10 Of The Strangest Things Seen On Google Street View

Wed, 02 Sep 2015 10:30:33 +0300

Google Maps and other similar services are technologies that have grown exponentially in the last couple of years. Prior to their invention, those who wanted to get directions to a specific location in the near future would have to either get a physical map or use a special satellite navigation system. That has all changed now though, as a simple click of a few buttons on a keyboard now allows users to go on the internet and get directions almost immediately to any destination. They can then use this information by printing it or using their smartphones and tablets while travelling. Sometimes the cameras capture unexpected or downright odd photographs because people were unprepared for the vehicle’s arrival (or the very opposite). Regardless of the reason behind the picture, Google Street View is littered with bizarre and strange images from all over the world.

Give A Child A Nightmare

Thu, 12 Sep 2013 12:02:50 +0400

Kids are way too sheltered these days. With 24 hours of children’s television available, they aren’t forced to watch Unsolved Mysteries and America’s Most Wanted like I was. Stir things up a bit. Get a Zombie Pet Plush. The huggable undead might bring them some sweet–yet still a little scary–cuddles by day, but turn the lights out and wait for the screams! Look at these things…they’re pretty gross looking. Choose from Bitey – a possibly rabid baby werewolf, Deadington Ruxworth – a stuffed bear, or Frostbite – an undead penguin.

The Most Morbid Photo Series You'll See Today

Sat, 07 Sep 2013 14:12:44 +0400

Ready for the most morbid question you'll be asked today? If you were to die tomorrow, what photo would you choose to be displayed at your funeral? Photographer Frieke Janssens is behind Your Last Shot, a set that takes that thought-provoking question and turns it into an intriguing series. “In reality, those left behind need to quickly find a photo that is ‘OK’ and usually requires some Photoshop retouching," he states. "How would the deceased feel about the chosen photo? Maybe he or she would have untagged themselves from it?” You can actually get your very own last shot for the high price of 835 euro or about $1,100 US dollars. Frieke will take your portrait, you'll get a team of professionals to do your make-up and styling, and you'll come away with your very own portrait baked in oval porcelain. As Frieke says, "Your last shot will not be your cheapest shot, but hey... you only live once."

Finland's 'Magic Forest' Is Actually A Place You'll Want To Avoid

Fri, 23 Aug 2013 10:44:55 +0400

If (like many) you found Singapore’s Frightening Theme Park Dedicated To Chinese Mythology a little too confronting, but still want to seek out the unusual and strange, you could always pay a visit to the “Magic Forest” in Imatra, Finland. Whether by choice or just bad design, it’s a forest littered with unsettling stone mannequins whose’s expressions are almost as creepy as the scenarios they’re placed in. How about a moustached made in a sharp blue seat, handcuffing a teenager to a tree and beating him with a cane? Or maybe you’d be more interested in a tall lanky local flasher?
