I don't think the artist intended for this to be a realistic image...

It doesn't have to be realistic, but when the physics makes no sense it is rather jarring.

It's art not a science experiment. Salvador Dali images of melting clocks goes against the laws of physics too. Perhaps you're just in the wrong sub reddit.

Eh, it’s art, it’s okay to critique it. A piece of art will appeal to some and not others. Honestly the first thing I saw was a giant girl with a basketball covering up her crotch. Then I realized it was an umbrella. Then I though it looked a bit like Times Square but then is she in the building. It’s just an okay gif. I have seen others on here I like a lot more but to each his own.

I get it, the subjectiveness of art allows those critiques, but simply stating that you hate a piece of art because the physics aren't right ( previous commentor, not you) is a very limited view of art and while they are absolutely entitled to their opinions and views, i feel that utilizing such a literal mindset as a justification to why you think a work of art is shitty isn't fair to the artist and belittles the work the artist put into the piece.

The irony of my comment here is that using that same logic anyone can justify or criticize what I just said the same way I am currency trying to justify my veiw point. Art is funny like that.
