 Images Sewerrrrr This image was taken by a CCTV camera exploring an underground sewer pipe in Newtonbreda, Northern Ireland. NI Water officials say that "Sewerface," as they've dubbed this character, is most likely "a result of a combination of the bend in the sewer line and variations in light.” But of course we know the Truth.
"‘Sewerface’ lurking in city underground" (via Fortean Times)

    It’s an optical illusion. The “face” is a lit exit, the “chest” is reflection from the water.
