Brain teaser: Prove you have the eyes of a hawk, spot the mistake in this image in 5 seconds

Want to sharpen our brain? That's a no-brainer: practise as many brain teasers as you can. Visual puzzles like brain teasers are right up there with Sudoku-like games that wake up a sleepy brain. At least science says so. Additionally, your observation skills improve over time the more you attempt these brain teasers. On that note, let's get ready for today's challenge. In this one, you need to spot the one obvious mistake in five seconds.

The image shows a man on a basketball court happily jumping to get that ball through the net. Looks pretty standard right? Except it's not. There is one detail that is quite obviously off in the image. Can you see it? Remember, you only have five seconds to do so. One way you can crack the code, so to speak, is to move across the image from top to bottom then left to right. Better yet, divide the image into tiny grids and work your way to the centre after starting from the edges. Ready? All the best!

It's totally okay if you couldn't spot the mistake in the given time limit of five seconds. The point here is that you're one step closer to acing another brain teaser in the future. Remember, it can seem tough at first, but practise and then more practice will make a pro out of you yet. Better luck next time.
