GIFs are their own language on the Internet -- short-looping clips that express emotion, reactions and say so much more than words at times.

But the real winner is the reverse GIF. By simply playing the file backwards, you can turn a jar of peanut butter back into its pristine state, transform rescue missions into cruel acts and make a fall look like a magical act.

So the next time you see a really great GIF out there in Internet-land, check it out backwards using EZ GIF, then make sure you submit it to r/ReverseGIF for all to see.
