16 Complicated Points-Of-View That Will Defeat The Visual Cortex Of Your Brain

Why does the universe have to complicate things like this?

Welcome to this week's roundup of the most head-scratching photos we found scouring Reddit's r/confusingperspective. Before we get into this week's top contenders, can you figure out this pic from last week that most people couldn't?:

Tall building under construction in a city, with scaffolding visible. Foreground includes rooftops and utility poles

1. Okay, moving on to this week! Let's start it off with this pillar that appears to be free-floating like the building above:

A makeshift stand is created using wooden blocks and a metal sheet to support a metal frame structure on a stone wall. No persons are present in the image

2. Can you figure out why it looks like this dog's head got removed and attached to the side of its body?:

A dog lies on its back with its legs bent in an unusual position on a patterned surface

3. What about this chair which appears to be standing upright with three legs?:

White plastic chair in front of a corrugated metal wall, placed on a concrete floor

4. This person is NOT wearing a penguin suit with a plastic bag over their head, so please explain what is going on:

Person sitting on a subway, wearing a Pingu costume covered by a plastic raincoat, and holding a matching bag. Another person stands next to them in casual clothing

5. This semi-truck appears to be moving an entire building, but it is not:

A large truck with a flatbed trailer parked in a residential area, with an apartment building in the background

6. If you can figure out how this dog scramble happened, please drop it in the comments:

A white fluffy dog is lying on its back, playfully showing its belly and paws, on a wooden floor

7. As one Reddit user asked: "Why does this raised walkway lead to a wall?":

A brick building with a covered walkway connecting to an upper floor entrance. Green bushes surround the area. No people are visible

8. Explain to us how on earth this shoe is not levitating:

A pair of slippers placed near a wooden beam and wall inside a sunlit room

9. And how is it possible this vehicle is not doing the same?:

Car in a parking lot at night appears to be floating above the ground

10. This giant cat. Give us answers:

Two black and white cats, one sitting upright and one lying down, are indoors on a rug near a wall with blue curtains

11. Interpret this cat photo that is not X-rated:

Cat sleeping under a blanket, next to a person's arm and chest

12. And how this dog is not standing upright with biceps:

The image shows the muscular back of a dog standing indoors with its head turned away, displaying well-defined muscles. A bag is seen in the background

13. If the left eye of this pooch does not confuse you, drop what is going on in the comments for the rest of us:

Close-up of a bulldog with a wrinkled face and closed eyes resting on a leather couch with a white blanket

14. Is this loaf blob REALLY a cat? How can you be sure?:

A cat is lying flat on a table, appearing relaxed. In the background, there are McDonald's paper bags and other various items

15. Does this piece of furniture have mirrors, or is it totally see-through?:

Black cabinet with a glass door and diamond-shaped patterns, placed on a tiled floor. A glass container filled with seashells is on top

16. And, finally, this one may be obvious up close, BUT FROM A DISTANCE, I think we can safely classify it as a confusingly head-turning perspective:

A person with long hair sits at a desk working on a computer with dual monitors, wearing a tank top, with a visible tattoo on their arm
