At first glance, you might find yourself wondering, “what the heck is going on?” However, there is almost always some sort of rational explanation for everything, even though it isn’t entirely obvious at first.

The water in the pool causes this woman to look much shorter than she really is. Her body proportions are all distorted. It gives a whole new meaning to the term “big foot”.

3. Natural Monster

Here we have a strange root creature emerging out of the stream. It looks like something from a fantasy movie. At any minute, it could rip itself up out of the ground and come charging at us.

4. Bread Chaos

Being surrounded by this much bread can be very overwhelming. We don’t blame the guy for looking scared. It’s one of the strangest bathroom trips in the history of bathroom trips.

5. Ducks In Custody

These ducks were found loitering outside a store in Connecticut. Luckily, a brave officer quickly arrived to put a stop to the crime. He loaded the ducks into his squad car and waited for their owner to arrive.

6. Fire Tornado

Whenever the wind picks up during a forest fire, these crazy tornados occasionally form. The flames are tossed up into a whirlwind of destruction. The sane people among us go sprinting in the other direction while the firefighters charge towards the source.

7. Sharp Nails

If you would like to get an advantage in a game of thumb wars, this is a pretty good way to do it. No one is going to want to try to pin that thumb down. It would be way too dangerous.

8. Batman Family Reunion

The superhero showed up early to the event by himself. He was the first one to arrive. All of his other family members were casually late, as usual.

9. Honey Surprise

This wall has a massive amount of bees living inside of it. So many, in fact, that their honey began leaking out of the wall one day. It’s pretty much a homeowner’s worst nightmare.

10. Acrobatic Seagulls

Seagulls aren’t normally known for being hard workers. They mostly just swoop in to steal food from beachgoers whenever they are hungry. However, these two acrobats decided to put on a talent show and actually work for a living.

11. Suspended Car

In Malaysia, some poor soul accidentally got their car stuck in a tree. We’re not sure if it’s a lucky break or simply a ridiculous tragedy. Certainly, the branches helped to soften the blow of the wreck a little bit.

12. Skydiving View

You have to be pretty bold to jump out of a plane. Somehow, this man is all smiles about it though. He looks up towards the camera with a big grin on his face as he plummets towards the ground and canals below in Venice, Italy.

13. Deep Pothole

Most potholes are just tiny inconveniences. They can easily be avoided, or you can just slow down a small amount as you pass over them. Not this pothole in Michigan though. You could practically get lost inside of it.

14. Shredded Dog Bed

15. Creepy Fungus

Here we have a fungus (Clathrus Archeri) that could easily be the main character in a horror movie. It hatches out of what appears to be an egg. Sure, it’s not technically an egg, but it looks pretty convincing to us.

16. Winter Activities

Some people use sleds to glide across the snow. This family uses a giant metal cooking pot. When you are a little kid, getting drug across the snow in a giant pot is pretty much the best thing ever.

17. Bee Invasion

Hopefully, the owner of this car doesn’t have any place that they need to go anytime soon. If so, we would recommend that they take the bus. Otherwise, it’s going to be a very painful ride.

This company tried to make their outdoor fountain pink in honor of breast cancer awareness month. However, it appears as though they didn’t get the dye color quite right. Someone messed up big time.

19. Class Of Pi

In this university, the math class is hosted in room 314. However, unless you understand the professor’s sense of humor, you might not be able to find it. He converted the classroom number into the mathematical constant Pi.

Every year, religious individuals from all over the world make their way to the Western Wall in Jerusalem to pray. It’s not just limited to regular humans though. Even super-humans occasionally make the pilgrimage.

21. Engine Damage

The guy driving this truck was really lucky, or really unlucky. We suppose it depends on how you look at it. The giant gear came flying out of nowhere and almost took him out.

24. Animal Spirit

Combined with the shadow, this ceramic bull head statue looks even creepier than usual. We know we wouldn’t want to be hanging out in the room alone at night. It would feel like we were always being watched.

25. Rat Hat

We could understand a hat with something cute on it, such as a teddy bear. However, this woman made more of an unusual choice. She went out in the winter with a rat on her head.

26. Stuck Against The Ceiling

What is the purpose of a contraption like this? We aren’t entirely sure. He is wearing stilts on both of his hands and his feet in a room where there is no space for either.

30. Underworld Entrance

This lava “formed to look like a pile of bodies being sucked into the fiery void of hell”. It’s pretty wild. Obviously, that’s not what is actually happening, but to the human eye, it certainly looks like it.

34. Reverse Hoodie

Is wearing a sweatshirt backward the new cool thing to do? We don’t really see the logic in it. However, being adults, we are totally out of the loop most of the time anyway.

Imagine catching this bizarre creature on your next fishing trip. It has a long pointy nose, or so it appears. If you guessed it was some sort of fish, you guessed wrong. It is actually a blackmouth catshark, or in other words, a type of ground shark.

45. Cloud Mountain

49. Relaxing Bus Stop

This bus stop is more designed for laying down than sitting. Unless you turn your head to the side, you might not even realize that it is a bus stop. It got knocked over and no ever bothered to turn it back right-side up.

52. Stuck In The Cement

Is it an illusion or is this guy really embedded in the concrete? Judging by his smile, we would have to say that it is just a trick. How it was done though is anyone’s guess.

53. Comfortable Seat

If all of the seats on the metro are already occupied, don’t worry. There is a solution. Just bring your own rocking chair with you to sit on as this man did.

There’s nothing quite like hanging out on the side of a cliff to get your heart pumping. These people are completely relaxed about it though. They’ve already settled in for the night.

Cliff jumping in the ocean is all fun and games. At least, until the sharks come circling in. After that, it gets significantly more precarious.

Imgur Source: Imgur

A lot of people speculated that this picture was due to the sun setting underneath the clouds. However, that’s scientifically impossible. It turns out, the crazy glow is actually due to a forest fire raging down on the ground.

How exactly does a statue end up balancing sideways on top of a McDonald’s sign? We wish we had the answer. However, the truth is that your guess is as good as ours.

61. Everyone Out

The craziest part about this skydiving photo can be seen if you look really closely around the body of the plane. We count at least eight other little silhouettes. Whether they are multiple people or single parachutes isn’t entirely clear.

If there is no available street parking, you can always park on your balcony. It’s not as convenient, but the space is guaranteed to be open. It just makes getting in and out a little more difficult.

65. Powerful Kid

68. Talented Climber

Normally, it’s the young kids that get yelled at for climbing on things that they aren’t supposed to. However, in this case, it’s an elderly woman in a wheelchair. The fact that she was even able to get up there is beyond impressive.

69. Clown Soldier

70. Artsy Meat

This supermarket sells raw meat shaped like characters from video games. On the left, we have a ground pork supervillain, and on the left, a beef grind Mega Man. They both pack a pretty powerful punch.
