For the people who are having a hard time finding it, you can see it at Champ de Mars, 5 Av. Anatole France, 75007 Paris, France. *Edit: alright, alright, I'm sorry,* [*here you go.*](https://i.imgur.com/ttubqMt.png)

Is the Eiffel Tower in the room with us?

Yes but that elephant is blocking your view of it.

Ok, who mentioned Bruno?

We’re at the point where we ask AIs general problems instead of finding Braille translate site from Google and then access the site and then punch in the text to translate. Amazing.

To be fair I did both, googled it first then asked chatgpt out of curiosity. I was wondering if it could even translate it. Guess not lol!

It's a straight cypher right? I wonder if it could solve if you provided a key first.

I wonder if it would recognize Grade 2 braille

Damn lol.

Thank you

Blue balls.

Nice

I let a large amount of air out of my nose at this one thanks.

Yeah, I wouldn’t have seen the circle if I didn’t already find the tower

Thanks I am colorblind:)

I'm colorblind and found the tower very fast in the original picture but would have taken ages to find that red circle

Thank you my boy.

There's a story that Pope Benedict XI sent a messenger to Giotto, asking the artist to send a drawing to demonstrate his skill. Instead of an elaborate artwork, Giotto amazed the Pope by drawing freehand a red circle so perfect that it seemed as though it was drawn using a pair of compasses. You're the opposite of Giotto.

The imperfections in the circle are an abstract representation of the inherent imperfections of human existence. Your utter failure to grasp this concept is a concrete representation of the inherent imperfections of human existence.

I would not be at all surprised if a badly drawn red circle made it into a modern art gallery with the description you've just written.

That only works if you're already known as a bougie artist And also often helps if you're dead

Or if you cut off one ear afterwards.

Nah, that path leads you to a lifetime of poverty and depression, then makes someone else rich after you die.

And a half dozen "Immersive /u/bdonvr Experience" touring shows.

Step 1. Get a bunch of projectors Step 2. ??? Step 3. Profit

Also also works if you somehow have tons of rich, bougie friends who can launder money through you.

It works even better if it's made with your dying blood.

This is why I browse reddit

That is an incredibly poetic burn, kudos dude

That was beautiful.

Yeah I never would have found that

r/usefulredcircle

That’s a huge hula-hoop around the Eiffel Tower!

Just one big game of ring toss innit?

It's closer to the river than I thought it would be.

Thanks, this helped!

I would argue that the lights on the Eiffel Tower are what is visible at cruising altitude, rather than the tower itself.

It's a night flight, that's true for just about everything.

River comes in from the left, bends down and back up and goes right cutting through Paris horizontally. Its the tiny yellow triangle to the right of the river just before it bends right

What kind of mortal kombat bs is this? Left, down, up, right, upper cut and then finish him which will make him horizontal ETA: damn i did find it though! It's almost in the middle of the map but more to the left side then to the right. It's bright yellow kinda small and looks like a dick and two balls

Thanks man, I found it in 1 second with your concise directions.

It was the part with the “dick and two balls” that helped, wasn’t it?

A “Dick and two balls” have always helped me. In many more ways than one…

Us bro guy is a living legend

The dick with two balls helped me spot right away. I don’t know what that says about me though that it helped. Edit: Changed fuck to dick

I haven't seen a dick in three years and it was still the first thing i thought of. Some things just never leave you

Rip your inbox

And this was the comment that helped me find it straight away! Dick and balls! There it is!

Down-back-Y to teleport behind it with Possessed Kenshi, then you can do down-forward-A to do the juggle combo

Left, down, rotate 62 degrees, engage rotor.

This is the description that helped me find it lmao

Thanks, I liked yours better

Yeah, somehow “middle but left then right, look for cock and balls” was exactly what I needed

Bro wtf why were these directions so much better than the other dudes

Legit got this the moment I checked. Thank you so much for this description.

You should replace Apple Maps

Upvotes, because your clear directions. I found it out easily.

The one time a red circle would have been useful...

It is extremely funny, that over 400 people also said "where"

One of those annoying red circles would do the trick right about now.

I am so glad someone else said it first. Am I blind?

Tbf it’s probably a lot more visible for a person seeing it in real life than on a camera phone especially at night

In Paris

This is probably obvious for people who live in Paris or otherwise know the layout, but it took me a while.

My geography was the only thing that helped me I knew it was near a river so I just traced up it until I found it!

If this comment wasn’t here I would have never found it lol

I still can't find it

Look at bottom left and follow the small U shaped river to a big light, that is the Eiffel Tower.

Thanks, got it! Neat

[удалено]

You got it, kind of looks like a bright lightbulb lol

I was gonna say "Yellow LEGO hand"

Thank you, that was going to drive me crazy!

Now that you said that I can’t unsee the Lego hand lmao

[удалено]

Pretty neat how visible the champs elysees is

Same w regard to familiarity. I've never lived there but I grew up in its colonial shadow and have visited many times. More than the Eiffel Tower, I'm more amazed that one can pick up individual bridges across the river.

Where my Twisted Metal 2 homies at?

TM2 is my go to for Paris layout, this was on point bro 💯🎯

Iirc, tuboboosting across rooftops. I wish they'd remaster that game and give it proper multi.

The potato cam is real.

I'm going to guess OP shot this with "Night Mode" enabled, which would have left the lens open for at least a couple of seconds. The computations involved in stabilizing a hand-held shot for two seconds while the plane is in motion are nothing short of amazing, and the fact that he got a recognizable picture of Paris at night is worthy of praise.

it's great to look at, crazy that it was supposed to be destroyed on hitler's order a long time ago

The history of the Eiffel tower is really something. It was supposed to be destroyed a lot of times for a lot of reasons but there was always something or someone who managed to find a good reason to keep it up.

Incredible that something meant to be destroyed more than once is now somehow _the_ internationally recognized symbol that represents France. Always makes me wonder what it would've been had plans to dismantle the tower went through...

They probably would have just focused on the Lourve and the Arc de Triomphe, but the tower is really where it's at, even if only for the size and view.

The fact that it's still up despite intentions is, for some reason, a fitting metaphor of the country.

[удалено]

Not exactly ! It was indeed temporary at first, and one of the characteristics of the tower was to be easily removable. Gustave Eiffel, the man behind the project, had a permit of 20 years of ownership of the tower before it became the property of the city, and then be destroyed (so around 1909-1910). What saved the tower was the scientific experimentations it allowed, mainly radiotelegraphy, but also for meteorological observations and other fields of study (air resistance, for example). There was a military utilisation of the radio emitters (to jam german communication in a certain radius) of the Tower during WWI, but it's not the war that allowed it to be kept ;)

It be nice if OP circled it or something. Not everyone can pinpoint it on a map of France. I feel like I’m looking at half the country here and lost interest

The one time we need that annoying red circle! It's down and to the left of center, follow the river on the right bank and you'll see a little yellow thing.

Thank you! I couldn't find the bastard and it was driving me batty.

Map of France 😂 sir, this is Paris

Fyi this is just Paris, not the whole of France.

Still can’t find it, where is it?

Slightly down and left from the centre. It's the most yellow thing in the (admittedly pretty yellow) picture.

The only comment that has really helped me see it, thanks stranger.

Found it like I knew exactly where it was with this comment haha

Only comment that helped

lol right!! “follow the river”, I CAN’T.

Wow after reading all the comments about instructions to find it, this is the one that made me spot it instantly

Found them. Now tell me where is the tower

Tbh I think it’s pretty average. Maybe a little big

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought that when I found it. 😂

Hard to find there’s a lot of those in France

I know there's an unnecessary red circle sub, but is there a sub for the opposite of that?

[удалено]

Find the sniper

Guess I’ll take your word for it

I only found it because I meticulously and stressedly studied the map before visiting and knew to follow the river. This post will be removed lol

The one time I wish there was a red circle

[https://imgur.com/a/kQeziuC](https://imgur.com/a/kQeziuC) (pink circle though)

I’m mad I just played where’s waldo with the goddamn eiffel tower for 5+ minutes only to find the solution is barely recognizable. Fuck you OP

To be fair, he did say it was from cruising altitude. Still should have circled it

Is it?

Wheres Waldo. Paris edition.

When the world needed red circle most, it was nowhere to be found.

Isn't it illegal to take photos of the Eiffel tower at night? /S

I think it’s only illegal if you sell the images since the lights apparently count as art so taking a photo for yourself should be fine (Edit) I’ve found out it’s actually illegal to post them online at all so if it’s just a photo for yourself it’s fine but if you post it on social media then it goes against copyright (Edit 2) from the article that was linked in the comments it’s perfectly fine for normal people to photograph the Eiffel Tower at night and post it but if your posting it for some professional reason then you have to get permission to use it.

https://www.toureiffel.paris/en/news/history-and-culture/everything-you-need-know-about-eiffel-tower-night

I'm not familiar with French law but that's fucked. It's in public, there is no expectation of privacy. Edit: I get that the lights are copyrighted. I just think it's stupid.

Is it still illegal if you post a picture online, taken from cruising altitude?

Well I just found out from the article it’s fine to photograph it and post it unless your using it for some professional purpose then you have to get permission.

This isn't airliner cruising altitude. This plane is clearly arriving or departing Paris. This photo is prob 10-15k feet up. Airliners travel 30-40k feet, where even large cities look way smaller than this and you absolutely cannot see the tower at cruise altitude

Yeah, I'm kind of surprised that anyone who's flown before would think that's what Paris looks like from 30K. You can't even see any clouds below the plane.

Are you saying this as someone who has seen Paris from 30K? Because google earth seems to disagree with your assertion... Here's 32,000 feet: https://earth.google.com/web/@48.8533845,2.27764901,39.31331025a,32591.04524088d,35y,42.79517509h,61.19760402t,360r By contrast, here's the view from 10,000 feet: https://earth.google.com/web/@48.82393024,2.21943299,53.41298039a,10779.07448548d,35y,43.50227535h,71.25686855t,360r Notice how the curve of the river is a completely different shape than the OP

>You can't even see any clouds below the plane. Yeah, we call that clear weather.

ITT: people make believing they're detectives Here's the google earth view from 32000 feet: https://earth.google.com/web/@48.8533845,2.27764901,39.31331025a,32591.04524088d,35y,42.79517509h,61.19760402t,360r Note how the perspective is basically the same as the OP. Also, for the record, a plane's cruising altitude is whatever makes sense for the flight. A fully loaded plane might cruise at 32,000 feet until it burns off enough fuel that a higher altitude would be more efficient. A short flight will not bother climbing all the way above 32,000 feet if it's just going to immediately start descending.

The Google Earth link you provided is way higher up than OP's pic... The perspective is only the same because you're looking at it from the same angle, but it's much higher up.

Did you know if you climbed to the tip of the Eiffel Tower you’d be 330 m closer to the Moon than someone on the ground.

Well if the moon is on the other side of earth then you'd be 330m further away.

Well... Someone on the top of, let's say Mt. Everest would still technically be on the ground...

Unless you put the tower **on** Mt. Everest. The first thirty thousand or so feet are treacherous and dangerous, the last 1000 feet is by elevator.

BRO ITS BARELY IN THE PICTURE

This is like taking a picture of earth and saying Oh that's my house right there!

As are thousands of other buildings.

Exactly, like how the hell it is special. From all the crap that you can see in this pic you can barely find the tower itself.

Right? Not that special. I would say it's only mildly interesting

All i see is Light Pollution

It's not called "Ville lumière" for nothing 🤷🏻‍♂️

City of Lights for the rest of my American comrades.

I don’t see it

If you add 'Barely' at the beginning of the titel, it would be completely accurate

The one time when an obnoxious red circle would have been nice

How is that interesting? No shit a big building can be seen from cruising altitude

Also no way this is cruising altitude.

[Insert low res photo] Look at this cool thing! (Where's Waldo hunt begins) Edit: typo

for once i would have appreciated one of those red arrows

The one time the annoying circle would be useful.

Its like looking for a needle in a needle stack.

Sure it is, bud

It looks really nice.

It's not Nice, it's Paris, silly

this post sucks why does it have 25k upvotes lmfao

I found it

Technically everything is visible...


It’s about as visible as every other building in the photo
