We’ve never seen it “work.” Is it fixable?** A: Likely not if the looped ends that attach it to each spiral wire are detached. It is probably bent but it can probably still work if you can put it back together and it isnt really bent up. Give it a shot or exchange it. Its a cool toy for kids ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great illusion *by A***R on 30 May 2024* Great little trick , confuses me and I know how it works. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This Will Fool You *by B***S on 8 April 2026* Very cool optical illusion.
