15+ Tricky Illusions That Can Take You More Time to Crack Than You Ever Expected

A cat that suddenly turned into a cloud-like creature, an evil face left on the sand as a footprint or a dragonfly that has a smiling face. All of these are just a few examples of accidental illusions that people captured on the go, and they could even make David Copperfield a bit jealous.

Here at Bright Side, we love to rack our brains sometimes, especially when we see some things that make us question our own eyesight. We have collected 18 examples of optical illusions that may make you want to do a double-take too.

1. “This dragonfly looks like it has a smiling face.”

2. “The way this recliner is made of bricks makes it look like it’s comfy to sit on.”

3. “Buried a friend knee-deep in sand. When he stepped out, the sand cracked, and made this.”

4. “This eggplant looks like an evil tomato.”
