Yes, these and the moon landing pics, all photoshopped.

And Marilyn Monroe did not OD,


I do realize that there is a lot of devastation in Texas right now, but this wouldn’t be first time the news folks have embellished a photo. Isn’t the hood of a Raptor close to the same height as the top of the bed? The water in the back looks much lower than the top of the rear tire to me. I really didn’t mean to offend anybody by pointing out that this particular photo looks a little strange to me. Hope all the folks in Texas are getting all the help they need right now!

Am I the only one who thinks this picture doesn’t look right?

Keep in mind that this truck is plowing forward many thousands of pounds of water and…

They can drive through water that is 4.5 feet high, but the hood and windshield are able to remain totally dry.

The water being plowed forward and lifted at least a foot or two is calm and dead flat.

That kid is able to casually ride out the window without hanging on with his hands while the truck is in Bulldozer mode.

The guy on the phone is just standing and not hanging on or even leaning forward against the truck.

For some reason the water level looks 18” at the rear wheel to me.

I do know that the devastation in Texas is legit, just not sure about this photo!

Or the road isn't level! The van's rear is higher than it's front which might indicate the truck would be on higher ground. Of course the Van might be rocking a dragster stance for some reason too.

You guys are looking at this all wrong.

Him and that cargo van are like, "land ho! Load up them TVs!"

His homey is on the phone getting the play by play on the fight,

Apocalypse conditions for sure,

Sorry to challenge the pic and I hope I didn’t actually offend anybody.

You guys made me feel a little guilty, so I just made a $100 donation in direct Hurricane Harvey relief via eBay/Paypal.

And yes I did Photoshop the transaction ID off the pic…HAHA


I’m done chiming in about the picture now!!!
