One woman was in an unusual situation, where she was photographed in the exact same spot on Google Maps nearly 10 years later.
Leanne Cartwright, a 41-year-old U.K. mom, was captured by the Google Maps camera car on a street corner back in 2009, The following reports are available:New York Post. According to the news outlet she was later captured by Google at the same spot in 2018.
One-year-old mother had seen the Google car first time so she knew she was on the corner. But, the second time she saw it again, she said she didn’t know.
“Richard [her husband] found the second one while he was at work because he was looking for the first one. He was going to send it to me and then he realized I was back on it,” said Cartwright in a Facebook post, according to the LADBible.
The images are practically the same, with Cartwright in the same exact place holding her bags in the same hand. The only differences are the clothes she’s wearing and different shops behind her.
“I’m standing on exactly the same paving slab and I’ve still got a bag on my shoulder. It’s so funny but so bizarre,” said Cartwright in a Facebook post, according Tothe Daily Mail.
Cartwright is enjoying the attention, and jokes about being in a one-in-a-billion situation.
“People probably think I’m a time traveler. I could be the only person in the world who they’ve caught in exactly the same place almost a decade later. I’ve had loads of likes. It’s been funny reading the reactions,” said Cartwright in a Facebook post, reportsDaily Mail
While she made it twice onto Google Maps, she unfortunately didn’t make it into the new 2020 pictures, as she was working from home during the pandemic, reports the New York Post.
