Huh. I never really thought of it this way. Today I learned.

Good video! If anyone is having trouble visualizing it, someone talks about the same thing with 3D printed models here:
Because we have 2 eyes side by side, not top of each other? Idk just guessing.
Edit: watched the video and realized I'm just dumb
I had to think about this way longer than I’d like to admit. I didn’t watch the video.
Well that's neat. Not everyday you get to learn you're a little bit dumb lol
Really enjoyed the video!
Edit: on second thought maybe it happens more often than I'd care to admit 😅
They don't flip it horizontally, they flip it on the z axis.
This might save you a click: The mirror doesn't flip anything. Your image in the mirror faces back at you, and to match that image, you need to turn around 180 degrees. Since there's gravity, and we're standing on the ground, we do that by turning left or right, making it seem like the mirror had flipped the image horizontally. But if we were in space, we could instead turn around by doing half a somersault, making it seem like the mirror had flipped the image vertically. What makes things a bit confusing is that the left and right sides of a human are mirror images of each other, so a horizontal flip seems like it makes less difference than a vertical flip.

This video is silly, mirrors flip front and back. You can definitely arrange a word and a mirror so you see one flipped and one not.
