Okay, these are cool mirrors. They can do magic. I mean look at it, it’s so cool. It combines some of my favorite things: glass and mirrors. I like glass because it looks really nice to the eyes, and I like mirrors because they’re strange. I mean you can look at yourself because it’s so shiny.
It is a magic trick because there are only one or two of the glasses but then the mirrors are around them and make it look like hundreds of glasses. This is called an optical illusion. I learned about it at Beyond the Spectrum. You can take cool selfies in it too. This is just our legs.
