These things will shock you, they’ll freak you out, some will captivate you, and many will make you do double takes… but when you take that second (or third) look, you’ll realize none of these images are actually offensive at all.
These deceptive innovations aren’t what they seem, yet our minds instantly see a shock visual. Would a child see the same thing? It’s an interesting thing to think about, and a curious insight into the way our minds work.
Regardless of the reason, enjoy these double-take worthy images, and have fun freaking yourself out!
