Mind-bending optical illusion hides a SECRET image – but not everyone can see it

TikTok user magiceye0 says: “I bet you can’t see this 3D image.

“Hold the screen close to your nose and slowly move the screen away until a 3D image appears.”

They’ve even given a little hint if you’re struggling too.

The hint is: You’ll need one of these if you’re in the UK tomorrow.

But not everyone can see it, according to comments on TikTok.

If you can’t, we can reveal the hidden image is actually an umbrella.

The magic works because of something called an autostereogram.

Some may know it simply as Magic Eye due to a series of books on the trick.

The experience works by fooling our eyes and brains into seeing a three-dimensional scene within a two-dimensional image.

You’re not alone if you can’t see it – test it with a friend or family member to find out whether it appears for them.

If you want another try, there are other autostereogram tricks about.

This one hides something among a bunch of emoji faces.
