How does it work?

Can one of you tell me how this thing works?? I’m still dazed and confused.....

OK ENGINEERS, PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thinking about how this is achieved at night is far less boring than counting sheep as a means to get to sleep.

Escherian Stairwell at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York. Four minutes well spent watching this one.

no engineers are needed to complicate the issue!
This trick happened for the very first time at CAVES age using at least a pair of TWIN guys... (88)

At those days they got no mirrors and no cameras... )88(

In the beginning I thought I should need this link to solve this case:

I got today the attached image and the meaning is really impressive:

- an almost naked man is inside the well...

- outside is a politician, for sure brazilian, that cheats and send illusory help to the poor guy inside, with chronic promises...

- on the floor, far from man's eyes, lies a stair... B(

( people who don't believe in universal consequence laws are just 'not believers' or 'just stupid'? )
