Kaptain K:

I too have the "power" to momentarily freeze the rotation of certain objects (ie: fan blades) with the flick of an eye. So I'm almost ready to accept your explanation. The problem remains that those eye flicks whether purposeful or through car bumps, etc. would only produce one freeze frame, so to speak. And to get a rotating object to appear to reverse itself would require a whole long series of precisely timed eyeball-produced freeze frames. I read somewhere (above?) one interesting solution that builds on your idea and that is that some people can cause their eyeballs to vibrate (purposely or unconsciously I presume). The interference between the two frequencies could be responsible for the phenomenon.

But even after all the above, until I see & study the effect again, I have to admit to some creeping skepticism - whether I have ever seen it happen without any of the usual explanations.
