- please enjoy this supercut featuring every optical illusion from the under-rated television show BEYOND BELIEF: FACT OR FICTION. the beginning of each episode featured an optical illusion presented by hosts James Brolin (s1) and Jonathan Frakes (s2-4). while the illusions vary in their level of amazement, watching Jonathan Frakes perform them is always beyond belief!

Is there anybody else that is cracking up so hard over the illusion with the rabbit and the duck? It's so underwhelming but the way he narrates it is god-tier which makes it so hilarious.
It lad me to a full blown epiphany

I hear ted mosby
Its like they grabbed something from the thrift shop and said, "yeah that will work."
This is unironical comedy gold dude i love Johnathan Frakes x'D
I love these bits because they’re clearly disconnected from the stories being told. They’re just there because the writers found a cool optical illusion and they had to find a way to fit it into the show
I mean, they are thematically connected to the message of the show for sure, it is underlined quite heavy handedly even few times, but they are satisfying thing to include for the skeptical viewer who might not find the ghost stories that seriously.
Came for the illusions, stayed for Jonathan Frakes
It's true!
A similar event did occur in New Jersey 20 years ago!
Same
Me too
Can it be that this story is fact?
yes,yes it is.
Frakes you.
"Look at this drawing that will fool a child. Now add dramatic music and Jonathan Frakes and it's legendary."
I feel the show really came into its own when they cast Jonathan Frakes as the host. James Brolin was good, don't get me wrong, but Jonathan's performances take it up to another level.
James Brolin’s look just didn’t fit the show. He looked like he was gonna talk like he was in a car commercial every time he was on screen. Frakes’ charisma adds a unique charm to the show that almost feels nostalgic in a way.
Agreed.
I agree as well.
Brolin was a bit more serious, while Frakes was more of the funnier guy. Both works well, I also like Brolin, but if you measure it, I would say, that Frakes charme made it out at the end.
Yes
2:59 he said “You think you’re just a single clown, but from another perspective, you realize you’re the entire circus”
Dose he though?
He didn't
@@discovolante6624 It never happened.
@@StevenLynnMusic nah it happened, i am the full clown
It's a total fabrication
I'm going to be having weird dreams.
"You're dreaming of a beautiful woman. She approaches you. Settles next to you, and looks into your eyes. But, can your perception be trusted? It's actually me. Jonathan Frakes."
"Apologies to any children we may have frightened. Including ours. "
The entire series was made just for these. Some producer was so enthralled by optical illusions he wanted a TV show to display every one he could find.
Pretty much 🤣
Lol
Dedication
Not a chance.
"Take this portrait of a single clown."
All clowns are single.
lol
I've been married for 28 years and we're both clowns you fucking clown
Clown's always come in pair's one master and one apprentice.
RuPaul wheezing in the background from that read
@@EddiePozos but nobody likes clowns
I was looking at the last illusion, the checkerboard, and I was wondering
“what squiggly lines is he talking about? I only see straight lines”
Then I put on my reading glasses and I noticed them. My blurry vision masked the little squares that caused the illusion. So I guess having a clear sight does not always mean seeing clearly 😉
That line should have been included in the show 🤣
Perhaps sometimes the only people who can see clearly... are those who can't
cue the theme song
@@gregorteply9034 yeah that sounds right
“ my apologies to any children we just frightened “ 😂😂😂😂😂
"Especially mine."
13:55 for those who don't want to watch the entire video
“This man is dead... no he is actually alive but laying down”
"Just as you might abandon hope in this man's life so is the same in finding the truth, one must hold faith to reach it."
Laying down what? A book. It's "lying down."
Whenever there's only one piece of cake left and I turn the plate over, the piece just flops on the table.
lol maybe your recipe is off?
Same lol
Practice makes perfect. Just keep trying.
Instructions unclear, ended up with an infinite cake loop. Send help with forks.

This feels like a Vsauce video. I keep waiting to hear "Or is it???" and see Michael staring into my soul.
6:46 cracks me up so much.
' now you can see a truly endangered species a television host'
Can't stop laughing because of it, lol
“Dependent for survival upon the Nielson family” 🥸🤣
@@se7enofnein who is the Nielsen family
I'll bet he took that picture home.
8:06 Man, the way he puts his hand off gave me chills lmao
good job on the editing that the background music loops without cuts
thank you :)
That is what I was thinking!
It jars into season 4's different tune
The fact that so many of these illusions are absolutely terrible just makes it so much better.
I thought most of the illusions were better than not.
So that people suffering from Dunning-Kruger could feel hyper-smart!
Some of the illusions were featured on a children's television programme from Australia, called the "Curiosity Show".
Check it out on TH-cam.
Please he does some more than once, basically.
Actually I was so dumbstruck that I literally couldn't move and soiled myself for days!!!
Jon was enjoying his puns a little too damn much.
Dont know what a pun is, do ya?
@@Mr.B.B.Wolfman At timecode 15:27 there's one of many examples.
LMAO
I do the same with mine...I am pretty that is a lot of people though.
What might seem to be a silk net of truth, might just be a web of lies.
Just when you think Johnathan Frakes is coming up second, you find that he is still, Number One.
Imagine how many commercials you would have had to watch to see all this. I remember this program was like 75% commercials
"The truth is often between the lines..." then a commercial taking you for an idiot.
Lol what kind of cut were you watching. Each episode was about 45 minutes, the normal length of an hour-long program.
I used to LOVE this show when I was a kid. Now I go back and watch it not just because some of the stories are interesting, but to have a good time laughing at some of the bad acting lol
Really? Because a lot of big actors got their start on that show 😅
I came here to play Johnathan Frakes loud enough to wake my friend up
Man, we should be friends
😂😂😂
2:58 "You're not a clown. You're the entire circus" quote from Miles Edgeworth
Came for Jonathan frakes, stayed for the illusions.
Everything sounds like a fortune cookie
I once had a fortune cookie that said 'you'd better mind your own business' ☹

When he said, "portrait of a single clown."
I felt that.
This show was so awesome when I was a kid
Exactly
Never saw it as a kid but being a Star Trek fan, I can't stop laughing at these sorts of videos.
Have you ever gone swimming in the Nile river?
Totally fake. A complete fabrication.
Not a chance
@TheHumanGerm it's still awesome today!
11:18 is my absolute favourite. Blows my mind
This show was the shi back when I was a kid. I remember we used to watch this show religiously every Friday on Fox. The illusion at 13:50 scared the crap out of me as a kid and gave me nightmares, still remember after all these years. I'll never forget about the story of the disappearing boy at the party complaining about monsters.
“How many legs do you see?”
“There….are…..FOUR LEGS!”
Pretty sure this show inspired an entire generation of 3D illusion artists.
I never realized how many of the illusions they repeated in a slightly different way. LOTS of illusions on the lines being the same size lol but I never tire of this cheese.
In our days, it would trick more if the lines actually were different sizes.
@@heisag no it wouldn't. Have you seen how society has advanced . We didn't advance lol
Someone (probably): "No one can fool me"
Jonathan Frakes: "Hold my beard"
the pun game is so strong
Omg I'm so high
The master of Gaslighting messes with your brain for 15 minutes
It's a fabrication. We made it up.
Actually it is 17.85 minutes
it never happened :)
Does no one know what "gaslighting" actually means? If the person isn't making you question your sanity by trying to make you think you're crazy, they aren't gaslighting you.
This show was beyond belief!
Aw dayum
I can’t believe your right Flowe rB logger
Plot twist. Johnathan Frakes was an optical Illusion
Perhaps he never truly gave up the powers of the Q Continuum.
Was Johnathon Frakes really on your screen?
It was a fabrication, it’s false, it’s made up by a writer
Was your host tonight Johnathan Frakes?
A similar event took place.
@@tuskinradar8688 In the Florida area in the turn of the century
Ooo fuuuh dude aw du' dood
14:03 is the moment Will Riker found out about Locutus.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
*Looks at my torrent folder
I'm happy i have this entire series safely on my network storage :) It shall forever live on and be watched for many many years.
"Sometimes, reality can be a cruel deceiver. For example, it may look like I'm robbing this convenience store for drug money, but in reality i'm killing the cashier and THEN robbing this convenience store for drug money.
Truth, or fiction? We'll see if it holds up in court."
I like how after each illusion they give real shitty advice. " Follow the clown as he turns the corner"....k...
If 'Dad jokes' were illusions
This is why I love TH-cam. I think of something that I’d like to see and sure enough, someone has made it already.
The true illusion is my 18 minutes than mysteriously vanish after hitting play.
The world may never know what happened to them.
But they're still there
@@repeekyraidcero wrong. They're gone.
"This word may look like it spells 'false' to you. A closer look shows that it can also be 'true.'"
Me: Uh, sure... *_WITH THE WORD 'FALSE' ON TOP OF IT!_*
man I cracked up at this part, good start into a vid
But also can be the word „true“
2:50. He's not just a clown. He's the entire circus.
No way
The music makes this feel like a Phoenix Wright trial scene presenting evidence.
2:50 Coincidence? I think not!
15:40 That's it
He's a wizard
it's the only explanation
Can this story be true?
@@Hahah998 Not a chance.
That little dry laugh he does is perfect for your claim.
@@keaganwheeler-mccann8565 😂😂😂😂😂😂☀️
2:52 How people describe me
lol
😂😂😂😂
You are not a clown you are the whole circus
@@darren4357 That's correct
The circus and clown drawing was amazing. Wow
Cake on the plate too. Dam
Came for the illusions, slept halfway and woke up an hour later.
This show was ahead of it’s time. Still a amazing show to this day.
Its* time. Possessive pronouns don't use apostrophes.
How are the shoes in the jar an illusion? Like are they not really shoes in a jar? He's like, "Oh, look at these shoes in a jar, crazy right? How'd those get in there?" And then never explains.
I've often wondered what would happen if Riker learned philosophy from Data.
Frakes seems so happy to explain each illusion it's very charming and funny
I'd be happy too if all I had to do was show some optical illusions for a fat paycheck.
defintally underrated, kinda like its own flavor of twilight zone or the night gallery...
actually something else I remember reading an Archie comic where the gang watches a show like this...but jughead would figure out what was true or not every time...with the comic ending if he was just that good...or just saw a rerun
also damn love the music here
Definitely*
As soon as that old decrepit crone disappeared and was replaced with that fashionable young lady I immediately started to miss the old crone
I never know that an optical illusion can become the greatest pun
Define pun.
Pun is a meme word gtfo you Insider meme youngsters
That one episode of Star trek really made jonathan frakes question perception of everything that he wanted to host this show
Which one?
@@TheBanishedWind Star Trek TNG S6 E21 Frame of Mind
i like the way brolin did his illusions, just something about how he delivered those lines hes all serious about something that should be more light hearted
I like the other better
I love that he says it’s a carving of a rabbit, but when he moves it, it makes a very audible thump of hollow plastic
*When you ask Riker why he was running after Stacy* :
alternate title: Johnathon Frakes shows you to increasingly less impressive illusions
Did Johnathan took that mosaic painting of himself back home, or was that just what our writers came up with?
"your not just a clown. your an entire circus" - miles edgeworth
Watching this super it just made me realize I’ve binged every episode on here :( I want more
Frakes: "Take this line drawing of a man in profile, is this an honest man?"
**turns the pic, the word LIAR shows up**
Frakes: **pauses, looks at the camera** "The answer is written across his face."
had me dying xD Frakes ftw
for those interested the mouse and cat one at 10:09 is also has a bird of you hold it the tail of the mouse down with the mouse profile .
You're not a clown, you're the entire circus but from a different perspective.
3:03
Why can't modern TV be this good?
The shoes in a jar isn't really an illusion, because the shoes are clearly in there.
But how?
Bum bum bum
@@bob101910 Idk, either heating up the jar so that it's malleable enough to get a shoe inside, or they shoved smaller pieces into the jar and assembled the shoe using tweezers like they do with a ship in a bottle.
@@bob101910 Magic
I wish I knew where I could watch this show. I never saw it when it was on the air, and now these clips really make me want to see it. :(
They're all on TH-cam and Amazon Prime
the set and music are just perfect.
The B to a 13 is the funniest one. "WOAH!" lol
I used to watch this show as a kid..loved jt
Came for the illusions, woke up in another dimension.
this montage with the intense music and delivery makes it comical.
Spencer Gifts. The show.
This show is the gift that keeps on giving
The cadence of the puns is phenomenal
This is the best one yet! Friggin' hilarious!
Actually a really enjoyable watch cheers
7:00 "The one on the right obviously looks bigger than the one on the left"
Err... no it doesn't
You’re so awesome for this upload. Thank you🤗
ty :)
@@literale You’re welcome💋
I took about 5:30 minutes of this video to start opening my mind and eyes to the deception and at that point in the video I started Instantly seeing through the illusion even before he got to explaining it at all. Goes to show that once exposed to these tricks your mind has the capability of almost instantly learning the patterns, at least that was my experience. I wonder if anyone had the same situation happen to them too.
I turned your comment upside down and I now see an eskimo in a snow storm.
That’s Incredible!
awesome work, great video. People should think twice about mainstream news media telling them what is the truth.
Great fun! Well done!
Can we now see the series?
Man the way he switched those tablecloths to a smaller one for that smaller table was some incredible sleight of hand.
This is so enthralling
The mysterious background music is the icing on the cake
The Cake image was mind-blowing!
I used to love this show as a kid!
Best recommendation TH-cam has done so far while I’m blown 😂
2:50 so I guess this is what they mean when they say “you’re not a clown, you’re the entire circus”
I loved watching this show as a kid
Dude I seriously need to get high and binge watch this show.
I love this Show Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction
This video was very relaxing
