The photos were posted on Sandro’s Instagram account and recieved a lot of hits on it. What might come across as just a series of silly images actually have a strong message behind them. Read on to find out.

Taking The Fall

Satirical in a hilarious kind of way, the photos are reminiscent of that exact moment when a person falls. To make it look even more dramatic, Sandro’s series incorporate the entire material possessions of the fallen, scattered around them like a garage sale.

The Message

The images are no doubt absurdly funny, but they have a strong message behind them about materialism. According to Sandro, the depiction is of worn-out characters whose mind and body had blackouts so intense that they crashed into whatever was around them. The blackout is a result of the exhaustion of everyday life that involves being oprressed to look presentable and forgetting to exist in the process.

Instant Instagram Fame

While the faceplants of this kind could be very injuring at first, knowing that these are just actors posing makes the pictures all the more fascinating. Sandro has more than 29,000 followers on his account. The photos are gaining popularity mainly because they seem to tell full-fledged stories about a world of falling down.

Revealing Personalities

What truly stands out about Sandro’s shots is that even all you can see of the subject is their back, and a lot of secrets about their personalities are revealed with their falls. The idea is that even as they begin to fall, they are more worried about protecting their prized possessions than themselves.
