Definitely photoshop… as mentioned above, the foot is casting a shadow on the window, physically impossible. Also that shadow is partially transparent… a remnant of erasing the background of the original picture of the kid.
Also dad’s arm and thumb are also transparent, again, as a result of the feathered eraser. Both people were added to the pic of the living room.
And finally, proof that AT LEAST one or the other was added to the pic …different shadows.
The dads picture was taken landscape style, hence the shadow over his shoulders. The kids picture was taken portrait style, hence the shadow to the side, not the top.
Jeez – put a lot of thought into this one….The picture IS NOT photoshopped. I had a crappy 3.2 mp camera – hence the blurs. I do admit it turned out kind of creepy with his hand, but I think it was because he was moving.
Is it me or are the “photo-shopped” comments from people that actually believe every picture is really photo-shopped or they’re just too lame to have a clever comment
I am busting out laughing at work. The look on the poor kid’s face is priceless. This is how Stewie Griffin got his football-shaped head. Heads and ceilings don’t mix.
Almost looks like the kid’s sitting on the top of the window ledge. (Keyword: almost.) But it’s funny if you look at it that way because you can find toddlers in the strangest scenarios. Good action shot, too – a lot of cameras would have just captured a blurry, fuzzy mess.
I know cheerleading has become very competitive, but don’t you think we are starting this little one a tad early? At least wait til she’s not using a sippy cup.
that little girl has the same expression of so many people who ride roller-coasters and other fair rides – a combination of terror and excitement. I’d love to see a study of adults who love rides and see if they were tossed (like this girl) as children, and perhaps that helps them develop a love for the scary rides?
Manuel was so surprised by the pinata his parents had hung up for his birthday that he fell down.
For a split second, he kind of thought that it was a REAL child up there.
I agree; it definately looks photoshopped. The shadow on the right foot gives it away, though the fact that the shadow lines up where the ceiling meets the wall is also a pretty obvious clue.
I completely agree. Notice the shadow on the glass door near the girls foot and dad’s right arm? Also look at dad’s right arm … the sleeve was erased with a feathered eraser and now his shirt is transparent.
Not photoshopped. Sorry guys. That’s my hubby on his knees (11 foot ceilings) and he used to do this with her all the time. She would beg. It scared the crap out of me….but he never let her fall.
This is the reason my many women wore”big hair” in the 80′s. They had to disguise the flt spot of the top of their head with loads of teasing and Aquanet.
Ditto – I’ve seen a few happy daddies knock a kid senseless while carrying them through the concourse at a ballgame or tossing them up in a room with an 8-foot ceiling. Remember, dads – these are the kids that will someday choose your nursing home care!
Judging by the demonic look in her eye, and that evil smile, I think that the dad didn’t toss her, he was holding her, and she just flew right up and is poised to attack…

How many times does she have to say IT ISNT PHOTOSHOPPED before the photoshop police go home?
Is it me or are the “photo-shopped” comments from people that actually believe every picture is really photo-shopped or they’re just too lame to have a clever comment
a little of both…
I am more intrigued by the detail that some people put into their photoshop analysis. I mean, get a life.
AGREE! If they think everything is photoshopped why dont they just stop looking?
So she dropped him?
He must have been heavy, even for a levitating baby.
As Frank Barone would say: “Holy crap!”
It’s David Blaine’s baby. She can levitate!!!
The dad could be on his knees, that would answer why he seems so short.
Honestly, it looks like a bad photoshop job.
Can you say, “Pinata?”
PHOTOSHOPPED!!
Wow, they’re making those helium birthday balloons look really realistic these days!
I am busting out laughing at work. The look on the poor kid’s face is priceless. This is how Stewie Griffin got his football-shaped head. Heads and ceilings don’t mix.
Stewie OMG!!!!! I love that
don’t get why its awkward. the kid looks a little wigged, but its not that weird

Kids today are so stuck up.

Cool! I believe this is one of Linda Blair’s baby pictures!

I used to love getting tossed up when I was a baby, but I never ended up that high! And is that a smile on the kids face or a look of pure terror?
It’s a thin line! That’s part of the fun!

“WEEEEEE” “Again, again!”

Win!
AGREED!
I assume Dad knew a good contracter to repair what would inevitably be a nice hole in the ceiling from the kid’s head….
You don’t think she’s just pinned to the ceiling and he’s trying to get her down.
LOL
I’m certain that this was photo-shopped.
;p
Rob
but whether it is or not, you have to admit that it’s pretty funny

Cheese dog!
Could this be the beginning of the Rapture? The way the guy is holding his arms out, I wonder. Bummer, he’s a Left Behind-er. HAHA!!
Or she’s descending….He has the look of a supplicant with his arms raised like that.
Ha! Love it
Static electricity will cause balloons and small children to stick to the ceiling.
True, but epoxy lasts longer.
industrial strength strips of velcro work too..and when you peel them down, it makes that lovely ssssshrrrrrrrppppp sound!

flat spot lol
“SHEILA! MELANIE’S BEEN SUCKING ON THE HELIUM TANK AGAIN!!”
I think the Mom must be Samantha from “Bewitched”. Either that or Dad just filled that kid up with a lot of Helium!
Not only that, but she could have hit her head on the ceiling, obviously!
Ditto – I’ve seen a few happy daddies knock a kid senseless while carrying them through the concourse at a ballgame or tossing them up in a room with an 8-foot ceiling. Remember, dads – these are the kids that will someday choose your nursing home care!
You’ve seen a few? Really? I have never, ever seen a father knock a child senseless in this way. Where the hell do you live?!
Detroit is a tough town.
Best caption EVER!
Burp, Charlie, burp! It’s the only way! Oh, we never should have stole the Fizzy Lifting Drinks!
One to many fizzy lifting drinks, start burping kid and you’ll come down.
Watch out for ceiling fans.
Parents, don’t try this at home!
Is Dad really really short or is that gate really really tall? Oh! I just noticed. There is a flying baby in the picture ~ peculiar.
“I do believe I forgot my fudge…”
People who do that with kids, are friggin’ idjits. As if this guy never dropped a football that he “knew” he could catch.
Yeah, but kids BOUNCE, not a big deal …..
And even if you do catch the baby, won’t the the spike afterward cause some sort of permanent damage?
As long as he’s not penalised for excessive celebration.
I think the kid will turn out just fine.
Judging by the demonic look in her eye, and that evil smile, I think that the dad didn’t toss her, he was holding her, and she just flew right up and is poised to attack…
That child looks slightly concerned.
All I can imagine is a stream of urine hitting him…
….or worse.
haha that’s just what I was thinking!
I hate when kids just go flying randomly round the room for no good reason and refuse to come down.
Time to call an exorcist when your child is levitating!
Wow…I think my son and that dad have met b4…..hes absolutely terrified of getting tossed up in the air. I couldnt figure out why…now I know!
This makes me think of the Mary Poppins scene where they have tea on the ceiling.
