In 2015, a visual-illusion dress caught people's fancy. Rarely had an outfit's colour inspired as much debate as the striped selection, which was 'obviously' blue and black for some, and 'clearly' white and gold for others. Why are we bringing this up five years later? Because we found ourselves in a similar predicament when congratulating Cyrus Broacha on his dramatic physical transformation that has now become the talk of the town. "But there hasn't been one," he responds. Puzzled, we give it a second shot. 'You look significantly leaner in the image you shared online,' we try. "I have looked like that for years. I don't know what people are talking about. Maybe it has been photo-shopped. I have been training for years, and this is how I look." Hmmm...

Broacha has been for most '90s kids, a significantly influential figure. He is remembered as the ultimate prankster, with his big build being a conspicuous part of his ebullient personality. Accustomed as we are to asking questions, we try again. 'Perhaps people have seen you look bigger than you currently are, which is why there is a perception that you have lost weight," we egg him on. Turns out, our attempt leaves him as confounded as his responses do us. "I don't know. I'm not sure how to answer that." Hmmm....
