About

Adiós Wormhole is a reaction image macro series featuring an image edit of a man in red shirt and red shorts stepping through a wormhole.

Origin

The earliest available version of the original image was published by the website Cuded[1] on September 12th, 2012. They credit the image to the Imaginary Foundation, "a think tank from Switzerland that does experimental research on new ways of thinking and the power of the imagination." The original image features a person walking through the wormhole with a bag in their hand (shown below).


On February 7th, 2020, Tumblr [2] user crtter shared the image in response to a screenshot from the video game Pokémon Go. The post received more than 128,000 notes in less than one year (shown below, left).
