Simple riddle too difficult? Many despair at first attempt

A very simple puzzle has been going online in various forms for years. It shows two pieces of paper . In one you will be asked in English to like / share it or do anything after you have solved the error. There are nine numbers on the second sheet.

We don't want to tell you at this point, you should finally figure it out yourself. Not everyone succeeded straight away. "I can't find it," writes one. "I've never been able to solve that. Ah, I've seen it now. Hooray! ”Writes a user. "It cost me around 30 seconds" a musician who also shared the puzzle. "Took 30 seconds" another one.

Do you really, really want to know?

Usually everyone can figure it out pretty quickly. The error is not hidden in the series of numbers. But almost everyone goes to the glue and first look there. Before you notice the real mistake. Which is hidden in the word "error". Because the English word "Mistake" is of course not written " Mitsake ".

In an age where many things are typed quickly digitally on the cell phone and mistakes are made - word correction or not - these are no longer so obvious.

The photo of logs, in which a detail is waiting to be discovered, is a far greater challenge than the puzzle in question. And the lightest search photo ever was from Lena Meyer-Landrut.
