Hoax Photo Tests

[El Dingo]

WTF?

I'm really good at these, look them up on Snopes all the time. So either snopes.com is full of crap or the makers of this quiz are:

1. Real: Hunter shoots giant bear

Here is my score:

Hoax Photo Test:
Level One
You Scored 2 out of 10
Question 1 - Incorrect (I said Hoax, Snopes says Real)
Question 2 - Incorrect (I said Hoax, Snopes says Hoax)
Question 3 - Incorrect (I said Hoax, Snopes says Real)
Question 4 - Incorrect (I said Hoax, Snopes says Hoax)
Question 5 - Incorrect (I said Hoax, Snopes says Real)
Question 6 - Unknown - I said Hoax because I couldn't believe a photographer could be flying at the right speed to get that shot.
Question 7 - Incorrect (I said Hoax, Snopes says Hoax)
Question 8 - Correct (I said Hoax, Snopes says Hoax)
Question 9 - Incorrect (I said Hoax, Snopes says Hoax)
Question 10 - Correct (I said Hoax, Snopes says Hoax)

So, according to Snopes I got at least 6 correct (Jet picture unknown).

The other two tests seem similarly misinformed.

I believe Snopes.com over these Bozos.

As we say over in somethingawful.com "The internet makes you stupid"
