    Directions: First look at the waterfall. Then proceed to find where the water is coming from. As you look down the canal of water, try to figure out where the height of the towers are. The ground-to-sky perception is off in this picture, making this apparatus impossible.
    Reason: This, again, is impossible in a 3-d world, but in a 2-d world this is absolutely possible. This picture distorts the image by the person's perspective. The person looking at this will obtain the imagery in their eye as normal, as the brain begins to perceive it and study it a little bit more, the person will realize that this is not possible. This illusion has the brain confused because our brains always assume that adjacent edges must join, and that's how they get you.

    Narcolepsy is the sleep disorder that makes a person spontaneously fall asleep. They can't control their consciousness. So they fall asleep at random activities and times and stay awake when they're not suppose to. Narcolepsy can occur between the ages of 15 and 25, but essentially can occur at any point in a person's life. It cannot be diagnosed, so there is no treatment of any kind to prevent the outcome of narcolepsy.
    The reason behind narcolepsy is not known today, but is still being researched to search for a reason. In some fields of study, scientists believe that narcolepsy is the result of the deficiency of hypocretin, a protein in the brain responsible for keeping you awake. Hypocretin is secreted by the hypothalamus in the brain. When there are abnormalities in the hypocretin secretion, REM or rapid eye movement sleep and sleep patterns are effected. There are experiments being conducted on narcolepsy now that use dogs and mice as test subjects. Scientists are trying to correct the deficiency of hypocretin in the animals with a narcolepsy drug.
