The power of image

[Virtual ghost]

I have always been fascinated from the distance with ability to reshape things or make them look as something they are not. What is fascinating since often people can't notice something familiar of the image is taken away. In other words we in general don't see the other person but social image of this person.

For this reason I will make a little test and anyone who is interested can play.


RULES

1. I will give one picture of a person and people should try to guess who the person is.

2. If you already know the correct answer don't spoil this for others, keep it for yourself. (I will post the answer is 3 days)

3. If you have figured it out you can post the answer under a spoiler. In the case you don't want any spoliers or clues don't scroll down the thread.

Or do you want me to pm you the answer or leave it as it is?

I guess that this is it from suggestions.

You are correct.

What I find interesting is that even a person that everbody everywhere saw so many times can change only one key facial feature to become almost unrecognizable. Therefore almost everybody would probably walk right next to the Hitler without realizing that it was him. It is litterally the mustache that made him "the Hitler".


I did similar stuff/changes and many people who knew me even looked directly at me, but they just didn't recognize me.

I was confused why a picture of hitler, which was the first thing I saw, appeared and I was confused what would it mean by "missing feature". It was then I looked at the text again that it made real sense what the whole thread is about. Whoa, a bit of a surprise for me lol.

Very interesting. If hitler was not in his uniform and walked pass the street, I probably won't even notice he was there at all myself. It was the rest of his facial feature that gave the clue away, and the way that the hair is combed.

See what others got to say about this.

Yeah I guessed the same thing. I didn't know he'd reveal the answer so soon though lol

BTW, given this person's role, wouldn't an alternative title for the thread (given the spoiler) be

"The Image of Power" ?
