This ship legit looks like its FLYING in this crazy optical illusion.

This ship looks like it's either the new Flying Dutchman or someone sprinkled fairy dust on it:

The cool optical illusion was captured off the British coast in Cornwall.

Called a "superior mirage," the illusion happens when warm air above denser cold air bends the light reflecting off an object through the atmosphere.

As someone who grew up near a large body of water, I can tell you that illusions are pretty freaky, but I've never seen anything quite as insane as this in broad daylight!

Off you go, captain! 'Second star to the right and straight on 'til morning!
