Actually, I'm pretty sure the picture is real -- but fairly old.

The caption is only funny if you've never been close to a real ariliner crash. Especially when fairly large parts of the aircraft are intact like this one.

I have. There were still bodies inside. There's nothing funny about it.

In the Hawaii incident menioned above, a large portion of the roof of an Aloha Air (I think) Boeing 737 pealed off in an overwater flight and a flight attendent was lost.

A couple of days after the crash in Denver that I helped to cover for my former TV station, my entire family flew to Disney World and we took off from a parallel runway while parts the the crashed aircraft were still there on the ground.

A very strange feeling.
