Are you guys and gals out there ready for yet another brain teaser optical illusion? I know you all absolutely love these types of optical illusions, which is why I’ve started to focus more on posting brain teasers up for all of you out there. This brain teaser is one of those ones that are definitely going to mess with your mind. I would suggest reading over the paragraph first of all and then counting up all the F’s that can be found in the paragraph. However, it’s completely up to you. Either way, you should only count the F’s you find one time and then post your results in the comment section below this post. Now, I present you with this letter counting optical illusion.

So, now that you’ve read over the image above, how many F’s were you able to count in the text? You should leave your answer below in the comments section and let us know what you came up with. I bet we will see a bunch of different answers. If you liked this optical illusion, you should let us know by leaving a rating. Also, don’t forget to share this with your friends and see if you can stump them, as well.

I counted six Fs.
10
9
I counted 8. My strategy was to read the paragraph backwards.
10
2 Fs?
I count 8 of them.
No, there are 10.
7
i’m guessing 10; some words are repeated.
uhmmm…4?
I got nine.
how should I count the two cases of “of of” of which the text is peppered?
i found 10 Fs!
I counted 10, and only after noticed that the illusion wasn’t really about the number of F’s, but in the fact that we didn’t notice repeated OF’s.
I count 9.
8?
There are “9” F’s.
10
there are seven 7 in the paragraph
there are seven F in the paragraph
there are nine F in the paragraph
10
10
10 f’c
9
9
7
6
8
9 F’s
there were 9
Is not the point of counting the “f”-s but not seeing the repetition of “of” in the text.
There are 10 f’s found.
4
I count 10. I’m guessing some duplicate words were meant to throw us off. If I’m wrong then I’ll like it.
10
There are 8 f’s
5
Hint: there are two of’s in the third, and fourth sentence.
I count 10 1st & every try
including the two double “of”s
eight + Two repetition of the word “of”, which people are likely to miss because they are too busy counting.
10
I believe there are 9
Eight
I found 9.
9
9
10 F’s
… of scientific … of of … Professor … of of … of … find … spaghettification
9. But I knew what to look for.
I counted 10
10
I got 9 F’s…..
9
There are 0 ‘F’ in the text (but 9 ‘f’)
9
I counted 9.
‘f’ … total 9
There 10 f. But two of them are due to repeated “of”…
I found 8
Nine
And re-reading it I missed the one in “University of Ushuaia”

You requested Capital-“F”. The answer is none.
f is 10 times in the text.

Greetz from Stuttgart
ojo
I counted 10 f’s
I counted 10
8 — with two “of of”s
10
10
9
The trick is that the human mind adimaticaly skips over the f’s in the word of.
There is 10 “F”.
10, if you got less recount the “of”s
6
7
6
I had to count more than once
8. How are people getting 10? Re-read it, got 9… Still no 10…Nope, still 9…Hmm…
9
Amazing… I went back and back, and could still only count 9. Went into photoshop and crossed out non-F’s and marked the F’s. Still only found 9.
For some reason, like James, I didn’t see the “University of Ushuaia”. My brain seems to have chunked that as one unit without an ‘of’ in it!
Great puzzle!
I didn’t count, but guys, do you see it? Word “of”
mostly is seen two times in a row!
i got 4. so confused.
i got 4 too lol
i counted again and got 6
9 including the 2 extra ofs, now I’m going back to see if I missed one because some counted 10.
Good luck :)
