Only those with an ice-cool IQ can find hidden mistake in frosty North Pole scene

For many of us, our go-to way to relax is by lying on the sofa and watching the latest binge-worthy Netflix series, and while there's no arguing that's sometimes what we need, there are other, more beneficial ways to chill out.

Completing a brain teaser isn't only fun, they also help improve brain health and boost memory by staying focused on one task. They challenge our minds to think outside the box, which in turn helps improve your problem solving skills.

So why not challenge yourself to complete a tricky brain teaser today? We have a themed puzzle for you that will encourage your mind to think a little differently.

There's a mistake hiding in this picture, and your challenge is to find it within five seconds (Bright Side)

Instead of finding the odd letter in a sequence, or spotting a particular item like a Gladiator's sword, you are challenged to look for the hidden mistake in a frosty North Pole scene.

In the above image you can see a snowy scene including a cabin in the background, trees and two people, one standing by a sled with a broom, and another crouching down to a penguin. Your challenge is to find the mistake hiding in the picture.

If you have all the time in the world you would no doubt be able to find it, but the thing that will distinguish your intelligence is by finding it within five seconds.

According to JagranJosh, if you manage if within the timeframe you could be on the higher end of the IQ scale.

If you're still struggling to find it after five seconds, don't worry, you can still redeem yourself. Do you need a hint? Take a look at the bottom left side of the picture, in the region of the woman with the red coat.

It might not be as obvious as you think – you're looking for something that doesn't belong in the North Pole.

Still struggling? You'll find the answer in the picture below, so stop scrolling if you want to keep trying.

The answer is the penguin (Bright Side)

The answer is the penguin, a species of flightless marine bird that can't be found at the North Pole as they live in the Sourthern hemisphere – so the South Pole. Their habitat generally features oceans and coasts in remote regions where there are fewer predators.

Want to test your mind further? How about trying to find the correctly spelled word in this mind-boggling brain teaser?

Did you manage to find the mistake? Let us know in the comment section below.
