Today's Daily Brain Teaser (Apr 11, 2014)

Altered State



Against my grip

you may resist

But in the end

you will desist



Turning upright

into level

Calming you but

not forever



Love or hate me

I'm undeterred

'Cause in the end

I'll have my third



What am I?





Check Braingle.com for the answer.

Newspaper Optical Illusion

Once again, I’m going to give you all a big break from the brain teasers I’ve been posting up lately. Amazingly, you all are still hung up on the Count the Balls Optical Illusion I posted a few days ago, so that illusion is apparently keeping you all busy as far as brain teasers go. Plus, I found a might cool optical illusion and I can’t help but share this one. This one is so cool you won’t believe it.


So, last night I was bored and was scrolling through my Facebook feed when I came across an absolutely amazing optical illusion and it’s an optical illusion in a newspaper, nonetheless. I thought someone had created this in Adobe Photoshop, but they really didn’t. This is actually how the newspaper looks. Are you ready to check it out? Scroll down and have a look.


Newspaper Optical Illusion






I highly suggest you actually click on the image to view it in a larger resolution. As you can see, someone out there is a marketing genius. Their ad sticks out above all of the rest. This is some of the best and creative marketing I’ve seen in a long time.


Want to see another cool optical illusion? Get yourself a bucket of paint and check out this optical illusion.


The post Newspaper Optical Illusion appeared first on Mighty Optical Illusions.
