Is he saying bar or far?

Is he saying bar or far?

Is the man in this video saying bar or far? Click "Play" to find out how the "McGurk Effect" plays tricks on your ears...

In this audiovisual illusion, if you watch and focus on the clip on the left, it sounds like the man is saying “bar.” But if you watch the clip on the right, it suddenly sounds like he’s saying “far.”

This is a result of something called the McGurk Effect, which describes how your ears can trick you, based on what your eyes see.

Watch the video now:

So parents, tell us – what do you hear? Bar or far? Let us know in the comments box below!
