Okay, I was browsing around New York this evening and stumbled upon this:

So i had to ask myself, A: How the hell did they get that up there?
B:Who's going to be the maniac who flys it off there.
C: Isn't that illegal?

That whole area looks weird. Some of the buildings are leaning the wrong way. The image has been doctored.

When your not exactly 90 degrees above a building it distorts your view.
get above something and hold in ur middle mouse button and move it around.

but err, are you questioning its validity?

Doctored by Google?

doctoring an image like that would seem questionable to me, but it's taken at an odd angle, with teh building facing you. if you saved and flipped the image it may make more sense.

1. you've discovered the secret lair of the ''Redundant 7"
2. every other skyscraper has a shadow but the building with the plane
3. the white car to the left is emerging from ''under'' the building
4. i'm freaking out, man
5. my donuts are stored there

it could be a model or just show. even so, i a real plane could land and take off on the building still imo.

Lol, at first I didn't realize what were you guys WTFing about until I read Elgan's post. :?

But isn't this even weirder?

Seems like this is the exact spot where they merged 2 satellite images.

for the record, it's now six hours later and i'm still freakin' out after looking at that evil image. how can there be a loving God, i ask ?

i believe the faulted concept of math is to blame for that ....''thing''. only math would give a reason for straight lines. A+B=C ? f*** that. gimmie A->B through Z, thank you.

it's not that weird...

even if they merged it it'd still be weird to have that building with a plane on it.
