Google Maps is an incredibly useful tool that enables us to plan routes for long journeys, test our geographical knowledge, and just generally have a curious location.
However, one TikTok user believes that they spotted people while recently committing a crime.
The user, nicknamed ‘Content Dropped’, shared a video showing a group in Poland stealing train tracks in broad daylight.
The video explains: ‘You will not believe what I just found.
“I thought I saw everything.”
The user zooms in on the map and shows a group of people carrying train tracks in a wheelbarrow over a train track.
The video continues: “But they are literally stealing train tracks.”
It has now been viewed thousands of times, and people have commented to share their utter disbelief about what appears to be a brave theft.
One user said: ‘They need to have an internal connection in the railway business, usually the tracks are welded together.’
While another trusted the group more in the photo, he added: “Maybe they help replace it.”
But this is not the first time that Google Maps has encountered something strange. Not far.
The couple were on their way to a remote mountain road in western Taiwan on their way to some natural art and presumably thought the Google Maps car was the least of their worries – but alas, they were in the wrong place at the wrong time. .
The street view was first shared on social media, along with the caption: “I looked on Google to see if I would not find animals, and unexpectedly came across this amazing sight!
“Google Maps is the greatest invention ever – it’s bigger than God. Big Brother look. You’re making babies and now we’re watching you.”
They made it a little more sinister than necessary if you ask me, but hey-ho.
