VIDEO: Irish guy gives a terrifying example of what the new Snapchat selfie can do

Yikes

Good job it only lasts for a few seconds.

Snapchat unveiled a host of new features yesterday, but we’d imagine the one that most people have been playing around with since is Lenses, which allows users to have all sorts of fun when taking a selfie.

Snapchatters can now add sounds and animations to their selfies and they can distort their faces to make them look older, weirder, wildly out of shape, or in the case of one JOE reader, scary as hell.

Katie Hunt sent a video our way overnight of her friend Alex Donnelly messing around with the new Snapchat feature and we nearly spat our tea out when we saw it.

Was anyone else thinking of Cillian Murphy’s Scarecrow character in Batman Begins when they saw that?

We’ll struggle to sleep tonight.
