You have 20/20 vision if you can spot the hidden snake in under 15 seconds
A HIDDEN serpent has people puzzled as they try to solve the outdoorsy brainteaser. Finding the snake in under 15 seconds may mean having better vision than most. An adventurous Redditor spotted a snake while braving the outdoors. They shared a picture of the animal on the social media platform. The picture contained rocks and a stream, with a critter tucked away. They expressed being concerned about the serpent hidden in plain sight. The Redditor even asked fellow users if the snake could have killed them.
Other Redditors were able to locate the snake, assuring the original poster that they weren’t in danger. “Yup water snake, good for a heart attack when it goes over your shoes while fishing,” one wrote. “Yes that has happened on numerous occasions fishing along the bank when the lake level is drastically down.” Another Redditor added, “Cute little water snake. Loves to eat fish and amphibians. Not a venomous one.” If you’re still having trouble spotting the serpent, check out the middle of the right side of the photo. The snake is in the water and between the rocks.
If you’re on the hunt for more puzzles, a deer hiding in plain sight is another mind-bending test. Spotting the prey in under 17 seconds could mean you have a sharp eye. Redditor Billfredgilford posted the puzzle on the social media platform. Everyone can see the dumpster and surrounding trees. Upon closer inspection, a deer is poking its head from behind the partition. “I was zoomed in and scrolling side to side and screamed when the deer landed right in the middle of my screen,” one Redditor said of the find. If you’re still having trouble locating the deer, shift your eyes towards the center of the picture.
Researchers have developed many tests to show how various brain regions react to brainteasers and optical illusions. They are not only entertaining but also shed light on how our brains interpret visual data. By giving your brain a little workout regularly, you enhance your ability to focus and observe details. Studies have shown people who regularly challenge themselves with optical illusions and puzzles see big improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration, and attention. Improved concentration and attention span can help prevent cognitive decline in old age. Optical illusions can improve eyesight by allowing you to see small print.
