and a bloody stupid place to lie down.

There is no way that a rod of piss falling from 30,000 feet is going to hit you at right angles in the groinal area if you are walking upright. Through teh skull perhaps. :dry:

Maybe they said it was a plane because someone was a bad shot with a javalin of piss. :whistling

(May 1999) This unfortunate woman was found dead on parkland in Yorkshire, England. She's believed to have been pierced by a shaft of frozen urine which had fallen from a leak in a toilet facility of an overhead plane.

I would say that pic is fake, look at the lighter glow around the (supposed) streak of piss,this would suggest the use of a bluring or softening tool. Also the POE is a bad cut and placed on top of the pic instead of being pasted then the orignal pasted over the join, giving a poor 2D effect. Also look closly at the part of the streak covering the trees, there's a blurred splodge on the right witch suggests difficulty in matching the background, here a common trick is to blur it out.It would appear that the picture quality has been reduced to help cover these traces.

Of course, I could be wrong and it may be just a poor quality pic, but zoom into the POE and you'll see what I mean.

:killjoy:

Good analysis tho don't you think?

Jonno :cool:

I preferred Biggles' http://www.sighost.us/members/danb/snooty.gif

actually Biggles is flawed, it's entirely possible that the forward motion and various wind properties could have given the streak that angle of entry, it's also possible that the victim slipped milliseconds before impact and was in the process of falling over backwards.

:P
