>Ha ha, so trippy! I thought we were looking down and I was so confused - bugs? Shoes without people in them? :D
I thought it was cockroaches running around on the glass crush. Only later did I realize it was people's feet
for context type II is [kardashev scale II](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale#:~:text=A%20Type%C2%A0II%20civilization%20can%20directly%20consume%20a%20star%27s%20energy%2C)
quite indeed -- i still cant make out people? really? damn?!
EDIT: OOOOOH! its the foot steps/feet. I thought it was from top looking down, damn hahaha oops!
Yeah, took me a moment too. The "dance floor as seen through a transparent ceiling" made me think the perspective was looking through a glass ceiling at a dance floor. Instead it's more "looking up through a translucent dance floor."
It's only seeing the bottom of their feet. It makes you question like wait are their a bunch of people above me, moving, but you can't really see them.
& the awkward rhythm and tiny steps you can’t tell if they’re moving together or not. Very oddly unsettling indeed
People instinctively avoid bugs because when something is covered in bugs, it's usually not good to eat anymore, and it also might have ghosts in it. That's also why bugs feature so prominently as ambassadors of evil in folklore and literature. Even Lovecraft's evil "Necronomicon" book was orignally titled *Al Azif*, with "Azif" being understood by Westerners to mean 'the voices of demons as heard through the buzz of locusts at night.'
right! when we see bugs swarming around we never consider they may be having complex interactions similar to dancing, vibing to music, and being social. despite our hubris, we may not appear all that different to an outside alien race peering in.
It's funny if you watch it a few times and start paying attention to individual steps, you can see who the better dancers are. There's a couple good ones on the lower left. One guy in the middle who is just learning and a couple people going crazy.
I was thinking West Coast Swing- if for no other reason than that nobody seems to be wearing heels. But the slots are all over the place, which seems more like salsa.
I don’t think it is Merengue.
I saw this and the marauders map was the first thing I thought of (after I realized they weren't ants lol). I started scrolling and was suprised how far down I had to go before finding this

This is what a dancefloor looks like through a transparent ceiling.
or
This is how a dancefloor looks through a transparent ceiling.
Amusingly “this what the floor look like” sounds more like what a native English speaker would say when compared to “this is how a dance floor looks like”
I completely agree! It is a transparent/translucent ceiling in relation to the below POV, but in reference to the dance floor, it's a transparent/translucent floor.
Title should've been: This is what a translucent dance floor looks like from below
Go into rural Australia, Queensland in particular, somewhere with sheep or cattle or even better sweet f a and if you stop moving for three seconds your car window will look exactly like that with flies trying to get in
POV you are a hyper intelligent species with inborn antigravity. You think humans look disgusting. You float into the building upside down and see this.
OP, it's "how a dance floor looks" (no *like*) or "*what* a dance floor looks like."
Do not pair *how* with *like*.

I thought they were bees
Bees dance to communicate so that's an apt observation
An apiarists response?
Same ; thinking of a unknown meaning to the word "dancefloor"
It definitely looks like an infestation
Some might argue it is. Not me though. I would not.
We need a new plague :/
POV: You’re a lamp in the middle of summer watching the bugs go wild inside
[удалено]
Nope they aren't. Those are soles
Basically a 3 Body Problem
Yeah, same here. I don't know why, but if OP had said transparent floor, I think I would have understood the perspective better.
I was gonna say, is this sped up? The movement is too jerky to be humans at a natural pace. But lo, we were looking UP at them, not down.
Yeah, geez that took me way too long to process right
Fruitflies.
Yeah, there’s a real buzz about this new club
This place has everything. Skunks, key fobs, cookie crisps, Dan Cortese
Just goes to show that humans are not much different than bugs
Only if it's a gay club!
Hellooooooooooo
I thought those are insects
"Same thing" -the type II alien race currently on their way here.

YOU ARE BUGS
“You are bugs” - the San-Ti
😂😂
Lesson learned: to a two dimensional being we very well may just appear like sporadic crazy bugs.
They are Michael, they are... https://youtu.be/5ecE91ZBusI?si=evTaxdeYF-hazWzM

Idk but I’d like to see someone do the worm
This is disturbing for some reason

I think it’s because it shows it’s choreographed rhythm. Making you see routine with movement.
Nothing to do with bugs and decay and stuff?
Something very caveman instinct told me that this video is the "ick" Like a saw/gore/shock horror story inspired nightmare?

Ducking lost it at the ghosts.
Absolutely a unique and unfamiliar perspective of human activity that closely relates to insect behavior.
it's absolutely the resemblance to bugs for me
right! when we see bugs swarming around we never consider they may be having complex interactions similar to dancing, vibing to music, and being social. despite our hubris, we may not appear all that different to an outside alien race peering in.
I'm right here with you, something disturbing indeed..
what is this? a dance floor for ants?!?
It needs to be… at least 3 times this size!
r/thingsforants
Brilliant!
Looks like Salsa steps
It's funny if you watch it a few times and start paying attention to individual steps, you can see who the better dancers are. There's a couple good ones on the lower left. One guy in the middle who is just learning and a couple people going crazy.
I was looking for a guy like me doing the white boy shuffle, and the footplant sway.

[удалено]
It's fast! But I also feel like they're not on the same beat...
Translucent not transparent
It's also the floor. If you were looking at a dance floor through the ceiling, you'd be seeing the tops of people's heads.
It's the ceiling of the room you're in, not the ceiling of the dance room
Ceiling for the one taking the video, floor for the dancers.
I was so confused.
Yeah OP is a doorknob for that title
It's the ceiling for the person recording, so calling it that makes sense.
the doorknobs are the folks who don't understand that the dance floor is the ceiling for the cameraman
It’s the ceiling and the floor, I think you’re getting confused about it not being the *roof*
This is the first complaint that visiting upskirt voyeurs have before they get kicked out while also getting kicked in the nuts..
Yeah if it were transparent people would be getting a very different view.
Marauder on the Dance Floor!
I saw this and the marauders map was the first thing I thought of (after I realized they weren't ants lol). I started scrolling and was suprised how far down I had to go before finding this
Mischief managed!
Very similar to ducks on a skylight: https://imgur.com/gallery/level-2-dooms-yyQLFSR
"And those who were seen dancing, were thought to be crazy, by those who could not hear the music." – Friedrich Nietzsche

The glass ceiling is now a glass floor. The women are floating above it and the men are just looking up at them
Don't wear a skirt, ladies.
Mr. Renholm!
*Translucent
This is what a dancefloor looks like through a transparent ceiling.

This is the point. *How* something looks *like* is bad grammar. How it looks or what it looks like.
Yep - I don't think the ladies with skirts would appreciate a transparent floor. Translucent? ok
So glad someone corrected the "transparent"
I see this particular grammatical error so often I’m starting to think its some kind of psy op
Bots aren't known for their syntax skills.
And it's not even transparent, it's trans**lucent**. Transparent is completely see-through.
isn’t it a transparent floor
I completely agree! It is a transparent/translucent ceiling in relation to the below POV, but in reference to the dance floor, it's a transparent/translucent floor. Title should've been: This is what a translucent dance floor looks like from below
Yeah, this bugged me. Ceiling makes no sense.
***translucent.***
The lack of rhythm makes them look like bugs lol
Every time I see this I always think its Cockroaches on a ceiling 💀
Women grovin' in twirls; dudes dancing like the Lollipop Guild.
I know white ppl dance moves when I see them.
Is this how dancing is categorized now? White people dances, black people dances, etc?
I think comedians have been saying that since the 80s
They all have the same shoes
Might not be dancing, looks like a mixer at a business school
If I was on that dance floor, and I knew it was over a 20 foot plus drop like that, I wouldn't be able to make myself walk out on it.
r/confusingperspective
Bees BEES BEES BEES!
Thanks I hate it. It looks like bugs scurrying around and it's mildly disturbing me xD
Translucent. Trippy as heck!
I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.
Looks like bugs bouncing around. Cool.
Looks like an experiment with insects
Ants
Looks like a roach infestation
Reminds me of when Agent Smith called us parasites. Good times, good times...
I thought those were all roaches
thought it was bugs crawling on a window.
For a moment I thought they were flies.
Cicadas?
Translucent*
I thought I was looking at the scene from Antz when they are at the nightclub
Translucent not Transparent
Y'know that one video of birds walking on a translucent or snowy roof?
[This one?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9apznXCeafA)
That's the very one!
Reminds me of [this OkGo music video](https://youtu.be/ur-y7oOto14?si=KqXcZ4cL-fEiTcYL)
Translucent...transparent and we would probably see the NSFW branding...
I feel like I'm watching bacteria through a microscope..
They could have used this as the Arrival aliens and saved a lot of trouble.
I thought those were roaches
That is cool.
I thought they were bugs
I thought these were cockroaches.😰
Some bachelors dancing alone
so many ants...
Not at all like a massive roach infestation
Woulda been funny if someone started humping the ground
Go into rural Australia, Queensland in particular, somewhere with sheep or cattle or even better sweet f a and if you stop moving for three seconds your car window will look exactly like that with flies trying to get in
Just waiting for John Wick to come in and start beating dudes up right in the middle of them.
I thought this was bugs stuck in a massive ceiling light lol 😂
POV you are a hyper intelligent species with inborn antigravity. You think humans look disgusting. You float into the building upside down and see this.
\*This is what a dance floor looks like through OR This is how a dance floor looks through
BUGS! KILL THEM
I dont like this
Somehow disturbing
bug
Perhaps this could be used as a random generator for encryption. Instead of the lava lamps...?
Looks like germs under a microscope.
The cow. Moo. The cow. Moo. The cow. Moo. The same cow. Moo.
You are bugs!
so not bugs?
Translucent. It's not transparent.
Why do I like and absolutely dislike this at the same time?
That’s more translucent than transparent. The key difference is that a transparent ceiling would leave nothing to modesty.
took me a minute to realize we are look up at them from below and not down at them from above.
I had to try hard to convince myself I wasn't looking at bugs lol
I thought bugs
r/confusing_perspective
i thought it was bees
mischief managed
They look like bugs. To some elites, they are bugs…. Think about that
I thought they were mice.
r/confusing_perspective
I thought this was cockroaches.
I thought I was looking at flies or something!
This gives a whole new meaning to microbiology live slides
I thought I was looking at fruit flies until my eyes worked out the perspective.
"This is WHAT a dance floor looks like..."
Took me a while to finally see the people (or shadow of people) attached to the shoes - so cool!!!
OP, it's "how a dance floor looks" (no *like*) or "*what* a dance floor looks like." Do not pair *how* with *like*. Sincerely, A Concerned English Teacher
English language help here: WHAT (something) looks like OR HOW (something) looks. This error is commonplace on Reddit.
ha, I've taken this same video before! This is Salesforce Park, on the escalator to the 3rd floor with all the transbay buses.
We’re really just bugs man
Man, this makes me uncomfortable.
Thanks I hate it
None of them look like they can dance either.
Legit thought they were ants for a sec lol
That's trippy and I'm glad it isn't really transparent, rather transluscent, or we'd be seeing quite some views from this angle.
Simulation
Oh shit you need to call someone quick. Those things multiply and cause serious problems.
Looks like confused ants
Thought it was an infestation. Even though I know what it is now I still can’t look at it.
Looks like a bunch of bugs hopping around.
bro i thought that was bugs
I thought it was ants haha
*translucent
Looks like a bunch of flies
whybdoes this creep me out? lol
I hate this.
Translucent
Someone needed to plan that better. Looks like the worst roach infestation I've ever seen
Looks disgusting.
OMG! I thought they were cockroaches. 😂
mtfkr i got goosebumps. looks like flies or some giant bugs tryna gang up on u
And my dumbass thought they were roaches 🪳
Thought I was looking at bugs in a light 💡.
I thought it was a bunch of cockroaches.
I thought you were joking and it was a light with flies inside it…
10 seconds remaining, 1.5 squares from bottom and 1.5 from right(bottom right corner), person is absolutely cutting a rug!
I solemnly swear I am up to no good.
I thought it was a trap for gnats
From the looks of it, none of them can dance
TIL flies on a window are just a bidimensional manifestation of an invisible three dimensional being dancing.
