Watch as 12 becomes 13

Ok, this animated GIF is hard to explain. I’ve been staring at it for a while now and I just can’t understand how it’s fooling me. Basically, what happens is the image magically changes from 12 people to 13 people after one animation switch.
Can anybody explain to me just what is going on?
