The SERENA tropical beach video hides a secret that only those with incredible vision can see.
The optical illusion featured what appeared to be a peaceful scene of a ship on the water near a beautiful coastline.

However, according to TikToker Nick (@hecticnick), the video is not what it seems.
Nick can be seen narrating in the bottom half of the video, while the beach scene plays out in the top half.
“This is not what you think it is,” he said, pointing to the boat in the water.
“It looks like a boat in the water with a shadow under it, doesn’t it?”
Of course, a blurry image could be seen in the correct position for the ship’s shadow on the water.
“Well, look closely at that shadow,” Nick commented as he made air quotes with his hands.
As the video progresses, viewers will need the eyes of a hawk to discern the different qualities not of the shadow, but of the creatures below the boat.
“You’ll start to see that it’s not really a shadow at all,” Nick continued.
“It’s something underwater!”
The TikToker then encouraged viewers to share the video to scare friends and family.
Many argued that the hidden figure must be a shark.
“It’s a shark,” said the viewer.
“It’s a shark,” repeated another.
A third commenter also pointed out that the shadow doesn’t really match the ship, despite the initial thoughts of some.
Several other viewers speculated as to what the shadow could be other than a shark.
“Is that a line?” one person asked.
Another remarked that it must be “a lot of fish 😏”.
“The shadow doesn’t even match the ship,” they explained.
In any case, animals can often accidentally create quick visual challenges like this.
