This particular version is more about the characters depicted (Denji and Power from Chainsaw Man), who are famous for being endearingly stupid.
The more earnest versions you tend to see on TikTok are mostly posted by, or at least targeted at, actual kids who don't yet understand how vision works. Nobody on Lemmy is under the age of 30.

My brother in Christ why did this turn into a personal attack?! 😂
I am 29 ;)
Nobody on Lemmy is under the age of 30.
Although I might feel 30 sometimes, I'll have you know I'm a ripe 28 & ¾
I'm also 28 and three quarters. Weird.
Greetings fellow ~~kids~~ adults.
I'm way under the age of 30
My age has been overestimated but never by 13 year.
Get out of here you literal baby!
I'm only 24 but I'm on Kbin I guess so you got me there
I'm 24, I can't believe you'd accuse me of such a thing.

I would like to hear an actual explanation. I don’t know shit about light physics but my attempt to explain it is that the trajectory of the light is such that it reflects off of the egg into your eyes and that it is this trajectory that is reflected in the mirror.
I mean, yeah, basically. It's really not very complicated.

Because reality uses Raytracing instead of Screen-space reflections!
This is a hilarious and true answer to the question.
Funny comic, ~~but wow that compression looks awful.~~

Found the artists danbooru for anyone who doesn't want to use twitter
Thank you so much for this. I really hate giving that website views. Nobody should be using Twitter in 2023.
It also loads like absolute shit

People can be so stupid
I thought this whole "object behind paper against a mirror" thing was just a meme at first because the result is very intuitive and not at all shocking... But then I guess people genuinely didn't get it? People really can be so stupid.

Why do they have sharpened teeth? That's a little creepy
They're from an anime, Chainsaw Man. Haven't watched idk why they have sharp teeth, but my best guess is that it's an anime where they use their OP chainsaw teeth to make a killing in the lumber industry, that's definitely what it's about.

Its an optional illusion. Nothing exists and we are but the stuff of dreams.
I love Power.
She's the best. Chainsaw Man is great for many reasons, but the powerful women with agency is one of the best. Especially for a shonen manga.
Magnets
I am angleless...
Lights a funny thing, innit?
