Apparently it's a popular tourist site for the natural beauty, leading to construction of a salt hotel, which we suppose makes it the worst vacation destination in the world if you're a slug.God's Sand Art<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_04.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /><img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_05.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Take the people out of this photo, and it looks like a bad painting. It's the wave rock formation in Arizona, formed out of ancient sand dunes and creating that crazy depth perception-destroying optical illusion.We're not kidding, every damned picture of this thing looks fake. Including some that look like freaking finger paint."But This Store Goes to 11..."<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_06.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />There are marketing geniuses, and then there are the kind of visionaries who look at the ugly security fence on their storefront and decide it sort of looks like a guitar amp. Thus the Guitar Store in Southampton just went all the way with that idea, complete with big-ass knobs and everything. We want to hire that guy to decorate our adult book store.The Large Hadron Collider's First Victim<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_07.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The lady whose midsection appears to be in the process of getting sucked into a black hole is Cathie Jung, who, as you can see, has an entire website based around the fact that her body is terrifying to look at.Thanks to a lifetime of wearing increasingly smaller and more ridiculous corsets, she has a 15-inch waist and presumably a liver that's been flattened to the thickness of a Fruit Roll-up.And Its Second Victim...<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_08.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />If you're not clear what's so remarkable about this triangle sculpture thing, look closer and follow the surfaces from one angle to the next. That's right, it's utterly impossible, with its MC Escher design that seems to break all laws of the known universe.When this sculpture--located in Perth, Australia--is viewed from another angle you can see the complicated way it manipulates perspective to get the effect...<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_09.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />...but what we love about it is there's no plaque explaining what the sculpture is all about either, so nobody knows what the fuck it's supposed to be unless they're standing in exactly the right spot.More Nightmare Fuel for Kids Who Are Scared of the Bathtub<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_10.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />OK, this one just looks like some joker practicing their reflection effects by cutting and pasting this ridiculous rubber ducky into a harbor full of boats. But, no, artist Florentijn Hofman did it the hard way, creating an actual 100-foot long rubber ducky and sticking it in the water like God's bathtub.<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_11.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Why? According to the artist, "The friendly, floating Rubber Duck has healing properties: it can relief mondial tensions as well as define them. The rubber duck is soft, friendly and suitable for all ages!"In other words, "To terrify children.""You Need to Disguise Your Truck. Use This Giant Afro."<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_12.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />This ridiculous photo has been bouncing around the internet for years, and simply looks like a semi-competent attempt to make a normal truckload of corn husks look ridiculous via Photoshop's Clone Tool.But unless Reuters got really, really bored one day, it's a genuine pic from Somalia. They basically don't have a government there so no traffic laws are enforced (you can seriously drive on whichever side of the road you want).With the oppressive "limit how much corn you cram into your truck" regulations off the table, the locals cheered and said, "Yeah! Just cram all the corn on there! Keep going!"It's Raining Asses<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_15.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />These are Mammatus clouds, aptly named for their resemblance to udders.It's still not well understood how they actually form, so in a sense, these sky-butts (as we like to call them) represent the cutting edge in our meteorological knowledge.Documentation of Man's First Attempts to Win a Penis-Measuring Contest<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_16.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Hey, remember that news story from a while ago where that kid drew a giant penis on his parents' roof so it'd be captured on Google Earth? Well, it turns out that tradition goes back a long way.The Cerne Abbas giant for instance has been around for centuries (nobody is sure who made it). It's formed out of a trench that uncovers the chalk under the soil, creating a permanent drawing of a dude with a huge dong. Wikipedia thoughtfully includes a close-up of his nuts.<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_17.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It's common to catch sight of couples fucking, as doing so is rumored to prevent infertility. We'd prefer to think the drawing is less about fertility and more about the medieval custom of going into battle with a huge boner.God Declares the SUV to be Gay<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_24.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />It's the end of the rainbow! Wow!The above photo got spread around the Internet earlier this year with that exact title, claiming the photographer had found the exact spot the rainbow "landed" on the highway, as if it's a goddamned stationary structure rather than a play of light and water particles that changes depending on where you're standing."Screw Your Boat Race, I'm Outta Here"<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_29.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />We'd like to think that if you were in a speed boat race and Jesus called you to walk out on the water, he'd be cool with you slowing down first. At least for the safety of the other drivers.Of course, in reality, the photo just captured this guy a split second before tumbling horribly into the water at inhuman speeds. According to a source that talked to the dude in the hospital afterward, all he was concerned about during his recovery was how to make one of his friend's speed boats go faster. Way to learn from your mistakes there, buddy.Yes, That's a Dog<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_30.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Yes, an actual living dog. The above monstrosity is from the Super Groom competition, where the boundaries of animal abuse get relaxed, if only for a day. It's basically the Ace of Cakes of dog grooming, complete with what appears to be an airbrush paint job.Mountain Does Marilyn Monroe Impression<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_42.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Night of the Lepus<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_47.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />We couldn't tell if this was the most horrifying or most adorable thing we'd ever seen, until we learned the backstory. First terrifying detail: it is real. This species of giant gray bunnies are bred by a guy in Germany ... for food.Look people, we're going to say it extra slow this time, and we're going to link every word to evidence: Germany. Is. Freaking. Weird. If you choose to travel there, please don't return with photographs.A Water Park Designed by MC Escher<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_61.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />What sucks about magic is the tricks are always incredibly lame once you know how they're done. This one is no different: it's supported by a pipe running up through the water."Damn Kids!"<img src="http://izismile.com/img/img2/20090417/real_78.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />At first sight, this appears to be a home improvement project that accidentally tapped into Stephen Hawkings' most abstract theories on space and time. But then you notice that the kid who is right next to the portal to another dimension isn't disintegrating into millions of pieces, or even looking up from his goddamn cellphone.So it must be a photoshop right? Wrong again. The Inversion House is an art project that answers the pressing question: what would your neighbor's place look like if it was sucked through a straw in the Looney Tunes universe? The answer is pretty cool, though apparently not nearly as cool as whatever 13 year-olds are texting each other these days.~~!! Don't You Think That I Deserve The Reps !!~~</blockquote>
