Optical illusion that 'only 1% can solve' leaves people baffled – Express

A mind-bending optical illusion has left many baffled, with only a claimed one percent of people able to crack it. Shared on TikTok by user Olly Hindle, the puzzle has not only stumped users but also made them question their eyesight.
At first glance, the image appears to show an older man with a moustache and beard looking off to the left, wearing a hat and sporting an unusual tuft of hair.
However, a hidden image of an animal is said to be lurking within the picture, requiring a closer look to spot.
The caption claims: “Vision test. Only one per cent of the population is able to find the animal in the image in less than two minutes.”
Some users claim to have seen a puppy eating a bone, with one commenting: “I see a dog holding a bone.” Another user agreed, saying: “It’s definitely a dog with a bone in front.”

For those struggling to see the hidden image, try flipping it upside down and focusing on the ‘man’s beard’, now in reverse. This should reveal the dog’s face in his beard, with the man’s nose transforming into the bone.

“Many people believe our brains age as we do, growing less powerful, less capable, and less competent over time. What most don’t realise, however, is that you have the ability to manipulate your brain the way a sculptor moulds clay.
“The brain is susceptible to all we expose it to—people, music, work—even the physical environments we traverse on a day-to-day basis. Everything we partake in has the potential to subtly shift the wiring of our brain.”
