All real except the last photo it was photoshopped. Notice how the bystanders that were in front of it are missing and there is a smudge there |

I saw this a couple of weeks ago and wondered if part of it was crafted.. |

Actually... I don't think it's fake. The reason is, the last two photos seem to be "stills" from a video camera, it's high enough quality that I'd say it's from a DV zoom. The photos that are crisp and clear are from a digital still camera. I make this statement based on my experience with my own still camera, and DV video camera. If I take stills from the DV, they appear somewhat grainy and smudged, just as these pictures do when motion is present. -Kevin |

Nupe, the last one's bogus. Notice the differences in the autos on the pier, the orange cone in the foreground, the yellow flag in the foreground, and the white dinghy moored to the tugboat. If *hours* had elapsed I suppose it's possible, but unlikely. Great story, though! |

That second crane doesn't cast a shadow either! Brian wrote: And this has to do with buses? It is a reminder to make sure and use a big crane if you drive off a dock! Cliff |

Hey guys, take a close look. The last phot was made using the 5th one. You can see the same people in front of the van. The small white boats are in the same locations. It looks like they tried to change it a little by erasing a few people. Take care and have a great day. |

OK, It's my turn Notice in the last pic, behind the falling crane the little green van that appeared Notice the white car seems to have been moved Notice the change of perspective in the entire pic Notice the white boats in the back ground have change position Notice all the people who have moved about If its a fake, someone did an emense amount of altering of the photo, far far more than I would deem useful or worth even for a prank Far too much "virgin" photo exists, too much camera angle change. you can see this if you place them side by side. Its a lucky shot, but its real |

Geobus is exactly right. It was made from the 5th photo. People are in the same position. Waves in same position. Also, the large green tower has a mirror attached to the top of the cab. The shadow cast by the mirror is the same spot when it's upright and when it's in the water. Dug 75 MC8 Arcadia, Fl |

Look at the charcoal gray mini SUV behind the second recovery truck. It changes back to the charcoal slant nose van facing the other way in the last picture. The van was in pictures of the red recovery truck. All pictures of the green recovery truck had the SUV except the last one. Maybe a book could be made of this type of bogus accident, like the find the differences between the two pictures puzzles. |

well, after more than a passing glance at these pics... yea. the last one is definitely fake. It's a good fake, but still a fake. The most damning evidence? As mentioned above... The 5th photo is the proof. But not because of the vehicles or things that have moved around.... Look at the two guys in white shirts.... the one looks like he's cringing and running away... and the guy behind him. EXACTLY same position on the last photo. Additionally, one thing that just doesn't lie between the two photos... The wave ripples. My first post was after just glancing at them... It LOOKS like a still from a DV cam... I didn't take much time to look closely. Oh yea... ED!! The "Cunning Stunt" is a fake too. You can see where they pasted in over the box or whatever it is he jumped on to make it look like he was jumping on the car... Additionally, they forgot to take the shadow of the box out. -Kevin |

Could it be that the two guys had some reason to run quickly, perhaps to the bathroom? Har har ha ha "One picture is worth a thousand words, put another poker chip down please" cd |
