Hoax Photo Test
A rather light hearted post for those who have a few spare minutes - simply click Real or Hoax (Answers provided at the end.)

And no cheating

7/10

I knew a few of them, like bush and the book. And i knew the photo of the wtc was fake cuz no camera could survive that. Plus it would have been in the news.

yeah that wtc picture isn't even close to being real. whoever did it didn't do a good job. The plane is coming in from the wrong direction, apparently it's not even the right plane, and i think the guy in the picture is wearing a winter jacket.
