I'm just curious if i'm the only one getting this. I went to find a picture of a Dark Souls character and the first few results where what I expected.

The rest where of some scene from russia or something, some kind of car accident and every image is the same. I checked MSN and it's fine, it has no issues. But google does.

Is anyone else getting this or know what it is?

You're right. O__O

It's definitely East Europe, because the sign in the picture is Cyrillic for "Stop". But if you click the pictures, they expand into... Dark Souls pictures.

The thumbnails are fake.

Plus, as well as the car acciedent, I'm getting a bunch of thumbnails of an NBA spokesperson...

This is some creepypasta stuff right here.

EDIT: Just searched for "Stock Image", go the same thing happening.

Clearly a hack, and a really weird one.

EDIT EDIT: According to this, the NBA guy is Kevin Durant.

Literally the only connection I can come up with is that his buddy recently started dating Rihanna, who was famously assaulted in a car.

...yeah, I got nothing.

Perhaps it's only local to Canada? I see you're both from there. Here in Europe it seems fine.

Yeah, it's been hacked:

And the pic is apparently from a two-year-old drunk-driving/manslaughter case from Russia.
