Twitter Reacts After Emirates Posts Photo Of Stunning 'Diamond Covered' Plane

Airlines often adorn the body of their jets with cool paint jobs to make children feel more conformable flying or to promote a partnership of some kind, but have you ever seen a blinged out jet?

People have been left amazed, confused, and super skeptical after Emirates tweeted a picture of a bedazzled jet from their fleet.

Here is the tweet from Emirates Airlines showing a spectacular jet bedazzled with diamonds.

The tweet was accompanied by the caption, "Presenting the Emirates 'Bling' 777. Image created by Sara Shakeel." The tweet has since been retweeted nearly 6,000 times.

People reacted in amazement but then it seems like people started getting a little skeptical.

How on Earth could a plane actually be covered in diamonds? Are they just little sparkly stickers that look like diamonds?

Some people thought the blinged out plane looked super ugly.

It seems like many people weren't doubting the authenticity of the image itself, though.

Instead, people seemed to be taking the image as the real deal and were even considering how the plane might be affected by the jewels.

Yes, adding diamonds to an entire plane would most definitely weigh it down unnecessarily. Some were straight skeptical from the beginning.

@BladeThundrbolt was immediately onto Emirates.

Remember in the original tweet that Emirates wrote, "Image created by Sara Shakeel." That was the biggest clue given by the airline that this was indeed a doctored photo.

The image was actually created by artist Sara Shakeel. Here is her post on Instagram!

It's hard to believe how many people thought the diamonds were real when Emirates Airlines gave photo credit to Sara right in the original post. Regardless, Sara made the plane look pretty darn cool.

It turns out that Sara actually incorporates the glittery jewel look on most of her pieces of art.

There's something so mesmerizing about this picture she created of bedazzled fries.

So there you have it, the surprising life cycle of a curious post made by Emirates Airlines.

I'm still thinking they should make a bedazzled plane, but not out of diamonds so the thing can actually take off.

Did you think the image was real when you first saw it?
