Only people with 'sniper-like vision' can spot deer in forest within 30 seconds – The Mirror US
Feeling a little bored this weekend? We have a fun challenge for you to get stuck into.
We all understand the significance of maintaining physical health, but did you realize that your brain also needs a workout? Engaging your mind with brainteasers and other puzzles is crucial for healthy brain development, as they enhance the connections between your brain cells and help ward off conditions like dementia.
There's a plethora of puzzles available out there, ranging from challenging logic problems to popular games like crosswords and sudokus. Each one exercises different areas of your brain, and this specific viral puzzle aims to see if your vision is good as a sniper's would be.
The challenge in question asks you to spot two deer that are hidden in the forest – and you only have 30 seconds to complete it. It sounds like an easy ask, but there are a couple of things that make it tricky. As well as the brown deer blending with the surroundings, there are plenty of details that can distract your eyes.
So can you complete the test in half a minute? Set a timer and see how you get on. TOP TIP: Click on the Reddit post above to get a closer look. You may also want to zoom in on your laptop or phone.
In response, people confessed they'd found the post to be very tricky. One commenter admitted: "Found very difficult with a static image… movement (even the slightest) is the key." And another said: "I had a hard time finding them."
If you're having an equally tough time, don't panic. We'd recommend scanning your eyes over the image from left to right. Focus on taking in smaller sections, as this tends to be more manageable than tackling the whole photo at once.
Don't be too slow, though. There's a 30 second limit you need to stick to! For an extra bit of help, try looking towards the centre of the image.
