You can see the search results vanishing in the air, similar to how the characters vanish at the end of the last Avengers movie when Thanos snapped his finger.
‘Avengers: Endgame’ is the sequel to last year’s ‘Avengers: Infinity War’, where Thanos, the ‘Mad Titan’ snapped finger that killed off half of the Marvel universe.
Now Google is capitalising on this opportunity and has placed an easter egg for the finger snap into its search algorithm.
Now, you can type in the search term ‘Thanos’ on Google on any of your devices. In the search results, you will see the ‘Infinity Gauntlet’ on the right-hand side. When you click will on the Infinity Gauntlet, this will run a snap animation with half of the search results vanishing just like in Avengers: Infinity War. You can see the search results vanishing in the air, similar to how the characters vanished at the end of the last Avengers movie when Thanos snapped his finger after gaining access to all the stones on his Infinity Gauntlet.
The interesting bit is that even the Wikipedia page for Thanos will disappear from the results. To get back the results, you can simply click the ‘Infinity Gauntlet’ once again, which will glow and make all the results reappear.
People loved the surprise thrown by Google, here’s a snippet of it shared by a Tweep:
