That same chalk you used to write on the sidewalks with looks so smooth. But under a microscope, that same chalk consists of tiny skeletons of underwater plankton. Chalk can only be formed under extreme underwater pressure. How crazy is that!?

When you write with a pen you might wonder how it’s possible to roll on paper so smoothly? Well, when you get all up close and personal with a pen you can see exactly how a pen roll ink on to paper. At this magnitude, it looks like a newly discovered planet.

Is it a tire? or is it a funky music machine? We’ve always been curious about how records actually play music when a needle lands on them. Seeing a record under a microscope is truly groovy!

Just when we thought roses couldn’t get any more beautiful… Until we cut their stems and look at them under a microscope, then they become a natural watercolor we want to put on our wall. Mother Earth sure knows what she’s doing.

MEOW! This creepy picture might haunt your dreams. It’s pretty weird that a cat’s tongue is just made out of a bunch of smaller tongues. Don’t worry it’s just what your favorite kitten’s tongue really looks like.

We’re rubbing our eyes just looking at this picture! Little did we know our eyelashes actually look like some sort of scaly fish. We don’t know if we should be grossed out or fascinated.

Whale food is prettier than ever! Now that we see plankton is really just a glowing masterpiece. We could stare at these cool little creatures all day long. If only we could see their neon colors without a microscope.

We’ve all been enchanted by a butterfly soaring through the sky. Those beautifully colored wings really resemble the outside of a cantaloupe… how weird is that? Life would be strange if we saw everything at a microscopic level.

WOW! These alien-like creatures are definitely spooky to look at. Thankfully, when these little things grow they don’t get much bigger than 5 cm long.

The grass beneath our feet is actually the cutest thing ever. Who would have thought the grass is smiling nice and big when put under a microscope? Maybe that’s why rolling in the grass can be so fun!

When you zoom in on that TV screen you’ll see the most vibrant red, blue, and green. Think of your TV as a gigantic light bright you can watch your favorite shows on. But really these colors are quite hypnotizing!

Stepping in an ant pile is a painful discovery. Those little ants pack quite a punch when they get trampled on. Now looking at their faces all up close and personal makes them even scarier!

Sandy beaches are full of beautiful shells people love to collect. But if we had microscopic eyes we could see that sand is the most incredible shell of all. How cool is it that sand is really just a bunch of baby shells shrunk into the size of a crumb?

Juicy, sweet, and good enough to eat! Strawberries are absolutely delicious, but no one ever wonders what that yummy berry looks like all zoomed in. We noticed they’re a lot hairier than we expected.

Anyone picking up a sewing hobby lately? Well, this is what your favorite art materials really look like. It kind of looks like stringing someone’s hair together.

Those awful mosquitos that sometimes buzz in your ears have got some weird little legs. We all know those pesky bugs are small but mighty. It’s pretty crazy to see how fuzzy their tiny legs are!

The human body is truly bizarre. Especially when you look beneath the surface of our skin. Muscle tissue doesn’t sound very pretty to start with but this looks like some sort of monster dust bunny!

Fruit fly don’t bother me! Those little bugs that fly around our produce can be quite annoying. But we really wouldn’t want to stare into the eye of these little guys. When put under a microscope it looks as if they have needles coming out of their eyeballs.

This tooth was magnified at an atomic level! Who would have thought our pearly whites really look like coral when they’re all zoomed in? It’s amazing what the human I can’t see.

To think our entire head is covered in a bunch of weird noodle-like cells. It’s not every day where you get to see what your hair really looks like all magnified. The human body yet again creeps us out!

What’s sweeter than sugar? Not much. Now when you’re pouring that sugar into your coffee, you know you’re throwing millions of little gems into your cup.

Speaking of coffee… those little beans are far more fascinating than we think. Everyone loves a nice warm coffee on a cool winter morning and before you grind up those eans they look like a dried out honeycomb.

Wow! Our eyes can’t stop looking at this incredible dimension. That luck penny you picked up is really a million layers of copper. We’ll never look at change the same.

Stuck on you. Velcro can hold onto anything. What looks like tentacles and hooks in an underwater aquarium is really just an everyday fastener. Velcro really is really out of this world.

A dash of salt really looks like a roll of dice. Those little specs we love to put on our favorite dishes are really just microscopic flavor cubes! It’s truly amazing that these simple things look nothing like we would ever imagine.

AH! We almost jumped out of our seats just looking at this picture. It’s no surprise that these 8 legged creatures are even scarier up close and personal. These little arachnids are truly terrifying!

The dentist isn’t playing around when they tell us to brush our tongues. It looks like a germ musical festival or something. After seeing this picture we’ll be brushing our teeth/tongues at least 5 times a day!

We’ve all seen a rusty nail at least once in our lives. But we didn’t think rusty nails looked like something you’d find at the bottom of the ocean. There’s a whole new world under that microscope!

This is what the weave of a nylon stocking really looks like. Just thousands of little braided loops keep those legs looking better than ever. How cool is that!?

We’ve all put a staple in paper before. Now you can see just how interesting that simple task really is. At this point, we’re just mesmerized by the simple things!
