Everyone can see at least three faces – but you need 20/20 vision to count how many there REALLY are

YOU might have a perfect 20/20 vision if you could spot more than three faces in this mind-bending optical illusion.

Only people with keen observational skills and a high IQ can solve this difficult brainteaser in just 12 seconds.

Try to spot all the hidden faces in this picture

Grab a timer, set it to 12 seconds and test your puzzle-solving skills.

It may seem like an ordinary image, but this is no easy feat – and it takes the average person over a minute to solve it.

At first glance, you might just see three faces in the picture.

But if notice well, you should be able to find all the hidden faces in the challenge.

Brainteasers are purposefully designed to trick our vision and can be used as simple determiners of intelligence.

Studies have shown, people who regularly challenge themselves with optical illusions and puzzles see big improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration and attention.

Psychologists at The University of Glasgow found that staring at an optical illusion can improve eyesight by allowing you to see small print.

And according to ZenBuisness: “These visual puzzles can give you a good mental workout that can, in turn, help you think more efficiently and solve problems more easily.”

However, before you start with this one, try and see if you can find the cheeky ghost trying to blend in within this party scene in a super quick time.

If you can then you have the watchful eyes of a clever spirit but beware they are very good at keeping secrets.

You’ll be a genius if you can find the zebra hiding amongst the giraffes in this image.

Or try and find the sausage that definitely shouldn’t be in with the fruit and vegetables.

Coming back to the challenge, were you able to find the hidden faces?

If you didn’t see it, look again carefully.

Still no luck?
