People do puzzles for a wide variety of reasons some people do them to pass the time and other people do them to keep their minds sharp or at least entertained.
There are also many different types of puzzles to choose from. Everything from jigsaw puzzles to sudoku, word findings, crossword puzzles, and the list goes on. Each of them provides benefits if you enjoy doing them.
One of the things that you may enjoy doing is using an optical illusion to test your ability to see beyond what you see. When you see an optical illusion, it is designed for the purpose of making you feel as if you are seeing something you aren’t seeing.
That is what we have for you in this delightful picture below. It’s a brainteaser that has a number of different dolphins swimming across the screen. When you look at it, how many dolphins do you see?
Most people will answer the question as quickly as possible and they don’t take enough time to really dig in and find the answer. How many dolphins do you count in this picture?
