Try And Find Out How Many Girls Are In This Confusing Picture

The human brain is truly remarkable. It is capable of orchestrating multiple activities inside the human body at the same time. It can process information, give feedback and store them inside for further use. It orders glands to secrete hormones that make the body work all the while allowing us to form coherent speech and look put together on the outside.Show more

But sometimes the brain can cause quite the commotion. Usually when a new information is introduced, the brain tries to gather all sort of relevant past data about it and decide whether it is something it previously encountered or it’s a completely new thing. If it fits past parameters, the brain will store it with other data alike, if it’s new, it will open up another drawer for the processed information. Sometimes during this data distribution, the human mind can be fooled into thinking that a new information is an old information based on the similarities. This makes it store this new occurence in a wrong file and we are left tricked by an illusion.

Can you guess how many girls are in the picture? What is your mind telling you? The correct answer would be two, and here’s why. The two girls are sat in between two mirrors, facing them. The optical illusion shows an endless amount of girls inside one room, but in reality there are only two and everyone else is just a mirror image reflected on the opposite mirror. The reason why our brain isn’t getting this right away and has to back away for a second to think it through is the angle at which they are sitting, showing their faces and the backs of their heads. This gives the appearance that there are four different girls. Did you guess it right?
