Photo of little girl ‘sinking into the ground’ leaves people baffled

A father took to Reddit to share a “strange” photo of his daughter. When he took it, he had no idea the photo – along with the post – would go viral.

In fact, the photo had been taken some years ago by his wife and he only stumbled upon it while sorting the images from all his devices.

Looking at the photo, is seems like the young girl is stuck in concrete or as though she disappears into a paved street.

Captioned: “My daughter, where’s the rest of her?! Ohh I see, do you?” the post caused a stir and, inspiring thousands of comments from people who tried to figured out the optical illusion.

“I’ve stared at this for minutes now and I’m sure she’s half buried,” one commenter joked, while others joined in, likening it to a “teleporter malfunction” or saying it’s “next-level grounding.”

“This one’s genuinely baffling even when you zoom in,” someone else commented.

“You took ‘grounding your kids’ to a whole other level,” another person added.

Those who managed to figure out the mystery behind the photo admitted it took them a while to do it.

“Part of the reason it’s so good is that the title implies that there’s a ‘rest of her’ to be seen, so we’re not expecting half of her body to be completely concealed, we’re expecting her to blend in,” a person wrote.

The girl’s lower body is actually hidden behind a wall, but the wall’s design blends so seamlessly with the driveway she’s on that it creates an illusion.

After going through the comments his post generated, the girl’s dad provided fellow redditors with an explanation. “Grass pavement is at the wall eight, then the road where my daughter is standing is around 1 mt lower than the grass pavement, where she’s resting her arm,” he posted.

Because the photo is so incredibly perplexing, people have called it the ‘single greatest confusing perspective I’ve seen so far.’

Does this photo make your brain hurt?
