If you're looking for something to distract you during the heatwave, a new brainteaser has just been shared on Reddit.

The tricky quiz is challenging users to identify all six well-known phrases in the image.

Although they might be famous catchphrases, they're still going to leave you scratching your head.

It's known as the Rebus puzzle, each block combines illustrated pictures with letters to depict either a word or phrase.

In some cases, the colour or the direction of a word will give you a hint to the answer.

Dozens of Reddit users have already tried to work out the brainteaser which was posted by u/Etheo.

If you're struggling to find out the answers, don't worry we've got them ready for you below.

Answers:

  1. Beating around the bush
  2. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
  3. Get your act together
  4. Time flies like an arrow
  5. Busy as a bee
  6. Absence makes the heart grow founder

Or if you're looking for an optical illusion, can you work out if these circles are moving?

But according to Optics4Kids, the image isn't actually moving.

Previously, a mind-bending grid optical illusion asks users to "count all the black dots".

The image was an example of a Hermann Grid Illusion which occurs by "ghostlike" grey blobs on a black background.

We also saw it happen when Reddit users were left baffled by this Apple Mac keyboard optical illusion.

When it was shared, one said: "Yeah I would never be able to concentrate."
