I have a hunch that you're being a smartass but here we go anyway

The section that's disintegrating was from a video taken of a derelict 747 that they blew up as part of the TWA-800 crash investigation. The "flying" plane is a photo that can probably still be found on Airliners.net. Pretty clever edit but if you zoom in on it you can see discontinuities.

Nicely done Sherlock, I especially like the use of the word derelict.....

I'd pay good money to see a video of that happening.

I haven't looked that closely at the photo. Can you see the missle or is it on the other side?

not real.

Thanks for pointing that out. I think what got me was the fact that the outline of the top of the 747 is straight...with that much fuselage blowing out, you'd think there would be some twisting or bending in the reamaining fuselage structure.

you can also see that in the 'decompresion' section, the fuselage has the typical 'rain run' marks from sitting in the envirionment for a long time from the windows, while the forward section of the aircraft does not, a photoshop job, a good one (except for not blending out the streaks)

does any one know the why or where on the midwestern 727?

It was a prop for a movie, can't remember which one off the top of my head.
