Warning: They will make your eyes hurt, so only venture ahead if you’re feeling brave!
Siamese twins
So this is what the entrance to heaven looks like! Like a golden paradise! After all, what’s better than one doggo? Obviously two! The only problem here is deciding which head is the best boi.
Monkey see monkey do
“I took a picture of a monkey and the glare made it look like it was taking a wicked selfie,” this Redditor wrote.
Since monkeys are a lot like humans, we wouldn’t put taking an actual selfie past them!
This backyard
Although this makes the eyes hurt a bit, you have to admit that it’s beautiful. This would be an amazing place to drink your morning coffee. Then, afterward, you can walk out to the clouds. Or is it the water?
The forest fire
“The way the sunlight hits these leaves and makes them look like they’re on fire…” this Redditor wrote. This looks so real, we’re convinced that this was the Redditor’s photo confession of arson…
The Upside Down
Quick, someone call the kids from Stranger Things ! They should be able to help these fellas escape the twisted world.
In all seriousness, though, the two guys holding themselves up in a side plank got a serious workout.
A mirror into the past
“Found this bike the other day and it confused me about our reality. Is it broken or not broken?” this Redditor wrote. Yeah, we’re going to need Keanu to get in here and fix the matrix.
Rage against the machine
Nope, that’s not a bunch of people getting loud and rowdy at a concert. This is a cotton picker at night! From this angle, it makes that green machine look ginormous!
The ice tornado
“The snow slowly melting on the front porch looks like an Ice Tornado,” this Redditor wrote. After seeing this, we’re glad ice tornados don’t exist.
That would leave behind quite the mess and a few poked eyes.
It’s a bird, it’s a plane…
It’s a flying doggo! “When my buddy’s dog leaps over grates her body and legs disappear and it looks like a dog’s head is just floating down the street,” this Redditor wrote.
His barks are worse than his bite
In addition to being a good boi, he’s a long boi! This certainly comes in handy, like when his owner isn’t looking and he can reach the pizza slice they left on the counter!
Bugzilla
“My friend had a bug on his windshield that made him look like a Godzilla monster,” this Redditor wrote. Be kind to bugs. You never know when the day of their revolt will come…
The reflection
“I’ll take the whole bakery to go, please.” That’s what Harold said when he pulled up to his favorite bakery for his weekly treat. He lost one pound, so he figured he’d treat himself to one of everything!
The invisible building
“Due to the lighting, angle and mirrored glass, this building looks nearly invisible,” this Redditor wrote.
We shudder to think of how many birds will fly into this… and how many taxi drivers will look forever for this building.
Shaken, not stirred
There’s a lot going on here! You might get a headache if you try to stare for too long.
You’re actually seeing espresso martinis that look like barstools. They kind of look like cookies, too.
The rocket
“For the past 10 minutes I’ve been trying to explain to my sister-in-law that it looks like her legs are over her husbands shoulders…she doesn’t see it,” this Redditor wrote.
Sorry, girl, it’s all we can see!
The black hole
The next time you’re late for work, save the “my dog ate my homework” excuse and let the cat help you out! Show your boss this picture and say that you fell into a black hole!
These birds are lit
“A pallet burned in such a way that it looks like different birds sitting next to each other and enjoying the fire,” this Redditor wrote. Enjoying the fire or getting burned by the fire?
The centaur
That’s one way to become the centaur of attention! Merge your body with the nearest dog and no one will be able to stop talking about it. Sure, life will be a little weird after this, but it’s worth it.
The fire
“This photo of me standing behind a grill looks like I’m on fire,” this Redditor wrote. He’s clearly got a little evil in him. It also looks like he’s poking a kid in the neck with a stick!
