Optical Illusion Eye Test: Find W among M’s in 4 seconds!

Readers are shown a grid of Ms in the image shared above. There is one exclusion, though.

[{"selector":"#anim-317aa5be-6342-4957-ae3a-24e462aa8cf0","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e47f0b36-8081-4ce4-9578-d3a6f6dc6c2b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(107.97721%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fa6f85be-2606-4ddb-a321-f4e4d81bb660","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ac5dce6f-1564-421c-9901-44259826ae21","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.87301%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The readers' task is to identify the letter W buried amid the Ms in under four seconds.

[{"selector":"#anim-b2a3466f-4d28-4022-a69d-57864c97a070","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-65c81a24-14da-460a-a1e6-4a684538f715","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(107.97721%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fe0bf23b-aeec-4bb7-8231-02d1ec720bab","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7fcec152-aff0-4e6a-bf6c-5da409f6e9d4","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.87301%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Can you identify it in the allotted time? This is the beginning of your time! This is a short test to see how well you can observe.

[{"selector":"#anim-6ae9d913-1b75-4263-8237-7b519cdcd724","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-24af076c-c98f-4d55-a49d-d6ff427eddf9","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(108.83192%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-88f429ef-d294-4ef2-8272-795995ffe1d9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3c2869a8-ff53-4417-88e4-6b621246e741","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.87301%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The most acute eyes are those who can identify W more quickly than others. Examine the picture closely.

[{"selector":"#anim-2d29ff4b-2903-4289-bdc0-4655bfb9ff43","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-03cb959c-a21d-43ff-b2d3-30faf8e4149c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(108.26211%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-baee6396-de85-4872-a4b6-796ca396101f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e4f678b7-27d9-4309-b0a3-1f1e5436c592","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-115.87301%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Have you located W? There is not much time left. Just take a close look to find it.
