Browse Through This Entertaining Collection of Street View Imagery

Have you ever spotted a Google Street View car in your area? Google updates its Street View imagery every few years or so in most urban areas, so depending on where you live, you might have a pretty good chance of seeing one of Google's unmistakable Street View cars take a drive down your street with its branded exterior and wacky looking camera perched on top of its roof.

It just so turns out that Google's Street View team often ends up capturing some pretty strange stuff. And with so much surface area to cover, those strange images that were captured usually end up on on Street View, only later to be spotted by users checking out the area online.

For certain controversial images that do end up on Street View, Google provides instructions for how to go about reporting them if you think an image should be blurred or possibly even removed.

A Guy Flipping Off the Street View Car As It Passes.

Besides all the people with great senses of humor who love to drop their pants and moon the Street View cars as they pass, there are many others who don't seem as happy to see them.

Yikes, a Real Murder Investigation?

We can't confirm if this is real or not, but StreetViewFun.com's description for this image is "witnessed a murder investigation in Huntington WV."

For now, it's still up online. Just so you know, previously captured Street View imagery of a completely different murder-like image taken in 2014 was later confirmed to be a hoax.

A Guy Doing… Wait, Is This Real?

At first glance this looks pretty insane and impressive, but if you zoom out a bit, you'll notice it's not actually a guy turning himself into a human bridge and another guy walking directly across his body.

It is, in fact, part of the billboard they're attached to. It does look quite real, though.

Is that a ghost disappearing in mid-air or half of a guy's face? How could this have happened? At least he didn't need to be blurred out like everyone else who shows up on Street View.
