| Nice find | ||||||
| It burns, precious. | ||||||
| OUCH, MY EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | ||||||
| I noticed this while looking at Manhattan earlier today. Check out the Gize pyramids, they're pretty screwed too. | ||||||
| lol, Migrane >_ | ||||||
| Fo' sho. | ||||||
| 5'd for being mind f*cked | ||||||
| Through me, you have found the stars you have been seeking. | ||||||
| I am staring at it and I have no idea whats going on!! | ||||||
| I know! | ||||||
| LOL! i saw that too. it's cause it's an interoplation of 2 pictures, each taken by the satellite at a different position | ||||||
| I'd like to call that a "mindf*ck", zorgzorg. | ||||||
| ^ got it in before me. | ||||||
| Hmm. I want to visit that place! | ||||||
| hold your finger up, put your head directly over it, and move your head around it as a satellite would move itself relative to the earth (these pic taking satellites aren't geosynchronous). you can see yourself how the pictures turnd out that way. | ||||||
| they assemble images.. | ||||||
| Can I just call it a mind-f*ck, please? | ||||||
| ^lol | ||||||
| ^-- Lol, mastersitsu. I'm famous now, or some sh*t. | ||||||
| or some sh*t is exactly what this ytmnd is. | ||||||
| took a look at it myself, scrolled up some. man, Houston's neighborhoods are perfectly square. | ||||||
| Jealous much? | ||||||
| no you can not call it mindf*ck... | ||||||
| LOL, GEO Sats are approx 22,800 mi. above zero ground... Google must be using MEOs. | ||||||
| no i just hate screenshots. | ||||||
| Someone is in a poopy mood tonight. :( | ||||||
| no i just hate screenshots. | ||||||
| It's a mystery. | ||||||
| Aww, two stars?! You shouldn't have. :> | ||||||
| ya know what i will give it a three..just because you didnt write "lol" on your screenshot in ms-paint. | ||||||
| ♥ | ||||||
| eww f*g that heart makes it a 2, but then i raise it back to a 3 because i realize being afraid of gay people is stupid...honestly aside from Michael Jackson, how many people have been raped by homosexuals? therefore homophobs have nothing to fear...your asses are safe..raised to a 4 for making me go off topic | ||||||
| I win. :D | ||||||
| indeed. 1'd for self proclaimed victory. | ||||||
| no but rape ftw?? | ||||||
| Google Earth?
More like Google Escher amirite folks? | ||||||
| gonna 5 it because im bored. | ||||||
| Oh, you silly downvoters. | ||||||
| pictures taken from different angles stitched together. | ||||||
| OHMAH GAWD THE CITY IS FALLING OVER.
Seriously though, try to look at manhattan on google earth this sh*t is all over. | ||||||
| 's just because they spliced images from two or more satelites together - they were viewing at different angles and so the buildings look like they're leaning different ways, BTW. | ||||||
| lol, nsfw! | ||||||
| Houston sucks, I'm stuck here. | ||||||
| HOLY SHI!! omfwtf??????1 | ||||||
| MIDDLE VOTED YOU FRUIT | ||||||
| My.... MIND! ARG! :) | ||||||
| HOLY SH*T THE WORLD IS ABOUT TO END | ||||||
| houston divided by zero? | ||||||
| Houston, we have a problem | ||||||
| LOL FRUIT | ||||||
| lawl. | ||||||
| I know what their problem is: They Build That City on Rock and Roll. | ||||||
| Yeah, that happens a lot... That's not one photo, it's two. Because of the angle skyscrapers appear to the satelite, you'll inevitably end up with this sorta thing near the edges of the photos. But it's.... damn disorienting. | ||||||
| what they all said about the angles and multiple pictures, still cool to look at though | ||||||
| The Matrix. | ||||||
| LINK | ||||||
| Whatsa matta you? | ||||||
| The satellites are in LEO obviously. | ||||||
| yes, nice find. | ||||||
| lack of funny :/ | ||||||
| M. C. Escher | ||||||
| SUCK A DERP, POG STYLE WITH THE SLAMMERS AND SHINY TOPS | ||||||
| Neat find! 4'd | ||||||
| 5 for Houston | ||||||
| earth is round |
-1 | |||||
| Nah you see up here in houston all of our contractors are on crack. your seeing correctly. We built our city to labyrinth standards. >.> | ||||||
| haha evil | ||||||
| Is it falling?!?! My eyes decieve me!!! | ||||||
| |||||||
| 5'd and Fav'd... I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice this... Las Vegas has some of the same. Great Music! | ||||||
| impossible nadir point | ||||||
| put 3d buildings on and its truly a mindfuk |
+1 | |||||
| Wait, what? | ||||||
| this is pretty similar stuff to stuff I'm working with now, but I've never dealt with anything of that contrasting obliqueness | ||||||
| this is what happens when two sattelites with different orbital planes take the same picture. Help to save google earth. Go bug nasa about their sattelites! | ||||||
| Yeah, I've noticed that, too | ||||||
| "I know what their problem is: They Build That City on Rock and Roll." - loooool | ||||||
| ah Sim City on acid! | ||||||
| LoL nice find, different sattelite images spliced together. | ||||||
| IT's obviously due to a problem in the curviture of space-time. Probably some alien spaceship with a cloaking device. Also, Houston has really good architects. | ||||||
| excellent! excellent! order from chaos! | ||||||
| I've seen that alot on Google Earth, mostly in Tokyo. | ||||||
| That's because some retard pressed "Print Screen" in different positions. |
+1 | |||||
| Lol | ||||||
| Dr. who music plz | ||||||
| the rise in greenhouse gases turns the atmosphere into a warped lens when the Earth is viewed from space. that, combined with the Coriolis effect, causes that lens to literally fracture over near-equator locations. |
-1 | |||||
| wow, freaky | ||||||
| You just have to turn your head slightly to the right. Then you can see things fine. Caught me off guard at first though. | ||||||
| Upon closer inspection, yes, there is something messed with this picture. I withdraw my previous statement. | ||||||
| AHHHAHAH too many perspectiveS!! (head asplode) | ||||||
| ◄This is more like '4th dimensional city'► | ||||||
| Ow. My head hurts now... awesome picture though. | ||||||
| lol!! | ||||||
| Mindf*ck indeed | ||||||
| haha omg | ||||||
| MY EYES!!! | ||||||
| Two of the buildiings have to be slanted somehow. | ||||||
| "The tubes." | ||||||
| That mystery will never be solved. =( | ||||||
| Eww, that's weird. | ||||||
| cyclopsgoatfetus's ever-changing vote is a 5 in itself. | ||||||
| 4D City! | ||||||
| ★★★★★'d | ||||||
| HOLYF*CK | ||||||

| That's fun. | ||||||
| O_o? o_O? O_O! >_ | ||||||
| I don't get it. What about this image is a mindf*ck? | ||||||
| Odd for some reason my comment was cut. Perhaps it was because I tried to post a link: http://www.alpharooms.com/GuideImage.aspx?id=28269 | ||||||
| Ah works now. http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&t=k&ll=40.46669600,-3.68929400&q=Spain&spn=0.003691,0.007522 | ||||||
| WTF, who divided by zero? | ||||||
| |||||||
| Mind reaped... | ||||||
| Raped* :( | ||||||
| That happens sometimes in cities with tall buildings. | ||||||
| Five'd Cuz i dont know what happend =(
Nice find
:D
Meow? | ||||||
| 5'd for being totally f*cking awesome, good music, and being the first YTMND to r*pe my mind | ||||||
| lmfao 4d city. | ||||||
| cool | ||||||
| Ah Ha Ha! Google Earth! It's like a crappy Sim City simulation. Or, Houston has discovered demensional phasing... Or they're bad architects. | ||||||
| Excellent Work =) | ||||||
| WTF IS GOING ON HERE. | ||||||
| Messed up Texas FTW!!! | ||||||
| 5'd for scary music! | ||||||
| "5d for cyclopsgoatfetus" That was awesome, was it not? | ||||||
| If I had a logical explanation for this, it would be that the sattelite picture this part of the city at different time/location, ehnce the uber mind secks. | ||||||
| Crazy. Congrats. You win the internet. | ||||||
| Damn Dude. that sh*t is off the HOOK! | ||||||
| Wtf?! It must be because of the composite...? | ||||||
| liek thx 4 teh votes!1 | ||||||
| OMG thats awesome, Its in Huston BTW | ||||||
| I walked to the middle of those two buildings.
There I saw Jesus himself.
He said "F*ck downvoters". | ||||||
| MY BRAIN IS MELTING | ||||||
| First of all this was posted on many sites about a year ago. Secondly you haven't credited the site you got it from. And thirdly eat sh*t and die yadayada. | ||||||
| was gonna get a 2. lost a point for you commenting on your own site more than anyone else commenting on it | ||||||
| OMFG! OMFG! | ||||||
| Yeah, that's not google earth. It isn't even goggle earth. You've just failed. | ||||||
| not good enough for the kandi man. MEGAWOOT@22@@@@22 | ||||||
| very nice, chicago right? | ||||||
| Alright, so I got my obligatory Kandiman comment, now where's my "sh*t" and "You fail. Please try again. ^_^" comments? | ||||||
| MY EYES!! | ||||||
| upload full song for TEH 5! | ||||||
| Also, senior duck, you're a tard. What makes you think this isn't google earth? | ||||||
| That is the full song. | ||||||
| I have a bunch of pictures like this, I love finding crap like this, it hurts good. Just wish I had made a YTMND of it | ||||||
| Oh! Where could I donwload it? | ||||||
| meh | ||||||
| Houston is kickass in so many ways. | ||||||
| http://content.ytmnd.com/content/5/3/1/5312b14664dbcc9ae304b3ea5b5c0284.mp3 | ||||||
| No wai | ||||||
| I started out giving this a five, but then I read your comments and decided you're sorta full of yourself so 1 for you. | ||||||
| Works on google maps, too | ||||||
| im sooo high and that is trippy | ||||||
| lol nice | ||||||
| ^_^ | ||||||
| whoa | ||||||
| 0_o | ||||||
| AHH! | ||||||
| MC Escher would be proud. | ||||||
| "I started out giving this a five, but then I read your comments and decided you're sorta full of yourself so 1 for you." JamesTheUndead is a complete moron. | ||||||
| Yeah. I'm not full of myself, I'm just better than everyone else. (I'm joking, c'mon people) | ||||||
| lol, simultaneous perspective. | ||||||
| Tha hell? Change the music though. | ||||||
| Proof that Escher lives... | ||||||
| the buildings are all slanted that way in real life. | ||||||
| I lol'd irl. Also, true. | ||||||
| thats freaking awesome | ||||||
| never seen a user post so many times in their own comments | ||||||
| So, I'm not allowed to communicate to the people who are appreciating my YTMND, or hating it? Why should that affect my score? Oh well, you downvoters aint gonna break my stride. | ||||||
| .... Pictures put together, extrapolated satilites, what the f*ck are you guys talking about?! ... Thats really houston. :O | ||||||
| found another one...

| YOU DIVIDED BY ZERO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO | ||||||
| Those are the secret buildings. | ||||||
| it's an ok ytmnd, but obviously google earth doesn't just take one pic for everything, it's composited pictures and obviously some are going to be from different orientations and look a little weird
| ||||||
| Wait... wait... wait... WHAT?! | ||||||
| i think its just shadows | ||||||
| Wow noob pooner, you've figured out why the buildings appear to be built at 45 degree angles out of the ground, and you've also figured out why some shadows point this way, and why some shadows point the other way. You. Are. A genius. | ||||||
| Gh... ha... muh... YEARGHBLERBLL!! | ||||||
| The immsdpoin is ofinj | ||||||
| Google never ceases to amaze me. | ||||||

^ He ruined it
| ||||||
| that songs still scares me | ||||||
| i'd give it a 5 if you gave me coordinates. | ||||||
| The terrorists are making our cities flaccid. | ||||||
| Stupid Satellites. | ||||||
| You know what that is? That's the fourth dimension at work. | ||||||
| "you downvoters aint gonna break my stride" thats wrong i broke your stride read the comments you made a sadface at my 1 which i will revert back to now just cause ur a liar..."liars go to hell" - jesus | ||||||
| I knew before I looked at even one comment that some user(s) was or were going to explain how the image turned out this way. Thanks Einsteins. | ||||||
| I second the conspiracy motion! >=O I love the effect angled photography has on overlays like maps. Especially 2D maps of 3D objects like the Earth. | ||||||
| woah mindf*ck | ||||||
| |||||||
| .
| ||||||
| You, sir, win. | ||||||
| WTF GOOGLE HAX?! | ||||||
| You broke the interweb! | ||||||
| nice | ||||||
| D': | ||||||
| I didn't feel that my mind was f*cked in any sense. | ||||||
| different satellites. different surveys. stitched together by mappers at google. everybody calm down. | ||||||
| OMGYOUWINTHEINTERNETS | ||||||
| I still would like to know what exactly is so strange about the image.... | ||||||
| Interpolated pictures hurt the brain. | ||||||
| Assemble images eh? Google Earth isnt a big truck, Its... Its.. Its.. a series of assembled images! | ||||||
| Thank god this sh*t is off the front page. | ||||||
| why? | ||||||
| McEscher Deluxe | ||||||
| Fukin hell my mind is fuked | ||||||
| Looks like a Lovecraftian landscape. | ||||||
| you get a 4 for Unsolved Mysteries | ||||||
| just two pictures from above taken at different angles, and google earth is a mish mash of all those seperate things...ya this is old | ||||||
| Thats scary shiz! | ||||||
| wow, interesting find... | ||||||
| tubes are quite a source | ||||||
| AUUUUUUGH! | ||||||
| Wow, you mean someone f*cked up on the internets? My mind is just fine, thanks. | ||||||
| Who cares about the mindf*ck, windows live local > all | ||||||
| maybe... | ||||||
| m.c. escherish.. sorta | ||||||
| ftw! | ||||||
| WTF? You win! | ||||||
| WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE | ||||||
| I love you. | ||||||
| Hey you all who feel liike explaining it: THere is no pyramid youre standing on, we're all here right next to you, and WE GET IT...stop acting like YTMND=stup'd... | ||||||
| 5 | ||||||
| there's an easy explanation for this. The building on the left was toppling as the photo taken, while simultaneiously the snarky right hand side building was providing some shade for a sorority making a field trip fromfuigahroighbapdfuhvaoirusghbauiorygvnoaifuhvnoaifduhnv | ||||||
| my GOD PEOPLE JUST SHUT THE HELL UP OK!? IT IS A COOL PICTURE, REAL OR NOT, WHO CARES!!! EVERYONE HERE TURNED THEIR HEAD AND TOOK ANOTHER LOOK BECAUSE IT IS A VERY COOL EFFECT, THE GUY DID A GOOD JOB, STOP PUTTIN HIM AND THIS YTMND DOWN JUST BECAUSE YOUR JEALOUS OR FOR ANOTHER REASON..SERIOUSLY JUST RATE IT, LEAVE A SMALL COMMENT, AND LEAVE!!! | ||||||
| Freaky. Probably happens because the maps are made of different pictures, so it's probably just two pictures side by side that were taken at different angles. Still freaky. | ||||||
| I WILL GOOGLE FOR THE ANSWER TO SAID MINDF*CK! | ||||||
| aaaaahhhhhh prospective is broken | ||||||
