Mind-blowing optical illusion transforms before your eyes but 1% CAN'T see it – can you? | The Sun

The cool transformation happens without anything actually moving in the image.

It appears to show several squares stacked out in black and white lines.

If you stare into it long enough, you should see circles magically show up instead.

And once you see them, it's quite hard to go back.

For anyone struggling, one viewer has a few suggestions.

"The circles are roughly the same height as the squares, on the same horizontal plane as the squares, and they are in between the squares," the person explained.

"The diagonal lines coming away from the four corners of the squares are actually slightly curved and they make up part of the circumference of the circles.

"It helps if you don't look at the center of the squares but look at the spaces between the squares.
