Just came across this link, a few of these I've seen before. www.mostinterestingfacts.com/art/top-10-...os-in-the-world.html

I have to say I find #2 and #5 disturbing, I didn't know about #8, pretty cool.

Any ways I thought this was a interesting link ;)

I've seen the first photo a few times before. I didn't know the photographer who took the 5th photo killed him self?

The first photo such a amazing photo.

Great photos, my favorite of all time is number one.

Number one is remarkable, I've seen that before. So much story being told there. Makes you wonder with how popular that photo is, how much that photographer made off that?

Some great/disturbing photos.

Number 7 is the cover of a Rage Against The Machine album.

Number 5 is just messed up. After doing what he did, I can see why the photographer ended his own life. That's... messed up.

Makes you wanna go write a cheque...

I agree, but number 5 is just wrong. Number one is pretty cool.

After the picture, I would have ran up and kicked that bird.

That's sad to hear stories like that, where the photographer didn't help the poor kid, but finiancially gained from the photo. Which ultimately made him infamous and drove him to his own dealth. Ironic when you consider the message his photo was telling.

YEh. I like to think someone saved that kid though, surely the photographer wasn't the only guy there. I really hope so.

I've seen the first one before, I don't know what to say about those others. A bit on the disturbing side of things.
