Timo Johann found this cool Google Earth satellite photo. I don't speak French, but these buildings look extremely similar to some alphabet letters, don't they? Could it only be a coincidence? I really doubt it, they represent letters obviously. So, if anyone here knows French, help us and translate the meaning? Or did we all fall under illusion, and there is no hidden message. Every now and then someone finds strange Google Earth location, and mails it to me. I post only the best, and those that have anything to do with optical illusions. I still have few hundred submitted illusions in my mailbox, so don't worry if you don't see you rsubmission posted yet.
no more google earth stuff please!!! everything else is good though!

It looks like l'doibe. It's not French, but it looks like it's attempting to be a French word. The apostrophe makes me think it's intentional.

hey anonymous from 2:59, you should learn to spell, and maybe try getting out of Nebraska sometime...could do wonders for you.

I speak some French, but recognize nothing other than what looks like "voile" which means board as in wind sailing board (plance à voile). Other than that it looks like the architect was being clever.

I speak french, this is not a word its just some letters maked with buildings... this mean nothing in french
I searched "doibe" on Google and found several pages with the word in different languages, a few of them talking about an astronaut named "Takao Doibe."
http://mv.lycaeum.org/anagrams/PARALINGUA.cgi?article=Etoiwoy I'm not sure what language that is, but it has a translator at the bottom of the page and I tried entering "doule ras doibe idebrene," which came up with "Idle debonair, obese rude." or "Bloodied needier abuser."
So I still have no idea what the hell it means. Might not be anything.

it looks like the middle section says doibe, ie. doobi, mabey the French are telling the world to go smoke a joint.

It is obviously meant to show something but it seems to be done very poorly. Again, the Google Earth Illusion are rather boring, you would do better not to post them unless you have nothing else

Ho it's funny ! i recognize one place where i have living for 2 years. the city is Levallois-Perret , dpt 92:Haut-de-seine. It's close to the street Cognacq-Jay. And i have never heard about a signification about those buildings view by satellite.
you can take a look online here... for those of us who are not lucky enough to have google earth on out home machine.

the third line looks like it might say 'diobe'. not too sure if that is right or even french tho...

oooook well i typed in the coordinates and put it in google earth. uhhhh that isnt what the picture looks like it's just like forest kinda looking not the same huh???????????

The letters are hard to distinguish.. if you post what the letters are, I'll tell you what it means in French.
s427
First identify the letters, THEN translate into english.
So, what are the letters ?
The last ones may be "I", "B" and "E". The rest looks just like random shapes to me.
I speak french, but I see no meaning in this picture.
Maybe it's the French architect's name. Or its an alien language and the French are telling them that they are aliens too.

I'm french canadian. Sorry, no meaning at all !!
Elliexx ANIMALS ROCK!! Abixx's friend!
kl buildings but... err... no hidden meaning. y didnt they make the buildings into letters that actually MAKE A WORD - even if its french!!
Anonymous
It's not really in Paris, its on the limit between Levallois and Neuilly, northwest of Paris. Doesn't seem to mean anything. I think some people are easily scared.

wow that is real cool the last line looks like it says somthing like "dOIBE" how do these people find this stuff in google
Anonymous
I'm not completely fluent in French, but I do speak quite a bit, and I don't think there's any hidden words. :) Still, that's pretty cool.
It seems almost like the architect tried to say something (of which the meaning is lost to us now), but then his/her plan got ruined by something practical like the structural soundness of the building, need for more office space, etc. Maybe the guy's name was Voiiz, but they decided to build a parking garage between the o and the i. It would be hard to tell without knowing the date that each building was designed, because some buildings could have come later without the later architect even being aware of the lettering scheme.

First of all, we should remark there is an I at the begining of the second "line", so it is not written DOIBE but IDOIBE. Then, it is quite sure that de B is in fact an E : it seems that a part of the building has been constructed later than the rest of the building. So we have IDOIEE. Then, I'm not sure, but I think the D is in fact a J : it apeers to be a D only because of the bad perspective. Tha makes we have IJOIEE.
In this stays a real french word : JOIE (happiness).
But what about the rest?! After reflection, I'm not sor sure there's an I at the beginning of the second line. Anyway...

I agree the 32 proposition (Val d'Oise = no tag). Val d'Oise is a place near Paris.

Pokeperson
I see a pokeball in every google earth illuosion... Pardon my greek
O.o
you can really see a pokeball
"VOALA L'DOIBE COOTOC"
"VCAI% IDOIEE =OOTOC"
"VOAL'O I DO I BE =DDOTOC"
"VOALO I D Q I B E CODOTOC"
"VOOLO IDOIBE COOOTOC"
or, if you want a real stretch...
"O, ALA-I, DO I BE COOT? OC..."
(oh, Alai, do i be cute? OK...")
(or, alternatively, "oh, Alai, dye me a bandicoot, OK?")
no, i dont think this says anything in French (or German, Hindi, English, Arabic, Gaelic, Latin, Pig Latin, Oppish, Japanese, Mandarin, Spanish, Afrikaans, Solomon Islands Pidgin, Ancient Egyptian, Koori, Alkitab, Greek, Korean, Malay, Russian, Sinhalese, Swedish, Tamil, Vietnamese or any other language for that matter)
At first it looks so obvious... but maybe it really was an accident.

letters in french are the same as in english except the french use accents u ignorant boobs! I think if it was on purpose then it would be an illusion to make us think there was a secret hidden message in it or perhaps it IS a message in some secret alien laguage.....

i dunno , but maybe the letters aren't in the right order, or even upside down. So i'm trying to take each letter then put it together again, maybe, maybe not lol. Alternatively it could be the architects name, but built up, or, on the other hand just pure coincidence lol
Anonymous
so after getting each individual letter I, and only I got quite a few different sets but the one that i first saw and seemed to me to be right i got
V c h I j ‘I b e o = c d o d t o c
so i don't speak french, and it might not even be in french but, you're welcome to try and figure it out, the letters might even have numerical value with a secret number, or date, who knows.

it says "we should bath more."
or
(if read upside down) "women dont need razors"

Hey can you post the coordinates of Google Earth images?
Thanks.
Nothing hidden there... dOIBE??? That's no French believe me! It still looks nice.
@anonymus from 3:05 PM
when you klick on the photo you can read the coordinates.
what does it say??? or rather what are the letters
Maybe it's the last name of the person who designed the buildings?
*YAWN* BORING!!!!!
it says voila something.
no more google earth stuff please!!!
everything else is good though!

I'm Eng/fre bilingual. i could translate but it's hard to actual maker out the individual characters. Can anyone make them out?
It is one of the exestential questions posed by the buildings themselves. "do I Be"
VOULEZ-VOUS COUCHEZ-AVEC MOI?
Shauzia was rude. I think it's fascinating.

I'm not a canadian french and don't speak french but I see the authors of this idea just lead you by the nose :)
Top row: possibly a V on the left, followed by an O ?
Middle row: dOIBE ?
Bottom row: no identifiable letters except -perhaps- C on the right.
I'm a Frenchman, and I can tell you it has no meaning.
But yes, it looks odd !
32: frans: Val d'Oise is an interesting hypothesis
16: L' "Empereur": salut ! Watch it: "voile" means "sail" (or "veil").
5: "Anonymous", or "some guy from Nebraska" .Tired, pathetic, and xenophobic humour. I suggest you grow up.
42: DOLLARBILL: non merci ! But thanks for the invitation
Upside-down it says "3810" with some other squiggles. About as good an interpretation as any other. Now if only we knew what 3810 means in French?
It OBVIOUSLY says something in an alien language that translates to something like, "We will destroy all of you"
