Tagging Air Force One
Status: Fake
image A video on stillfree.com shows a guy (Mark Ecko) spraying graffiti on Air Force One. This involves him avoiding armed guards, climbing over fences, and then sprinting across the tarmac to write "Still Free" on the plane's engine. The video is well done, but fake. As a disclaimer on the site reads: "You, the viewer of the preceeding are hereby advised that the video does not depict a real event. It is intended for the sole, limited and express purpose of entertainment and to induce you, the viewer of the video, to think critically about freedom of expression and speech and the government's responses to the same."

Even so, it is done well. I suppose yet another bored (graphic artist) employee being creative at work. :lol:

but just maybe the US Air-force is so darn embarrassed they fixed the media.
True or false seems rather subjective in relation to super powers these days.

448428 2006-04-22 21:31:00 It appears it was a spoof, read here . theage . com . au/news/technology/president-cops-a-spray/2006/04/22/1145344306679 . html" target="_blank">www . theage . com . au

My concern about the Vid was that in early shots AF1 is bathed in floodlight well away from security fences, the Vid of the tagers spraying, AF1 is located very close to a fence & containers and low level lighting than in the original shot .

This didnt add up, but its a good try . . .
