Stock photo sites are an editor's best friend, offering HD images in oddly specific detail. Like, if you need a photo of a woman being crushed by giant cowboy boots or a kid with a mouthful of french fries holding a pistol to his head. Just imagine what the photographer was saying as he snapped those winners.
From that wealth of stock oddities, we've cherry-picked ones related to travel along with their actual captions. And just for fun, we're adding our own commentary. Here are 17 of the most absurd images about "flying."
