Google Earth Strange Sights

Google Earth is definitely an application that is fun to play around with. Chance is that you will stumble upon some strange sights sooner or later. Plugins make the discovery process easier and it is surprisingly easy to load and find interesting places using those plugins. They basically provide everyone with an ability to load places directly in Google Earth.

The Strange Sights Google Earth Plugin is a collection of interesting sights that users spotted in Google Earth. Sights are divided into categories like “Only from the sky” with sights that can only be seen from the sky or “Virtual Sightseeings” that lead you directly to the Victoria Falls and Mount Everest. They also got a crop circle category for those that are interested in the occult.

Users who would like to give this a try need Google Earth and the Strange Sights plugin.
