The 32-year-old man used a drone to record an entire humanoid town in Italy.

Pio Andrea Peri, 32 years old living in Giardini Naxos, Sicily, came up with the idea of ​​​​using a drone to record an entire town area, which he discovered was specially shaped on Google Earth.

Pio Andrea Peri filmed the ancient village of Centuripe in Italy revealing a strangely human-like form. The photo taken from above shows four long spans radiating in different directions like a person's arms, ears and legs are outstretched.

After first discovering the strange image on the Google Earth application, the 32-year-old man managed to move to the ancient village to start taking pictures.

Pio Andrea Peri said: "It was a difficult shot. Due to the height limitation of the drone, I had to use many small segments to see the whole scene."

After sharing on social networks, the video attracted a lot of attention. Some people think that the scene looks like a human figure, a pentagram, a swallow with wings. However, some people who do not believe it to be true have accused the photographer of fraud.

"A lot of people were amazed at the strange shape of the village, many people didn't believe it was real and they thought I drew the picture on the computer. But until they realized the truth by searching. Searching on Google Earth, many people have apologized to me. It took me about 2 hours to edit post-production after I finished the actual shots. I am very satisfied with the result, "said Pio Andrea Peri.

The ancient village of Centuripe has only about 5,000 inhabitants and is located on a hill, in the province of Enna, close to the volcano Etna. The head of the village contacted Pio photographer Andrea Peri to organize an exhibition of his amazing photographs. The village sits on a hill 730 meters above sea level, giving it a defensive position halfway between Catania and Enna.

The layout of the village dates back to the sixteenth century, once famous for its picturesque alleys. The village is divided into areas, winding stairs going down the valley. Standing in the village one can see the famous Mount Etna in the distance, as well as sweeping views of the surrounding countryside.
