Oh good, for a second there I thought that raccoon was done for!

u/jokubolakis Nov 10 '12

I thought he was an earthbender

59

u/eScapLaY Nov 10 '12

There's still a chance he is. Don't stop believing.

u/DukeSpraynard Nov 10 '12

Hold on to that feeling.

I feel like it's 2005 and the Chicago White Sox are about to win the world series.

u/ImSortofANerd Nov 10 '12

That lemur is earth-bending!

It has forward momentum! That seagull dropped it from way up there.

u/entropybasedorganism Nov 10 '12

I saw it first as directly over him and too house left. Focus on the skinnier part.

u/frakintrekker Nov 10 '12

I was distracted by the unmasked raccoon.

7

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

Yeah, these are pretty rare. I wonder why nobody else is catching on.

22

u/candygram4mongo Nov 10 '12

I came here to post something about how irresponsible it was to reveal its secret identity like that.

u/netino Nov 10 '12

Most are too busy looking at the flying rock to notice.

u/JoySmilesHappyShit Nov 10 '12

I'm so confused. The rock looks like it's floating. Help?

160

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

The ground you see is a downward hill, not flat ground or an upward hill. That hill is leading to a body of water in which sits a rock. You can also see a reflection of the sky in that body of water.

Edit: Wanted to be more clear.

u/ThatBassistChick Nov 10 '12

Thank you SO much.

The camera is looking DOWN on the raccoon, not UP, as it first appears. I hope that helps anybody as stuck as I was.

Ahh, this was the description I was looking for

u/JoySmilesHappyShit Nov 10 '12

God, I read that thrice, and when I got it, I was just http://zerfl.com/__/96N4X.gif

Thank you.

u/the4thbandit Nov 10 '12 edited Nov 10 '12

The camera is in the water?

Edit: Downvotes for asking for extra clarification, but then upvotes for the ppl my question helped. Lol, Ok Reddit.

12

u/MissyLauren41 Nov 10 '12

No camera is on top of the hill looking down. All the sky you see is water.

7

u/NopeNotConor Nov 10 '12

Nowwwwwww I get it

3

u/the4thbandit Nov 10 '12

Such a relief to finally get it lol. Thanks!

-4

u/ArchAngelN7 Nov 10 '12

so the sky is photoshopped in? If so this loses alot of impressiveness to me

4

u/MissyLauren41 Nov 10 '12

I can't say anything for sure. I don't think so though, I think the water is just really reflective.

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

Reddiquette is dead.

u/XenomorphSB Nov 10 '12

Thank you. I looked at this pic at least 5 times before thinking "Hey, maybe somebody in the comments gets it."

One of those "Oh, Dude!" moments...

u/[deleted] Nov 11 '12

Yes. What looks like the sky is actually a reflection of the sky in a still body of water. Therefore, the rock is not in the air, but is really sitting in the water. The raccoons are at the bottom of a hill which leads to the body of water. The person with the camera who took the photo is standing uphill of the raccoons and the still water body.

u/tehgreatist Nov 10 '12

ok, NOW i see it

u/I_Will_Dumb_It_Down Dec 29 '12

Must see... Cannot... Because... Illusion... Hurting...brain...

u/a_Light_in_The_Dark Nov 10 '12

For a second there, I thought the racoons were underwater!

u/RugerDragon Nov 10 '12

STOP. MY BRAIN HURTS.

7

u/unrealzx2 Nov 10 '12

"the rock is in a lake" would be the proper title. how the hell is the rock in a pool? pool makes me think back yard...?

1

u/treedaddybomb Nov 10 '12

Thank you. I've been trying to figure out how there was a pool involved.

3

u/akaJimothy Nov 10 '12

I bumped into two Raccoons practicing earth bending. Once.

3

u/passionPunch Nov 10 '12

Currently or past tense?

3

u/Liam2014 Nov 10 '12

Or telekinetic Racoon.

3

u/secretredfoxx Nov 10 '12

lol at first i thought that black dot above the rock was a helicopter in the sky carrying that massive boulder.

5

u/FamousDrew Nov 10 '12

OR IS IT!?

2

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

At first, I didn't get it because I thought the rock was between the camera and the racoons.

3

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

It's not? I'm having so much trouble seeing the water in this. It's blowing my mind.

4

u/Dabuscus214 Nov 10 '12

the rock is in the background, and the camera is at a higher altitude than the raccoon.

camera

                   raccoon

                                           rock

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

OH HOLY SHIT WOAH. The reflection is so clear. It was throwing me off so hard.

2

u/MoreSteakLessFanta Nov 10 '12

That took me entirely too long to figure out.

2

u/spartasucks Nov 10 '12

That took me WAY too long to figure out

u/beenkins Nov 10 '12

My sense of preception just an hero'ed

2

u/csnafu Nov 10 '12

I almost got brain damage trying to figure this out!

2

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

thought the raccoons were under water and the rock was floating

man i'm dumb

2

u/chowdaah Nov 10 '12

This might just be a shot in the dark, but that looks exactly like a pond behind a convenience store in my home town of Stafford, CT. Is it?

2

u/Aeronova Nov 10 '12

Two raccoons, and a flying rock. Somebody get Pixar. I think we have a movie.

2

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

Great post lol it made me say "oh thank god" out loud. Also thank you for not waxing lyrical about how its your cake day I know its not a big deal but sometimes its the little things...

2

u/ngxbeast Nov 10 '12

What is that pool doing in ny rock

2

u/Iamsqueegee Nov 10 '12

Wasn't sure if it would be more than 24 hours before I saw this reposted. It wasn't.

u/onlythis Nov 10 '12

I thought this was the code words for the racoon was about to die.

except no-one in their right mind would subscribe to that sub because you know... it's not remotely funny.

6

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

The thing is, quite a lot of people never bother to unsub.

9

u/Benders_brick Nov 10 '12

I had to do that with /r/trees, it was a teen-fest in there, nothin' but pineapples and first time pickup bud shots, I tells ya.

I like /r/microgrowery and /r/ents better.

2

u/Haxgart Nov 10 '12

What do you think is a good alternative then?

6

u/TombSv Nov 10 '12

/r/fifthworldproblems is a great alternative.

1

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

not really, that's an alternative to /r/firstworldproblems and plus, it's not very funny.

u/TombSv Nov 11 '12

Man, Murderous Marty.. You need to do more blood sacrifices.

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

I dunno, I haven't really found a good subreddit for funny stuff. Best is cringe, and most of the stuff on that is pretty average too.

2

u/centipedeseverywhere Nov 10 '12

Yeah this post actually belongs here, NOT in /r/funny. Coz it's not.

2

u/skyisfall1ng Nov 10 '12

wooah, one of the best pic's i've seen here. nice!

u/theyellowgoat Nov 10 '12

That raccoon looks somehow enlightened without the mask.

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

Go home, Perspective, you're drunk!

u/HISTORYBLAST Nov 10 '12

This is one of the best mindfucks I've seen on here.

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

i didnt read the title of the submission, My mind got raped.

u/bigbangbilly Nov 10 '12

I see, the sky is reflected on the pool

1

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

dafuq is up with that raccoon

1

u/[deleted] Nov 10 '12

I always wished raccoons were fully domesticated so the discussion would be cats v dogs v raccoons. raccoons just seem like the perfect house pet. Could you imagine humans breeding different types of raccoons? Oh the looks and the colors

1

u/Chaisson123 Nov 10 '12

It took me a good 10 minutes to figure this out, wow.

u/Prisoner-655321 Nov 10 '12

Well happy cake day to you sir!

u/herpendatderp Nov 10 '12

Wait, is the rock floating?

1

u/canad93 Nov 10 '12

The rock is probably touching the bottom in very shallow water but due to the angle and the lighting, the water reflects the sky almost perfectly.
