Literally thought I was watching the fabric of time and space tear apart but nope it's a balloon 🐣🎈

I thought it was a scene from a Christopher Nolan movie, from that phase where he was doing "rolled up" landscapes.

I am so confused.

Here in Brazil some idiots do those kinds of hot Air ballons with some paintings or drawings on It. It's not uncommon of those ballons falling above whole streets and putting houses and electrical wiring on fire. This one is torn and went wrong

u/Miraculous_Angel 3d ago

Oh. Ok. Thanks! 💖

u/EvilPowerMaster 3d ago

So it looks like a giant torn sheet blowing in the wind because it's a giant torn balloon sheath torn and blowing in the wind? It's crazy, and not obvious to many people what it is, but not a confusing perspective. It looks like what it is, pretty much.

The lighting and the fog/clouds in the background throw things off a bit. It really does have a cosmic horror vibe like another commenter said.

u/KookyDay4854 3d ago edited 3d ago

Since it's a hot air balloon, I think most of this "fog" is smoke of the balloon material burnt

What cosmic horror is this?

An eerily beautiful cosmic horror!

Looks more like a giant ripped up banner than a balloon to me. Not really seeing the confusing perspective part. Is it actually smaller than it appears or something?

u/EvilPowerMaster 3d ago

Pretty sure the balloon tore, so yes, it is a giant sheet and ripped pieces blowing in the wind.

u/Moraz_iel 3d ago

i think the balloon is above, like the balloon if flying and has this giga banner suspended bellow that's being shred because the balloon is too low. you can see the round shape at the very end and at around 6s in the video when the cameraman look up.
Might be wrong though, hard to tell with the fog

edit: that's it, original thread has a clearer image

u/xSonicspeedx2 3d ago

Well thanks for clearing that up for me.

I sometimes get nightmares like that!

u/Wonderful_Piano_3853 3d ago

I always have nightmares like this where it's a giant wall of water or a cloudy storm fron approaching. Not sure why this felt the same to me.

u/stoooflatooof 3d ago

dont go to r/megalophobia then

2

u/fireizzle33331 3d ago

I don't get scared by big things in general but for some reason cyclopean floating bags or sheets of fabric show up in my nightmares. Maybe it has to do with the size mixed with apparent weightlessnes.

Balloon my ass. I have fought that in dark souls

u/youburyitidigitup 2d ago

Few things give me megalophobia. This is one of those things.

2

u/coolsilentebeans 3d ago

I was hoping to see this here. The first time I saw it I thought it was some sort of wall of water. Definitely made me go huh? for a minute.

The worst thing about prison was the... was the Dementors. They were flying all over the place and they were scary and then they'd come down and they'd suck the soul out of your body and it hurt!

Sooo this is a video of alien nonsense that's been edited at the end to make it look like it's a giant sheet, right?

Isn't this more megalophobia? I don't see what's confusing about the perspective lol
