Optical Illusion: Spot The Number 8 In This Image Within 8 Seconds

Optical illusions are known for their ability to trick the eyes and often surface online. These images, including patterns, sketches, colourful displays, or creatively crafted text, often evoke fascination amongst users. Among them, a particularly interesting video is recently making rounds on the internet.

An Instagram account named Brain Teaser Hub has shared a clip where there are a lot of typed numbers 9 in a dot-shaped size. The users are required to search for a concealed number 8 amongst these dots in 8 seconds. So, the users, should brace themselves up and leave no stone unturned to discover the hidden image in this illusion.

Initially, the users would find it an extremely difficult task, as they will have to channelise all their observational powers on the image. It is because the numbers are extremely small and it is an uphill task to search for an equally small 8 among them. Few of the users, with a hawk’s eye and brilliant observational powers, would have decoded the hidden number by now within the stipulated time. For those, who couldn’t, we have a hint for them. If they look carefully through all the letters, the number 8 is written in a different font. This hint can make the task quite easier for the users who were not able to do it.

If the people are still unable to solve the illusion, it’s time to reveal the solution. The users should count the 8th line from the bottom of the brain teaser. In the 8th line, they should start searching from the right side, and will finally find the puzzle’s solution.

It seems like many of the users were able to solve the puzzle quite easily. Many of the comments indicate that people were able to decode the puzzle in 0.1 to 2 seconds. One of the users also suggested a solution to resolve the brain teaser. The user wrote,” You just need to unfocus your view, an ability that not all people have. U just find it instantly.”

Optical illusions teach us how our eyes and brains work together to see. You live in a three-dimensional world, so your brain gets clues about depth, shading, lighting, and position to help you interpret what you see.
