Don't really know where to post this, was going to post on fakeologist but having trouble logging in. Admin feel free to move or delete if inappropriate.
The below picture on the right is creating some interest over at fakeologist.

It's a ridiculous photo with 2 different looking adult arms on a kid who looks about 6. When I first saw the photo I thought the kid was famous 60s child actor Mark Lester below on the left.
Then googled Mark Lester to get a comparison photo, only to discover another rabbit hole that Mark Lester was a buddy of Michael Jackson and rumored to be the father of Paris Jackson, Michael's only daughter.

I've just come across this podcast above which apparently interviews the child (Austin) featured in the photo and, his Mother (Susan) who took the photo, and surprise surprise she works in film & television and she's mislaid the negatives. Scroll down to read the text for the interview.
The pod cast starts off with the photo's authenticity being discussed with comments such as.
Sherry: This building was put in afterwards in the back. So this was all okay. What was put in is the building. Why is the child not looking at what is happening? How can he turn around and…
Then later on they refer to my Clues Forum post.
Billy: Yeah, and I also found additional photos of him as a child, actually. Hold on. Wait, let me see if I can…
John: Oh, are we on the same forum? Is it cluesfourm.info?
Billy: Oh, no. I did find that website though and some people were saying that they thought the kid looked like… oh, they link to… who was it? It was some celebrity.
John: Mark Lester.
Billy: Yes, right. Yeah, Mark Lester who played the title role in Oliver!, the musical film that won best picture in 1968. How he got to Tribeca in the year 2001, I do not know.
So it's perfectly feasible to photoshop buildings in but not a child. Then Susan goes on to explain how she then decided to go back home when the first Tower collapsed.
Susan: We started to head back and I took another picture here. I’ve written on a Post-It, “we’ve left the river, crossing the median going home.” About two minutes later the first Tower collapsed.
(Here's the podcast without the text. Making it easier to fast forward to the later more interesting stuff)
