The outcome of that "surgery" was the models getting payed for their work.
Nov 05, 2012 @ 21:28:23

I am sure there are more "reality" historical photos around. I think a book is in order.

the last one isn't historical. it was made for a magezine.
Nov 07, 2012 @ 20:14:08
I wonder how many times that emergency scene HAS played out… but unfortunately in this case, this photo was staged for an advertising campaign:
http://www.snopes.com/photos/medical/klaner.asp
Nov 08, 2012 @ 02:25:54
Perhaps the last one was staged for a Large Magazine ad campaign?

I have never seen that black and white Beatles photo, thank you!
Nov 15, 2012 @ 03:34:16
The last one looks like the "Gotta Feed America" lady. lol
Nov 26, 2012 @ 20:19:49
I find it funny, even ironic that everyone likes the last picture, because its a fake.
its a shame than in a world where information is so easily accessible, that ignorance is so abundant.

i hate that people put false info out there. and everyone likes the heroes who took the higher road, thats why everyone likes the last one.
Feb 27, 2013 @ 23:37:00
Liking the photo is not parallel to believing it's real. Fake or not, the photo has a lot of value and meaning. However, pointing out others' perceived ignorance when none exists is an even more special kind of irony.
Mar 27, 2013 @ 13:46:04
Perhaps this is an experiment to see how many people will become fixated on the staged photo even in the presence of 19 other truly historic photos?
Nov 28, 2012 @ 03:44:37
Pretty cool stuff!
Feb 02, 2013 @ 06:04:12
The scariest one is the pope meeting with Hitler, is nobody bothered by that??
Feb 02, 2013 @ 20:17:19
Nope. Hitler was down with the lord.
Feb 02, 2013 @ 14:38:19
Really amazing!

Feb 20, 2013 @ 15:11:36
I like Osama bin Laden looking like the Partridge Family!

Apr 14, 2013 @ 17:53:33
Great Pictures!
Apr 23, 2013 @ 19:19:48
Last one is fake you guys.It's jaw dropping and effective but it isn't real. Do your research.
Apr 30, 2013 @ 02:43:55
There really does not need to be three or four pictures of the Beatles.
Apr 30, 2013 @ 02:48:41
the beatles are really hogging all the history in this one

What is ironic about people liking the last photo?
May 05, 2013 @ 04:41:21
The best way to stop the hate is to show the love.
May 05, 2013 @ 04:43:09
It's really a shame that in a world where information is so easily available it's also so easily manipulated. The fact that it's not real makes no difference, I like the idea =)

May 06, 2013 @ 05:54:32
lol, Anna, can you say "derp"? It's fake. Michael even provided the link. copy/paste, my dear.
May 06, 2013 @ 05:56:33
English, motherfucker, do you speak it?
May 06, 2013 @ 19:08:02
I actually remember when this came out. It is a ad for a magazine. It is a staged photo to make a point. The magazine I think was named Large. Great photo, not an actual event.
May 11, 2013 @ 17:55:02
Michael Sharp. Where were you on this one? slipping my friend. slipping.
May 16, 2013 @ 14:57:12
How do we know it's a fake? I haven't seen documentation one way or another.
May 16, 2013 @ 15:02:33
Yes, someone deliberately cut off the bottom that shows with the campaign slogan. Without a doubt this situation has happened, but it does bother me that someone apparently made the deliberate decision to misrepresent this picture.
May 16, 2013 @ 19:50:31
Yes, Anna, it is fake.
May 17, 2013 @ 17:05:25
Nice!
May 18, 2013 @ 18:04:18
The picture of the bishop with Hitler is not Pope Pius XI nor any Pope…
