21 Times Google Street View Captured Pure Chaos

Funny google street view

I was looking at a map the other day. Just looking. And I saw a bear. In a river. Eating a salmon. It was amazing. I didn’t even have to leave my house. I just clicked a button and there was nature, happening. Google Street View is weird. It catches people in their most vulnerable moments, like falling into concrete.

Is that guy sinking? Is he okay? We don’t know. The car just kept driving. “Got the picture, moving on.” And the guy in the prison uniform? Just walking down the street? That seems like something we should look into. But we won’t. We’ll just zoom in and laugh. It’s a glitchy, broken version of our world where old men have twins and people meld into the sidewalk. It’s fine. Everything is fine.

The Google camera cars roam the earth documenting every street, and sometimes they catch things they weren’t supposed to. From matrix glitches to wildlife encounters, here are the funniest and strangest moments preserved forever on the map.

Google Street View glitch showing two identical elderly men with walking sticks on a sidewalk.
A man wearing a Ramones t-shirt appearing half-submerged in a concrete city sidewalk.
An elderly man standing on a gravel driveway looking confused at the Google Street View car.
A man in a blue and white striped prison uniform walking down a public sidewalk.
A brown bear standing in a river surrounded by hundreds of red salmon.
A person in a horse mask sitting at a small table with a pink flamingo.
Two people in a front yard aiming bows and arrows at each other.
A person dressed in a full teddy bear costume sitting on a wooden deck.
A silver car distorted by a camera glitch to look impossibly long with extra doors.
A group of people lined up on the side of a road mooning the camera.

The “twin” glitch with the elderly men is perfect. It looks like a cloning experiment went wrong in the suburbs. And the homeowner staring at the camera car is the universal reaction to being surveilled. “What are you doing? Get off my lawn.” We are all that man.

If you enjoy digital sightseeing, there are more coordinates to visit. We recommend looking at google maps fails, glitch in the matrix photos, and weird internet finds for more mapping humor.
