- robotvsmonkey, on 10/11/2007, -1/+266how exactly are dolphins and flamingos man-made? actually, how are half of those places man-made?
- crackedplastic, on 10/11/2007, -6/+106Using content grabbed from other places without credit. The worst kind of blogspam there is. Buried.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -6/+84Who cares about that,
That roller coaster looks ***** cool! - dezmo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+53why is there a tiny, half naked, black man laying in my pastries?!
- elnerdo, on 10/11/2007, -4/+49Not dugg because it would've been easier, simpler and better to just put jpgs on the page.
- berb, on 10/11/2007, -1/+43Similarly, buried for being the first site I've ever seen that uses Flash Paper.
- SirNoobius, on 10/11/2007, -3/+41yeah it would've been nice to have a sentence or two saying where it is or what it is.
- zachblume, on 10/11/2007, -2/+33The last one is from Jurassic park, heh
- mclove, on 10/11/2007, -2/+29A lot of these are from "Earth From Above" by Yann Arthus-Bertrand - see http://www.yannarthusbertrand.com/yann2/affichage.php for the non-stolen originals.
- sorrow, on 10/11/2007, -4/+27I just want to know where a lot of the pictures are, man made or not!
- Salmar, on 10/11/2007, -3/+23Google image search is your friend.
It's called the Vanish, and is located in Yokohama Cosmoworld (Yokohama Kanagawa Japan)
http://www.rcdb.com/ig1290.htm - ghee, on 10/11/2007, -7/+24Where is that roller coaster?
- DudeRoks, on 10/11/2007, -3/+17@cepher
It wasn't the London Bridge, it was the Tower Bridge. The London bridge is in Arizona.

It's actually a decent photo. - pixelwerx, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13Actually, that's Christ the Redeemer which sits atop Corcovado mountain in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
- mvanhorn, on 10/11/2007, -0/+10:::waits for someone to submit those roller-coaster pictures as its own article:::
- Kypt, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9Nice try but not everything south of the border is Mexico. That is "Christ the Redeemer' and its located in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.

Edit: Apparently I'm incredibly slow typist (or reader of comments I assume). Either way *rainbow on the back* "the more you know..." lol - Salmar, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Lake of the Incas, Portillo Resort, Chile
http://www.geographia.com/chile/portillo/porthot.htm - orientis, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Ach, thanks heaps Salmar. Add Chile to my list of places to go.
- nepalikakro, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5That's not Gibraltar, that's the Corcovado in Brazil.
- turquoisefish, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Looks like harvested cotton to me
- wackymacs, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Buried for being inaccurate and stealing images from around the web and not providing credit lines/captions.
- DragonGirl724, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7HOLY HELL! I don't know where that rollercoaster is located but damn check out SeaWorld's Underwater Rides coming in March 2008!!!
http://www.ultimaterollercoaster.com/news/stories/20070305_01.shtml - UltraPope, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Aye, I was about to post the same. Stupid ***** blog spam.
- Supernova36, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Thanks, I hate uncredited photos..
- cepher, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4@duderoks, i knew my last trip of the UK was fading from me. Thanks for the correction.
But it is wrongly called the "london bridge", which is wrong, as its the next bridge upstream.
-From that same article. - Thisiscjfool, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4its in japan. just look through the earlier comments. there is even a link in there to more pictures of it.
- nepalikakro, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5That's not in Mexico. That's actually the Corcovado in Brazil.
http://www.latinworld.com/images/corcovado.jpg - orientis, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6Does anyone know where the alpine location is?
- cepher, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Cityscapes (the first two) are in Shanghai...I just came from there..
then of course Eiffel tower: paris, and the london bridge. - Balanced, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Inaccurate and badly presented.
- xaaronreevesx, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6On number 11 with all the sand... the sand is a different color then the sand on the ground. Plus, look at the part of the road where the sand meets it, its... awkward.
- Nerfdude, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3scribd? i'm getting tired of websites named like they're trying to fit the url on a custom license plate.
- corporalclegg24, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2I think #13 is ironic. It is a black man in the biggest cotton field!
- dn11, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2some of the pics are nice but why most the title be so incoherent?
- SlamShut, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Hmmm... there's no selection on the dropdown for "Stupid, sloppy, boring, stolen *****." I'll have to go with "lame."
- gforce42, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Cool pictures... interesting description.
#15 is in Portugal. - weizbox, on 10/11/2007, -3/+5LOL, those dolphins looks like they're about the beat the hell outta those surfers.
Those are some pretty sweet photos tho, def wouldn't mind heading out to the pool in the middle of the mountains, it looks pretty bad ass..... and probably very expensive. - cosmicr, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1the one with the jesus statue is this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christ_the_Redeemer_%28statue%29
- KMye, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Beware dolphin gangrape
- pinesol101, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1thats a whole lot of light pollution
- bball2, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I wanna go on that roller coaster!!
- grumpyrain, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1That onramp to that bridge makes me dizzy.
Any idea where it is? - dugem1, on 01/18/2008, -0/+1That's great find

Very cool picture of it. Google rules all. - schrodingercat, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1@Grumpyrain: It's in Shanghai.
- warMen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Damn I've always wanted to go skiing at portillo (the mountain lake place). some of our friends go... and recently there was a raffle for a fundraiser for a family trip to go skiing there in august.
- deadsenator, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Agreed. And in Flash to boot! This makes it difficult to d/l them to use for my own purposes. On the plus side, I was able to leave a message calling them a thief. Boy, do I feel better.
- ninja0, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1isn't that blue bridge one in vancouver somewhere or am i crazy?
- erkokite, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1For those interested, Pictures 5,11,13, and 14 are from the book Earth From Above (IIRC), which has many similar photos, as well as a commentary on sustainable living. Great book to pick up.
