Bizarre optical illusion has people seriously confused as to whether they see a beach or a car

It's seriously messed with people's minds

A weird optical illusion has got people seriously confused as to whether they see a beach or a car.

At first glance it definitely appears to be a beach...but then on further inspection, you can't help but see a car.

The image has resurfaced on social media with people puzzled over the image, which shows a moody beach at first glance before the bottom of a car door appears.

The longer you stare at the weird illusion, the sooner you begin to question reality.

One social media user just didn't have a clue what was going on, writing: "I can see both and my mind is confused."

Another person's mind was elsewhere, asking: "Who else thought it was the moon?"

A third person must have been looking at something else, saying: "Am I the only one that saw two snakes?"

We can't say we've spotted a snake just yet, but there's no ruling it out.

The picture was posted to X previously and also appeared on a Reddit thread, with people all over the internet trying to make sense of what they were looking at.

One person wrote: "Holy s**t I could only see the beach and didn't know what I was supposed to be looking at," while another added: "There's even a ship in the distance, what the f**k?"

However, TikTok user @HecticNick has cleared things up once and for all, seemingly putting all of our minds at rest, for now.

He revealed that it is actually the bottom of a rusty car - which you can kind of see if you stare at the image really hard.

A similarly strange optical illusion occurred last year when a number of 'absolutely bizarre' blue swirls filled up the sky in New Zealand and have been baffling the locals ever since.

Look, up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's...mysterious blue swirls...

The rather spectacular sight took place on Sunday 19 June 2022, up in the sky over Nelson and travelled 750km south to Stewart Island by 7.30pm.

What genuinely looked like something from a Star Trek film was actually believed to be something caused by the exhaust fumes from a SpaceX rocket.

Auckland University professor Richard Easther told the BBC: "When the propellant is ejected out the back, you have what's essentially water and carbon dioxide - that briefly forms a cloud in space that's illuminated by the sun.

"The geometry of the satellite's orbit and also the way that we're sitting relative to the sun - that combination of things was just right to produce these completely wacky looking clouds that were visible from the South Island."
