Flight 447 pics - Hoax

I'm posting this one because firstly I was surprised to receive it from someone who should have known better, and secondly, I picked it up first on News24.com which gives me a little bit of hope for the SA MSM. Apparently not everyone is sleeping or just a BEE appointee.

You may received photo's by e-mail purporting to contain two photos attached that were apparently taken by one of the passengers in the aircraft of flight 447, just after the collision and before the aircraft crashed. The e-mail claims two photos were retrieved from a camera's memory stick. In the first photo, there is a gaping hole in the fuselage through which you can see the tailplane and vertical fin of the aircraft. In the second photo, one of the passengers is being sucked out of the gaping hole.

It's a hoax, just delete the sodding thing.

The hoax is not even original and dates from an October 2006 posting by Brazilian blogger Carlos Cardoso, which he later revealed as an attempt to show that people are not sceptical enough of what they find on the internet.
