Michael Tulley sent in this new Jesus Illusion :) Along with the aerial photo below, he wrote: “I don’t know if you have seen this before, this is an aerial photograph from streetmap.co.uk. It shows the football ground of Crystal Palace FC in London, England. The image of Jesus appears in the wear and tear of the grass on the pitch! Regards, Michael.”

    i see something, but not so sure it is Jesus.

    maybe it is a ghost from some past baseball great that was taken from his prime. now he haunts the stadium search for his last record breaking home run.

    also it kinda looks like the queen from the Sex Pistols art God Save The Queen.

    could be anything!!

    Happy Friday!!

  2. Bravery Onions says:

    with much imagination i see an old man’s face. why are all these things supposed to look like jesus?

  3. Craig says:

    For one it’s a football (soccer ground) looks like jesus yes I can see it!

  4. anon says:

    that’d make sense if it was a baseball field, but it’s a football pitch.

  5. Frank says:

    That ain’t Jesus, man! That’s me…! No, it’s an airplane…. No, it’s

    plain grass.

  6. Lee says:

    Baseball?! My dear fellow, that’s a football ground…

  7. Carl C. says:

    Why is anything that resembles a humanoid face always interpreted as Jesus? Doesn’t he have better things to do with his time than create mystical oversized portraits of himself on the Earth’s landscape?

    Other than that, I think it kind of resembles the Mona Lisa

  8. Pembo says:

    It’s a football pitch, why would a baseball player haunt it?

  9. Grass man says:

    Looks like grass to me.

  10. mark says:

    Bart Simpson?

  11. porocido says:

    It’s satana!!!

  12. Michelle says:

    Looks like Jesus to me. That is pretty bizarre.

  13. rob says:

    thats pretty cool i see the jesus, someone had a good eye to spot that

  14. no says:

    Its The Mona Lisa

  15. Andrew says:

    I see Jesus. You have to look at it the right way though. If you look at it with the wrong light it looks really weird. Or, weirder than it already looks.

  16. ethan says:

    it looks like its been photoshopped. it still looks cool though.

    and its a football field and when i say football i mean soccer

  17. Mark says:

    I’m not seeing Jesus – Definately a face of somekind though – Maybe its the reason why Crystal Palace dont seem to have much luck! (Ric….Crystal Palace are a Football (Soccer) team in the English Championship league – similar to Norwich City but not as good! hehe)

    Keep up the illusions :D

  18. Kevin says:

    Checked google maps, certainly nothing similar

  19. ashley says:

    i think this is lame…it doesn’t even look like Jesus Christ and ric i’m sure its not a ghost. thats just stupid.

  20. tom says:

    “baseball great”??? euh

    This is the UK – hello! ;-) Baseball??? Be off with you! its soccer (dooh!) football!

  21. DisasterMaster says:

    Interesting, quite interesting. I just want to ask you this. Did you go through all the stadiums in the world in hopes of finding jeasus.

  22. Sarah Mooring says:

    Hmmm – unlikely to be a baseball great, given that Crystal Palace FC are an English football (“soccer”) club!

  23. to says:

    It’s a bit vague but IF you really see a white man with a beard, i tell you: Jesus was NOT a white man. Besides, it’s green, so maybe a lost Martian.. ;)

  24. Andy says:

    Looks more like the Mona Lisa…

  25. Elizabeth says:

    that is soo weird…
    I agree with the previous writer though – it could be anything.
    It might even be me….

  26. nick says:

    ur an idiot thats a football field

  27. Shtank says:

    Maybe Golden Palace will buy it for $1,000,000

  28. mayor says:

    dear ric, your ignorance is painful, crystal palace fc is a football club, or soccer team. the only baseball greats to visit that stadium, were cheering for a soccer team

  29. Spyder says:

    I’m trying to see it — is it supposed to be a profile of Jesus facing left?

  30. Rx Queen says:

    agreeing w/the guy “ric”
    not sure if thats jesus

  31. bowlero says:

    eerie. however it doesnt look perfect.

  32. Franklin lomax says:

    jesus lives

  33. Larsbot3000 says:

    Well, Ric, I agree with your assessment that it’s not Jesus, but baseball isn’t played at the football ground of Crystal Palace…

  34. ryan says:

    who said anything about baseball? it’s a football field.

  35. Tim says:

    No offense ric but jeez its clearly not a baseball field!

    I beleive in Jesus and this is a kickass illusion!

    Cud of been photoshoped but its still cool

    Keep up the neat illusions guys!

  36. JUDAS says:

    that is idiotic.

    My people killed him.

    JEW PRIDE.

    WOOOOO

  37. Arden says:

    I can C Jesus when its tiny, but when u C it up there ^^^ it looks like a lady, or a goat eye or the mona lisa…yea, i get alot ouf of it…..but not really Jesus

  38. purple21 says:

    IT IS JESUS!!!! I WILL STAND BY MY RELIGION NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE THINKS OR SAYS ABOUT ME AND MY FAITH!!!

  39. Mary says:

    I think it will go up for sale on eBay.

  40. Jargon says:

    Is Jesus winking at me?

  41. ron says:

    jesus? How do you know jesus looks like? do you ever met him?

  42. ellie says:

    i see it now…………………kinda

  43. Dave G says:

    Actually it’s Jesus from the Shroud of Turin.

    The field on Google maps is completely clear, although google maps has updated it’s images recently. I think some CPFC supporters believe Jesus plays for their team or their players have mesiah-like ability.

  44. toooooooom says:

    dude, i knew He was a football fan!!!!

  45. M 2 the H O says:

    lol,

    class
    :D

  46. M 2 the H O says:

    maybe its a heavenly sign that jesus supports england!!! well i believe in jesus so…
    GO ENGLAND!!!,
    but then again, maybe he is dissapointed that england lost the world cup?
    maybe next time guys!
    or maybe…..

    JESUS IS GONNA PLAY 4 ENGLAND!!!!!!!!!
    AND IS GONNA MAKE THAT STADIUM A STAIRWAY 2 HEAVEN 4 THE CLUBS HANGOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!
    GO JESUS

  47. whateva says:

    That is just odd

  48. Whateva says:

    I wounder if the matches there are always a draw considering Jesus is supposed to be a peace maker.

  49. Brian says:

    If it’s not jesus then it is Satan mocking jesus. Who else has the power to create there image on a feild. If it has or hasn’t been doctored then it shows us how his control is beyond our comprehension. Trust in him.

  50. Dave L says:

    A “testament” to the brain’s ability to see a face where there is none. I do see it, but is it Jesus?

  51. Someone says:

    What the hell? Look again, it’s neither Jesus nor Mona Lisa. IT’S JOHN LENNON!!!

  52. Jan V. says:

    It looks like Saddam Hussain, building weapons of mass destruction!

  53. Leonardo says:

    The biggest illusion here is that a lot of people see someone they’ve never actually met or have seen photos of.

    I’ve just watched the news and now I know for sure it’s…… Osama Bin-Laden.

  54. Joan S. says:

    When I compare I to photographs of Jesus, I definitely see a resemblance!

  55. Sudarsan says:

    It looks like Usama bin Laden. To many people, it looks like Jesus. Moral of the story: Usama bin Laden is a descendant of Jesus.

  56. Michael Tulley says:

    It is a genuine photo (not doctored by Photoshop or anything), I think one of the local papers in Croydon/South London ran with it a while back. You have to say it looks like Jesus don‘t you? Who would bother to look if I said it looks like Bert Smith from down the road!

  57. Mel says:

    Leonardo, there’s hundreds of photos of Jesus. Don’t be ignorant, ignorance and hard-headedness are the prime reason people renouncing their faith, and therefore the root of all problems in the world.

    No one in their right mind can deny seeing the face of our saviour. This miracle is just one in a long row of evidence that jesus is trying to tell us something.

    If you don’t see it you’re probably already under satan’s influence already.

    I will pray for you

  58. chris says:

    jesus is everywhere, and he likes sports

  59. warren cancilla (Culver city, California) says:

    Yes, if the photo is untouched, then there is a face there, but it looks to be closer to Robin Williams in Awakenings rather than Jesus. Why do People automatically jump to ‘Halelujah it’s jesus’ whenever a bearded face appears? Especially one as indistinct as this one.

  60. [M]ilt says:

    there isnt strong evidence thats jesus… besides. it could be caused by crazy men running around the field chasing ball till the grass turned orange..

  61. frankie says:

    some kinda!! but not looks at all!!!

  62. me says:

    i didn’t know jesus had a mustache. looks like anyone. could be jesus though. or the mona lisa. but the mona lisa doesn’t have a mustache either. or it could be a sign from the aliens. or God! or it could be….

  63. anna says:

    by the way, cameras wheren’t common until at least the 1800s, so there aren’t any photographs of Jesus. and the paintings you see of Jesus are the artist’s (usually western-isd) ideas of what He looked like. and, unfortunately, Jesus was a heritic in His day (think martin luther in catholic england around king henry 8′s rule)so there probably wouldn’t be any images of Him anyway.

    that’s not to say he wasn’t right.

  64. shy_stir says:

    That looks like some good grass and you all apparently have been smoking it. It’s Tommy Chong now find me Cheech and I will be impressed \m/(-_-)\m/

  65. ryan says:

    nuhh mate. I reakon its jesus. lol. baseball field… what was he thinking

  66. BibleGurl says:

    Here’s the scoop:

    1) If a human likeness shows up in a stain, grilled cheese sandwich, or football stadium and it looks like a woman with long hair, it’s supposed to be Mary. If it looks like a woman with long hair and a beard, it’s supposed to be Jesus. Those are the rules, no doubt set by the catholic church many years ago.

    2) Yes, John Lennon had long hair and a beard, as did many people in the 70′s, but he’s not as likely to pop his face into anything that’s not making money in perpetuity. And don’t say that it’s John too loudly or Yoko might sue the stadium.

    3) Everyone who thought Mel was seriously saying that there are photos of Jesus has fallen into the trap that Mel set for them. Apparently it’s funny to say stupid things pretending to be religious so that people think religious people are stupid.

    4) It’s true that nobody knows what Jesus looked like, except that he had a beard (which was torn out by Romans shortly before his crucifixion.) As human beings, our brains are hard-wired to find faces, even in unusual places. If that face happens to have a beard, it might as well be ascribed to such an important person, but I can think of a hundred other things which remind me of Jesus besides a poorly-watered football pitch. Like motorcycle riding, and chasing chickens, and Diet Pepsi. (No, I’m serious.)

  67. nonty says:

    i thourt it was really silly

  68. Lea says:

    you must be told to see jesus

  69. joeyo says:

    what a cool jesus field…is it a catholic school?

  70. Fera Albi says:

    Now I see…
    It is Osama bin Laden lurkin’ in there!

  71. matanglawin says:

    We see what we WANT to see.

    So there…

  72. Lucide says:

    That’s not Jesus…

    IT’S PETER FRAMPTON MAN ! FRAMPTON !

  73. wiggly says:

    I don’t get it.

  74. Jade Bear says:

    *laughing*
    Hallelujah it’s a sign! *lauging still* It looks like my neighbor.

  75. Dude says:

    Looks like the Zig Zag man… man!

  76. nicholoas says:

    Um. Does anyone find Jesus really handsome? Is it weird/bad to be physically attracted to a diety?

  77. Alien says:

    Yeah, looks like a space alien if you look at it upside-down

  78. Person #5 says:

    I recognize it as homer simpson’s head more than anything… (with a splotch on his for head ><)

  79. BurninRubber says:

    couldn’t see it very well
