Stupid Random and Hilarious

5 looked hard to do

5 is def. photoshopped

I'm not even sure I could handle number 1 :)

some of the photos look edited and some of the actors maybe were assisted by a string or rope for the balnce

not hard when you can green screen out the supports

Oh, or maybe they're gymnasts, who can do this sort of thing. talk about cynics.

Or they are doing this on the ground with the camera from the ceiling.

where’s 1?

They're clearly leaning against a wall in 5. But still looks good. Now give us the alphabet.

Badjuk you can't see one that's hilarious every humans are one n one...lolz

Take into mind it might not be shopped, they could be lying on their sides on a white floor instead of it standing up.

one, it's not photoshopped, ANYONE can do this.

you lie on a blank floor... and just lie on your side and pose exactly the same way they did...

they're pictures taken from the ceiling or top.... DUH

if they are on the floor why do they hold eachother for 4 and 2?

If anyone wants the alphabet, try Pilobolus.

So if they are not photoshopped, and they are just lying on the floor, why is there a shadow under their feet that was clearly edited to get the white background? I've seen gymnastics, and all these are possible even standing up, but the "room" they are in is obviously chopped.

please, ya bunch of cynics. do you think you sound smart because you accuse these people of using visual tricks? you don't.

Alright, first off, maybe except this for what it is, gymnastics, people do this sort of thing all the time, are you telling me you've never seen in the circus where one man has his arm virtically in the air, with another mand who is holding his vertical arm in the air, with one hand as well, then they'll do something "crazy" like the base guy picks up one leg and makes a 90° agle as does the upside down guy. Also theres no way they could be on a blank floor becuase look, the shadows are under them. And who ever said number 5 is leaning against a wall, well if they were, there the lady's head and the other lady's legs would be even, and they're not, check it with a ruler or a piece of paper if you dont believe me. I'm not saying these couldn't have been photoshopped or anything, but I personally don't think they were. I've seen people do harder things than this...

I believe the laying on a floor... but they ARE photoshopped if thats the case... anyone notice the shadows? jeez, guess it takes someone who actually uses photoshop for work to point this out to you retards.

to the last poster r u stupid look at number 8 if ur theoryis true how did they create that depth stupid

these ppl are dancers, nd as a dancer, ive seen some pretty weird shyt, but this is all real

omg ffs

THIS IS ALL PHOTOSHOPPED GENIOUSES!! LOOK AT THE OBVIOUSLY FAKE SHADOWS, AND THE FACT THAT THERES NO POSSIBLE WAY 5 COULD BE DONE NO MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!!

Sorry to state the obvious, but some of you retards still apparently think this is real so it had to be done.

hasnt anyone noticed that in a few, the legs are merged together? I know for a fact that 7 is impossible, because it defies the laws of physics. and im not being cynical, im celbrating these peoples talents, because they most certanly fooled a few of you

Why are people so rude and conspiritorial, get out people go to a circus with more life experience you will be able to offer constructive comments and not just negitive or rude ones.

Look at teh folds in the clothes

oh wowwww.... everyone thinks they're soooo coool cuz they use the word
"'shopped". just fucking get over it and enjoy it as it was meant. it's just entertainment. get over urselves and whatever knowledge u may have in the graphics field.

WTF? Is this a debate??

I think the pics look cool. I don't care how they're done, or if they're photoshopped, or if they're lying on the floor, or standing up, or whatever!
Jeez, why's everyone gotta analyze everything???

Number one has a stiffy

;) these might be shopped, but they are certainly perfectly possible. i saw this with comments and showed my girlfriend. we blagged our friend aaron into helping and have imitated all but 0 (as u need 4 ppl), it was pretty much the same still. was a fun challenge :) hope this hasn't spoilt your fun too much 'shoppers' lol

The number 5 does not have to be photoshopped to get this. Most people look at it and forget depth of field. The person in the top part of the 5 is standing on the floor about 5-10 feet back and the camera is placed at an angle to connect the two bodies...have you never seen a photograph of someone holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa or the St. Louis Arch?

http://www.deepdepartures.com/wine%20holder.jpg

That shows how #7 could be done.

Anyway, they probably did this because it's a feat of strength and such. Because they're really good at balancing, because they're dancers/gymnasts/whatever. There would be no point to do this and just photoshop it. They're all real.

I think that these people could have made life alot easier if they had done Roman numerals. Plus, it could have saved half of the people who have posted here a busted neck vein. Yeah gotta love the Romans...easy numbers to pose to. Come to think of it, that may be how the Roman orgy first started.

1 was photoshopped! There's NO WAY anyone could do that!

You people are morons. You spend too much time in front of your computers. You need to get out. Visit a circus. Chinese acrobats probably teach this stuff to their 6-year-olds.

3 words, Center Of Balance

Ok. I got tired of reading...
I was looking for someone who had a real answer to Number 5.

Turn your head sideways.

One lady has her head on the floor.
The lower part of the five is on her stomach with her head and hands against a wall. They just turned it counter-clockwise.

A very simple solution.

In my opinion, the only thing photoshopped is the extra background. They were in front of a white backdrop with a lot of lighting. That's why the black clothes they are wearing aren't very black/contrasted.

Seven is very possible. Counter-balance is needed. (and a wall for his head would help too). Strenth of stomach neccessary as well.

Alphabet definitely wanted. ;)

I found this post and the comments recieved most amusing. And, sadly, for some, the number 1 would be hard to attempt. I also didn't realize how cynical we have become. When did we lose touch with appreciating art for art's sake. Though I did appreciate the technical dissection of the post. = )

If I posed for number one, some people would confuse it for zero. :)

Are you all really that board that you have to pick at this? fuck me GET AWAY FROM YOUR COMPUTERS!

No I'm not bored,please learn how to spell if you are going to be cynical.! I just think this is clever and enjoy it for what it is ,entertaining and accurate time telling.Get a life you ba humbug!

xlcnt stuff and thank u for your kindness in showing them

i dont care how they are done but they are really cool

Very enjoyable and original in its use.
Now,... what about letters as well?

http://billychasen.com/clock/

ok maybe the background was photoshoped out in order to make it run together better, but this IS possible.
What happened to "if you don't having anything nice to say don't say anything at all"

I wanna see letters too ^__^

hey guys, im in the circus and these are all possible but...some of them are fake, like 4 for instance, if that guys was basing for real he would have a better grip and his arms would be more towards her arse but they still look cool.

Who cares if it was photoshopped? It's still cool. Some one has made a clock of it. Have a look here:

http://billychasen.com/clock/

I want it as my screen saver! There must be someone clever that can make it happen!

It's amazing that people would argue over something like this. Don't y'all have better things to argue about, like maybe politics? Gimme a break! Morons!

these are all possible

all possible

Oh my - what entertainment - you guys are hysterical - who really cares how its done - you definitely got me laffing tho - i mean please analyze pictures - you must be really bored - well, have fun!! ps the clocks adorable - howeva it was dun!!!!!

I don't believe it! Yet I can attest that they are doing it freestanding, using now wires or green screens.

Lettered people: do not fail to visit

TYOGRAPHICA this week.

if you like this stuff.


Rowland

These people are in a commercial,and it shows them moving around and posing like this

you guys are all dumb whoever thinks its photoshopped... 5 is so easy to do... the right wall is actually the floor and the bottom is a wall that she is leaning against... dumbasses

Except few letters, all images are created with different standing position and added by some editor so this is not big deal but the idea is very good... and also i appreciate the clock too.. nice1 btw...

All you arse holes that think it is photo shopped are so stupid!!!

It's called centre of gravity and i no several year olds that can do that no problem!!!

i have made a screensaver froom the flash. it is just a simple program's output, better tries are appreciated :)

and i must say that they look cool :)
thanks to everybody!

I didnt think it was photoshopped either until I looked closer at 4 and 9 and if you look close you will see that there is no way the guy can support the girl with his hands that way. Im a cheerleading coach so part of my job is people lifting people and im telling you if they were lifting that entire weight by themselves thier hands would not be open and relaxed.

Also 5 could be achieved with a little depth depending on how big their studio was but, its probably PSed too.

Nicely done i think. Confirm got some sort of support. Notice number 2 and 7, The guy is leaning against something slanted. And 5 is quite clear that the upper girl is farther to the back than the bold guy, standing on something. 4, the girl is sitting on something, or else the body can't be that straight, it's illogic/gravityless. I guess that's why they used black cloths, it's a lot easier to manipulate and make a better shape of ... ex. the butt to look as if not sitting on something. Nice ly done anyway. applause.

It seems like everyone is caught up in the argument that some of these images have to be manipulated with Photoshop, that the ppl in the images are capable of doing the lifts 'as is', or that they are lying down and the camera is shooting from above. It seems to me that all of these techniques could have been used. Number 1 seems obvious. Just stand there. Number 5 however, requires some manipulation. Maybe the top of 5 is standing on something behind the bottom person. When the picutre is taken from the side and all traces of the object the person is standing on is removed (shopped), the result is what we see. There is more than one way to accomplish these images.

if you visit this site, someone put these images in clock format. its really cool.

that looks sooooooo hard. i go 2 gymnastics but we don,t do stuff like that!

HEY I CAN DO NUMBER 1! I AM THE BEST, I AM THE BEST! HAHAHAHA

Are you all fucking retarded???
This shit wasnt done on a blue screen or photoshopped. Your all over thinking this. It was done on a white floor, laying down!!!
God, you people are fucking stupid. Debating photoshopping techniques and shit. Get a life.

hello everyone! i helped create this fine art you see before you and belive me it was not easy because it is real and it did happen with no tricks involved. so why dont you all enjoy it like it was suppost to be enjoyed! Oh and fucking stop with your stupid uneducated guess on how we did it on a computer. IT'S REAL!!

These comments have been invaluable to me as is this whole site. I thank you for your comment.

As anyone who has ever been in an Escolta could testify 1 is quite easy if you do it every monday just go across the border to Mexico some monday and watch the sixth graders march so then you'll stop saying it's impossible and also I wish people would stop cursing like this it is very offensive and don't you realize that anyone could be reading including kids? honestly think about it. Because I disprove of most of these comments. Must everyone use the "F" word? Is it mandatory to get published, hmm?

"Great Job to you all" I wish I could do that.... I would be happy if I could do one..

I really don't care how it's done, It's fun, creative and simple in design. great expressions on some of the faces

I think it looks really cool, a good idea to make numbers out of ppl.

hey! who sais #5 was actually standed up? i can do that layed-down on the ground!!!!

very nice.
can i also see the alphabet please?

jwqlb

2,3,5 are wrong!
look at the girl's hair in six, why is it dropping to the left..??!

Oh... Can't you see that these are acrobats, contortionists, and you can see a shadow underneath them, so they are not photographed from the ceiling. the only photoshop that can be saw is the replacement of the original environment with the blank one. no hidden catch no strings attached...

you know how rude you guys are to eachother?

-'stupids, retards, idiots'-

WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO????

BE NICE PLEASE!!!

Hello? it was done lying down.(`.`)

The answer to 7

I'm sure the man doesn't have enough strength in his calves for the wine bottle sollution.


I'm sure this is how it was done:

if your going to whine about it, do it yourself! I thought it was prettey awesome. I ask those who whine about it this one question: Could you do that? If you answer yes, then well done and go do it yourself. If no, then stop having a go at other people.

Hey, leave these ppl alone. There are amazing gymnasts and stuff out there and i dont doubt they can do this. This isnt photoshopped, so give these people some credit!!

hee hee ur all freaking retards... This is some pretty awesome stuff and your just freakin arguing about it... i have to admit, some of these looked pretty hard, and addmittly could have been shopped or somthin, but who really gives a shit? im just going to take a look and get on with my life, not devote it to becoming obsessed with this picture!

hi

I did the whole alphabet! Called Love Letters.

In 1975. In London. Before photoshop.
The dancers are nude, so be warned.

You can see it here. Follow the link to me,

Rowland Scherman

Just go to Typographica

For the whole alphabet, please go to Typographica.
1975. Before there was photoshop.
All the letters are nude so be warned.

is it just me, or is everyone here envious because they can't do this kind of thing? i mean, these people could be talented, and you're just sitting there wasting your life looking for evidence that this was all phony. you all need to get laid!

Look at the asian woman in zero and compare her size to the other woman; now look at het in the number 5. see the diferance in size? I think that the poses are real but in SOME like in 5 they used things to stand on or just stand behinde or in front of eachother like in 2,6, and 8; The white however is shoped in.

They are not photoshoped, and they are NOT laying on the floor. look at the shadows. its hard to beieilve but in every picture there is a shadow, and you can tell the they are all upright. at least people with a BRAIN can tell.

OMG!! u all r effing retards sitting at ur computers fighting whether or not if its photoshopped or real or laying on the ground
dont u people have a life 2 get on with instead of fighting over that stuff, im sorry but my opion is that yall r gay so suck it up and stop fighting over the effing computer!!!!

is there anyway i can download the clock as a screensaver

I was gonna ask the same question.
If you please find a way so we can save this a screensaver, it would be awesome.

Screensaver over here link: http://rapidshare.com/files/26198382/ClockScreenSaver.exe.html

um, no offense but in 2, their legs actually just sort of... merge. hmmmm

Uhmm... shadows can be photoshopped too, you know

Yeah, #2 Looks Kinda Fishy.

Very Nice

good finding... creativity .... are you created this your own?

who cares if they are photoshopped
gymnastics, photoshop...IT DOESNT MATTER!
the only thing that matter is that they are here.

Good entertaining images, made me smile :)

The shots are very creative! (photoshopped or not) Who cares? Thanks for sharing!

I've been to photo studios where it is common to have a white cloth that is so long, that it is used as both "floor" and "backdrop" - they might have 12-18 feet hanging above the ground on a bar of some sort, and then the fabric is gently rounded at the floor and stretched on out onto the ground another 6-12 feet. Then they flood it with lights from above, both sides, and in front, and the "edge" where "wall" and "ground" fabric meet just blurs when it is photographed. Then of course they can crop the photo in the various software to cut out where the camera accidentally caught the ladder on the side of the "wall" or whatever.

That's what they did at Portrait Innovation for my son's photos and I could see the raw edges on the initial shots, before they went back to photoedit before printing.

As for the skills of the individuals - I noticed like the #7 the woman there looks like a very tiny and low-weight gal, holding herself out from the fella balancing her on his neck/back/shoulders while he tips forward. That has to be hard to do but if they are all trained athletic gymnastic type individuals, it could be done. But not with me at well over 100 pound normal weight...I would give the poor guy a hernia just LOOKING at me, let alone actually carrying me on that way, and of course, I'd just flop to the floor like a dead fish - no more able to extend my torso out in a straight in mid-air then I could fly to Mars!! ;-)

for the letters (you literate types) see:

watch out! they're all naked

Superb!
Can someone use it for display numbers in a webpage?

I love it, it is riginal and the flashclock too.

If you want more flashclocks there is also a website i usually visit:

http://freeflashclocks.com


Thanks for this creationg, it was well done.

you know. they all have to be standing on their feet. look at the way their clothes fall the way gravity pulls them. they're all standing. it's real.

Very good creativity indeed...

Bloody awsome nimble or what? Love too know how to set it as a screen saver!! If it can be turned into a screen saver I'd love to know how? Can anyone out there in PC world tell us how, if possible it would be appciated THANKS Phlan

I thank you!!!, the models, the re-touchers and the white floor. This work has given me a solid foundation for a campaign that 'we', my team and myself are working on.

I should be able to give some feedback from my client by next week Friday.

Pleaser hold thumbs. and thank you.

thanks nice work good job you are great
