Others pointed out it looked like a modern sculpture.
Former Army aircraft technician David Bowden posted pictures on social media, adding: 'It's all happening in Falmouth Sainsbury's.
'It is amazing, like a bit of modern art, or a collapsed game of Jenga.'
Mark Carveth joked: 'The winner of the 2025 Turner prize is a sculpture from Falmouth.'

Dawn Chittock said: 'Would make a great Specsavers advert.'
The incident happened at a Sainsbury's supermarket in Falmouth, Cornwall, on Saturday.
A tannoy went out in the store asking for the driver of the blue car to attend the car park - where they were in for a shock.
The vehicles were all recovered and no one was hurt.
Two people were in one of the vehicles at the time of the crash, but both got out of the vehicle uninjured.
Cops said the drivers swapped insurance details at the scene.
A spokesperson for Devon and Cornwall Police said: "We were called to Sainsbury's, Falmouth, car park at around 1.30pm on Saturday 31 May following a report of a three vehicle collision.

Former Zambia president Edgar Lungu dies aged 68
Mr Lungu's daughter, Tasila Lungu-Mwansa, announced his death in a video posted on the official Facebook page of his political party, the Patriotic Front. She said he died in a hospital in South Africa after having been under 'medical supervision' in recent weeks. Ms Lungu-Mwansa did not give a cause of death. Mr Lungu became president in 2015 to complete the term of Michael Sata after he died in office. Mr Lungu was elected to a full presidential term in 2016, beating current president Hakainde Hichilema. Mr Lungu later lost to Mr Hichilema in the 2021 election. Mr Lungu had sought to challenge Mr Hichilema in next year's presidential election, but a court last year barred him from standing. The court ruled his time as president from 2015 to 2016 counted as a full term and said he had, therefore, served the maximum length of two terms. Mr Lungu alleged there was political interference in the court ruling. His wife and other family members have faced corruption allegations. Mr Lungu claimed last year that his movements were being monitored by police and he had effectively been placed under house arrest to restrict his return to politics. Police said it was standard to monitor former presidents for their safety.
