Optical illusion reveals whether you’re smart or optimistic depending on what you see first

A new optical illusion claims it can determine your greatest strength – depending on what you see first.

Black and white photo, shared by the American website YourTangoit looks like something from a Halloween-themed children’s book and consists of three images – a young girl, a skull and a spooky forest.

Which of the three you see first can define your personality.

If your eyes were first drawn to the young girl, your nature means that you can easily cope with almost anything.

Your quiet optimism means you thrive in situations where others might be shocked.

These people tend to have a youthful spirit and are able to easily overcome obstacles in life.

However, if the skull caught your eye, intellect is your greatest quality.

You are introspective and hold only considered thoughts.

They are also more determined to face challenges that others shy away from.

However, if you have seen the landscape for the first time, you tend to trust your instincts.

At times when others would panic, you can always rely on your gut.

A less scary optical illusion claims it can tell if you’re a natural-born leader – depending on which animal you spot first in an image.

And it’s not the only optical illusion that has taken the internet by storm this month.

If you’ve studied the photo and are still struggling to find the image, this hint may help.

The difference is that the strange tree has a lighter colored trunk than the rest of the plant, but this pale bark is easy to miss.

It follows another optical illusion image that claims to reveal a key personality trait simply by what you see first in a photo.

Posted by American Psychologylove (psychologylove100) TikTok accountwho has more than 325,000 followers, the video suggests that people have either a creative or a logical nature, depending on the animal that is revealed to them.

The voice explains that it can show how their brain works when faced with problems and tasks.

Showing an image of two green crocodiles on a yellow background, creating a bird in the centre, it comes with the message: ‘Discover your true personality’.

Explaining the psychology behind the thought process, the video reveals: ‘What you see first will reveal a very specific aspect of your personality.

“If you see crocodiles first, it shows that you are a very sensitive and creative person, you are able to see the beauty in simple things and you are often inspired by your surroundings.”

According to TikToker, those who fall into this category are often imaginative and take an innovative approach to problem solving.

Those with this personality trait, he added, are usually ‘drawn to the arts, music and literature’ and are ‘able to see beauty in things that are often overlooked by others’.

However, if you see a bird when you first look at the image, the TikToker explained that you are most likely a logical and practical person.

He said: ‘If, on the other hand, you saw the bird first, then it shows that you are an extremely observant and analytical person.

“You have a sharp mind and are able to see the finer details in things. You are also very perceptive and able to figure things out quickly.

“You are attracted to scientific mathematics and logic and are able to solve problems effectively.”

Viewers of the TikTok video were loving the personality test and were quick to leave comments below.

One person wrote: ‘Bird seriously it’s me ooo how do you know so much boy.’

“Bird and it’s absolutely correct,” added someone else.

Another user wrote: ‘Correct….. So to the point.’

Some couldn’t see the bird at all, while many people responded saying they saw both the crocodiles and the bird, to which the creator replied that he was ‘crazy’.
