The gears are on the wrong side. Submitter = photoshop FAIL.
Actually.. it’s a Barbie Bike. It’s not even a real sized bike.
Plus there aren’t any shadows. And you can’t fail the photo’s creator. There’s always SOME way to know it’s photoshopped, no matter how good you are.
true, but *vooooomit*
this
is
HORRIBLE
can happen and has happened. in fact i have seen it happen rather funny friend broke his nose
Believe it or not, a similar accident happened to me on June 20th 1998. I was wearing no helmet, and almost lost my right eye becauses my glasses broke.
so I can laugh to this picture too 
be it photoshopped or not, it remembers me of how lucky I am 
I still can laugh when I tell about this, because I survived
I know exactly where this is. It’s in Portland, OR. on MLK Blvd. The bicyclist is heading South, the building behind it is blocking the sun, which is setting behind it, which explains why there’s no shadow (and that fact that in the PacNW we hardly ever see ‘the yellow orb that burns us’). Why would someone photoshop it into a shot of a furniture store when they could just use the actual pic in whatever it’s original setting was to begin with?
way to make a picture sound like a riddle, PDXR.
Hactually there is a glare of him in the window
and there doesn’t always have to be a shadow
what if theres little sunlight
stop being so up yoursef david baliey
being able to clearly cut out a biker image and remove the white edges FAIL
Flipped photo?
plus, look around his shoes
appearantly yo didnt know that a bycicle could have left hand drive did you its custom made
White fringies around his legs- further evidence of Photoshop FAIL.
BIKEMONKEY- correct brand name capitalization FAIL.
is that all some people do, expose photo shop pictures, some of us like to lauph at these pictures. (this probly will not make you think its real but look in the window, his reflection has the right amount of distorshion correct to the slight bend of most shop windows, you can also see part of the reflection mostly coverd by the support)
Lindstrom: can you seriously not tell that is a photoshoped picture? the reflection isn’t distorted, just smaller. the front gears are on the wrong side of the bike making the chain cross from the left to the right side. also, cyclists wear cleats to stay connected to the pedals. there’s simply no way his feet would be in the air with the bike down on the ground. feel free to laugh at the picture; just know that it isn’t real.
Most of the crashes I’ve seen or been in the rider has clipped out of their pedals.
However, the physics of that image is completely wrong, as the wheel would be much closer to the cyclist, the bike would be rotated much farther, and there is no cause for the front wheel to come off in the first place. The creator fails at making a fail.
Justy – Since it’s used as an action and not a proper noun it loses its need for capitalization.
Umm, what’s that odor, you say?
Why that’s the smell of in-correction FAIL, my friend.
Ha! I recognized that corner immediately:
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Portland,+OR,+United+States+of+America&ie=UTF8&ll=45.524935,-122.661291&spn=0.004352,0.010965&t=h&z=17&om=0&layer=c&cbll=45.52275,-122.661773&cbp=2,253.10832276913033,,0,7.304464019902639
Also, yes – photoshop fail
Lauph = Spelling FAIL.
Also should institute FAIK tag
I’ve been there. not at all a fun experience, and then I had to walk home. epic self-fail.
Thats actually happened to me before. It sucked.
That hurt.

PhoooootooShhhhhooop!
His body has flipped way too much for the bike to be in that position at that time.
Travis: I totally recognized that corner too. Lovely furniture store, hella expensive. Go Portland!
Also noticed that it was portland, lol. i like how everyone who’s from portland sprung up with excitement that we reccognized it.
PHOTOSHOP FAIL !!!!
This guy is just about to acquire mastery over The Force, don’t you see the glow? That’s more like a win to me! I just wonder why the part of the picture showing Yoda has been cut off…
Stephan = Star Wars Nerd FAIL!
do any of you self appointed “expert” photoshop identifiers see the reflection in the window?
Yeah, it is just a blurred copy of the biker and bike.
I’m actually going to agree with the photoshop conspiracy theorists, much as I hate to. PDXr is right about the shadow of Fishel’s, and the probable lack of sun to begin with, Anon2 is wrong about the physics, Stephan is right about the guy being about to acqure mastery of the Force, but careful inspection of the reflection strongly suggests to me that the reflection is not a mirror image. Also, what IS up with the drivetrain being on the non-drive side of the bike? I’ve worked as a bike mechanic (actually about 6 blocks from this scene) and never seen anything but a chainring mounted on the left of a bike (tandem). It wouldn’t be impossible, but you’d have to make two derailleurs from scratch, and seriously modify a hub to make this happen, but there is no reason to do that except for the sheer hell of it, and this guy looks like he’s too busy doing complicated dental surgeries to waste his time milling derailleur parts. I’m guessing this picture was cobbled together by a Mercury staffer. Better yet, the Willy Week. Nobody that works for that paper rides a bike.
LOL XD I RFLOLed because I did this once, apparently, my bike is not designed to jump curbs :/ and it was one of those really expensive bikes too
mh kind of same happend to me.. gut i did’t a front flip …
by the way.. the reflection in the window isn’t real. it would show the other side of the biker.
but it’s already clear that that’s a fake. but a funny one
Wow! a Barbie bike acrobatics! I must try that!
Look mum, no front wheel.
that intersection is a major fail. just across the bridge from my bar.
I’m guessing since your name is methking, you work at Dante’s, your name is Mike D, and you’re about to open for somebody cool.
Woot! done that on dirt…
ENDO BABY!!! Been there, done that! Broken collarbone + neck!
Photo shopped, the dude was cut out of another pic. Wheres the front weel?
Dude. There were only 35 other posts. Would it kill you to read a few of them before you post?
What’s a weel?
wonder if i’d stay so perfectly posed while flipping over my handle bars.
Well…his reflection is in the shop window…is that photoshopped too? =/
OMG! it’s a street!
