Gallery of Superhero Squirrels is Just Super

Squirrels might be tiny, but they can be huge pests sometimes. However, for people who don’t live in countries where they’re commonly spotted, they’re among the most adorable mammals ever. Although they can be destructive sometimes, they’re also heroes in their own little way. For example, they’re responsible for planting lots of trees in various areas, as they often forget where they buried their acorns.

Depicting them in a totally different light is deviantArt artist Santiago Perez.

His Photoshopped creations don’t just depict squirrels as mere heroes. They’re superheroes, and some of the biggest ones yet. His gallery features the tiny creatures shopped to make them look like they’ve donned the costume of Spider-Man, Iron Man, and Batman. In the case of the Hulk, I’d say he decked out the squirrel in the Hulk’s typical non-costume.

The Totally True History of Video Game Graphics

The Totally True History of Video Game Graphics

Humans? Usually unappreciative and typically awful. But it wasn’t always like this! When we didn’t have fancy technology with so many features they become useless and couldn’t trap amazingness in a box in our pockets, we enjoyed the little things. Like 8-bit graphics and physical buttons and cords and cartridges. Hell, we even though the graphics were great. Now? It could be real life and we wouldn’t be impressed.

The Weirdest Thing on the Internet Tonight: The Baron

Sometimes, even the most earnest attempts at positive self realization don’t work out quite the way we hope.

Watch People Freak Out When They See Ghosts Inside an iPhone Camera

This prank is such pure evil genius that you can’t help but laugh. And feel bad because you’d get freaked out too. Funny man Jack Vale scared the creepy crawly goosebumps out of people by asking strangers to take his picture with his iPhone. Why’s that scary? Because Vale had pre-recorded a fake ‘ghost’ (or zombie) walking through the frame of the camera so people would think they just saw a dead person that wasn’t there in real life move across the screen. What the people thought they were seeing in real time was actually a horrifying recording.
