It's not really working for me either. It did go a bit paler though after a few seconds.
I remember we had a video recorder with a red light on it that if I stared at a certain part of the video recorder the red light would magically vanish.
We then did about this exact thing in science at school, that we have an area of our.... eyes or brain or something, that can block out certain images at certain angles. Or something.

It looks like he's got a snooker-player shaped guitar, and is letting it hang on the strap while he acknowledges applause.

Probably should've been in the 'up the b*m' thread on reflection.

I have a bowl shaped like that. I'm going to give it a try, tomorrow.

I look forward to hearing about the results.
The first time I knowingly saw that effect was on a Pirates of the Caribbean knock off ride at Drayton Manor theme park in the early 90s, with some comedy ghosts at the end of the ride.

I wonder if they're still there.
Well, looks like they were still there 13 years ago. I think that's them from 6:08. The effect isn't quite so noticeable on this video.
That really was as loud as it sounds.

Gosh, that's clever.
I thought it was just another nAItmare picture till I saw the message.

Half close your eyes and look at it again.
