I guess you could make a plane for that.

but why does the landing look so fake?

That cannot be real.

i'm siding with fakedom. those conspicuous "camera shakes" and "signal loses" make it look like someone is just trying to cover up transition inconsistencies between changing media.

Yeah, the landing looked VERY weird. And until the very end I kept thinking this was a small model airplane

I like how it says "Killa" on the wing.

That's pretty horrible, actually. The first 10 seconds look real...until you re-watch them after watching the whole thing.

Yeah that's fake as fuck, the biggest giveway is the fake camera shaking at the end

Wonderbanana · Post by **Wonderbanana** » Fri Nov 14, 2008 1:38 am

Aw well...

The F15 one is impressive though

How about this...

Flight of F-16s dodging surface to air missiles without chaff or flare. Just dodging.

I actually think it's not bad at all. It's clear it's edited and all, but good job.

Why do you hear radio chatter in the background?

And yeah, the landing is computer animation. We have now entered an age where seeing no longer is believing.

Ed Oscuro · Post by **Ed Oscuro** » Fri Nov 14, 2008 11:13 pm

I would tend to agree...That said, the small plane struck me as a model, not CG, but it's still computer-edited.

Snopes tends to agree with me:

It's a fucking viral. A GERMAN GERM! :P

(That Dutch video is amazing. A++)
