On second look it's obviously a photoshop, but still hilarious. Well, the last two anyawy. They changed the color of the arm of the truck in the last one. And the green truck's lights are still on and perfect with lots of photoshop smudge tool. Plus there's suddenly 3 trucks in the water, instead of just the supposed two. Why would someone fake that? It's funny enough the original crane fell in.

The last photoshop was really really crap. Probably wasn't done by the same people even. Just someone extending the joke.

It was trying to pull a motorcycle out of the water, which had fallen in when it tried to pull a bicycle out of the water, which had trying to rescue a submerged tricycle which had gone in after attempting to rescue a pair of rollerskates.

#6 and #9 are the same photo #9 being photoshopped, #8 and #10 are the same #10 being photoshopped. The rest look legit.

Unless of course the bystanders can mimic the same position they were in at least a half hour beforehand

I also love how the last crane is exactly the same as the 2nd crane, only colour tweaked. Wouldn't the last crane have to be even bigger to extract 2 cranes and a car?

It's been a couple of years since these were first posted here, but they're still funny.

It's funny how these emails resurface... as if somebody's going through their INBOX and starts forwarding old emails again.
