Can a ball roll uphill against gravity? How can the reflection of a circle in a mirror appear as a rectangle? Is it possible that an arrow, when rotated 180 degrees, continues to point in its original direction?  

Kokichi Sugihara, Meiji University Distinguished Professor Emeritus, shares one incredibly impossible object after another and demonstrates how his clever illusions fool the brain, and how math underlies the engineering of each paradoxical illusion.
