I’ve seen the faked picture before. I don’t know if it is a good fake or a bad one. I don’t care. To me it is the product of a sick mind. I can’t see anything funny in it. Can anyone explain to me what’s funny about it? Billy? Anyone?

Maybe it’s because I’m an airline pilot but I just don’t get it.

Chen, I did not see the link to Penthouse. Sorry.

wow, please allow me to explain the way i saw it me:
did you remarked the way i said it in the first post.. "i wonder how the guy felt when the plane crashed into the building " is because the pic was not taken that day and probably the guy who took that pic, he also fake it. the guy could not feel nothing since he wasnt even there in that day. i thought it was obvious the eye i put there to make all of you understand. sorry.

why is it fake:
1. the date digits are made with a free font, "digitizer" that you can get at freefonts.com.
2. both planes hit the buildings at a 40degrees angle.

if you notice in the pic the plane is straight, and the digits are obviously faked. that is what made me laugh.

Thank you, Firefly. For those of us who lost friends or relatives on 9-11, that was a sick joke.

i agree with you anime. many people died in this tragic event. i imagine the burden others had to live that day and after. i look at myself, helping my mom who is sick of cancer. i care alot for her and i dont want to lose her. i stay home with her every day and try my best to make her feel good with her life.
in the first post above, it was my english that got missinterpreted in the wrong way.

It was a Hungarian guy who faked the photo:

Quote:
A few weeks later, a Hungarian man named Peter staked a much better claim to the "Tourist Guy" crown by supplying the original photograph of himself (and other similar snapshots from the same session) and revealing that he himself had created the infamous "Accidental Tourist" image.

First I've seen this and it brought tears to my eyes. I hope that we continue our efforts towards Anti-Terrorism and that every country involved works with us to reach this goal!
