Mother Nature can do some amazing things. Sometimes, she’s a real terror, but she can also be a fan of all things cute. This next creation is just plain cool. Spotted in Japan, this cloud reminds us of a familiar sidekick to a street rat from Agrabah.
The picture above was posted to Twitter with the caption, “This cloud is too macho.” Although it does resemble a muscular body builder flexing his stuff, the wispy tornado bottom reminds us of a genie coming out of a lamp. The sun shining from behind makes it look even more magical, as if Aladdin just rubbed the magic lamp after discovering it in the Cave of Wonders.
