Pools may rise up from the ground due to water pressure pushing up from beneath, though a valve installed in the base of the pool usually alleviates the issue.

But forget for a moment that this in-ground pool is now an above ground pool. Focus on the fact that there are two dogs and a cat hiding in this photo. 

That's the real story here.
