An optical illusion captured in a TikTok video is currently causing a stir on the internet. The focus is on an American Quarter Horse named Rudnik, whose direction of movement is a mystery to many.

A photo of Alesia Willard and her Blue Roan American Quarter Horse named Rudnik.  Willard's TikTok video went viral because Rudnik created an optical illusion while walking in the snow.

Alesia Willard has a remarkable moment with her five-year-old Blue Roan American Quarter Horse. Rudnik, with his characteristic black curls and dark coat, forms an extremely strong contrast against the white snow background on a snowy January day. This striking contrast between the horse’s dark coat and the bright white snow surroundings makes it difficult to recognize Rudnik and his exact movements.

In this scene Willard briefly loses his orientation: is her horse moving away from her or towards her? She decides to film this fascinating moment and shares the video on the social media platform TikTok. The video is a hit and has been viewed more than 14 million times within a few days.

For some users, the direction of the horse’s movement seems self-evident. But upon closer inspection and longer inspection, opinions are divided. What initially seems clear turns out to be a fascinating mystery upon closer inspection.

Curious? Watch the viral video and find out which side of the debate you belong to. Is the horse moving away from the camera or coming closer?
