See http://www.snopes2.com/rumors/crash.htm for more info on why this is fake.

DaRKCrow-

I read in the LA Times that the building has more reinforcement/structural strength in the center than the corners and, therefore, hitting a corner will cause more damage. The Times said the terrorists knew what they were doing and called them "evil geniuses."

By the way, your door ding notation just gave me an idea. I have a ding I need to take care of and was going to schedule the Dent Wizard to come out. We could probably get a better rate if we had both our cars done at once. $125 for one ding, probably $150 for two. What do you think?

That looks clearly fake, not even close to convincing.

DaRKCrow-

$175 -- and I'll still split it down the middle with you. We need to give about two days notice and leave open a four hour window, like 8-12. The guy can come to my parking lot on Walnut and I can call you when he starts in on my ding. (I think we're subverting this thread.)

Actually I heard that the background is that of the view from the Statue of Liberty which could be wrong. Personally not familiar with the New York area. But I definitely feel it was photo shopped. The guys face is too straight in the picture.
