To Walk Up Or To Walk Down?

  1. means it's ready to step on top of that step therefore it's going up ?
     
  2. 'Therefore'
     
  3. Niiiiiice Raine. :lol:

    ?Cubes, if you look at the top of the picture it looks like the cat is walking down. However, if you look at it from the bottom it looks like it's walking up. :shock: So confusing.
     
  4. It's like the white and gold dress all over again?

    As of right now I'd say down. Simply because I think that the background is an open doorway or the sky, and the way the stairs look.

    But the background could also be the ground?in which case it'd be going up the stairs.?
     
  5. Up.  If it were going down, those would be some steep stairs.
     
  6. :lol: a picture has a thousand words but in the end up the day the original Photo is logical and in this one its all about perception the cat can be going up and down it all depends on how you see it.
     
  7. Down. Look at the decorations on the stairs, there's a little part that sticks out. If they were the part of the stairs that you would step on, a thousand people/cats would trip and fall. And usually decorations are put under the step. Also, when a cat goes down stairs, their butts will not be up in the air as this will cause the animal to be thrown off balance. Tail up suggests the animal is going down. Tail down would suggest the animal is going up. The cat is going down the stairs, folks.
     
  8. Cat is clearly going up... the guy taking the photo is at the top of the stairs and do to the fact there is no opening at the bottom one could only assume that the solid color at the "bottom" is the floor.

    Ur welcome
     
  9. Up. The bottom looks more narrow. If the cat was walking down with the angle it is at, gravity would pull it head over heels.
     
  10. in my point of view: neither but the case is, when you cover the right wall the shade/shadow of the left wall will give that idea of the cat walking down and it goes the other way around ?
     
  11. Down because of architectural reasons. The wooden lining of the steps are indented. The mosaic design also gives it away as designs are typically shown to a person going up the stairs rather than down. The upper part could easily be the ceiling or wall due to the angle of the photo.
     
  12. And also when a cat is going upstairs they use both front legs. When a cat is going downstairs they alternate left and right legs.
     
  13. It looks narrower due to perspective of the photo. If your logic is correct, the cat would be the size of a hippo.
     
  14. Its heading down,

    The tops of the stairs are nailed in place with a slight over hang as you see in the picture,
    If it was up you wouldnt see that hang.
     
  15. didnt some1 made a thread abt it earlier
     
  16.  
  17. I would say upstairs, 1.when a cat come down it has a little arch in the back. 2. The way the stairs aren't made the design looks like cat is coming up. Idk just my theory though
     
  18. Up? Down? It doesn't matter! What matters is that, that building gets a freaking elevator!
     
  19. I just noticed that if you look at the stairs on the left side of the cat, it'd look like it's walking up.  And on the right, it'd look like it's walking down because of the way that the wooden part that's sticking out is different on either side.
    Anyone else seeing this? ?
