Get ready to test your powers of perception by checking out the outrageous and bamboozling optical illusions below. Don't forget to let us know which of these confused or astounded you most?

While it may at first seem like the lines are curved, they are in fact parallel. Curious to know where the name came from? The illusion was discovered by R.Gregory on the wall of a cafe in Bristol.

Keep your gaze focused on the four dots at the center of the picture, then look quickly at the ceiling and blink. What did you see?

9. Discoloration

Look at the white dot in the center for 30 seconds and notice how the colorful dots around begin to change colors or fade away completely.

10. A couple in love

When children look at the image they see dolphins at play. While adults see a couple in love. The image was made by Sandro Del-Prete and is called 'Message of Love from the Dolphins'.

This illusion is actually a real work of art created by Rob Gonsalves, a Canadian painter of magic realism. Depending on the angle of the image, you'll either see an arch of a long bridge, or ship sails.
