New internet brain teaser has social media users stumped
- 6 years ago
Puzzles might be taking the internet by storm - but picking the panda out of a page of elephants has become old news. \r
Now, brain teaser boffs are being challenged by Playbuzz to see if they can spot whats wrong in this sentence and colourful list of numbers below - in fewer than five seconds. \r
Those sharp enough to single out the mistake are sharing the puzzle online. But, as its creators say, its harder than it looks\r
\r
Reading both text and numbers at a quick pace can result in skipping bits out - which many people who failed to spot the mistake have fallen foul of here.\r
\r
The numbers, which are in colour, attr the eye and the reader may automatically find themselves checking those for a mistake. \r
In f, the error is hidden in the text informing you that there is a mistake to spot\r
\r
Those with a keen eye for detail, and prised in the art of speed-reading, will have noticed that the word the is written twice. \r
The puzzle is a slight detour from the current trend of Wheres Wally-style quizzes. \r
On Wednesday, popular high street bakers Greggs have had Brits scratching their heads after posting a pasty puzzle online. \r
The picture shows a lone cheese and onion bake in this pile of steak slices - but only true Greggs fans knew what sets the two apart.\r
For those not familiar with the bakers offerings, picking out the pasty proved difficult\r
\r
The puzzle is the latest in the trend of brain-teasers sweeping the web in recent months - with Wheres Wally-style puzzles challenging people to spot animals amongst throngs of creates becoming all the craze. \r
The Greggs challenge could pave the way for a new trend of food challenges, after the picture caused a storm online yesterday.\r
The eagle-eyed spotted that the difference lies in the patterns of the pasties - with the cheese and onion bake boasting a slightly different scoring.\r
\r
Earlier this week, a puzzle saw an artist hide a pandas face among a herd of elephants - and its proving surprisingly tricky to spot.\r
The illustration sees dozens of elephants heads in shades of brown, yellow, grey and white. However the black ink used to outline their eyes and ears mean that the monochrome panda (second from right, seventh row from the bottom) is all but camouflaged. \r
It was created by Matthew Merrill from Fresno, California, who is fast becoming known for his head-scratching puzzles.\r
\r
His last creation that swept the internet saw a panda hidden among hundreds of dogs, with a few wearing bows and others with long shaggy hair, making them even more difficult to differentiate between. \r
Among the dogs is a cheeky-looking panda. But the black and white creature shares several similarities with its fellow hounds including jaunty ears and a black nose.\r
With every breed represented - and a few mutts as well - its quite a challenge to spot the bear hiding amid the giant pack of dogs. \r
But if you look closely youll see it sandwiched to the middle of the right-hand side of the drawing.\r
\r
The animal is far less easy to spot than the corgis pictured with giant ears, or the white hound with its hair in a pink bow.\r
Once youve spotted the bear, you can then see how long it takes you to find the various breeds featured. \r
Theres a Hungarian Puli - the dreadlocked pooch owned by Mark Zuckerberg - as well as a Labrador, husky, shar pei, mastiff, doberman, a schnauzer, spaniel, pointer, great Dane, chihuahua and poodle\r
\r
But the teaser proved a little too easy for the webs taste, with some commenters saying it took them a mere two seconds to find the panda.\r
One wrote: In an instant, to describe the length of time it took her to find the animal.\r
\r
Meanwhile, someone with a sense of humour has taken inspiration from the trend to create an image with lots of extra Queens heads. \r
The prical joker shared the hilarious image on his account with the message, Happy 90th birthday Queen Liz! before asking his followers Can you spot all 90 Queens heads?\r
The image which has been viewed over 44,000 times sees the monarch hidden in the furniture, carpet and wallpaper of the palace.\r
\r
Each of the royals faces has been replaced with that of Her Majesty and in a rather creepy twist her face even appears on various body parts including her own knees and Charles finger nails.\r
Look closely at buttons on the royals clothing, the Queens jewellery and the moulding on the walls to spy other faces.
