50 Times People Had To Look Twice To Truly Understand The Things That Were In Front Of Them (New Pics)
Our mind is really good at playing tricks on us. It can selectively remember certain details, create false memories, and even distort reality.
So we at Bored Panda set out to find the situations that made people do a double take to fully understand what they were looking at.
From unlikely coincidence to trippy optical illusions, the pictures we ended up with serve as a playful reminder of the intricate dance between the human brain and the world around it, urging us to appreciate the beauty in the ordinary.

Fractals. Also if you'd even partly begun mixing it, it wouldn't. So the title should be "this paint I was about to mix". And I even think it's a DIY store floor in the pic.
