Optical illusion puzzles are quite popular because they challenge our observation skills, give our brain a little workout as well as offer a perfect leisure activity. At first glance, an image looks normal. 

But as you start giving it attention, small details start to pop out and you see all the discrepancies. These puzzles aren’t about tricking intelligence but about attention. 

They train the eyes to notice what the brain usually ignores.

The Cooper Vision mentions: “They say “seeing is believing.” It is true that we tend to believe what our eyes tell us, but in the case of optical illusions, what our eyes tell us is not always the truth. Sight is a complex process that involves our eyes sending raw information for our brain to interpret. This visual system takes many short cuts and makes edits to images before we’re even made aware of them. Optical illusions take advantage of these short cuts and uses them to fool the brain.”

Many people enjoy these illusion puzzles as a short mental break. They don’t require special knowledge or complex thinking. 

All you need is some patience and a willingness to observe. That’s why these puzzles work for all ages.

The puzzle below shows a cheerful school bus scene. Children are enjoying the ride and everything looks quite simple. But one object is not meant for this scene. A hanger has been hidden somewhere in the picture and it is blended into the scene so naturally that most viewers overlook it on the first try.

Your challenge is to find the hidden hanger in this scene in 17 seconds.

Were you able to spot the hanger? Don’t rush your eyes across the image, instead you can follow these tips:

  • Scan slowly from one corner to the other

  • Compare shapes that look slightly out of place

  • Check objects that don’t match a school setting

The hanger is not floating in plain sight. It is hidden in such a way that it looks like a part of the environment, which is why the puzzle works.

The time limit is not here to pressure you but instead it is to draw your complete attention to this puzzle so that you don’t get distracted. 

Hurry up! There are only a few seconds left on the clock and you have to find the hanger. 

The time limit is over in 5 seconds! 

Uh! Oh! The time limit has come to an end.

Did you find the hidden hanger? If you didn’t find it immediately, that’s normal. Optical illusions reward persistence. 

Many people spot the object only after stepping back and looking again with fresh eyes.

A useful trick is to ignore the main action and study the background. Hidden objects often sit where attention is weakest.
