Stunning! The only way I could stop the spinning sensation was to focus on the ground-level exit, which clearly disgorged moving people without knee-capping them. I am dizzy simply recalling the image. My brain cannot let go of it!

Thanks for the hint to stop it. Looking at the exit did stop the bottom layer for me, but out of the corner/top of my eye, the rest kept moving!
Jim R – 🙂
Isabel – thanks!! I think???
John – 🙂 IKR?
Brilliant!! Good way to gaslight first-timers on seeing it. Moving? What do you mean?
Barbara – Hahaha. Yes, that would drive someone crazy.
