Internet brain teasers [1] can be fun, but they can also make you feel like you want to throw your computer out of the window. This brain teaser by @davuhairfactory [2] had me frustratingly screaming at my computer screen from the get-go. At a quick glance, the teaser seems like it would be simple. I mean you're just looking for a simple letter B, right? Wrong. It only seems easy until you realize just how many tiny letters there are.

So how did I get to the solution? Keep reading to find out!

I first dimmed the brightness on my computer screen. No, really. I knew this was going to involve some intense concentration, and I didn't want to get a headache on top of it. This was a smart move because no sooner than later was my face a literal two inches away from the screen, my eyes in total scan mode.

After I lowered my brightness, I then decided I was going to take a quick look at the letters on the screen quickly. I don't know if it is just me, but when I glance at certain blocks of text sometimes typos or unique words will pop out. Does this happen with anyone else, or am I just programmed differently? Anyway, my little trick worked and I counted at least one B. Yes, that's a start!

I then had to bring in backup – a piece of paper. I took the piece of paper and covered the block of letters. I then moved the paper over, revealing row by row, keeping an eye out for those surprise Bs. I first did this across, and then up and down, making sure to double check that the number of Bs I found each time matched.

Which brings us to our solution reveal – How many Bs are there?

Are you ready for the answer?

The answer is four! See them circled in red here.
