obviously there is a clear top to the room with water on it. It gives the illusion everyone is underwater hanging out but clearly fake. In one picture you can see the ladder is split. Plus if they were really under water their hair would be floating and not pressed against their heads.
It's a good thing Internet Detective "negzero7" is on the case, Otherwise we might have all thought those people were really standing underwater.
That was a close one.
Haha.
Red Note make me laffy
negzero7
Of COURSE the people displayed areny really underwater. That is the point of the display.... a cool and fun effect easily (albeit expensivly) attained.
Unless you were trying to inform us that humans can't breathe underwater....which would further prove that you sir, are an idiot.
Damn that negzero7 must have some education to spot this, I am impressed :-)
I'm just waiting for someone to try to dive in
They're drowning! Why isn't that guy helping them?
negzero7 you do know that light passing through materials of different refractive index it will seem like it's breaking, right?
Thank god for "Negzero7", he saved me ALOT of time i would have spent trying to figure this bad boy out.
Thanks Negzero7!
negzero7, you must make your mommy proud on a regular basis.

darn you comment system!
;_; I was owned *hangs head in shame*
And once again Negzero7 saves the day, we can all sleep sound, never fear citizens of the internets, The Negman is watching over us...
Pretty cool!
And what is really funny; if negzero7 did not leave that original comment, the resulting commentary would be completely focused on similar speculative reporting. How quick people are to ridicule someone with "duh" logic which they themselves might not initially possess. Just a thought...
It's art... and of course it's not real... lol just imagine that.
Although if you look at the first picture without looking at any other pictures you might have thought they put a bunch of dummies under water.
Voice of reason "cwiceman" comes out of nowhere with a shocking blow to all you internet badguys out there. Without the help of intrepid blog commentators, we ignorant masses would be forced to conclude that Japanese people were actually amphibians. Yes, how quickly we jump on those who only seek to help us on our paths to enlightenment. *strokes neckbeard*
All i can say is that these comments have made me laugh harder than I have in weeks. particularly the second comment. l0lz
funny...nice pool though.
Have no fear, detective dip sh.t is here!!
negzero7 = phunny !
actually it's possible to breathe in some liquid (perfluorocarbon)

NegZero7 is Atlantean, give him a break, Land Dwellers. Geez...
It's pretty cool but this is cooler - Cool Site
Been there. It's installation by an artist at the 21st Century Museum in Kanazawa, Japan.
no diving.
red note is such a goon.
The interesting thing is this "pool" looks like it gets a decent amount of foot traffic. And can anyone spot where the people are entering the pool from?
hahahaha, the pics aren't nearly as entertaining as netzero7's comment and everyone else's comments regarding netzero's comment.. i love the internets.
Entrance? It would appear to me that it's on the side opposite the ladder, since it's the only side not pictured
So wait, just to be clear, am I right in saying those people AREN'T underwater?
Well, technically, they ARE "under water". You can't deny that there's water above them. ;)
Thanks negzero for making me laugh btw!
D
I love to skate in that
negzero is a horses butt
LOL the comments are the funniest part of this whole post :D
I was going to say what SoreGums said...
Well done folks!
Um, do NOT CLICK on Support's "Cool Site." I now must stare at voteboob porn to rinse my mind. Must. Rinse.
um, i think the real question is how did they get under the glass, i don't see a door
I can tell from some of the pixels
of corse it seems like the people are under the water.
negzero7, you..... just..... wow.
I bow before your mighty powers of deduction and intimidating intellect.

These Japanese, so naive... You will find real freak pictures in Rosario Freak http://www.rosariofreak.com.ar from Rosario, Argentina.
Enjoy it!!
Damn, and I thought they were holding their breath just for the picture.
The 'entrance' is OBVIOUSLY the top of the pool.
mwahahahah I think i see my cousin in there...
Now thats trippy. I wonder what would happen if the glass broke..

How stupid can you be negzero?
Clips video et paroles
Douche1: obviously this is fake.
Douche2: thanks Douche1 for pointing out the obvious.
Douche3-7: hahah Douche2 you are so funny. Douche1 you is a ideot.
Douche8: ok here's how it really works: www,howstuffworks,com/wierdpool
I thought there were pictures of people printed on the bottom of the pool to look 3d, nice one
Andrew is an apparent doucheologist.
And to you, I say, "Douché!"
Why am I not going underwater? DEAR GOD, WHY AM I NOT GOING UNDERWATER!?
wow wow...its quite obvious
negzero went to a elite private school...cause i mean us public school people were never taught this thing called "thinking" instead we were taught about cost cutting and 1 textbook between 4 people.
well at least we know the world is in the hand of intelligent people
like negzero...lead the way
and let the education gap increase until only 5 people can afford to go to school.
on behalf of all the people who went to under-funded-borderline-government schools with ex soviet union facilities such as Atlas' that consisted of stalin's old battle plans and propaganda such as "viva la revolution' on each second page. thank you negzero it is people like you that lets me sleep at night
This pool is at the Kanazawa modern art museum in Ishikawa prefecture.
I was there actually 3 weeks ago studying at a school.
It's just a clear piece of plexiglass. I went under the pool. It's really trippy from both sides haha
here is the site for the museum in addition

now thats cool! i want one...
It's funny to see that pictures. I've been there last year; when I went to japan with my colleagues at aquabot regarding a conference with some clients there. It's part of an abstract art museum.
There are two clear acrylic glasses about a foot apart and water is filled inside. The top surface is also filled with about 4 to 5 inches of water so that it just look like water. May be you want to look at this movie clip also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7paSzXEe2Q
You can't put the hand through the water. I was under there as well, and there is no way to do that.
this is hilarious, Dad Scares Daughter
wow fanatastic idea!
Nicely done!
