Basically, the puzzle works by cutting each person in two, taking a small slice of them (1/12 of their height) and passes it over to the right until after 12 people you end up with a whole extra person. Then the creator mixed up the order of the people so that you couldn’t see what he did.
i m sure, there are 13 mens r there…..
They are Thirteen…
Look at the mid one…
The head is same but the body is changing after replacing…
12 only
12

it’s so typical…..
plzz xplain..:(
Or lets say, where does the 13th man go?
You need to explain where the 13th man comes from in the figure?
i guess it’s 12
i guess it is not 12 or 13!!! because when the figure is moving sometimes it can form a figure in 12 man and sometimes it can formed 13man
