2. Faaaaaake

No way a pilot risks something like that going into the engine.

Also the stall speed on that aircraft is around 160mph, so good luck rolling the window down.

3. Well,

It is a nice photoshop.....

4. I don't see a space that the window can roll down into...and I've never seen one of those window...

roll down handles on an jet (or any airplane).

8. Figure of speech.

The one to the left may fold out, IIRC.

5. Here's the side-by-side with the original photo...

No, this isn't the world's greatest selfie. Though it might be if it were real.

As you can see from the original untouched photo on the right, this selfie is totally fake. It literally says "perspective" on the plane, so despite the fact that so many people are taking this as real, one has to believe that the creator clearly made it as a joke not to be taken seriously.

6. You know some idiot will think it is real and

try to duplicate it. People can be stupid in a herd.

7. Ya think!

11. Here is how it really works...

"The plane was packed when, at 17,000 feet, the windscreen blew and the captain was sucked out. Nigel Ogden, who saved him by hanging on to his legs, tells his story for the first time to Julia Llewellyn Smith."

12. that is pretty funny, I like the comments under it

16. I knew this was fake because there is no screen on the window. I don't think you can take the...

screen off from inside the plane.
unless the plane is in an area where there aren't many insects, such as mosquitos, and they took the screens off before takeoff.
