Think You’ve Got What It Takes? Let’s Put Your Observation Skills to the Test
Here’s a fun challenge for your brain: take a close look at the image above showing two drawings of an elderly man. At first glance, they look exactly the same, right? But wait—there are two small differences hidden in plain sight. Your mission? Find both differences in under 10 seconds.
Sounds easy? Don’t be so sure. This kind of puzzle trips up most people, even the detail-oriented ones. So before scrolling further, take a good look, start a timer, and test your visual IQ.
Spotted them yet? Or are you still scratching your head?
Why Most People Miss the Obvious
Let’s talk about what makes puzzles like this one surprisingly tricky. Your brain is amazing at recognizing patterns—but sometimes, that works against you. When you look at two nearly identical images, your brain naturally focuses on the big shapes and overall layout. It assumes most things are the same and skips over tiny details.
This leads to one of the most common mistakes: people often focus on the wrong things. You might stare at the man’s bag, his hat, or his tie. Maybe you think something looks a bit off, but you can’t quite say what it is. That’s because your brain filters out what it thinks isn’t important—like small buttons or facial lines.
Another challenge? The pressure of the clock. Once you hear “10 seconds,” you might rush through the image, scanning too quickly and missing what’s actually different.

Popular Distractions That Trip People Up
Here are a few common “decoy areas” people focus on:
- The color and shape of the bag
- The mustache and facial expression
- The hat’s angle or shading
- The man’s shoes
But none of these areas contain the real differences. These details remain the same in both versions and only serve to throw off your attention.
Let’s Solve It Together: Step-by-Step Breakdown
Okay, time’s up! Whether you spotted them or not, let’s go through the solution one step at a time and see how you did.
First Difference: The Eyelid
Look at the man’s left eye (on your right as you face the image). In the left drawing, there’s a visible eyelid line just above the eye, giving him a slightly sleepy expression. Now check the right drawing—that eyelid line is completely gone. His eye looks more open and awake.
It’s a subtle difference, but once you see it, it changes the whole expression on his face. That tiny line can go completely unnoticed if you don’t study the face carefully.
Second Difference: The Cuff Button
Now move your eyes down to the man’s jacket sleeve, specifically on the arm holding the bag strap. In the left image, there’s a small black button on the cuff of his jacket. In the right image, that button is missing.
This little detail is easy to miss unless you’re zooming in on clothing. It’s also one of those details your brain tends to ignore because we don’t usually expect buttons to disappear.
So, the two correct answers are:
- The eyelid on his left eye is missing in the second image
- The cuff button on his right sleeve is gone
Why These Details Matter More Than You Think
These puzzles aren’t just for fun—they train your brain in useful ways. Spotting subtle differences sharpens your attention, improves your memory, and builds your ability to concentrate under pressure. These aren’t just entertainment—they’re mental workouts in disguise.
You’re not just looking at a cartoon. You’re exercising skills that can help in everything from editing documents to reading facial cues in real life.
Did You Catch Them Both? Be Honest!
So, how did you do? Did you find both within 10 seconds? Or did one of them slip past you?
Maybe you caught the eyelid right away, but missed the tiny button on the sleeve. Or maybe you noticed something that wasn’t actually different. Whatever your result, you’ve just trained your brain a little bit better—and that’s a win in itself.
