I’ve seen them too, but I’ve never been able to photograph one, hic.
It’s an invisibility cloak, I should know, I have one.
You can’t photograph just one hick. You always get a cousin or two in there.
Walking on the water gone wrong?
Clearly, he’s a double amputee being supported by both his 3 legged children.
You can see his boots, which quickly illustrates what’s going on here.
Well yeah, I mean clearly when his legs vanished, his boots fell off and got shuffled out of the way by his well meaning family, who are hiding them to prevent embarrassment.
He’s not levitating, duh! He’s clearly emerging from the water, with the lower half of his body transparent, as is the norm for his sort of water spirit. (Also his arms are incredibly long, but foreshortening makes it look like he’s next to the two people in front.) Sheesh! I despair for people’s critical thinking skills, sometimes!
Perhaps some watery tart threw a sword at him and severed his torso. Or, maybe he’s the Black Knight with his arms reattached? It could happen.
It’s not levitation, people. You have too much imagination. All of you. This photograph was clearly taken mid-teleportation.
It’s not levitation, he’s just wearing invisible jeans.
Conjoined triplets?
Joke?
There’s a joke?
@pesco works in mysterious and oblique ways…
Exactly why our family name is Hicks, not Hick.
That’s what happens when you wear camo pants.
I think those kids caught a merman and they’re about to throw the other half back in the water.
