One of the best "real time" demonstrations of this Escher phenomenon was in the 1986 film The Name of the Rose, a Medieval mystery starring the great actor Sean Connery. In it he and his protege discover a hidden library in an old monastery that can be reached only by climbing stairs that cannot possibly exist since, at one point, they are facing each other on stairs on opposite sides of the tower--and they are each upside down to the other. Once they are in the library, they go down stairs from one room to another only to eventually end up in the original room! Quite a fascinating section of film that has never (to my knowledge) been duplicated since. If you've never seen the film, it is well worth finding and watching. The key is whether you can solve the mystery before they do!

I would love for someone to make a real-life staircase like this. I've climbed 30 flights of stairs one time, and felt just like this. None of the floors have the number from the stairwell, so it felt like it gone on for infinity. The real question is, would a person know they were on an infinite staircase? Or the brains eventually tell them, something isn't right here? Much like how people get lost and end up doubling back where they started.

If you had two really long corridors that sloped down so gently you didn't notice, you could have a flight of stairs going up on either end. They might need to be like 300 metres long though for a single 3 metre rise.

If you try you could do this with a Rubik's cube even 4*4 ones but it has 4 different staircases that are connected and always go up or down which is so cool All of the things you have to do is to grab one of the faces and move each column slightly up and turn to the right face and do it again (it will show better on 4*4 ones) after you finished look at the top face it's a continues loop.

90 degrees right angle is actually a feature of Euclidean flat geometry, a Line drawn on a sphere is actually a curve and the 90 degrees you measured is actually between the tangents to these curves, not the actual curves. There is a 3D angle measurement called the Steradian
