The Internet has made us cynical. The minute we see a picture that seems even slightly less than normal, we immediately cry. "Photoshop!"
This is unfortunate for all the photographs out there that are amazingly authentic, yet meet nothing but skepticism.
Whether they're achieved with camera tricks, optical illusions, props or just abnormal subjects, all of these pictures that have made their way around the Internet actually fall in the "not Photoshopped" category.

This is what happens when art students get their hands on a house that is about to be demolished. In Houston, some folks reconstructed the side of the house into looking like an endless vortex. The display, just like the house, was eventually knocked down.

This picture from almost 10 years ago is of a Somali truck parked on the side of the road in Mogadishu. That's corn that is shooting out of the truck from all angles. And you thought you had trouble fitting everything in the car for the Memorial Day beach weekend.

This is a profile pic on someone's Facebook page. The corset designer and the woman pictured actually have a quick conversation about the corset in the comments below the pic, so we know she eventually made her way out of that thing alive.

This looks like it's two photographs Photoshopped together but it's not. The picture was taken by the blonde on the left. The left side shows a mirror, reflecting her image back to the camera. On the right is her friend seen through clear glass. As a result, you can see the very slight reflection of the blonde's arm on the glass.

This picture made the rounds a while back and as much as we'd all like to believe that a crab couldn't get that big, it's real. The coconut crab is the largest living arthropod in the world.
Just add this as another reason to the list of why we hate taking out the trash.
