  • This brainteaser first hit the internet in 2015, but has recently resurfaced.
  • There's a lone "C" hiding in this sea of "Os."
  • If you can find it within seven seconds, according to Sharesplosion, you're a genius.
  • The jury's out on what it has to do with your intelligence — but it is pretty tricky.

This recently re-surfaced brainteaser has been making the rounds on the internet again. Apparently, reported Sharesplosion, if you can find the "C' that's hidden somewhere among the rows and rows of "Os" in under seven seconds, you're a genius (they claim that 99% of adults can't achieve this feat). 

While we can't confirm or deny whether or not your sharp eyes make you a genius, it is pretty hard to see the "C" when focusing on the many "Os."

You can see for yourself here.

Having trouble? Don't worry — when this brainteaser first popped up in 2015 on Facebook, many people couldn't get their eyes to focus long enough to find it.

If you didn't see it, look again.

Still no luck?

That's okay.

The answer is below.

Or if you want to look one more time, now's your chance to scroll back up.

Okay, here's where the "C" is.
