Title: Is this even possible? A test for photoshoppers!

My guess its fake. I don't see any shadows. Heck, you need a lot of force to hold together maybe like 2000lbs of pushing force.

What do you think?

Fake without a doubt. Body builders have enough trouble doing this in a tight space where they can adopt an arched posture across the space, the guy on the right even has his feet above his center of gravity which would be around his chest so the poor guy on the left would actually be having to hold up slightly more than his own weight.

Given that this is a warehouse I suspect 2 photographs were shopped together, one with the place empty and one with these guys lying on the front of forklifts or pallets.

Or maybe just wire removal...

Wires down from the ceiling hold them steady at the waist. Shop them out later.

Still looks mad, would be madder if they didnt look like geeks rofl

If it was real (which it isnt) id imagine theyd have other people put them like that, then just take the strain.

Yeah in this situation video or it didn't happen. But if they are fags (as KM suggests via me)...please no video!.... never know what it might contain.

Fake. they probably took three photos;

Photo A: One person standing up with arms raised from the side shot
Photo B: The second person standing up with arms raised
Photo C: Both persons holding hands.
Photo D: The warehouse.

All blended together

How would they fake the angle of the guy's shirt on the left?  I think it's fake too, but I'm just curious about how they'd do that.
