Only a true brain whizz can decipher word bare hidden in sea of bears in 10 seconds – The Mirror
A new brain teaser challenges you to find the word ‘bare’ hidden in a sea of ‘bears’ – and you only have 10 seconds to do it if you want to call yourself a genius
If you want to test your brain power with a tricky puzzle, then brain teasers are a great way of doing so, as they are known to work wonders for our cognitive function by improving the brain's ability to perceive and interpret visual information.
And while you might struggle with complex brain teasers at first, the more you practice, the faster you'll be able to work them out – and before long, you'll be cracking tough puzzles in seconds.
This new brain teaser is guaranteed to make you scratch your head, as you need to find one word that's different from all the others, and the sea of letters can make even the sharpest of minds start spinning.
Check out the picture below and see if you can crack it.
To make things a little bit easier, we can tell you that you're looking for the word "bare" among the repeated "bear"s in the picture. The words certainly sound the same when said out loud, but the difference in spelling should help you find it.
You can take as long as you want to try and find the answer, but if you manage to do it in under 10 seconds, then Freshers Live claims you might just have a genius-level IQ.
Have you found it yet?
If you need a hint, don't worry, we're here to help. The word you're looking for is toward the left-hand side of the picture, so you can ignore everything on the right. We can also tell you that it's within the first four columns – but we're not going to help you any more than that!
Got it now? We're about to show you the answer, so don't scroll down if you haven't figured it out.
