It has been studied since the 1800s, but psychologists and philosophers are yet to reach a conclusion as to why it's confusing.
The horizontal lines dividing the "bricks" are straight, but to the human eye they seem "wonky".
Almost 100% of people see them wobbling.
The café wall illusion takes its name from when Brit psychologist Richard Gregory noticed it as a pattern in the bricks of a café.
But he may not have been the first person to discover it.
To this day, however, the cause of the illusion is still not well understood.
According to some theories, it might involve interactions between the neuron and the visual cortex of the brain.
