We all love optical illusions to challenge our brains and test our powers of observation, optical illusions are quickly gaining popularity on social media. But sometimes, social media users aren’t fascinated by optical tricks or puzzles. Things can get really interesting if you time a photo taken from an unusual angle at the right moment. This time, a new and realistic optical illusion has confused online users. With many people unable to distinguish the fourth person, a snapshot of a group of friends clinking their bottles of wine before the drinks went viral. A man with the Instagram account @JenMsft uploaded the photo to Twitter. Four bottles are clearly visible, however, only three arms appear to be holding the bottles. Check out the viral image here:Having trouble locating the fourth individual? You’re not alone, so don’t worry. The bottle holder’s jacket expertly hides the rocky path and backdrop where the group is standing, creating the illusion that there is no fourth arm. Now, let’s take a closer look. You will recognize the blue glove of the 4th person. The image was first posted in a discussion on Reddit, which then led to a series of discussions. How long did it take you to recognize the 4th person’s hand? If you spot it quickly, it means you have excellent observation skills. Having trouble figuring out that man doesn’t mean you’re any less intelligent. Keep experimenting and practicing with more optical illusions to help your brain become sharper.
