  1. Most of these pictures were obviously taken at Burning Man The place could warrant an entire section due to the wild and weird things which appear commonplace there.

  2. This is deifinitely a kite…you can see the strings, and the people in the photographs are either:

    Pic 1) Posing in that spot because that kite is there.

    Pic 2) Pointing their fingers at the kite.

    Pic 3) Laying there because of the kite and looking up and smiling at it.

    Pic 4) Pretending to try to grab it.

    Anyone who can’t see how obvious this is, you’re not being perceptive.

  3. if you open each picture and look at them closely, you can actually see the strings in EVERY one. To be honest, I was disappointed to realize it was just a kite.

  4. I absolutely love this kite. I was a burningman this year )'( and the owner was pointing at me and another guy as we were having a martial arts fight at sunset. Sadly i did not get any of the pictures to share. :(
    But, for the sake of the article, this is a kite and nota google feature. The girl in the last photo is pointing to it!

  5. does anyone other than Wendel know the meaning of sarcasm? Jesus christ, are you all five years old?

  6. This is DEFINITELY a kite because of 3 reasons:

    1) mouse cursors are white not black

    2) mouse cursors point up not down

    3) how obvious are the strings!

    Whoever it was that told you this is not a kite is a total doofus.

  7. it is obvious, it is a kite, maybe at the first 2 pictures u couldn´t see lines, but look carefully at picture number 3, u can see that it is kinda transparent, it has lines and it has little white drops where the string is attached

  8. Hey nimrods, you are all wrong. Do any of you indoor geeks know what happens outside of your cubicle or how to fly a real kite? I don’t mean a single line box kite from Wal-Mart for 5.95. This is Obviously a Quad Line 2 handle kite, not some virtual paint shop job, duh…

  9. All but the last two were definitely taken out at Black Rock City. These kites are amazing! I was gifted a kite from the camp that has & makes these, a camp full of professional kite flyers. They have some CRAZY kites, this one included and some of the things they can do with the stunt kites, WOW!

  10. Whas’s wrong with you guys. The idea behind is awesome. Thats something what creats a digital/analog combination.. Nice!

  11. You have got to be kidding me – the guy was bloody joking of course it is a f en kite.. damn to this day I cannot believe how god damn dumb people are.

  12. Can anyone explain to me why it is necessary to badmouth or negatively reply? “get a life people”… “Hey nimrods, you are all wrong. Do any of you indoor geeks know what happens outside of your cubicle or how to fly a real kite? I don’t mean a single line box kite from Wal-Mart for 5.95.

    WELL… what’s wrong with YOU GUYS? You got anything nice to say about anybody that is NOT YOU? Of course YOU’RE BETTER than everyone else! YOU DON’T NEED TO RUB IT IN!!

    ………………FAIL!!………………

  13. oh my gosh, they said it was a cursor on google earth. it’s a joke, meaning it’s a real cursor from google earth.. jees.

  14. Hey People , its a kite In the first picture u can see the shadow of the kite right infront of the women posing !! Cool HUH

    1. Lmao… fail, you know you can stick a shadow into the picture much easier than you can photoshop the mouse in

    1. of course they’re all facing the camera, these aren’t candid shots, they were planned out and the photographer picked the right angle for the picture

  15. you spelt red wrong even though your an adult and it obvious that it is a kite, as you can see the strings. not an illusion at all. should be taken off the site.

  16. In the third picture you could see the strings on the right hand side of the cursor, try zooming in the picture if you still cant see it!!!!

    1. “spelt” is ok though mainly used in the UK. “your” instead of “you’re” is NOT ok!

  17. I have one more clue! look more carefull and you will see people who is controling kite! (2nd picture)
