A baffling optical illusion has emerged on social media, once again sparking widespread confusion. This latest mystery has left internet users scratching their heads, as they attempt to figure out where a missing person is hiding in an old photo of four people sharing a whiskey shot.
Originally posted on the Reddit thread r/confusing_perspective, the image shows four hands, each gripping a small whiskey bottle. But here’s the catch—despite what seems to be an obvious count of four hands, most viewers can only spot three individuals.
The caption, posted by the Reddit user, reads: “I swear there’s four of us.” So, where’s the fourth person?
This isn’t the first time a perplexing illusion has sent the internet into overdrive. From viral images of animals seemingly defying physics to mind-bending visual tricks, the web is full of optical illusions that challenge the way we see the world. Last year, a viral video of a golden retriever “sitting” at the bottom of a pool left viewers stunned, while entire threads on Reddit and X (formerly Twitter) are dedicated to uncovering these baffling perspectives.
