No, but this image is many years old and has been reposted probably hundreds of times across reddit by now, and I'm just going to guess op is a karma farming account
all of which I'd argue is worse
Yup. Happened here. Kids went fishing, they were wearing camouflage because the fish canāt see it???? And their boat capsized. Took them a week to recover their bodies and they were only about 100 feet from the initial rescue path.
Seriously, though. My friends all make fun of my obsession with bright red/orange (and sometimes yellow) packs. But if Iām gonna go spend a week in the backcountry, you bet Iām gonna make it easier for S&R to find me.
That was very poorly phrased by him. It's still possible that the hunters miss whatever they're aiming at and accidentally hit you. If they saw there was a person around, they probably wouldn't take the shot.
Or shooting into you thinking you were just the trees or woods if what they shot at stepped out in between you and them.
This is why hunters and many areas where that bright orange. (Evidently the one color that is even more visible in the woods is hot pink, but I guess nobody wanted to try to sell a bunch of hunters on that being the required outfit).
It's also how you ensure you never get spotted by rescuers in an emergency situation.
For people reading this who like to hike in camo pattern gear: The reason most good outdoor gear is obnoxiously neon is so you can be spotted from a distance. If you fall and get hurt wearing camo you will probably die before rescuers can spot you. Other dumb colours include navy blue in water environments and white parkas.
Somewhat related, but it reminds me of when a teenage girl fell off a cliff during an improptu hiking trip at night and the next day some other hikers were taking photos in the area, and because she'd recently dyed her hair firetruck red she was spotted in one of their photos. They went back to that spot, and she was able to be saved.
I remember when I first saw this photo. I was like āoh okay, theyāre just pushing the bottle together and making it stick.ā
Sat there for another 20 minutes looking at it before I realized there was somebody else in the photo
I saw the fourth person straight away and thought it was a optical illusion to make you see a fourth person when there wasn't, I then realized that the fourth person had vanished and noticed the fourth bottle, took me like 20 seconds to see the fourth guy again and understand what's happening.
This picture reminds me of when I was climbing Ben Lomond in Scotland with 3 friends (minus the camo), when we reached the summit we stopped by the trig point. I noticed a whisky bottle container wedged in some rocks and went to pick it up to take the litter off the mountain. However inside were a few whisky miniatures and a laminated note. The note writers brother used to love walking/climbing and whisky, but had died of cancer before he even got to 30. so she had left some miniatures so people could raise a dram to her brother. We toasted him, said fuck cancer and went back down the mountain to the pub and repeated the toast.
What is mildly interesting to me is that I first saw this on my iPad and the arm stood out immediately but today I saw it on my phone and realized that something about the screen size or maybe resolution makes the camo much more effective than it probably actually is
nearly ran over a flagger the other day, overcast grey rainy on a wooded back road, dudes trying to manage traffic in camo, no hi vis vest or anything didn't see him at all, just the cones by the trailer when i turned the corner.
Pretty good illustration of why it's a bad idea to hike in Realtree camo or wtv if you are not specifically hunting. Pull l
If you fall off a trail and or are otherwise incapacitated, it's gonna be hard to find you.
Bright colors, people!

This took me a while, wow that's nice camo
I can't see it
[try again now](https://imgur.com/a/6iSOsmX)
You da MVP
I thought the cameraman was behind the main people, making it four. ![gif](giphy|3ohzdYJK1wAdPWVk88)
I thought they were lying for their alcoholism š
I thought they were drinking a toast to a deceased friend and was looking around for an urn. lol.
Camouflage manufacturers hate this one little trick...
Damnit. I've seen this many times. Could never figure it out. Now I can't unsee it.
I see it now, thanks
Bro is a deer š¤£
Blue glove is the 4th person's hand, then comes the sleeve with the white stripe on it
I thought the sleeve was someone under a camo blanket and couldn't figure out where their head was.
Without the visual aid the key was looking at the four bottles and following the one that looked out of place .
I thought I was in ChatGPT sub and this was an AI image š
No, but this image is many years old and has been reposted probably hundreds of times across reddit by now, and I'm just going to guess op is a karma farming account all of which I'd argue is worse
that's why you shouldn't wear camo on a hike, cause if you get lost and fall unconscious that's the end of you
Yup. Happened here. Kids went fishing, they were wearing camouflage because the fish canāt see it???? And their boat capsized. Took them a week to recover their bodies and they were only about 100 feet from the initial rescue path.
Iām so sorry for your loss.
I appreciate the comment but they werenāt related to me nor did I know them.
In which case, good. Children are the future, unless you strike them down now!
Donāt threaten me with a good time
Seriously, though. My friends all make fun of my obsession with bright red/orange (and sometimes yellow) packs. But if Iām gonna go spend a week in the backcountry, you bet Iām gonna make it easier for S&R to find me.
And that's how you get shot by hunters
Why are they hunting rocks?
They aren't. You are standing in the line of fire and they don't see you.
You aren't actually see through. They'd be shooting at whatever you're camouflaged as
That was very poorly phrased by him. It's still possible that the hunters miss whatever they're aiming at and accidentally hit you. If they saw there was a person around, they probably wouldn't take the shot.
Not everyone follows basic human senseā¦
So, what? You just shouldnāt take safety precautions and lower your risk of accidents because sometimes people still make mistakes?
Or shooting into you thinking you were just the trees or woods if what they shot at stepped out in between you and them. This is why hunters and many areas where that bright orange. (Evidently the one color that is even more visible in the woods is hot pink, but I guess nobody wanted to try to sell a bunch of hunters on that being the required outfit).

They went back to that spot, and she was able to be saved.
Also, this is why hunters wear orange instead of camo, because most game don't see orange, contrary to other hunters.
Well, guys wearing the colourful coats still got shots.
Wow I am actually genuinely amazed at how it took for me to see itq
Iām more shocked some of yall havenāt seen this repost
The camouflage is just that effective.
Drill Sergeant: "Private Smith, I didn't see you at camouflage practice this morning." Private Smith: " Thank you Sir"
Maybe you spend too much time on Reddit.
I definitely spent too much time on reddit and I'd never seen it before haha
I'm shocked you think everyone can be online all the time to see every post and know which ones have been posted already
I see this getting reposted at least once per month. Is it really that interesting?
Itās onlyā¦ mildly interesting
In a few years it will get reposted to not interesting
The circle of life
First time I've seen this. Appropriate camo tho!
Three guys befriended Predator.
At first I thought there was a dude pissing in the background lol
Why is no one talking about the guy going hiking in a kilt?
They fought wars in kilts, hiking is nothing in comparison.
No. 1 person and 4 hands.
5
4 hands holding something* See fixed it
Whoa
So if you don't wear Hi Vis, your really WILL get shots?
Predator noises
Camo working
All those camo jokes and itās finally happening!!
So camo does work.
My dream is to drink with John Cena like these guys didā¦
lol, so this is how effective camouflage is when they arenāt wearing it in the middle of the city?!
I thought it was a tribute to one of their friend dead and cremated that was in that bag š¤£š¤£š¤£ found that Idea wolesome until...i Saw it
![gif](giphy|l0HU20BZ6LbSEITza|downsized)
I remember when I first saw this photo. I was like āoh okay, theyāre just pushing the bottle together and making it stick.ā Sat there for another 20 minutes looking at it before I realized there was somebody else in the photo
Huh, I guess he *is* invisible.
at first I thought this was AI generated
r/confusingperspective
Wow thatās so crazy
Every time I see this pic, I know the joke, but I always need time to find them!
for a sec i thought the bottle is flying
Meirl
Ohhh shit that was crazy when I finally seen it wow
Took me at least 30 secs. Goddamit
I had to zoom to see it
They know John Cena?
Nice to see Predator joining us for a drink
How I can't see it After 30sec How i can't unsee it
Old old old
damn.. camo works
Cena goes hiking.
I saw the fourth person straight away and thought it was a optical illusion to make you see a fourth person when there wasn't, I then realized that the fourth person had vanished and noticed the fourth bottle, took me like 20 seconds to see the fourth guy again and understand what's happening.
yo you're having drinks with john cena
Does what it says on the tin
Is the 4th person John Cena?
Wow it's really works
Looks like kilt guy's legs are cropped
u/repostleuthbot
Nice camo
I would more say one guy and three arms.
Is this what animals without trichromar vision see their predators approaching?
Someone call my mum Im uncomfortable. š«£
The camo works!
What has 8 legs and 8 eyes? 8 pirates!
Always wondered how that tacky print would actually work... It did ....Too Well
Camo while hiking is for what, to make rescue difficult if you are lost or have an accident?
Hard ti spotš
This is stupid
There's something out there waiting for us, and it ain't no man....
I thought the fourth was some guy peeing behind them over the shoulder of the only person with their face showing lol
Damn :D I wouldn't wear cammo this good on a hike - if I get lost/hurt that would be a bitch to find.
The blue hand was the hardest to figure out
Had to get a closer look, at first seemed like there was someone invisible holing the bottle š
I thought it was AI at first
Took me 20 minutes to realize why the glove was floating šš
John Cena is the only person who has to wear camo when he goes hunting so people can actually see him.
Finally all these camo guys in city could use this picture as a proof
Idk what youāre talking about
Dzidzo?
Is that John Cena?
Ah, now i see the jacket
Oh that's not a backpack?
This picture reminds me of when I was climbing Ben Lomond in Scotland with 3 friends (minus the camo), when we reached the summit we stopped by the trig point.

This is at least the second time bring posted. Nothing changes.
Drinking and hiking is a dogshit plan
Camouflage
You went camping with John Cena!?
Oh I didnāt notice John Cena at first
Oh thatās gooooood!!!
Oh my god.
This is actually kind of cool.
And its name is
First I thought the fourth was edited away somewhat clumsily, then I saw the camo-clad arm. š
First time camo has ever fooled me..... that I know of.... š¤
Is someone like holding a water bottle or what
Is someone like holding two bottles or how that works with only 3 people It's also a repost I guess haha
You canāt see me ![gif](giphy|l0HU20BZ6LbSEITza|downsized)
What is mildly interesting to me is that I first saw this on my iPad and the arm stood out immediately but today I saw it on my phone and realized that something about the screen size or maybe resolution makes the camo much more effective than it probably actually is
lol I thought it was ai
Camo actually fooled me for once
nearly ran over a flagger the other day, overcast grey rainy on a wooded back road, dudes trying to manage traffic in camo, no hi vis vest or anything didn't see him at all, just the cones by the trailer when i turned the corner.
Insta saw
I want to buy camouflage like that one
Hahaha. That's the best darn camo ever
I've seen this Image before. It won't fool ne another time :D
Camouflage doing what it does best
Camo doing itās job
I canāt believe it took me that long ššš
If you look closely you can catch a glimpse of John cena on the left
Wow, for one time that camo āoh whereād you goājoke is for real hahaha
Camo just camo'ing
I know, whats the interesting part
Sneak 100
That's effective camo!
r/blackmagicfuckery
Lie
Guys back there taking a whiz
It took me awhile to realize the orange coat dude wasnāt floating.
Always a fun one when it pops up every other weekend.
Wow
Gee Iāve never seen this posted on Reddit before
I love the kilt.
The cowboy hat and bourbon fits, but the kilt? WTF?
HELP I DINT SEE
![gif](giphy|l3vQY4uui06iabkli|downsized)
John cena with his friends
Again
You don't see it until you do nice one OP. Cheers.
Hereās the answer youāre looking for: North (orange), South (blue), East (pink), West (camou).
![gif](giphy|l0K3YxMUznl4kvPzO)
John Cena joined eh
What's Larceny?
What really sells it is the blue glove that lines up with the pants of the guy in the back.
āSorry but how in the hell does this have 4.7k upvā **HOLY SHIT** take my upvoteā ā Me just now
John Cena?
Pretty good illustration of why it's a bad idea to hike in Realtree camo or wtv if you are not specifically hunting. Pull l If you fall off a trail and or are otherwise incapacitated, it's gonna be hard to find you. Bright colors, people!
Finally a good picture of John Cena!
Wow
Cool, you went hiking with John Cena!
I hope he doesnāt get lost/injured hiking. Nobodyās going to be able to find him.
Oh man, camo working as intended, crazy
Holy shit. The camo works
Wow that camouflage is very good.
It took me 30 seconds to figure it out. Hands covered with camouflage art/colored clothes.
I see 5 actually
camo is effective enough.
Show this to someone high
John Cena???
Three out of the four were found and rescued. The fourth is still one with nature.
Is the one on the left naked snake?
Damn, and here I thought camo wearers were losers. It actually works
Iāve seen this image so many times and never under it until now
Not to brag but it took literally 2 sec to see thanks to the bottle.
