A Guy spray-painted Airforce 1, WOW*, Presidential Graffiti....... all on Tape

[[email protected]]

I was impressed when I found this one. A guy named Mark Ecko penetrates
Airforce 1 security, makes it to the President's plane and spray-paints
it with Graffiti, wow, and was not busted. He could have easily
attached anything he wanted to. In this case it was only black
Spray-paint. You got to see this:

Read the disclaimer at the bottom of the page, it reads in part:

"Therefore, and by reason of the foregoing, the producers, creators and
distributors of this video hereby verily certify that the foregoing
fictionalization and dramatization was not real."

I know some folks want to believe that the active duty military is a
bunch of morons, but that video would have been a real stretch even if
it was real.

Yeh, but except for that disclaimer, how will you convience
The-Sky-Is-Falling crowd it's not real? Do you expect they are going to
take the word of the people who produced it?

I think the director who filmed the fake Apollo landings in the studio
should denounce this video.

There is absolutely no way I can top that. You win!

I was reminded of the whole Apollo thing by a recent Red Bull TV
commercial. <G>

I'd rather have thought it sprung from whole cloth in your fertile
(fertilized?) mind. You've ruined everything!

I know this is coming late to the game...but here are a couple of
things...If you know the aircraft and Andrews Air Force Base, this is
NOT Air Force One.

Air Force 1 is never parked that close to any fence accessible from off
the base. Most likely this is a 747-100 or 747-200 that has been
painted like Air Force One for a movie or television program. The most
recent repaint I can think of was a 747-200 that was repainted and used
in a few films...including the movie Air Force 1 and season 5 of "24."

Also, if you look closely at the video, the aircraft only has one
communications antenna on the top of the fuselage. The real Boeing
VC-25A's (there are 3 if I remember correctly) that are used for
presidential travel have many sat and RF communication antennas on the
top of the aircraft:

There is also no lower entry hatch near the presidential seal and no
refueling "bump" on the nose.

Then there is also the disclaimer on the site and the complete lack of
any coverage in the news. It would be hard to keep something like this
secret.

Cheers.
