    "A photo from a camera with pictures that had been taken on the trade building of a tourist and the plane is heading behind him to hit the building. The camera was found by rescue workers and developed. It is hard to believe it when you see it and wonder if the person taking the picture realized the plane was going to hit the center. They still don't know who the person is."

    No wonder people jumped all over this image, but it didn't take long for some people to start to see problems with the image. Some of the key problems where the following.

    -The plane in the picture is a Boeing 757. The only American Airlines plane that crashed was a Boeing 767 of flight 11.

    -The picture shows the approach of a plane on the northern side of one of the towers. The only plane that came from the north was the one that hit Tower 1 ... but Tower 1 did not have an observation Deck. Tower 2 does ... but it didn't open until 9:30 a.m., well after the first and second attacks.

    -Why is this guy wearing a winter jacket? September 11, 2001 was a warm, Indian summer day (65 and 70 degrees). The top of the Trade Center might be cooler thanks to wind, but it's unlikely this guy would be wearing a winter jacket.

    -Why isn't the fast-moving aircraft blurry in the photo?

    The question of who was the tourist in the photo also sparked some discussion and to see if the actual person in the photo would come forward. In Decembed 2001 a Hungarian named Peter came forward and provide another photo of him for the same day.

    The photo of the Tourist Guy shows the Brooklyn bridge (bottom right) and Manhattan bridge. The picture carries a date-stamp nearly four years before the WTC attacks.
