4th object bathroom puzzle goes viral

The puzzle is a picture of a public bathroom where three cartoon people are going to the toilet.

One man in blue jeans and a grey top is standing up next to a woman with long dark hair who is wearing a brown skirt and orange sweater.

Next to them is another lady in a blue dress who is sitting on the toilet. They are all chatting to each other as they do their business.

At the top of the photo, it says “I’m sure you can’t find the 4th object” and there are four different objects listed at the side.

The first three, an egg, glove and envelope, are all quite easy to find in the picture, but the fourth is impossible. Where is the crutch?
