You've not flown Soviet style attitude indicators or you wouldn't have to ask a profane question.

Think of a god's eye view of the airplane from behind. The airplane symbol moves against an essentially fixed background unlike the US style where the airplane symbol is fixed against a moving background.

Here the ADI appears to be off and it is indicating a 45deg turn nose low. The symbols seem to indicate this is a MiG-29.
