The “tourist guy” stepped forward to reveal his identity. The mythic meme of the “tourist guy” started a couple of weeks after the WTC/Pentagon (yeah, remember the Pentagon?) disasters. Since the sighting, he has shown up in at the scene of the sinking of the Titanic, the shooting of Kennedy, and many other places. Spread via e-mail… the dude has become quite popular. When asked how the picture began to spread he replied, “I believe that some friends planted my face in that body,” Penteado wrote in an e-mail (which was translated from Portuguese).”
