I think the effect is caused because if you look you see the context and in your head segment what is going on into different parts for your brains to analyze.
The gif is quite fast so i actually think its more that paying attention makes you take in mode detail. Make it make overal seem slowerx
When you look away you lose detail to know what part is on screen. You just see it flash/cycle between them.
The harder you start analysing it, like the autist that i am, the more the brain seems to catch up and is able to measure a more subjective time.
It’s because there are two shots in the sequence, but one of the shots (the one of Timmy) has an abrupt slide midway that seems continuous while looking at it but seems like discrete shots when in your periphery.
Looking away makes it feel like you went from “dot-dash” to “dot-dot-dot” so the whole thing suddenly seems to speed up.

I agree with this. When I looked away, it felt like it had more cuts so I had to do a double take.
