a 2 truck convoy

now talk about some tough driving

I've seen that before. Kinda cool, but it looks like nice computer work.

Actually I saw this on Mega Movers once on T.V.

:shock: :shock: Dayumm!! :shock: :shock:

I don't really know if it's real, or good computer work, but in all seriousness, I cant see how they could get very far with this.

Think about it; how would they be able to get on a highway entrance ramp, or turn a corner and maneuver under a bridge??

How could they drive down a back-road without having the entire road shut down??

I know that there are many of you who know far more about this than I do, and in this type of situation, you wouldn't need to know a whole lot in order to exceed my level of knowledge here.

It would be interesting to get some feedback here!!

How'bout it!

Its a real photo, I just looked in paint shop pro, 2 different drivers, 2 different truck numbers.


If its a fake, which I doubt, they would have done one heck of a job on it

[Mack2]

Nope it's not fake.

[DBW]

Cool pic. If it's fake it's a cool fake. Tires on the trucks are deflected pretty good, the shadows match, the scale of the truck being hauled matches that of the two trucks based on the size of the cab.

[Double R]

It's a fake. Two truck drivers can't agree on what color the sky is. There is no way two drivers could work together like that.

[Hat Rak]

The air tanks read "01" on the left truck and "02" on the right.

They must have been crawling along nice and easy.

[dollarshort]

It's real. There are many differences in the pics. Besides different numbers on the air cleaners, truck to right has a paper on the dash, truck to left has a passenger in the truck, truck to right has no chrome hub cover on right front, the lower air dams are different.

Pretty cool though 8)

Ive never seen anything like that either....but, just a thought, what if the trailor is just one very wide trailor with two king pins. That wouldnt make it to difficult for two trucks to coordinate the starts, stops, turns etc.

[RedRaven]

It is a fake... If you look at the passenger window of both big rigs, they have the exact shape light reflection (the diagnal white lines), across their passenger door windows... The truck to the left would block such a similar reproduction to the truck on the right considering the length of shadow created, and angle of the sunlight (looking at both trucks from a "head on" point of view)...

Also anyone can do a simply cut, paste of whatever they want to add to a photo, and also a simple cut, to delete something from a photo with either photo shop, or some other image software... But, it is an interesting image... :wink:

[DBW]

Those white lines appear to be mirror bracket supports. The shadow cast across the brackets are at slightly different locations which would result in the fact that the two trucks lean away from one another because of the crown of the road.

The reflection of the cab running lights are slightly different on the chrome sun visor over the windshield.

The truck on the right has a difference in the swinging panel beneath the bumper than the one on the left.

The mirror reflection on the two front bumpers are different.

The truck on the right has a reflection above it's right side headlight against the side of it's hood below the Peterbilt emblem.

The rightside fuel tank of the truck on the right is less shiney than the truck on the left.

The light shadow is different on both driver side mirrors.

The shadow under both rigs right side fuel tanks are different.

How come I feel like a phorensic scientist? :P

[Sheepdancer]

not fake

Fakes are really easy to figure out if you put it in a good photo editing tool like Photoshop, enlarge it to the pixel level, then look at the edges. Which I did. Its NOT manipulated.

[bulldog2036]

Amazing how the non-drivers here cannot fathom in their wee little minds that this is possible.....

[silvan]

If this is a fake, it's an outstanding one. I don't think anyone could ever actually be that bored.

I'm relying on my degree in Photography actually... :wink:

[KATMANN]

Please explain to me how the intenas on the left truck are leaning back a tad and the ones on the right are straight???

[Popeye]

Or how they got the reflection of the grass on the left trucks bumper, but only on the left corner of the right truck.

Degree in photography . Come on RR I used to that you were straight forward but lately I am starting to think you may be full of :dung:
