IT’S not uncommon to celebrate something new by taking a quick snap. Take this couple, for example, who were enjoying their brand new sofa.
But after taking a look at the photos they took of themselves sharing a cheeky cuddle, they noticed they’d accidentally created a mind-bending optical illusion that made it look as if they had switched heads.

We know, it sounds bonkers but take a closer look and you’ll see it for yourself, even Kellie Gnauck and Sam Cassidy were shocked at first.
They took the celebratory pics to show off the emerald green velvet sofa to their family as they welcomed it into their Greenwich, London, flat on Saturday.
But it wasn’t long before they noticed what the uncanny sitting position had done, with 29-year-old Kellie admitting she didn’t think optical illusions like this happened ‘naturally’.
Kellie explained: “I’d ordered the couch back in September, so it’s been about a five month wait.

“So when it finally came, it was a very big day. And we saw a photo opportunity right there, so we took it.
“The optical illusion is the only reason we put it online. It was, by far, not the nicest picture [of us].
“I honestly thought it was fake. I didn’t realise these types of pictures happened naturally.”
The photo quickly drew attention and racked up more than 1,250 likes and comments from social media users

Kellie’s caption read: “Photo shoot with your new sofa? Sure! Why not!
“And by pure luck and many blessings, we ended up with picture number three. Which might just be lockdown’s finest achievement.
“Hell, it might be life’s finest achievement…who’s to say.”
The photo was initially taken to show off their new purchase to Kellie’s family back in Australia, but Sam immediately spotted the odd photo.
Sam, 34, said: “I didn’t find it creepy at all, I thought it was brilliant. I’d looked at the photo and realised how lucky we were to be chosen in such a world.

“We’re a blessed pair, few people can say they’ve experienced such wonder.
“I think people online realised how rare this was. It’s very rare – rarer than a unicorn!”
Kellie’s followers had also spotted the freaky illusion and were quick to point it out.
Instagram user Tyreece Macfarlane commented: “That last picture f**ked with my brain for a second.”
Another follower, @shadi_46s, commented: “Last photo is one of those photos where you get hella confused.”
Meanwhile, this woman is horrified after her ‘cute’ bikini snap goes viral for showing ‘penis’.
