People Are Sharing Real-Life Photos That Look Like Bad Renders (50 Pics)

Sometimes I think it would be fun to live in a video game or a movie. Who knows, maybe we are and we just don’t know it? These real-life pics that look like bad renders people are sharing sure make it seem so.

Sure it could just be a mirage or a funny perspective but I like to think it’s just a bad render in a video game.
