Real picture taken atop the Los Angeles Wilshire Grand Tower
Here's an even scarier photo of the above one
Wingardium Leviosa
Aurora Borealis over the mountain
Though it looks like a screen glitch, this is actually an intricately-carved wooden cabinet by designer Ferruccio Laviani
This is just an incredibly well-timed photo of a geyser in Strokkur, Iceland, taken right as the geyser is about to erupt.
A plethora of sheep. It's real tho
Picture of a rainbow laser. That’s right. A rainbow Laser
Scaly Icebergs of Antartica
Tulip field in Holland
This photo shows a spectrum of colors from flower bulb fields near Lisse, Netherlands in 2007
A tourist taking photos in London's Trafalgar Square was aligned perfectly near a fountain
The above two photos are frozen bubbles in Canadian lakes
Long exposure of a plane taking off from a runway
Cherries under the water
A beach with sinusoidal waves
Christ the Redeemer with an airplane doppelganger
Modern dykes, windmills and highways in the Netherlands
Above and below the water. It's real, folks
The road that separates New York from, well, New York
These tree-climbing goats are actually real: they climb the Argan trees of Morocco in search of food, which is otherwise sparse in the region
Pool during a flood that just narrowly avoided being contaminated
An Italian beach
People created this gravity-defying art form called “rock balancing”
Tennis match - Andre Agassi vs Roger Federer at Burj-al-Arab-hotel. It really happened in
Here's a photo of the hotel where the tennis match was shot. The court was created on the hotel's helicopter landing thingy.
The Invisible Hockey Player. Not Photoshopped, just remarkable timing
Not Photoshopped. This look is called the ‘desaturated Santa’, and the effect is created by hours of painstakingly applied makeup. The costume was debuted at the 2009 San Francisco SantaCon
This looks like an intricate painting of some wintry forest, it’s actually just an aerial photo of a dried-out Mexican riverbed from National Geographic
Looks fake but it’s actually a piece of construction art by artist Dean Ruck. The intensely ambitious project was created outside a Texan house that was due to be demolished.
Here's a close-up shot of the weird house photo
Going to Hell, anyone?
This hellish image is of a decorated subway station in Stockholm, Sweden. The natural bedrock has been painted to resemble the underworld.
It looks like it could be the legendary sea monster the Kraken … but it's really just an actual photo of some seaweed in the waves taken at New England’s Innsmouth Beach. I love to surf but I think even I would take a pass here.
Japanese Snow Walls - Known as the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, this famous sightseeing path stretches 500 metres. It takes three very expensive days to carve out these perfect lanes
This looks like a digital image shading exercise, but it’s actually the astounding aftermath of a deadly toxic sludge spill in Hungary
This is a real photo of a shark eating a dogfish which had initially eaten a baitfish which had been put out by the people on the boat to attracted tagged sharks.
Totally looks Photoshopped but it's an actual photo of a floppy-eared monstrosity that is a German breed of rabbit known as a Giant Grey
In ~2010 it was found that a Chinese boy had been born with a total of 31 digits (fingers & toes) He has since had surgery to remove the extra appendages.
Everyone thought this was a painting but this is actually a photo of trees in the Namibian desert taken at twilight. The orange in the background is sand dune.
Here is a different shot of a similar set-up to the one above. This one looks more real but you can see how the one above could actually exist.
This is not a joke nor is it Photoshopped. There really is an 85-tool Swiss Army knife.

#15 reminds me of that band, Sinusoidal Tendencies
swisscheesycheese
Oh wow that was bad +1
delveccio
I can't explain why, but the dried out riverbed one makes me extremely uncomfortable. What's wrong with me?
sticksosteel
So... who's taking the first picture?

#2 BUT WHO TOOK THE PICTURE!?
SaltyJamz
To the first one
jbulldozer
if they arent photoshopped then how are they so vibrant and sharp? I guess you could also call them lightroomed.
spottedfromadistance
Some excellent pictures here that baffled my brain for a bit. Thanks for the explanations OP. Definitely worth my +1, wish I could give more
SurferChick
Thank you, sweetie. That's wayyyy better than the usual, "Stop posting your stupid shitposts" comments that I usually get here on Imgur. LOL
spottedfromadistance
That's probably due to the fact that I'm not a 14 year old boy looking for boobs :). Keep up the sterling work.
veryaveragedude
How was the first picture take ??

#17 Wind TURBINES darnit! Not windmills, they don't mill anything.
SurferChick

1/2 i have the opposite problem. I know great words that I don't use all the time but can't remember words like travel mug or plastic water
Cthulily
2/2 bottle so I just say container. I'm working on it.

Pissed myself a little on the first one.

So, those are just some random seaweeds on the coast of Innsmouth? I'm not really convinced they aren't shoggoths.
GregKeen
Yeah, nice try with the cover up on the Cthulhu, I saw straight through it.
SethCronyn
Fantastic stuff. Truly fascinating. Thank you for sharing. ????
SlyMrFox
Jeffe, would you say I have a plethora or sheep?

The tennis court freaks me out because I swear in normal courts, players return shots from farther back than possible on that one.
Fanofthegoldenpun
Must have taken some balls to play that match ay!!!!
LargeVarge
Much larger ones for that first picture.
vahnn
I watched some footage, they didn't have a real match. They casually did little baby hits up close... far from the edge lol
randombrain
also wind would be a major factor that far up
menancer
You know you're old when you see someone is trying to assure everyone that the tennis match on burj Khalifa "really happened"
M1ndstorms
But that isn't the burj Khalifa

The rainbow laser originated in 1973. It was caused by a giant triangular prism. Light entered the prism, and a rainbow laser shot out.

Is that why so many people have gotten the gay in todays day and age?

Wouldn't the wind be really strong up there? Would it blow you off if you tried to stand?

Did anyone else count the fingers and toes? I did.
deredactie
Yeah. 32.
cluckythehorse
I counted 30. Maybe his penis is a thumb or something.
vahnn
I got 30, and I counted twice.
FreudIndianNipSlip
Imagine being fingered by him.
poets
I wonder what else he has multiples of...
mercbrit
No, because we trust OP who seems to know the all the stuff. It looked about right but he could have said a wide range of plausible numbers
reallyolddispatcher
This little piggy went to market...
saintofchaoticgood
Somebody absorbed their twin.
TheMortimis
Counted 30. 7 on each hand, 8 on each toe.
thebeznez
Idk why but “8 on each toe” killed me
browsib
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
thesarahpowellexperience
"8 on each toe" could you imagine little baby toes on your toes!
ItalianaNrd
Can you imagine making up places to go and things to eat for all them little piggies?
thesarahpowellexperience
Oh my goodness, your comment is too cute!
mongsi
Do you have photoshopped photos that look real?
SurferChick
Not on me.
Spankolina

SurferChick
Well, here's a photorealistic one I did a few months ago, knowing someone would want a copy http://imgur.com/idJnTTZ
