rope is probably made of flexible but hard material most likely metal

“And fishing line is the string they put on fishing rods.”

This just can’t be correct.

Hey anoymous about the third picture having his hair astrew, He probably has gel in it?
And fishing line is the string they put on fishing rods. It’s Really hard to see and underwater it’s invisible. Thats how fishes get the bait, They dont see the fishing wire and think its normal food

The Water Images
how to achieve:

1)Empty a swimming pool so it is absolutely dry.

2)Purchase a large glass panel which is thick enough to hold an inch of water.

3)Place the glass over the empty pool.

4)Cover the top of the glass with and inch of water.

5)Go into dry part of pool with camera man.

6)TAKE PHOTOS!!!!

H.T.Dragon-
"The first one I don't know about, but maybe he put glue on his feet? That one I'm really curious about...

The second one I think he's really just underwater. Maybe he's got weights attached to him? He also is probably hiding an oxygen mask somewhere that he uses to breathe in between shots.

The third one's obvious: he's just floating face down in water.

The fourth one is just like the second one, but this one looks like the guy is holding his breath.

The fifth one is a bit confusing...I'd just have to guess that the rope's made out ofa heavy material so it doesn't float.

The sixth one is easy, he's just on a ladder in shallow water.

For the seventh one, he's probably standing on a rock or a floatation device. Or maybe the concrete structure is bigger than it looks, and he's just standing on a submerged part of it.

In the rest, I'd guess that the rope is made out of metal and what we see as the floor is really the cieling. I'd also guess the chair was glued to the rope."

LOL u forget on the third one that if he was just simply lying face down in water his hair would be astrew.

I’m not certain how all of the pictures featuring Philippe Ramette were done, but the chair statues are quite simple. The “rope” that was used in the art are made of bronze. Yes, this is a fact.
