Carrie Exposes Plane Crash Pics As Fakes


Carrie, our resident super sleuth, has found proof that the photos of the plane with the tail breaking off are fake.
That makes her the 'Employee Of The Month'

Snopes, the leading site in proving or discrediting photos and stories, has matched the lady in the photo with an actress from the TV show 'Lost'.

Also, the tail markings are incorrect.


I did my own comparision. Here is the original photo.



And here is a close up of the woman's face alongside the actress's face.



Here is some of the text from Snopes.

The images have nothing to do with that tragic accident, they're screen shots from the pilot episode of the popular ABC television series Lost. Actress Evangeline Lilly, who portrays the character Kate Austen in that show, is clearly identifiable in the left-hand side of the first photograph. Also, the tail section shown breaking away from the airliner in the first photograph bears the logo of the fictional Oceanic Airlines used in that TV series.

The full story is here.

And since we're being so honest, I should probably mention that Carrie had an unfair advantage in the 'Employee Of The Month' competition.

You see, what happened was...

Well...

Maybe it would be easier if I just showed you.

That's right. I agree completely.

It wasn't the shirt!
