Nearly everyone gets it wrong on their first try: How many Q’s are hidden in this picture?

These last few years, brain teasers and optical illusions have become incredibly popular online. It seems we humans just love challenging our senses and abilities. We all want to figure out what we’re capable of – and then go just a little bit further to grow as a person.

Not only that, it’s also fun and exciting to find new ways of engaging in friendly competition with the people around you!

We’ve experienced a lot of fascinatingly tricky puzzles and illusions throughout the years. Each one has been different, but they do have one thing in common – they’re all possible to figure out, as long as you put your mind to it and focus for a while.

The puzzle below is the latest variation on this theme. It’s quite simple in design, but most people get the answer wrong on their first try. The challenge is to find the letters that stand out from the rest.

Now, I have to admit that I wasn’t perceptive enough to guess the right answer right away. But if you really focus and tune out all distractions, then I definitely think you can do it.

However, what makes it extra hard is that you only have 10 seconds to decide on an answer.
