Elise Favié from Netherlands submitted this cool picture. It even fooled me – optical illusions expert! I thought the guy in the image is lying down the stirs, so that it appears he is climbing them, and I wanted to rotate the picture before publishing it, but when I’ve red Elise’s comment next to the photo, I understood that it was the other way arround – The guy in the picture is actually climbing the stairs!
Here’s Elise’s comment: “I really enjoy watching your site! Spent several hours to see all posts and links. Maybe you like this one, I made this photo in June. It is actually rotated 90 degrees, but more fun the other way.”
Really nice job !
Hey, this one is good. It looks as though the guy is laying down on the steps. Not sure where the shadow is, but it looks good
NO. Everyone who thinks he is lying on the stairs you’re wrong.
Firstly, the description says that the original photo was of him standing on one of the steps, and the guy rotated it so he looks like his lying down (aka this photo)
Another thing is look at the stair ledges. The bottom one has a little hump on the corner then goes down again. If you turn it around it looks like normal stairs.
SO YEAH
no. the man taking the picture from a higher step, then rotated the picture so it appears hes laying down.
maybe someone should shoot a video of someone going up the stairs, now that would be weird.
The guy is laying on the stairs, and rohtop and rootman prove it. The edge of the steps and the wear show the way he is laying. Look at the angle of his legs to his feet, and the way his body leans. He is laying up the stairs, not standing.
I agree with Scott, He is laying up the stairs.
lol if he’s lying on the stairs then those stairs would be really easy to trip on. The things sticking out of the stairs would make it really hard to go up them, u’d hafta tip toe.
dude,i totally don’t get it,y iz that guy chilling out on the stairs???that’s like totally weird,man:$
you spelt stairs wrong. there is an a it stairs
It is very easy. the picture is taken by a camera above.
this guy just tripped whilst walking down the stairs and he did not notice, and his friend took a picture be4 he did!! xD
THIS CRAZY DUDE IS NOT LYING DOWN ON THE STAIRS HES WALKING UP THE STAIRS JUST THAT THE PICTURES UPSIDEDOWN!!! IF U DIDNT CATCH THAT U R BEOND WEIRD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is obviously man lying up the stairs, if you look at his hands (palm of his hand),and angle of his feet, now who would hold hand like that while walking?:) bit wierd, isn’t it.. you only put your hand alongside you when you lie down. they took picture of the stairs first, rotated it upside down then added picture with man on top of it.. easy as that..
haha
guy fell down stairs
bumped his head
thats pretty radd.
This is so cool keep them coming
this is wrong! his head is at top of stairs and his feet are towards bottom. his feet are flat on the steps. also the way steps are made is it bumps over at the end of a step and these ones the bumps are facing upwards. the camera is doing a top down view of him. so camera man is on top step holding camera out downwards to snap the pic while this guy is laying on steps with feet towards botom and head towards top.
by my point of view, its just a painting for me, cause it has only very few shadows BUt there is a flash of the camera
he is walking up the stairs its how they took the picture that makes it look wierd
haha this one’s cool!
It’s obviously rotated. Look at the stairs near his head. You can see the ‘ledge’ of the stairs. This set of stairs (like most) has a bit of an overhang, and if he was laying down the stairs, then these stairs would be rather uncomfortable to walk up, not to mention dangerous and you would trip on the overhang … So as an Illusion?, close but no cigar.
if you look upside down
it looks normal
It’s says 90 degrees but it’s 180 degrees. I’m only in the 4th grade and I know that!
he is do the plank down the stairs you downies
B***ocks, his head is at the top but he is still lying down.
That salience on most classical wood inside stairs are made on the vertical plane. So it’s easy to check out where’s up by looking at the first step (down in picture).
