The coolest and funniest Google Street View captures from around the world

THE ULTIMATE EXPRESSION of boredom might be sitting at your computer browning Google Street View. That doesn’t mean it’s a fruitless endeavor, however. We can’t travel as freely as we used to these days, but we can still explore some of the world’s most absurd sights from the comfort of our living rooms. Jon Rafman did just that. Jon dedicated an impressive amount of time to browsing Google Street View and finding all kinds of bizarre things the Google Street View car probably didn’t mean to photograph. From a herd of sheep causing a traffic jam to a dolphin leaping majestically out of the water and a dangerously low-flying plane, these are some of his funniest finds

How long do you think the Google car sat there waiting for this exact moment?
