Think you’ve got sharp eyes or a knack for spotting details? Well, here’s a challenge just for you! I’m a big fan of optical illusions, brainteasers, and tricky puzzles, but I’ll admit—this one’s pretty sneaky! In fact, they say only 2% of people can spot the missing pipe on their first try. Are you one of them? Let’s find out!
The Scene: A Man, a Bench, and a Missing Pipe
In the image below, you’ll see an old man sitting contently on a bench outside his cozy home. It’s a peaceful setting, but there’s one problem: his beloved pipe has gone missing! He’s too busy reading his newspaper to notice, but can you help him find it within one minute?
Our elderly friend is dressed in a stylish red top with intricate details, paired with striped brown pants. His walking cane is propped up beside him, while vines weave around the bench, adding to the charm. But where on earth could his pipe be hiding? Is it lost in the plants or maybe camouflaged by the house in the background?
Take a Close Look – The Pipe Is There!
Take another careful look at the scene before you scroll down for the answer. Could the pipe be tucked away in plain sight? Pay special attention to his belongings—you may be surprised by what you find.
Ready for the reveal? As it turns out, what appears to be the top of the man’s walking cane is actually his missing pipe, cleverly disguised within the cane’s design! Sneaky, right?
If you managed to find it, congratulations—you’re among the sharp-eyed few! If not, don’t worry, this puzzle is meant to be tricky.
Either way, be sure to share this brainteaser with your friends and see if they can spot the hidden pipe as quickly as you did (or didn’t)!

Teachers are some of the most important people in our community, and yet they are one of the most undervalued.
It takes a special person to dedicate their life to educate others, serve as role models, give advice, and mentor the younger generations.
We often hear about how teachers have gone above and beyond to help others and, more specifically, the children in their care.
One such hero is Jonathan Oliver – a phys-ed teacher at WG Nunn Elementary in Valdosta, Georgia – who was recognized for his kind act towards a kindergartener while coaching a basketball game.
After one of his students came to him for assistance, he was only more than happy to help her.
When one of the kindergarteners on Oliver’s basketball team, Kristen Paulk, asked him to help tie her hair back in a ponytail, the coach sprang into action.
Taking a knee on a basketball to get down to little Kristen’s level, Oliver appeared concentrated as he worked on tying her braids back away from her face. Though, unbeknownst to him, he was being recorded.
In fact, Kandice Anderson, another teacher at the elementary school, filmed the coach’s sweet gesture — eventually posting it on YouTube, where he received heartfelt support from the public.
The title of the viral video read: “When your job goes beyond teaching!”
The footage eventually made its way to Good Morning America, who contacted the 34-year-old dad-of-three for an interview.
“It was sh.ocking to me that it got that much attention because we all do it,” Oliver Good Morning America, adding that he didn’t realize he was being filmed.
“We [teachers] want to make them feel likе they’re at home and that they enjoy being here,” he added. “We try to love on them as much as possible. To me, it was just a ponytail.”
The caring coach told the outlet that Kristen had asked him for help with putting a ponytail in her hair during a basketball game, but that his expertise sadly does not extend beyond that – even though he often helps with styling his daughter’s hair.
“It was a good thing she asked for a ponytail. Anything else, I’d say, ‘You better ask your mom,’” he joked.
Kristen’s mom, Miyah Cleckley, told the outlet that the video really touched her, saying: “I always know that Kristen is in very good hands with him. I thought it was really cute because her father he does their hair a lot. We have five girls and one son so when I’m working he has to pick up the weight of doing their hair.”
This story is just one of many stories about teacher’s going above and beyond for their students. They truly are heroes!
