A floor guaranteed to give you the heebie jeebies trying to cross it. It is a flat carpet.

I wonder if my dog will figure that out if I used this carpet at home.  ;D

Reminds me of the 3D pedestrian crossings being trialled in Iceland:

A screen grab rather than a photo...

...but it fits here rather than anywhere else on YACF:

I was looking at Facebook today, and was thinking "I don't remeber Phil Lynott's hair being that spikey..."

Is it some kind of tribute to TV's Daniel Ricciardo or is that where he got the idea from?

They spend billions to get all the brightest brains looking for them at CERN and all the time they're in Namibia!

Because Donald TЯump they were looking for them in Nambia, though.  Easy mistake to make, especially after a night on the covfefe.

This needs a little explanation. It's a poster in Tel Aviv airport. The writing, in hebrew says "I'm also a Duty Freak", with "Duty Freak" transliterated into the hebrew. Only. In hebrew, there are frequently no vowels, as here. Also, an "F" sound turns into a "P" sound with the addition of one of those dots that aren't there. So, in an alternative universe this poster has the (hipster?) proclaiming "I, too, am a Duty Prick"
