Brain Teaser Alert! Photo Of Embracing Couple Is Going Viral For The Funniest Reason

The human brain is a pretty powerful object. With our brains, we're able to comprehend a vast quantity of topics, calculate the distance from the Earth to the moon, invent incredible machines that can fly in the sky, and all while we're watching a video of a puppy barking at a pumpkin.

But as incredible as our brains are, sometimes our eyes will look at something that our brains just won't be able to figure out. These optical illusions are always fun to try to figure out on your own without any help, but the image below absolutely stumped just about everyone on the internet.

Someone snapped a photo of a young couple hugging each other on the beach. And while the image would be pretty cute, it's their legs that are driving everyone up the wall. Look closely at their legs and you'll see it: something just doesn't look right in the photo.

It looks like the girl's legs somehow morph into the body of the man, and the man's legs switch around to face the wrong way. Look closely and see if you can figure out what's going on below. The answer is at the very bottom, and you might just be a little bit surprised!

And please SHARE this fun optical illusion if you want to stump your friends, too!

And some illusions give us trouble understanding how many of something (or someone) we're even looking at. For example, this photo, guess how many girls there are in it.

It seems that he's simply wearing a multi-colored pair of swimming trunks. The camera must have accidentally been at the perfect angle to make it appear as if the smaller woman's legs were morphing into the man's. Either way, this is a pretty crazy illusion, even if it were just an accident. It still hurts my brain!
