I found this originally on BoingBoing, but wanted to capture it here.

This flash app is the first price winner of the 2009 Best Visual Illusion of the Year award. The flash app demonstrates why the Curve Ball seems to ‘break’.

Check out the page. I wonder if others come to the same conclusion that, knowing the curve ball is an optical illusion, the knowing doesn’t make the curve any easier to hit!
