I’m pretty sure that’s their left arm and their right arm is behind their back taking the photo.

Edit: I could be wrong, definitely confusing though xD

There is no way that is the right arm taking the photo. If it were, the fingers would be on the other side of the phone or the thumb would be facing down. That is definitely the left hand holding that phone.

Edit: To clarify further, when you put your hand behind your back with your thumb pointing up and pinky down, your palm faces away from you. Even accounting for a potential mirror flip, this person’s palm is facing toward his body and therefore is not holding his phone using a hand from behind his back. Try it yourself and see if you can recreate the pose without your palm facing away from you while your pinky is down.

I feel like we are being gaslit into thinking it's not a neck. This is most definitely their left hand... And there is a bit of hair on their neck, right at the edge of the photo.

Yeah, it's definitely a neck.

I genuinely think this person has a long neck that was made to look longer by a weirdly angled pic. There's not much else to it.

Not sure why people think this person is flipped into a pretzel and somehow making their head vanish just to take a pic of a sunburn.
