85 Gedanken zu „Gläsernde Toilette

  1. hove

    I’d like to see how one way it is at night.. unless you go in the dark.

  2. Mike

    There’s also a bathroom exactly like this in front of the Tate Britian museum in London. Great place for sex

  3. Rob

    Can’t be real – not even one graffito. Be great to stroll by about 3:00 am and give it a good rap with a ball-peen hammer, you know, just to check the specs.

  4. gjzm

    Be intersting to see how it works at night. With the inside lights on… one way mirrors become transparent when there is more light coming from behind them than from teh reflective side.

  5. MattyMatt

    I’m curious about whether you could see through the mirror by peering through a polarizing lens; PLs filter out certain reflected light rays, and are generally used by photographers to eliminate reflections on shiny surfaces. And now that I think of it, I’m also curious about who would WANT to surreptitiously spy on pooping strangers.

  6. wozza

    lol 🙂 I’m not sure I could use that.. I’d feel very…… weird?

  7. Avatar

    I’d say it’s definitely real… I’ve seen a similar thing in a nightclub once, only it was in front of the men’s trough – so as you’re peeing, you’d see everyone outside right in front of you, but they couldn’t see you.

  8. G3K

    People would walk by, point and laugh, creating the effect that they were laughing at you while you’re on the toilet, even though they can’t see a thing. Sily.

  9. Roderick

    Hihihi… That’s a great idea! When you know someone’s in there, to point at the glass an burst out laughing!!! Great post DocX!

  10. Daryl

    There was a restaurant in Minneapolis that had toilets like this in the late 70s. People did point and laugh (on both sides of the glass)

  11. scooby

    I don’t believe one way mirrors work well enough. Couldn’t you simply put your hands up to the glass and peer in?

  12. DocX

    Hi, the picture was passed on me. But according to rumors it is to be on the fairground.

  13. dope

    High-quality one-way mirrors don’t allow you to see through them, even if you put your hands up to the glass and peered in. Police interrogation rooms have these kind of one-way mirrors. This toilet most likely has this type of mirror.

  14. nope

    do high-quality one-way mirrors allow you to see through them?

  15. Samo

    but the lights are dimmed nearly completely on one side of the interrogation room and hard light is used on the other. :/ i doubt it would work at night.. assuming it didnt, it wouldnt be possible for people to meke bebies in there at the prime time for doing so, and muggers and baddiefolks wouldnt be able to sit and wait for victims.. there my 2 cents anyhow :3

  16. Dayv

    I’d like to see one with the glass reversed…

  17. RO

    I’d luv to trap Crea in it for at least half an hour, the things we could do in half an hour!!!

  18. Ahtnicaj

    Hey Jacintha what wud u like to do in the glass loo?

    u can say anything u like!
    remember…. don’t be shy! 😉

  19. jade

    why is the woman in the picture not reflected in the mirrored door? Look at the edges of her pants and the edges of the mirrors…all look like they have been edited digitally? same thing goes for the toilet. looks like it’s been added into the picture. So guys, i think you can stop looking for this toilet, it doesnt exsist. yet.

  20. Ahtnicaj

    Its all to do with the angle the pic was taken from Jade, from our point of view, her reflection would be directly behind her!

    Oh Jacintha… where r u?????????

  21. jade

    it’s not possible for a reflection to be behind an object because a reflection is always the same angle away from the mirror that the object is. And the inconsistencies with the pixels along the edges of the woman and the whole toilet cubicle structure show that both pictures have been edited.

  22. Ahtnicaj

    Ok, i’ll believe u Jade, u seem 2 no what ur talkin about.
    Where u from?

  23. jade

    i’m from singapore. i work as a designer, and i work alot with pictures and editing them, so these flaws really do catch my eye. anyway, i like the idea, whoever came up with that is quite ingenious 🙂

  24. Ahtnicaj

    yea, the concept is brill, would imagine ur head to be wrecked if u were to try a real one out.
    Would u try it out if it existed, Jade.

  25. Rob

    Naw, this whole thing is bogus. 1) There are no door hinges or handle showing in the two cubicle sides visible in the right picture. So if you think about it for a minute you will see this means that the toilet fixture must be in one of the two rear corners. That means that one of the two sides we are looking out of in the right picture must the rear wall. Compare the two pictures as though you were looking out the rear wall, and you can easily see that the backgrounds are totally bogus, because at least some of the background in one picture would be showing in the other picture, and they are completely different (compare shadows). 2) If all four sides were two-way glass, then the light coming in from the side facing the sun would light up the interior considerably. Anybody standing outside close to the opposite side would be in the shade, so by putting their face next to the glass they could easily see in. That’s all, gotta go.

  26. Nev

    I’m sorry, Ahtnicaj, your desire to debunk has gotten the better of you. The reason you don’t see hinges is that all-glass doors do not use traditional hinges at all. The use a top and bottom pin hinge which isn’t visible from either side. The woman holding the door handle is actually slightly to the side of the leading edge of the door, meaning that her reflection wouldn’t be visible unless the photographer moved a couple of feet to his right. The toilet is probably located in the corner directly opposite the door handle, as the view out the glass is different than what you can see in the outside picture, this means that the part of the surroundings you can see from picture 2 is behind and to the left of the cube as visible from picture one. My final proof is that there is a reflection of part of one of the signs on the big building to the left in picture two: the green rectangle with the circles. The lower right circle has four black dots, which you can see reflected in the outer wall of picture one. Also, all the internal reflections in picture two are consistent. Nice try, but it looks real to me. (And in re the idea that you can see through the mirror if the sun was illuminating the inside might be true if this were regular one-way mirror glass, but there are types of glass you simply can’t see through no matter how hard you look. I used to work as a glass etcher, and I’ve seen and worked with it.)

    Oops… the last comment should have been directed at Rob…

  28. fuckingtest

    If that toilet was here in the U.S. it would be impossible to see through the windows due to the excessive feces and graffiti that coats out public restrooms.

  29. Blah

    Matty Mat is right– look where the woman is standing. You do not see her because she is not directly between us and the mirror.

    This toilet is a great idea. I think it would revolutionize the way we think of ourselves when we take a dump. Imagine how this will alter the unified consciousness of mankind if everyone had this new perspective of himself and others while sitting graciously well-postured on such a toilet.

  30. :rolleyes:

    hahahahaha

  31. nohope

    I’d like to have sex in there.. Would be like having sex in the open, but still private. – The ultimate (safe) experience

  32. slick

    MattyMatt, if this were real, then the reflection of the green rectangle with the circles and the black dots off the mirror would not be as large as it is. The size of the reflection makes that green banner appear far closer than it actually is as we see in the picture from the inside. Unless you’re now hypothesizing that it’s some sort of special magnifying mirror.

  33. jeff

    Yea, I was hoping someone would clear that reflective woman issue up as I was reading down.

    I didn’t read the BBC story, but it does look real to me as well. As far as the pixelated edges, that is probably just a bad compression or resize of the picture.

    However, there is one thing I’m curious about. Why is it that the man in the olive suit in the reflection appears to have a double behind the woman as well. The tip of hair sticking out, the position of his right foot, and the white streak of light through his right should all look identical to the full reflection. I’m not saying this thing isn’t real, but that part seems odd to me.

  34. jeff

    oops, nevermind, I see now it is a differnet glass panel, re-reflecting all of that. For being so observant, I missed that glaring detail.

  35. padster

    It’s real.

    I work in visual effects, have done for 15 years, I’ve had a close look at this and it’s real. No tampering. All „inconsistencies“ mentioned above have simple explanations but I can’t be bothered to write them up just now.

  36. Sanved

    Well in India it is a regular scene. One can piss in the open coolly and you can see the whole world as well as whole world can see you coolly without any botheration. Its a great experience if you havent yet done that.:)
