For generations, climbers have been terrified by a giant, glowing figure appearing in the mountain mist. Known as the Brocken Spectre, this optical illusion turns a hiker’s shadow into a colossal phantom surrounded by a rainbow-like halo called a glory. In this video, we explore the physics of light diffraction and 3D perspective that create this stunning phenomenon. We also capture the quiet, dampened acoustic environment of high-altitude fog.
