Topless Sunbathing

Imagine having a quiet afternoon’s topless sunbathing on your private, secluded, back patio - and then one day discovering that your nearly naked body has been posted all over the Internet!

Whilst this isn’t the first time someone has been caught with their kit off in Google Earth, to my eye, it seems that what little clothes are actually being worn, are… ahem - the kind most commonly worn by the fairer sex, shall we say?

Thanks to Romanov.

    XD

    Google is watching you!
    MUHAHAHAHA

  3. Derek says:

    It’s definitely a speedo-type bottom, but you have to remember that most bathers, including men, in Europe wear speedos - not the swimming trunks you see in the US.

    “It’s definitely a speedo-type bottom, but you have to remember that most bathers, including men, in Europe wear speedos - not the swimming trunks you see in the US.” … Erm…what?? Nice theory but I wonder where you got this information from… :)

    excuse me but i agree with derek. living in miami and seeing all of the foreigners (europeans mostly, but the rest are canadian so they’re just as weird) wearing bannana hamocks is just wrong.

  6. Alex says:

    hehe! “banana hammocks” :D

  7. Lars says:

    I hope GoogleSightseeing doesn’t become a porn-paysite now…

  8. david says:

    afraid of the banana hammock because you can’t fill it? always amusing to see really hot people wear anything and people that don’t have the package or abs or guns etc are always quick to disapprove of revealing clothing or nudity.

  9. Says Says says:

    Well, stay in your house.

  10. Kristian says:

    Sooo.. we Europeans wear speedos, even us men..
    better tell my friends that we have to buy us some speedos, apparently we have to wear them, cos were europeans.. after all, we arent that many, us europeans, only a couple 100 millions more then Americans..

    You know ive seen some americans, they were surfers, they said dude to eveyone, and where stoned all the time.. so using the sharp Sherlock holms deduction made on this page, every Americans stoned all the time and says dude to each other..

    (sarcasm, look it up, ive heard americans are unfamiliar with the term)

    You know, it’s not like Google is taking the pictures. Google DOES NOT own any satellites.

  12. bryan says:

    I found the photo on another blog, googleblognewschannel, I think it was. Underneath the photo, caption, and viewer comments, I counted four ads for laser hair removal. Man, these advertisers are quick!!!

  13. John Doe says:

    How do people find this stuff?

  14. Bobby says:

    Don’t hate Canadians because we are skinnier then you americas and not to mention more beautiful. I have met many american tourists over the summer and they are comment on how Canadians are so much better looking. hahaha BITE ME cause your just jelous

  15. dutchmen says:

    Sorry, ‘frusties’. The person spotted seems to be a 61-year old lady wearing her underwear.

  16. Clyde says:

    haha cant even make out if thats a woman

  17. Kees-Jan says:

    It looks like it’s wintertime in Den Haag, Netherlands, photo is taken around 12:30 AM considering the direction of the shadow. And when I see the lengthy shadows, and the absense of leaves on the trees in winter… I think it’s an inflatable sex-toy, you see the strange direction of her legs under the knees, just left outside the front-door to get washed out after you know what…
    :-P

  18. Henk says:

    Seems some people herereally don’t know us Europeans. We simply don’t care if someone sees us naked. All the excitement seems to be in the minds of American pre-teens. That is: I hope it’s just kids, not adults.
    ( btw: Pic’s were taken early spring, and from a plane , not a sattelite. )

  19. graham says:

    I don’t wear full speedos but I do wear a backless type. The best fun I have ever had was getting out of a pool in the US wearing by backless speedos. I thought the men would bust a blood vein..the women didn’t mind at all!!!

  20. melanie says:

    what is the big deal? haha i sun bathe topless all the time its a regular person obviously trying to relax… thats messed up that someone even cares and that people are fighting about it on websites… leave ther poor poerson alone

  21. Mr.Cool says:

    LOL dude, nice embarressing moment if thy find out ! :))

  22. phil says:

    actually kristian, your mostly right! i say dude all the time, and i LOVE to get stoned!

  23. Paul says:

    1 rocket launch pad = US$500M
    1 apollo rocket = US$100M
    1 high resolution imagery satellite = $US20M
    1 picture of yourself naked on the internet = priceless

    for everything else there’s mastercard!

  24. paul says:

  25. Lexi says:

  27. James McDeere says:

    You have to use your imagination to even see that it is a person lying there. It jooks more like a blow-up doll without arms. But then again - that would be even more embarrasing.

  28. C says:

    Heh, we wear kneelength shorts in Australia, we’re extremely conservative… even the women are fully covered in two piece kinis, unlike what I’ve heard of Europe…

  29. guest says:

  36. Micah Roe says:

    I am thinking this is a man!

  37. Frank says:

    Dear people, if you had had a picture of last Sunday (April 15, 2007), you could have seen a crowd of naked people there. It’s an FKK beach. Imagine! Hundreds, perhaps thousands of naked people. Where would you look?

  38. Dude says:

    What are you talking about Derek? Most people here wear ‘long’ swimming shorts. Wow o great americans please help us with our problem of ball squashing pain.. Oh wait we dont have that problem.

    Another one for you that you can spread around, all foreigners (this goes for every country) ehm lets see, ah! all foreigners light fires in their backyards and dance around them before EVERY meal. There you go more equally true information to spread around.

  39. Leandro says:

    Eu não consigo ver muito bem, a imagem não é perfeita.

  40. OBSERVER says:

    This is to 37. Hatter from February 28th, 2007 at 7:21 pm.
    When you say Americans; are you talking about just people in the United States, or are you talking about North, Central and South America? Who is Sherlock holms?
    I thik you need to go back to school… Grade School.

  41. twan says:
