This picture appears to show a girl with THREE LEGS - can you work out what’s happening?

This picture of a girl with three legs has got people well and truly stumped.

The image, that hasn’t been photoshopped, shows the young girl kneeling down on two legs – with another leg balancing on her foot.

It looks like something out of a science fiction movie and it stumped Imgur users after it was posted up on the site recently.

The optical illusion has a very simple explanation – that third leg is nothing more than a vase:

The colouring of the vase clashes with the girls clothing and makes it appear at first instance to be a third leg.

However, once you see it, you realise your eyes were just playing tricks on you.

The image has actually been around for a while, but it is only now that people are realising what they were staring at.
