By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/when-google-maps-indulges-20-creepy-glitches.htmlKyle Williams has a special relationship with Google Maps. He likes to find glitches — crazy images that the program gives out. It all started a few years ago when Kyle was trying to find a record store in France. He switched to Google Street View to "wander" through the streets of the city, and it was there that he noticed the first masterpiece of Photo Spheres — 360-degree photos that users upload to maps. He came across a creepy human hybrid — a girl sitting on the beach had one leg sticking out of her chest for some reason!
That first glitch Kyle discovered.
It turned out that the beaches are the perfect place for these crazy finds.
There you can always find people who have only half of their body left, who have grown additional limbs, or simply disappearing into the sand.
According to Kyle, he likes beaches because the sandy background is more neutral and when the object with distortion is in the center, it looks more like art than a mistake.
Although such glitches are more common in busy places with a lot of people, Williams says that a cluttered image makes it difficult to find an interesting frame.
