Those of us who went to college can remember the amazingly fun times we had with our coursemates. However, I doubt that, in our spare time, any of us did anything as weird as one band of students from the Czech Republic.

A group of Czech students has the weirdest understanding of leisure we’ve seen so far. They decided to recreate weird and bizarre scenes found in illustrations from medieval books. And we know how strangely artists from the Middle Ages saw the world around them.

So scroll down, upvote your favorite recreated scenes from Medieval paintings, and remember to share with your friends (they’ll have a hearty laugh, we promise). Oh, and do let us know in the comments below which of these hilarious photos you like best and why. Scroll down to read Bored Panda's interview with Dr. Catherine Harding from the University of Victoria and Professor Claire LaBrecque from the University of Winnipeg. When you’re done with this list and if you still need your dose of medieval art weirdness, take a look at Bored Panda’s list about how ugly cats in paintings from the Middle Ages are.

Impressive flexibility. Now, if she can grab her ankles, that would be circus level of flexibility.

    Gotta admire the medieval-style bed. It illustrates the saying "sleep tight" because loose supporting ropes might not hold the third person bringing toys and hoping to join in the fun.

    I've found the original picture without this black square and I think this way of censoring is way over the top. The wooden stick covers everything what could be NSFW.
