When we think of mind bends, we immediately imagine things like four-dimensional hypercubes, quantum mechanics or an infinite universe. After all, they say that the human mind is one hell of a mystery and there are a few things that can send it into overdrive.

Well, it turns out that things don’t have to be so elaborate to create a temporary mental lapse. Quite on the contrary, daily random things, if lined up in a way that could be summed up as “accidental camouflage,” can create a brain fart so powerful it could blow you backwards with the brutal force of “what da heck is that thing?!”

So today we have a very special treat for you: Bored Panda‘s freshly baked list of pics of camouflaged things found in the weirdest places, at the weirdest times, occurring in the most absurd and all-too-real scenarios. Call them optical illusions if you will, but there is definitely so much more going on in these pics.
