Situated beside an isolated road leading out of the semi-derelict town of Baker, Nevada, the dead horse driver is exactly what it sounds like.

A horse’s skeleton sits propped up behind the wheel of a rusting antique car, its hoof resting casually on the dashboard. It’s clearly just a case of someone living in a small and empty town with way too much time on their hands (although others have suggested it might be an art project).

But, seeing it for the first time, it’s almost impossible not to imagine the horse was just out for a cruise and simply pulled over to admire the view.
