Hehe this one’s hilarious! Reminds me of one of our previous water-walking illusions. You’ll find it if you browse our archives. Can you guess how this photo was taken? Does she really has some superpowers? Or… ? Additionally our forum is almost done! I’m gonna need some moderators that I could highly trust. Do you think you qualify as one? Drop me an email if you think you’re ready for the position. Also, Few more games added. Be sure to check Gold Miner Vegas and World Domination in our Games section. As well as these two too-cool games for Mac: Cybermice Party and Titan Attacks. They can be found in our Mac Games section. Enjoy!

oaky, hold a second, ive flipped the image upside down and all, but i still dont get it
i DONT really CARE how or why she looks like shes walking on water, guys
i actually read a sign in a room that said “NEXT TIME YoU THINK YOU’RE PERFECT, TRY WALKING ON WATER!”…hahahah rofl
I was in our local Christian book store just last year, and I was in the section where they have things for cars, like bumper stickers and things like that. There were some liscense plate frames that had that very same message on them. I liked it so much, I decided to use it as part of my email signature.
That would be just the thing to say to somebody who thinks they can do no wrong. (“Well, you think you’re so perfect? Let’s see you walk on water!”)
somebody is holding her up from underneath! look at her feet. somebodies hands are there and there is a body in the water. that proofs she is being held up!!!
While I am neither a photographer or a swimmer I have noticed a few things about this photo tht I believe would stop some of your ideas! One Her mouth is open! Thus endeing the upside down debate.(tho I was leaning that way myself) there seems to be a hand (or shamu’s fin lol) holding onto her back foot. also I’ve never seen a diver enter the water with their arms ope that is something you do for balance! balance is not needed when diving! one last thing she could be in the east somewhere…notice the gold jewlery on her head!!!
looks like a gymnast shot being posted on a pool of water, why are there numerous circular waves if she hasnt even hit the water yet?
lol…its just plexiglass under her, like criss angel…
glass covered with about an inch of water. then walk across. WOW
she is just doing some kind if jump into the water
its some sort of technique
I agree w/ zalo
COME ON GUES ITS OVEES SHE JUMPD IM WITH BOBBOBBO
now thts cool!!
sally xxxxxx
EVERYONE!!!!!!!!
Some magicians use this optical illusion as well. These is a clear glass platform in the water. At the right angle, the platform becomes invisible.

guys, shes not standing on anything, ive done this myself. if you notice theres a big dip where shes at. its a wave trick, if you stand in the center of an enclosed area with water (preferably round shaped) and you stand straight and bounce up and down in a steady rhythem, cant break it, then you create waves, whats most likely she did was jump out of rhythem at the last second causing such an effect, though as to why she wanted to go through so much trouble is beyond me…
Obviously she is just jumping in and the photographer managed to catch it at the exact right moment making the effect of *walking on water*

She’s probably walking on pegs or a platform that’s just below the surface.
Lots of post, simple answer…
she is under water. The picture is flipped upside down
for me theres 3 possibilities…
1. walking on a glass thing below the surface
2. jumping and taking a picture
3. Isn’t it extremely likely that its just a shallow area?
Most of you people are fucking stupid. I mean, how can so many of you be so fucking dumb. I hope none of you reproduce.
Synchronized swimming. The shadow under her is her teammates who “lifted” her out of the water. It’s a fucking stunt.
You morons talking about walking on boards, and that she is actually underwater, and the picture is upside down. Jesus Christ, you all are idiots.
She is really underwater! This has happened many times since the cameras invention. You just need the photographer with camera in the right place along with the right ISO and F-Stop settings with high speed film and the right lighting and shadows. Good photographers can do this all day long.
Um, yeah, that’s why you can see the water dripping downward off her btw her legs and off the front calf.
Intelligent people can see this all day long.
She’s upside down. Those “drops” from her legs suddenly become bubbles if you invert the picture.
she is just jumping into the water why is that an illousion
Jumped off a diving board and as she hit the water the picture was taken
Actually, her teammates are under water holding her feet. Ive seen this done at sychro competition. Still really cool though.
i think that they have filmed somebody jumping in, then filmed her jumping in seconds later( explaining her leg posture and figure underneath ). they have they slowed down they speed and printed it out as a still shot.
i think her teamates are underwater, or she is jumping and they taped her so they could get a picture out of it.
It a a board underneath her like movies
either her teamates are under water or there is a board underwater
she is being dropped or she dived in a cool way, see how some of the water around her is concave
She is a synchronized swimmer. She swam from the bottom up and propelled herself out of the water and the photog was just right on the shutter.
If you look closer under, beneath the girl underwater have something, like human. That lift up the gilr and the girl is for some moment like that pistion. the picture is taken in the right moment.
Synchronized swimming.nose plug and outfit match.as does pool type.her team are beneath her,case closed,yourealldumb
shes underwater. look upside down. whats the roof is really the bottom of the pool.
