Photoshop Troll Who Takes Photo Requests Too Literally Strikes Again, And The Result Is Hilarious (31 Pics)
Be careful what you wish for. That’s what you have to keep in mind when talking to Photoshop Wizard James Fridman. Sometimes, it feels like James is the incarnation of the Monkey’s Paw that makes you be careful with how you phrase your wishes.
Whatever the truth might be, this Photoshop troll entertains us all by taking people’s requests to edit their pictures quite literally. He also adds his own unique comedic twist to the photo manipulations. We’ve collected some of his best newest work, so scroll down and enjoy! Oh, and don’t forget to upvote your faves (and we’re pretty darn sure you’ll like a lot of James’ hilarious photos).
After you’re done chuckling at this list of hilariously altered images and if you’re still in need of some of the Photoshop Wizard’s magic, Bored Panda kindly invites you to have a stroll (or is that a scroll?) through our earlier posts about Fridman’s photo editing mastery right here, here, and here.

Wow! Those eyes! I think he's gorgeous. Any woman who would discount him for his beauty mark has issues and needs to look within herself.

THIS!!! Cesar, I hope you see this - your scar is not only art, but it's awesome! You look like a Bond villian, or a professional model, or a cool video game character! Or Zuko! Celebrate this scar dude -- you're the only one that gets one. (Winnie Harlow is a bad-a** super model with virtiglio, and she rocks it. You look great -- don't doubt yourself.) Also James is rad :)

You're beautiful Cesar. I hope you realize one day that it's more fun when you're not like everyone else.

James has quite the fanbase. More than 1.39 million followers on Facebook. 1.9 million fans on Instagram. And a further 1.6 million happy campers on Twitter. That’s the kind of attention that you get only by providing consistent and quality entertainment.
Here’s the best part—James is open to requests and will happily edit your pics. Just keep in mind that your request might be made… public. Very public, in fact.
That’s why Fridman has a warning plastered everywhere: “Do not submit any personal photos that you do not want to be made public.” In other words, if you dare ask the Photoshop Wizard to cast a spell, don’t be surprised when you’re made to look like a fool. (Having a sense of humor and being able to laugh at yourself help quite a bit, we think.)

Load More Replies...And in case you think that being able to laugh at yourself is a bunch of New Age baloney, here’s a truth bomb for ya: scientists have found, again and again, that laughter helps you manage stress. Not just on a spiritual but also on a biochemical level.
Not only does laughter shut down the production of stress hormones (e.g. cortisol), it also releases “feel-good” chemicals like dopamine into your system. Feeling stressed out? Have a laugh. Or better yet, send in a photo for this Internet troll to edit. Just keep in mind that you have to give him clear instructions of what you want your Photoshopped images to look like. Monkey’s Paw, remember?

I thought she was standing in a hole but I guess she's actually lying down. lol, should have put her feet up so we all would know. I like the second photo though. lol
weatherwitch 5 years ago
If the first pic was taken by a professional photographer it's really poor to make her look so peculiar. It really does look like she's standing in a hole in the floor! It detracts completely from the portrait.

I think she wanted the reflection of the sky in that bean behind her to have her face reflected in it, having the buildings and sidewalk in place. Instead of sky in the thing, her face. For what it's worth, he was probably confused by the question too.

He forgot to put the recess back when he moved the guy in the blue tee shirt. There's 2, but the 2nd pic shows only one.

Because she is, her arms are also crossed which is a defensive stance. I wonder if they even actually know each other or he's just creepy & goes around get pics with unwillingness participants.

I think the first picture is hilarious. What's better than a photo bomber with that look on his face? And who takes only one shot? I thought one was supposed to take 200, pick the best and THEN photoshop it? 🤗

It may have started out as trolling but nowadays I'm sure most people send them in with intentionally vague requests just to see how he will "twist" them. Regardless of the actual reason, love his work. I especially like the ones where it seems that they sent them in due to low self esteem (like the one with the facial birthmark) and instead of fixing them he tries to bring their self esteem up.
