Everyone can see the dice – but only one in 11 people can spot the odd one out in just 12 seconds
YOU could have a high IQ if you can spot the odd one out in under 12 seconds.
Only one in 11 people can figure out this tricky optical illusion in time.
Players have less than 12 seconds to spot the odd one out[/caption]Everyone can see the rows of dice in this image but people have been tasked to find one that is different.
The dice in this image are different bright colours like pink, blue, orange, green, and yellow.
These clashing tones and black dots make it difficult to quickly differentiate between each one.
One of these dice however is different as it has more than six dots.
The gaming experts at MrQ, who created this tricky illusion, revealed half of the players who attempted this gave up before finding the solution.
Here is a clue if you are struggling to find it.
Focus on the bottom left corner of the picture and you might spot the odd dice.
If you were not able to solve the brain teaser in time do not worry as the answer is down below.
Optical illusions are a great way to test your mind and senses.
They can force people to look past clear and obvious images.
This process can help to stimulate several parts of the brain at the same time.
Another benefit is that they are fun and can be enjoyed by friends and family members tackling these tasks together.
Why not try another difficult optical illusion to keep testing your brain?
Everyone can see the snow but can you find the polar bear in less than 7 seconds?
Can you spot the polar bear?[/caption]This wintery scene may be pretty but it will leave you scratching your head.
Players will easily be able to spot trees, water, and a beautiful snow-covered landscape.
The difficult task is finding the polar bear that has camouflaged perfectly into its surroundings.
Here is a hint for people running out of time.
How can optical illusions and brainteasers help me?
Engaging in activities like solving optical illusions and brainteasers can have many cognitive benefits as it can stimulate various brain regions.
Some benefits include:
- Cognitive stimulation: Engaging in these activities challenges the brain, promoting mental agility and flexibility.
- Problem-solving skills: Regular practice enhances analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities.
- Memory improvement: These challenges often require memory recall and can contribute to better memory function.
- Creativity: They encourage thinking outside the box, fostering creativity and innovative thought processes.
- Focus and attention: Working on optical illusions and brainteasers requires concentration, contributing to improved focus.
- Stress relief: The enjoyable nature of these puzzles can act as a form of relaxation and stress relief.
Focus on the snow-covered rock on the left of the scene.
The answer to this puzzling task is also down below.
Why not try a third mind-boggling illusion to really test your senses?
You could have 20/20 vision if you find the boomerang in under seven seconds.
There is a hidden boomerang in this image[/caption]There are 13 bugs in this image enjoying an art class.
Some are painting while others are talking and reading.
You must look past this to rapidly find a boomerang in this monochrome image.
If you run out of time do not worry as the answer is down below.
Were you able to spot the dice with eight dots[/caption] The polar bear has been circled above[/caption] Were you able to solve this difficult illusion in time?[/caption]Треба їсти кожен день: названо продукти, що захищають від раку

Boxing legend Carl Froch makes bizarre claim Neil Armstrong’s moon landing was HOAX and gravity ‘has never been proven’
EX-BOXER Carl Froch has stunningly claimed the moon landing was a HOAX in a bizarre conspiracy theory-filled interview.
Conspiracy theorists have long debated the legitimacy of NASA‘s Apollo 11 mission, in which Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first men to set foot on the moon in 1969.
Man landed on the moon in 1969 thanks to the Apollo 11 mission[/caption] And former champion Carl Froch has revealed he’s among the moon landing doubters[/caption]And outspoken former WBC super-middleweight champ Froch is among the doubters, telling the Action Network: “It’s very interesting that we haven’t been to the moon since and we can’t get there.
“Neil Armstrong was asked by somebody to place his hand on the Holy Bible and Neil Armstrong is a deeply religious man.
“He was asked to place his hand on the Bible and to swear on the Holy Bible that he went and stepped foot on the moon.
“He wouldn’t do it.
“And the guy said I will give you $5,000 in cash to a charity of your choice to place your hand on the Bible and tell us that you walked on the moon, and he wouldn’t do it.
“Now, for $5,000 to your charity… you would just do it.
“He’s religious, place your hand on the Bible, swear to God, and say you’ve been to the moon.
“Neil Armstrong wouldn’t do it and you can find the video online.”

Carl Froch has wrongly claimed there have been no additional moon landings[/caption]Froch’s adamance that the historic event was a hoax is based on his belief there haven’t been any other missions to the moon – despite there being a further SIX trips to Earth’s sole satellite.
He continued: “That’s one thing, not to mention the fact we haven’t been since.
“The equipment they used to get up there was as powerful as a Zedec Spectrum to get up there, which probably wasn’t that powerful.
“It was a computer when I was a kid. We can’t get there now, and I think everything we’ve been told about the moon landing (is made up).
“Buzz Aldrin told a little girl that we’ve not been to the moon, and she said, ‘If we have been to the moon, why haven’t we been back?’
“Buzz then said, ‘That’s not a question for a little girl (to ask). We didn’t go there because we can’t get there.’
“Then people said Buzz was losing the plot but maybe he was losing the plot because he couldn’t live with a f***ing lie.
“When you look at all of the evidence, all the footage, and the fact that they lost all of the telemetric data that tells you that they went to the moon then I would say that we did not go to the moon.
“Man did not walk on the moon, that was a big f***ing lie.
“NASA are funded by $63m per day and they tell us a lot of stories and a lot of things about black holes and distant galaxies.
“Every picture we’ve seen of Planet Earth is a CGI image.
“So, when I can see an image of the world in its entirety, I’ll start believing in Heliocentrism – Helio being the sun, centric being in the middle. I used to believe in the geocentric model.”
Despite the overwhelming evidence, Carl Froch is convinced the moon landing was fake[/caption]Evolution doubts
The universally accepted theory of evolution is something ‘The Cobra’ also has his doubts about, despite a litany of evidence proving Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace’s hypothesis to be true.
“Evolution is a theory; the Big Bang is a theory,” he defiantly said. And the heliocentric model has never been proven.
“There are three big things there and all three of them take you away from God.
“So, if you read the Bible, the Book of Genesis, and believe in God then you can’t believe in the Big Bang because that’s a scientific theory that we came from a big explosion.
“But if you believe in God, then you believe that God made the Earth and created the world.
“If you believe in evolution, then you can’t believe in God or that God made Adam and Eve.”
Carl Froch also isn’t a believer in the theory of evolution[/caption]Gravity gripe
Froch also questions the legitimacy of Sir Isaac Newton’s theory of gravity, despite it being proven trillions of times over the last 387 years.
He said: “It’s difficult to believe the mainstream narrative which is the spinning globe theory. I’m very spiritual.
“I’m not saying the Earth is flat, but I don’t believe we live on a spinning ball covered in water because if I get a ball and spin it around covered in water then all of the water flies off it.
“How does water stick to Earth?
“They say it’s gravity and holds everything to the Earth, so gravity has to be real but it’s a theory and has never been proven.”
“I don’t believe a lot of the stuff I’m told about the heliocentric model, the sun being in the middle and we orbit around the sun.
“The Big Bang theory, which is a theory, and also the theory of evolution that we came from apes.”
Carl Froch is also a doubter of Sir Isaac Newton’s theory of gravity[/caption]Nintendo Switch fans discover incredible hidden perk which includes over 270 popular games – including Mario and Zelda

‘Why is Eddie Hearn apologising?’ asks boxing superstar as Katie Taylor promoter regrets post-fight antics
EDDIE Hearn surprisingly apologised for his reaction to Katie Taylor’s hand being raised – with Claressa Shields among those left wondering why he did so.
The Matchroom chief gave it socks to the booing crowd as Taylor earned a unanimous 95-94 victory in her rematch with Amanda Serrano.
The 38-year-old has now earned two razor-thin decision wins over her great foe[/caption] Shields is the only other woman you could argue has a more stacked professional record than Taylor[/caption]In an interview with IFL TV the usually brash Hearn conceded he may have overstepped the mark with the extent of his celebrations.
He said: “I wanted to win really f**king bad. And there was a lot of stuff said during the fight that I didn’t like, and I don’t mind saying that.
“I’ve had my chat with Nakisia Bidarian (Serrano’s manager) in the ring after and stuff like that.
“And I think he acknowledges that as well. But it’s the passion of the moment.
“I probably went a little over the top with my reaction if I’m honest. And if I offended anyone, I apologise.”
The 45-year-old then joked with the interviewer that some people may now deem him to be ‘a k**b’ as a result – before conceding plenty of boxing fans already hold that view!
Shields, 29, felt it was a needless apology in any case given how amped up every member of Team Taylor and Team Serrano was always going to be heading into their long-awaited rematch.
She tweeted: “Why is Eddie Hearn apologising for celebrating his fighter that he promotes winning???
“Serrano team would’ve went crazy too!”
It would appear a round three between The Bray Bomber and the Puerto Rican is on the cards despite Taylor being 2-0 in the rivalry.
The setting for their next match-up is less clear, however.
In a chat with Off the Ball Hearn made it clear that her heart is still set on a night in Croke Park before she hangs up her gloves.
But the financial practicalities could scupper that prospect once again like it did over the spring.
“How much have we talked about it over the years and, like if there was ever a time…I’ve actually said this before, to be fair.
“But we’re in November now, that gives you enough preparation for a summer event at Croke Park.”
Hearn hinted that Taylor may not fight again, and said that it would take “something pretty special and unique” for her to do so.
He added: “We’ve just seen the biggest female fight of all time in front of the biggest audience of all time.
“It’s like, surely…and I’ll be honest with you, I don’t think it’s 100% guaranteed that Katie Taylor will fight again.
“I’m sure she will, but it’s going to take something pretty special and unique.
“We had a long call with her last night with (her manager) Brian Peters and she was full of (enthusiasm).
“In the training room after (the fight), it kind of felt like if she was to turn around now and say, ‘that’s it for me’.
“I’d actually be extremely happy in a way that you could bow out on a night like that.
“But then she said, ‘there’s a few things, though, that I’d really like to do’.
“I said, ‘what’s that’, and she said, ‘Obviously I’d like to fight at Croke Park and I’d like to fight in Las Vegas.'”
Hearn said bouts against either at Croke Park or The Sphere in Las Vegas would tempt Taylor more than another trip to the 3Arena or Madison Square Garden.
He continued: “I know there’s been a lot of interest from the Madison Square Garden guys because of the first Serrano fight to do something possibly in the Sphere in Las Vegas, which would be so iconic for her career – and Croke Park.
“But I just think if it’s Chantelle (Cameron) back at the 3Arena or it’s Amanda Serrano back at MSG, I’m not sure that’s necessarily going to really excite her in the same way that doing something different would.”
Maya Jama stuns in ‘nude’ dress as she takes cryptic swipe at ex Stormzy five months after split
LOVE Island presenter Maya Jama has made eyes pop after pouring her curves into a flesh-coloured figure-hugging dress – after opening up about her split from Grime star Stormzy.
Allstars TV host Maya, 30, looked stunning after jumping off a plane and into a slinky outfit as soon as she landed – following speaking about her wishes to start a family.
Maya and Stormzy announced their shock split in July[/caption] The single Allstars presenter poured her curves into the figure-hugger[/caption]In a rare interview about her personal life with The Standard, the presenter opened up about her love life and plans for the future – following her split with Stormzy.
The couple parted ways in July and the Grime star was recently seen kissing Grammy-award-winning popstar Victoria Monét.
“I am so happy right now but the next person I meet I want to marry and have kids with, so obviously I’m feeling fussy.
“I’ve created such a nice life for myself alone and I don’t want anyone who’s not going to add to that. I’m in this lovely bubble and I don’t want you unless you make me happy. If you’re not, I kind of don’t need you.
“One thing I’ve learned: some people are like, ‘I’m lonely, I need someone.’ But the mission in life is to make yourself happy, then find someone who brings something that matches that to the table.”
The former couple shocked fans with news of their breakup in the summer but still have a lot of love and respect for each other.
Describing their love story, she wrote at the time of their split: “We fell madly in love in 2014, broke up in 2019, and then spent five years manoeuvring life apart.”
The single star showcased her toned figure in the off-the-shoulder waist-cinching outfit, and left her hair loose and natural.
She accessorised with natural make-up and simple gold jewellery.
As she jetted into her latest destination after a recent trip to Miami, she captured her arrival walking through the airport with a friend.
The curly-haired star impressed followers with her DIY quick glow up and admitted: “I got ready in the car. I got changed in the toilet. Real life.”
Commenting later on her voluminous hair, the star was seen getting ready in a luxury bathroom in a variety of poses.
In front of the mirror, the star preened herself and noted: “Oh how l’ve missed this curly fluff.
“I really should have had this hair in Miami because I was struggling.
“But I’m going to wear this dress again because it was only quickly tonight. Gains of going crazy.”
The new Masked Singer judge, who has replaced Rita Ora, posted photos of her in first class on the plane holding a glass of champagne.
She captioned the post and encouraged: “I really treat myself like a princess.
“You wanna go away? Of course sweetie, book all the trips.
“You want that thing? Treat yourself.
“Hungry? Order all the cakes.”
The Rimmel ambassador was gifted a bottle of white wine on the plane by the staff.
She told fans and joked: “Love all of you cabin crew, always so sweet but I can’t keep waking up to bottles. I’m gna have a reputation of arriving twisted (sic).”
Fans will be able to see plenty more of Maya as filming for Love Island All Stars begins in South Africa in January.

A WOMAN who worked as a prison guard has revealed how she fell for an inmate.
Tameka, from the US, reckons she’s the only prison guard to be proposed to behind bars and is now married to Jonathan who is serving 25 years in prison.
Speaking to Love Don’t Judge, Tameka said: “I am the officer that is married to someone in prison. I got to be the only officer in the world who got proposed to in jail.
“Some of the officers, they don’t know which side of the law I am on.”
Tameka revealed she retired from being a prisoner officer and now has a pension for life to support her and her husband once he gets out of prison.
Currently, the couple only gets to spend eight hours together a week when Tameka visits on the weekends.
Tameka first met Jonathan when they were children growing up in the same neighbourhood but soon drifted apart.
When Jonathan was incarcerated for 25 years, he decided to send her a love letter despite not speaking for 14 years.
She said: “It was like, oh my God, after all these years, he still remembers me, he still loves me. At that moment, I was still at work, so I was afraid to respond back to him.
“I contacted Jonathan. He just said, I’m happy after all these years, you finally giving me another chance and we made it official to be with each other.”
Now Jonathan is up for parole and should be released in 11 years and always looks forward to their weekly meetings.
She continued: “The first meeting with him was insane because the same inmates that I had in my custody and I was mean to were the same inmates I seen that’s locked up with my husband.”
While Tameka chooses to stand by her husband, she says she is often targeted by trolls online who say she’s ‘stupid’ for marrying an inmate.
She added: “The judgment that I faced when I started my relationship is, he’s gonna take your pension, he’s gonna get everything that you’ve got.”
But she refuses to give up on her relationship adding ‘he’s my greatest blessing.’
The video posted on the YouTube account Love Don’t Judge has gone viral with over 17,000 views.
