Aeroplane stuck in the air illusion - Parallax

[ParanoidSkeptic2]

Found a video of a woman driving by and seeing a plane that is "stuck in the air." The video is only a few seconds long and it's from TikTok, I couldn't read any of the comments as I do not have a TikTok account so I'm not sure what the people are suggesting.

​

It looks to be some sort of illusion, I mean if the car is moving and the plane is steadily moving, I'd assume that some illusion of motion (or rather lack there of) was created. I'm not sure how this would occur though.

Indeed an illusion created by parallax.

Ah, I see, that makes sense, after seeing this I decided to google it and found this

Seems to be case solved, thank you for clarifying

Late here. It is not any type of advertising since I have no relationship with the owner of the channel, but if anyone is interested, here is a video that explains quite clearly the basic fundamentals of these types of optical illusions.

Here is the video:

No no no.. The clouds are just moving very rapidly to the right. Strong winds!

Anti gravity in its purest form!
