This is one of those stupid questions I thought up in high school to annoy people. I’m pretty sure I asked my physics teacher this. His name was Mr. Waxman and I think I had convinced him that I was crazy. I decided to annoy Google’s AI by asking it this question, and this is the reply I received:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If your head were the Sun,\u00a0you generally would\u00a0not be able to see shadows<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Because shadows are formed when an object blocks light from a source, they always appear on the opposite side<\/strong> of that object from the light source. If you were the primary source of light, every object you looked at would be illuminated from your exact perspective, meaning any shadow it cast would be hidden directly behind it from your point of view. <\/p>\n\n\n\n However, there are a few scientific “loopholes” where you might still see them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can test this yourself: hold a phone flashlight directly between your eyes in a dark room. You will notice that almost all shadows on the objects you point it at seem to disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, I guess that’s an answer I can be satisfied with. I’m glad I wasted Google’s time with my stupid question.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This is one of those stupid questions I thought up in high school to annoy people.
