Is that abcnews image photo shopped on an angle to make the stalls larger and the probability of feet touching less likely?

Why are those guys crapping with their pants on?

Who lays title in a “V” pattern?

One side is a mirror image of the other!

It’s not just the angle... the entire picture is a copy-and-paste mirror image. It’s the same pair of feet, flipped horizontally, with the pants color tweaked and a couple of minor edits to make it look different.

IMO, If you look at the center divider, you'll see it thicker at the base (floor). This means that the photo was taken with a wide-angle lens angled slightly upwards. The wide angle distorts objects and distances and yes, it makes the distances at the floor level wider and the divider base thicker. This could also be confirmed by the unusually intersecting (normally parallel) tile lines.

IF ABC wanted to show the real distances they would have used a 50 mm lens (normal).
