Unique Google Street View Images that Tell an Incredible Story

Google Street View is a great tool to use to see the layout of a city without ever having to leave the comfort of your home. Because the Google Street View cars that take photos of the street for the site are so colorful and easy to spot, many people go out of their way to pose for the camera or even make sure important life moments are captured on the site forever.

And sometimes, mysterious moments are accidentally captured by the camera leading to internet sleuths attempting to track down who is in the photos, to some pretty interesting results. These are some of the most interesting finds on the map app that were found by eagle eyed virtual travelers.

Dabbing For the Camera

This cyclist in Victoria, Australia did what anyone passing by a Google Street View car would do: pose for the camera. Of course, they couldn’t hop off of their vehicle for the spur of the moment chance, so they did their best dab for the photograph, which was captured in several different photos all along this street.

Smile For the Camera

No, this isn’t just a group of random people who happened to find themselves in front of a Google Street View car, this is a group of Google employees from their offices in London who knew that the car was planning to make a trip past their location. So, they organized a flash mob and got on their craziest hats for the occasion.

Have I Seen You Around Before?

It’s always fun to see Google Street View camera cars meet, and this is exactly what you should be on the look out for if you’d like to end up on the site’s maps someday. The cars are covered in map graphics and have a huge camera extending from the top of the car, so they’re pretty hard to miss if you’re looking out for them.
