The fake 9-11 photo

Post by FaxModem1 »

The one where it shows a guy on a building as the plane comes behind him, does anybody have that photo and the story behind it?

It likely started on Something Awful or Tribal War forums.

It's the standard poor-taste joke showing off photoshop skills, except it messed up some key details.

There are now like a million images all over the net of that guy in various points of history...behind Hitler, at the Hindenburg crash, with dinosaurs, etc.

I like the later ones that make fun of that fake photo. Especially the one with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man in the background. :)
