It sounds like exactly the kind of maneuver JPL would pull.

Oh sure, when it's a dog doing it, it's his "talent". But, when I do it I "need serious psychiatric help"...

Reply to I got insulted badly by many people because I believe this video is real. They call me extremely dumb, retarded, etc. But the video seems completely real to me. I think it cannot be faked. Can you explain to me why this video is fake? Or if it is real, can you explain why this video cannot be faked? by Kingaz123
- It is shot in a wide fov, making it look sorta surreal, but this is common especially on GoPro/action cam footage.
2.you can clearly see the shadows of the bikers, the foliage and the shadow of the bridge on the water on the right. It would be difficult to realistically emulate the natural shadows. Not impossible by any stretch, but would certainly take a lot of time and effort.
- Despite this, I can't find any mention of this waterfall or this bridge except people posting this video.
Conclusion: no reason why it couldn't be fake, but also no reason I can think of to fake such a thing. It's not a particularly interesting video or one that seems to have gotten much engagement, there are many actually scary or dangerous looking bridges in the world you can find footage of if one were just view-farming so why bother going through the work of making a fake one for very little reward?

So, you believe the ratcheting up in rhetoric regarding Taiwan as of late and the historic re-election of Xi for a third term, increasing Chinese nationalism, the purging of dissidents are just ghost stories? Man, that's some pretty strong Kool aid you've been drinking.

Lemme guess, this will add to their supposed claims in S. China sea...
EDIT: "...between 47 and 115 miles (off their coast) on the Taiwan Strait"... Oh gee, I wonder why China might want to invest in infrastructure megaprojects that far out in that region...

Reply to TIL that in the 1980s musical "Chess", the American's fortunes change depending on which version is being played; in the West End version, he quits the match and loses his World Championship, while in the Broadway version, he discovers a tactical edge and gains it. by London-Roma-1980
