I’m not exactly sure if Jerome Santucci discovered this interesting phenomenon, or did he just report what he learned. Apparently, if you observe Mount Rushmore from certain point, you can see that four former US presidents aren’t the only ones present.
Turning the photo for 90 degrees can help you visualize the fifth persona even better! Who would you say it represents? Think this was by accident or intentionally planned?
Anyway, here’s an interesting fact about Mount Rushmore: did you know that the four presidents carved into the granite were initially planned to be depicted from head to waist? Unfortunately, lack of funding forced construction to its end. Either way, the memorial still attracts approximately two million people annually! You can see Gutzon Borglum’s (man behind the idea) original plans by visiting this wikipedia page.

itsssss HOMER
It’s “The Thing” from Fantastic 4
I agree “the Thing”
Down below the monument, to the left, there’s a whitish area that looks something like a fawn’s head.
I see the face, but it doesn’t resemble anyone in particular.
The whole mountain is the profile of a face, Washington being the nose and under that is the chin. The shadowy area between lincoln and roosevelt is the eye.
I think you’re all on devil’s lettuce! I can only see the whole figure in much detail of one of the seven dwarfs if you tip it up the other way.
… and a camel’s face (maybe in sunglasses) at the bottom of the turned picture. Presi’s faces to the left. I think I’m gettin it – it’s a side profile – the nose next to the blue sky? The shadow area is an eye? He needs plastic surgery for that probuscus.
Homer Simpsom!!
ok to be honest it looks like a monkey once you find it
Doane Robinson, who was the Superintendent of the South Dakota State Historical Society, was the force behind Mt. Rushmore.
Gutzon Borglem, was the sculptor.
Doane Robinson, originally wanted to immortalize early explorers and Native American Chiefs, but that plan changed in order to get congressional support and funding for the project.
As such, the fifth face, carved into the mountain, is the face of a Native American Chief; this is hidden, in plan sight.
The whole Mt. Rushmore project is amazing!
King Kong.
It would be none of our present presidents. If it’s any president, it’s Ulysses S. Grant.
jfk
It is the face of God…
Why is that lady standing there? (ha, made you look!)
Holy crap its Evlis !!
It can’t be Reagan or Bush or Nixon or even JFK because it was done b4 their time. Don’t you people know your history? I think it is just the human brain making a face out of the faceless. I’m sure everyone has seen faces in tree bark or wood or on the front of cars. This is the same thing.
There is a sixth face.
Turn the second photo right and look all the way to the left of the mountain. What do you see? Plant of the Apes???
if you turn it left what does the whole picture look like!
I think it looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger
it’s a gorilla, we are on the planet of apes
I see two faces and one woman’s body. First is the skull at the top left of the second picture, then flip the second picture upside down and you see an angry revolutionary solider. Then the woman’s body is below Washington and it looks like a dress (the shadow) a great woman is behind every man right? going by the fact that Washington is jutting out and the dress is a shadow (technically behind him)
what about the alien face when looking straight on in the upper left corner of the mtn. Whats up with that?
Oh. That’s just Tony. He lives with Alfred.
@Jip YES. Tony also doesn’t like bushy eyebrow’d-Brits :3
It looks like some kind of Abbnormal figure so different it looks like omg.. Could it be NO!! President Obama??
When you say woman are you talking about the little girl looking figure? It almost looks like she is leaning forward to peck Washington on the cheek. I think she’s much more interesting than the fifth face.
The 90 degree profile is clearly Nixon!
I kind of saw an ape face when I first glanced. PLANET OF THE APES!
i’ve checked dozens posts earlier and didn’t see any comments regarding of what I am actually seeing there. very visible! it is a head and a face of an elephant. far right in the original photo. trunk is hanging down the crack in the mountain. there are some other photos that capture that elephant’s head shape too. look it up :) anyone else see it?
Looks like a bunch of stupid politicians to me, no matter what they look like.
All that is is a picture of the man in the mountain in New Hampshire before it collapsed. This is no where near mt Rushmore!
it looks like abraham lincoln
Carved into a sacred Indian mountain.
that is just the 4 faces sideways
Our family visited mt. Rushmore around 1970 and I took a photo of the faces, and a perfect picture showed up of a native American male from the shadows. It was as though it was part of the monument.
why,it’s me! I do belong there actually.
I will find that photo. It is wonderful.
We have built in image recognition
DNA to recognize faces.It makes us see faces in everything. biology dudes!
ITS CHUCK NORRIS!!!
Its Bush… The illuminati was the creators of the mountain and knew this time would come. They are slowly but surely taking over
It’s no wonder no one can see the 5th face, the picture is turned upside down! Just flip it over and the face becomes as clear as day, with mouth open, teeth & all (the eyes are squinting & either the forehead is furrowed or he is wearing a cap of some sort. He also has a mustash & a goatee.
John Quincy Adams
The is the great Indian chief, Sitting Bull memorialize in stone by Mother Nature. I need not say more. Look him up and you may come to believe that there’s no such thing as accident.
this sooooooooooo0000oo cool
P.S i was joking
