Share your pics of "impossible" poses

Part of the problem artists have, I've noticed, is that we tend to not realize how much the body can twist and turn, especially when we use our own as the judge. Some of us are far stiffer than others of course.

So share some photos, old or new, male or female, let's just look at the human body for a moment. Doesn't need to be something you want to draw, just something that shows how dynamic the human body can be, especially in motion.

Although, admittedly, that pains me to watch.

Really? I've noticed that far more often is the problem of overestimation of the body's bendiness.
But you're still right, there's still a lot of underestimation, too.

Amazing but that's not quite what I meant, cool though. Poses where if someone drew them you would think they totally messed up because the human body can't twist like that.
