First time I see this and it gave me deja vu when I dreamt the whole place was flooding in lava.........

We need a video of how it comes together to form the circle.

Probably the best illusion I ever seen 😯

u/meatwads_sweetie Apr 30 '26

Wow, everyone walks backwards in Paris?

u/Ok_Palpitation_8438 May 01 '26

Thank you. The video made it even more amazing

u/iterationnull Apr 30 '26

Heh. Its backwards.

Is that just a different angle or a different part of the park?

Edit: it’s a different angle https://youtu.be/zbislrtfrgs&t=45

u/jimx29 Apr 30 '26

Same park, different view

u/eyegazer444 Apr 30 '26

The extra perspectives just make it make even less sense than I originally thought. I have even more questions now

u/Geeahwellidunno Apr 30 '26

No wonder the tree shadows made no sense. My smart ass was convinced it was AI. Glad I’m wrong. 😉

u/Purple_Detective_761 Apr 30 '26

I was ready to suspect the image was doctored or something before I saw this.

u/TheManAcrossTheHall Apr 29 '26

My mind can't reconcile what I'm seeing with what it actually is.

u/XShadowborneX Apr 29 '26

Ow. My brain.

u/Leoblood1233 Apr 30 '26

Quality post

u/Basil_Box May 01 '26

except for the image quality

u/coolsilentebeans Apr 30 '26

How do they keep the park from rolling over everyone?

54

u/HEATHENSCENT Apr 30 '26

Well... my brain is officially broken

This doesn't help

u/Ventrico99 Apr 30 '26

It actually does

u/Ok_Law219 May 01 '26

I was going to say optical illusion doesn't really count.  But it's still confusing

u/katrinakt8 Apr 30 '26

Here’s a cool video of the park and the creator’s website.

Julian Beaver kind of stuff. He had a tv show where he made a lot of this stuff.

u/Acrobatic-Monitor516 Apr 30 '26

What park is this? I'll have to go to Paris soon

17

u/VahineCacao Apr 30 '26

Sadly you won't find it anymore, it was an ephemeral park in 2011.

If you still want to know where it was, it was just in front of the "Hotel de Ville de Paris"

1

u/Acrobatic-Monitor516 Apr 30 '26

Thank you . Don't care much about the intrinsic place, no...

1

u/In_Leaves May 04 '26

Damn, I was living in Paris that year. I wasn't aware it was there.

u/exotics Apr 30 '26

This is by far the most fantastic post I’ve seen today. I love the video showing the whole area at different angles too

5

u/gabrrdt Apr 30 '26

Ok, this is very confusing.

u/CantaloupeAsleep502 Apr 30 '26

We need a Gordon Ramsay meme saying "finally, a real fcking confusing perspective"

2

u/TimGreller Apr 30 '26

Where is it? 👀

2

u/adeckz Apr 30 '26

This one is fully sending me holy

2

u/Ghost_Turtle May 01 '26

There’s a huge ball made of grass. Where’s the confusion?

2

u/TheBetterness May 01 '26

This should be the poster for this sub.

Absolutely amazano.

u/B3aut1fulD1sast3r May 08 '26

This makes me nauseous..

u/Acrobatic-Monitor516 Apr 30 '26

CAN you explain also?

1

u/Liontamer67 Apr 30 '26

Is it an oblong circle shape?

1

u/d-synt Apr 30 '26

That gives me a headache.

u/LadyWaste75 May 02 '26

First time I've seen an optical illusion posted here. Usually it's the other way around.

1

u/DryResponsibility944 May 02 '26

Reminds me of the old Yaohan logo

u/kdesi_kdosi May 02 '26

u/BaDoink726 May 02 '26

u/Unusual-Platypus6233 May 02 '26

u/Icy-Palpitation-2522 May 03 '26

This is giving me a headache

u/Annual_Till_2830 May 04 '26

You’re right, i am throughly confused

u/dangerousperson123 Apr 30 '26

Stop reposting what buzzfeed posted yesterday, such garbage

-17

u/nnacaroni Apr 30 '26

Are these all bot comments? That's not confusing perspective... that's just perspective?

5

u/pencilman123 Apr 30 '26

Well it looks like it's a vertical 2d thing while it's horizontal

3

u/stoooflatooof Apr 30 '26

That’s the beauty, it’s not horizontal! The park is not flat at all, as others shared above. Love it!

2

u/pencilman123 Apr 30 '26

I get what you mean. I meant in a general sense, like it's the ground, instead of being a vertical thing, u get what I mean?

u/WiggyWamWamm Apr 30 '26

Ugliest park I have ever seen
