    These aren't the kinds of photos you can plan. You simply have to be in the right place at the right time. The result is pure gold, and also getting to be a part of internet infamy. 

    This is a collection of some of the most perfectly timed photos on the Internet. 

    We spent all that money to put men on the moon and then this guy comes along.

#44 Not exactly. This can happen at speeds below the sound barrier and it is not a physical representation of the sound barrier itself or a sonic boom. What you are seeing is a Vapor Cone, also known as a shock collar or shock egg, which is a visible cloud of condensation which can sometimes form around an aircraft. The vapor cone is thought to be created by what is called a Prandtl-Glauert Singularity. The phenomenon is frequently encountered at high-subsonic Mach numbers (Mach 0.85 to Mach 1), but can also occur in lower-speed conditions, such as high-g maneuvers by fighter aircraft. The cloud is caused by extremely low pressure in an "expansion region" of the airflow around the aircraft, usually in relatively humid atmospheric conditions. In addition to this, scientists have a theory that vapor cones form whenever a layer of water droplets gets trapped between two high-pressure surfaces of air. In humid conditions, condensation can gather in the trough between two crests of the sound waves produced by the jet. This effect does not necessarily coincide with the breaking of the sound barrier, although it can. - Borrowed some of this from Wikipedia.

Instead of slugging that 3rd baseman (presumably from the visiting team) reaching into stands to catch the foul ball, why didn't that fan just do a Steve Bartman, reach up and knock the ball out of the infielder's grasp?
