He's got to be hopping *off* something! That can't be from off the
ground!:eek: We obviously can't see more to the left to show what he
jumped off of.

The light is from the right in the picture, which should put the top of
his helmet in the light, but it's in the shade.

I assumed the intent of the shot was that he was jumping OVER the car,
not off. Of course, he could be plummetting from the 73rd floor, too.

At least he will be able to outrun the cop in the "toy-car" parked on

where does the shadow on his arm come from? The correct answer is:
photoshop.

I thought it was a very good job. You can still tell it's a cut and
paste, but the selection was done very nicely. Start with higher
resolution images, adjust the rider to match the lighting of the scene
(some of this can be faked) and make sure there aren't any halos around
the edges.

Or just jump off a car! Still photos can lie about how you landed. :)

I see a fuzzy shadow on the hood of the car, and a crisp shadow from the
light post and the man walking. Plus if the rider is jumping off the
top of the car, his shadow wouldn't be on the hood anyway.

The sun. Which was in a different location in relation to the rider than
it is in relation to the rest of the image.

Yeah... easily noticable that its photoshoped by looking at the
shadows.

I only bothered looking to see if it was fake when other people said it
was fake. Dosnt look impressive at all to me, looks like hes just
dropping off the car.

I'm digging the 2 diffrent shoes, I'm glad I'm not the only one that
does that when you brake one of your shoes.

I think you will find his shoes are not different... They are a pair
exactly the same.

Shoelaces are minor, I once used safety pins in their stead.
Yes, that was stupid.
anyways,
Thank you for reminding me that the glue on my shoes is set up now:D

:( I haven't been able to go gliding all day(stupid cheapo shoes that I
had to tear into with a knife to get them to fit gave me an opportunity
to learn unispins)
