A while back I was on a bus at dusk, and was observing some wind power generators a kilometre or so away. They were mainly silhouettes against the sky, and as I was watching one I noticed that while I had thought it was turning counterclockwise, it suddenly appeared to change direction as I was driving by. I'd just misinterpreted the 3d form of the windmill, same phenomenon here. No trickery with animation required.

It just goes clockwise for me. I cant change its direction, however hard I try. I can't even imagine HOW it could go in the opposite direction.

Incredible !
it turns anti-clockwise for me ... but after focusing a bit, it turn clockwise.

At First, I thought it was a cheat animation with both directions
