I think we've seen the last one before. It's usually labeled "only in America". But not quite. In Copenhagen I would often come to meet a friend in the fitness center. And I would take the stairs four flights up, I don't have the patience to wait for an elevator for that. And all the beautiful, young, fit people who were habitual customers of the centre would all take the elevator!

Aw.
thanks.
I've seen that shark picture illustrating an article about photoshopped fakes. :-/
Not to mention that nobody ever saw a shark doing a stunt like that, jumping out of the water to grab some prey completely ABOVE the surface.
Orcas, maybe. They'll nearly get stuck ashore to grab a young seal. But not sharks. Sharks can't breathe outside water, so they wouldn't take the risk.
Even a "killer whale" doing the stunt in that photo would be far-fetched. FREE MY WILLY!
Finally, a shark always turns to have its (ventrally located) mouth properly positioned for biting. In a real photo, that shark would be jumping sideways, to grab the "prey" by the middle. One thing that sharks know how to do really well, is biting.
The beach photo also seems quite suspicious. But I'll spare you the many reasons. These girls don't even seem worried at the alleged sight in front of them!!!
However, the cargo ship one (or is that an oil tanker?) is fully plausible. The perspective makes that huge storm cloud (a textbook anvil-shaped cumulo-nimbus) seen much closer than it is in reality.
"Rough weather ahead, Captain.
- Kirk to crew, brace yourselved. Full speed ahead, Bones, warp 3 at my command!"
As for the last one... "A country such as this outlandish America cannot possibly exist". ;-)
Besides, where's the mandatory ramp for access to the disabled? PHOTOSHOP! It's not a real American public building.
