Title: What's on Pumaman's avatar?
Post by: Crimson Wizard on Wed 20/06/2012 15:57:25
Now, that is silly! but... I want to know this for 4 years now (so long as I am on forums).
What is depicted on Pumaman's avatar?

Seriously....
Earlier I was struggling between two options: some superman-like guy flying, or scuba diver in the water.
Now I got a thought it could be a drawing of a man standing with his hands up but rotated by 90 degrees.

So, can someone enlighten me?

Let's make it a quiz ~ until someone knows it for sure  :wink:

I guess it's from a painting and there is someone falling (like in those nightmares, where you are falling and falling and ... )  :shocked:

.. but I'd like to know, what it really is, too   :grin:

Now I'll have the MST3K tune in my head for the rest of the day...  8-0 8-0

Hahaha :D
I had to watch fast forward about 30 minutes of some dumb movie, but finally saw the same picture!

I'm halfway through that MST video on YouTube. It's a terrible movie. And I remember MST being much funnier when I was younger.
I doubt I'll be able to look at Pumaman's avatar now without being reminded of that terrible movie.

I'd always assumed CJ was a skydiving enthusiast and this was one of his freefall photos or something. :-\
