Messe Kopp (http://www.youtube.com/user/Gzkopp), a filmmaker in Israel, has created a mind-boggling video featuring a mesmerizing "reverse" walk through the streets of downtown Jerusalem.
For the video titled "Forward," Kopp was filmed walking backward through the city, partially undressing and getting hit with a bucketful of water and a faceful of cake, before finally falling onto a waiting mattress in an alleyway.
In the final clip, however, that footage is shown in reverse.
According to PetaPixel, Kopp spent "countless hours" conceptualizing and planning the video (http://www.petapixel.com/2013/03/18/a-mind-bending-reversed-stroll-through-downtown-jerusalem-shot-in-one-take/). However, the final 2-and-a-half minute clip was reportedly taken in just one take.
Kopp's video has already been viewed more than 2 million times since it was uploaded on March 18, with many netizens praising the clip for its creativity and mind-bending aesthetic.
"I love this... can't stop watching it," wrote (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6jprOZ29wY) impressed YouTube user "ergooden" on Thursday.
On his Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/messekopp), Kopp has acknowledged the outpouring of support for his clip with words of gratitude.
"I just wanted to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart. The kind words & the sharing of the video is very much appreciated. I have never received so many compliments in my life in such a short time... My mind is trippin'," he wrote on Wednesday (https://www.facebook.com/messekopp).
The original video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CF5hyITJjZg) of Kopp moving backwards has also been posted online. Watch it here and tell us what you think in the comments below:
