    Possibly Youtube.

    *DING!* We have a winner! That's exactly what he's doing from what I can see. Used to work the ToT years ago in WDW and you aren't dropping when the pic is taken. This pic was taken from the photo preview just when you exit the ride; the posted photo I mean. It'd be hard to do as there isn't much to hang on to up there. Besides you can't float that high during the drop, trust me.

    And yes we have cameras on you for the drop zone area and watch you like hawks. Although we had lap bars and not seat belts at WDW. People would try to crawl from under them fairly often though, and they were were very easy to check. Even then I'd get kids only pulling them down 2 inches.

    This has to be sooooo fake. Its not even dropping when the picture is taken. Correct me if Im wrong but isnt the picture taken in the middle of the shake sequence right before the drop? Good photoshop though.

    I don't even think it's Photoshop. It's just a bunch of guys who rehearsed and pulled off a stunt. The guy "floating" is simply hanging off of the rafters of the cage.

    First of all, it is a prank and it has everyone here talking, with that said, all I know is I think it's a great prank photoshop or not.

    IMHO, not Photoshopped (I checked the lighting and drop shadow transparency, and it's spot on), but definitely holding himself up from the top, due to the physical evidence around him.

    But, still stupid, especially because it encourages others to be just as stupid (or more-so) for 5 minutes of idiot fame.

    It's amazing what is possible in just one year.

    It is fake. Did you see Mythbusters test the Youtube video when the man goes down the waterslide into the wading pool?

    I love this place. Where else could you find phrases like "drop shadow transparency" in a non-technical site. Love it!
