So I totally get why one Redditor went to r/AskReddit and posed a similar question to other netizens. The user u/shirofromgame wrote: “What is a scientifically proven fact you refuse to believe?” And the ‘refuse to believe’ part in this case is not that they actually don’t believe it. It’s more that the fact is so outlandish or ridiculous that it just blows their mind.

“I came up with the Reddit post after trying to go to sleep (and failing), and I was thinking about such facts,” u/shirofromgame told Bored Panda. “You see, I was so sleepy that I wrote the question on Reddit and immediately fell asleep after. I actually remembered I wrote it after two days and was surprised to see it had so many replies,” the Redditor adds to her whimsical story.
Out of so many interesting replies, u/shirofromgame says that the very top one messed with them the most. It was the one about how our eyes work. “I really can’t get my mind wrapped around [that],” the Redditor says, “About how our brains flip the image that we see from our eyes.”

There’s also an interesting experiment related to the whole phenomenon. If a person were to wear prism glasses (which do the opposite), they would see the world upside down. But what’s interesting is that after they take the glasses off, the whole world would be upside down for them for a few days. How does it go back to normal? “[Your] cortex puts it back in the right orientation,” Dr. Lee explains.
