Have you ever experienced a moment where your eyes seemed to be playing tricks on you? A moment where you looked at something, but your brain struggled to make sense of it? You’re not alone in this experience.
Let’s put your perception to the test. Take a close look at the image below. When shown this picture, most people are asked what they see, and surprisingly, eight out of ten people get it wrong.
This image was shared on social media, and many people failed this simple insight test. They were unsure of what they were looking at, and it turned out they were seeing something that wasn’t even there.
Most people thought they were looking at Legos, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. The image was actually captured by a helicopter pilot in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China.
In reality, the image shows a large number of buses that are no longer in service, stored in a single location. This created a fascinating sight that only a few people were able to guess accurately when the image went viral online.
So, how did you do? Take a moment to reflect on this simple insight test and marvel at the tricks our eyes can play on us.
