lol hella funny. If you go down the street and view from different areas u can see the "battle" in progress. Its kinda odd that if you zoom out enough it suddenly gets sunny and the two guys disappear, as if that scene was on a completely differnet day then the rest of the pics. Almost looks staged?

If you go north on Federal Street just a couple of car lengths the field becomes overgrown, too. Up Charlick Way and looking back they're still there. Same as down LeDuc Way. The bicyclist going east on Sampsonia Way seems to be taking notice.

As for staged, go up Charlick Way on arrow and pan around to them. They're both looking at the camera and the bicyclist is there.

Is there someone who actually takes these pictures or are they just satellite images nobody ever knew was taken?

I don't think you can get a very good picture at ground level like that with a satelite.

You'd be surprised. They can probably read what time it is on your watch from space if they wanted to.

Talked to someone who's a bro of my father's best friend. This was a few years before 9/11 and he said they could zoom down to see what kind of drink you're drinking out of a can.
I wouldn't be suprised if they can do better than that now.

If there's clouds over the area or obstructions, no good results.

You've been reading too much Tom Clancy.

Apparently this little gem is actually set up. That entire street has a bunch of random finds like that. Pretty sweet.
