The optical illusion in this picture of two people hugging will hurt your brain

You can stare at this for a long time and still not figure it out.

Trust us, we’ve tried. Reddit users are stumped by this image of a couple hugging because of the weird optical illusion. The image looks like the torso of the man in front suddenly becomes a different colour and twists 180 degrees. The same goes for the woman at the back who seems to blend into her mate’s bottom half. The illusion is caused by the duo's clothes blending together and becoming indistinguishable. Reddit user Blood_Reaper shared the picture five days ago and it’s already amassed nearly 4 million views. You’re not the only one who is confused. Some commenters have tried to make sense of it and the best explanation is that his shorts are two colors, white in the middle, black on the outside. It’s still a head wreck. Image via Imgur
