Check out these incredible pics taken in Perth, Australia and posted on Flickr.  WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING?

It looks like it MOVED from one pic to the other.  Am I losing it?  Please tell me it’s just a crane.  A water tower!  (A water tower in the water?  Please just humor me, TRED-heads.)  I know, maybe it’s an oil well– yes, it must be an oil well.  A giant, flexible, multi-jointed, living oil well.  It is certainly NOT an alien robot, right?. . . BUT WAIT — there’s more—-

Because just as I was about to crawl under the covers, drink some soothing hot chocolate, and watch the latest episode of Attack of the Show on DVR to get my mind off it all, I found THIS pic, also from Australia, this one in Sydney:

Now I know it’s called Down Under, but I didn’t think they were referring to the location of a duel between two Unidentified Fighting  Objects. Can someone PLEASE tell me what they see below that  bridge? Or should I just have my mom call the men in the white coats  to take me away now, and tell Sharkatron to find a new roomie for freshman year?
