Forget about Godzilla, this Meag-Bug was recently discovered using Google Maps. Look at the size of it! It will take on the world as we speek. Hehe, Sabine Wieluch and David Horm submitted this recently, and you can see it for your self if you point your Google Maps to this geographic position: 48.857635, 10.205424 and 0.001193,0.005322 (Germany). First one that locates it, and posts the Google Maps link in comments, winns! What’s your explanation? I beleive that this image isn’t satellite one, but made with airoplane (google maps usually have High-Res photos taken from planes). In my opinnion, this bug is infact quite little, but was stuck on plane’s camera lense. Any other opinnions? For more interesting Google Earth illusions, visit our Google Earth Category.
I just got it, but I believe it’s impossible to paste a link, because google earth is a program that you load onto your computer, unlike google maps which appears in your internet browser.
That is really cool. I had no idea the google earth images were taken out of planes–I was thinking satellites. Hm.
they r taken out of satellites silly! just this one is’nt it’s a fake!
A lot of the pictures are taken from panes around here.. our farm and some of are neighbors have plane shots and some neighbors don’t, and you can tell the difference between the two.
Here’s the link:
Google Maps Link
What do I win? (I’m guessing there is nothing and you just wanted someone to find the link for you)
Link here.
Win?

Hehe, funny thing. :)

That’s the giant scale-model landscape built by the Chinese Army in the middle of the desert, the replica of the entire region of Aksai Chin, occupied by China since their war with India in 1962. It’s huge (700 by 900 meters) and shows every feature from that area.
What hasn’t been revealed is its function, which is why it’s the subject of so much discussion.
hi ive found the most unusual picture on google earth aslo print screened it its on the istanbul bogaz bridge sort of nasty ghost picture dont know what it looks like tho how bout add me and il send da pik to you kop3k@hotmail.com ty =)
Really crazy….
there’s a bug on the satelite lense
on google earth type hulen, germany into the ‘fly to’ search…zoom quite close and around hat area is the bug! ARGH!!!
“genius” was so smart that he neglected to find in the description of illusion that it was explained and every1 knew that.
you guys, my google earth must be newer, cause i found the spot, but there is a new pic there, so there’s no bug
hahaha, yeah i saw this story in cnet’s buzz out loud, its seems that this part of the world they took from a printed air photo, and when they scanned it, a bug got in the scanner
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
go on google earth, fly to hulen germany, then go west and you will see a spot where the field is a strange colour…THATS WHERE THE BUG USED TO BE! stupid idiots, why take it away… :(
You dolts! Isn’t it so obvious? The person who sent the pic obviously went on this place on Google Earth, and a bug crawled over his computer screen! Cockroaches did that to me more than once!
yeh its obvious that the bug was on the camera lenses – or the plane window. also its high quality with the bug, just not with the rest of the pic.
i just found it on google earth ut it has been reoved
If you type in giant_insect in the fly to search menu it will take you to where the bug used to be … google put a pic of it back on for ya!
Looking at this, I see two or three people crossing the street casting a shadow behind them. Is it really a bug or is it only supposed to look like a bug?
ummm there isnt even a bug there when i go to the spot on google earth or when i click on those links down below…
come on man its a fly on the satilitte it so obvious ….haha
lie!!!!!!!checked it myself!!!!!!!!its a bog on the computer screen
this is sort of offtopic, buy look at the midway islands on google maps its weird
It’s not there anymore, I think

Optically, the bug CANNOT be on the lens of the camera that was in the plane… Otherwise it would be completely blurred !
It must have been on the film itself, or on the window of the scanner that was used to digitize the photo.

Itz Gone!!!
the only thing you need to type in is 48.857635, 10.205424. it will bring you right to it, adn there will be a little camera adn if you click on it it will show you that picture.
haha! That’s hilarious….there’s just like, a bug there, right in the middle of everything. hahaha!!!
i think it happend, while developing the photo.
greetings from germany.
Google Earth is updated every 6 months so some things have disappeared. Also check out Devil’s Tower in Wyoming.
lol if you go to the coordinates it doesnt have it but it has a link to the pic. i would say someones just put the pic on there but the pic is actually a bug on someones comp screen and they took a pic of it
genius, a bug on the satalite ens? a bug in space? great fantasy
anonymous 32, u see on the coordinates it has been removed…
It’s just a bug on his computer monitor!
off topic but look at hilo for a face im surpised nobody notice this befor
SO STUPID! They zoomed in. It was NOT stuck to the camera lens, cuz I looked, and O M G! Nothing until you zoom in, GOD! So many idiots in this world! May I go to Mars?
it isn’t there anymore!!!
but the picture is also more colorfull in my google earth.
i think they’ve made a new picture…
that’s a shame…
i think it was just on the screen of the computer but still kwl
thats just a bug stuck at the lens of the camera used to take pictures of google earth you see its like squashed there’s like a poop on its butt
crap, they fixed it… :-( its not there any more.
Bug was fixed :)
I swear I found it!! someone took the picture with a camera of there computer while there was a bug on it!!!!
clear the runway!-bugzilla is taxi-ing and ready for takeoff-lol
i hope the plane that took this pic didnt get in its way, haha
Dude! The bug is gone nau!
Wow. . . it give something isn’t it [:
You can obiviosly tell that tat they blew up a picture of google map on there computer, took a bug, and put it on the computer screen
if it was a bug on the screen then it would be less or u would see black around the monitor
Thats a earwig zoomed up or photoshoped because if u look at it now that hole is gone
Its obviously just an earwig crawling on the screen!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH IT’S BUGZILLA! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
I think it was on the camera as they took that google earth picture. Anyone agree?
