The hand looks like that of a young person. They are showing off, which is fine. It's their life. But as they age, they will learn, and gain the wisdom to know that intentionally bending your joints the wrong direction leads to even more joint problems. Just because you have flexible joints doesn't mean you should flex them more than they should normally be flexed.

Photoshop.

Look at the palm in relation to the finger knuckles.

I think the hand pic is real.

C'mon, with fingers bending backwards from what is clearly the palm.

Double jointed people can do that. The only question is can they do that with enough finger strength to counteract the double jointed thumb pushing from the opposite direction?
In this picture, the wall is pushing the fingers into that position. And I don't think this hand could hold a soda can, even though it can be put into that position.

But in this picture the fingers are doing it under their own power. Are they doing it with enough strength to oppose a thumb? Maybe. Maybe not.

I believe it's real. I can match the fingers-against-the-wall picture without any effort, and I'm not even double-jointed, just really flexible from years of popping my knuckles backwards.

Pushing against the wall is one thing but to stay wrapped around that can they must be glued or taped in place. I don't think he's holding up the can, more likely sitting on the keyboard.

Heh. I didn't even notice the keyboard. It's obvious now that the weight of the can is on the keyboard. But I still think the hand is real. It's just not holding the weight of the can.

I thought the finger knuckles looked too normal to be bent backward that far.

On the face of it, this is a standard issue WTF photo.
Who, after all, would build a glider in an attic?

It's a replica of the glider built by British POWs in Colditz Castle which was intended to be launched from the roof in an escape bid.
The attempt was never made as American troops reached the Castle before the glider could be used.

A few years ago, Channel 4 TV made a documentary about the escape plan and constructed a full size replica of the craft using the same materials and techniques.
Unlike the original endeavour, the replica glider was flown but, for safety reasons, it was radio controlled. It reached a meadow on the other side of the river from the castle and would have flown further but the decision was taken to crash land the craft due to houses nearby.

There's some video of the flight here taken by a spectator.



ETA Flight viewed from a different angle.

The cloth (?) covering on the plane (visible in the 'related videos' thumbnails after the vid plays) looks exactly like Grandmadigr's table cloth.

Found it...

Quote:
The glider constructed was a lightweight, two-seater, high wing, monoplane design. It had a Mooney style rudder and square elevators. The wingspan, tip to tip, was 32 ft (9.75 m), and it was 19 ft 9 in (6 m) from nose to tail. Prison sleeping bags of blue and white checked cotton were used to skin the glider, and German ration millet was boiled and used as a form of dope to seal the cloth pores. The completed glider weighed 240 lb (109 kg).
