Who knows, hard to tell, that tarp diddnt look like it was moving when you see what they are pointing out.

Who knows, maybe the plane started forward momentum 2-3 seconds before the truck started moving

As for the shadows of the truck, well, all that does is prove they were out there a good part of the day, or that the truck changed angles. stupid argument.

As for the idiots posting on there about this, typical fatass cheetoe **** talking random forum monkeys with nothing better to do than sit there and bash on something to make themselves feel better.

if the plane has forward momentum in reference to the movement of air, then yeah it will take off, and all those butthurt retards who claim otherwise are just idiots

i feel the plane probably is faster then the truck...shouldnt be that drastic that it took off when the truck is only supposed to be doing 25mph
