Actually it looks like there is NO shadow of the prisoner. The fence shadow looks like a rectangle on the left because of the inward path of the fence and the angle of the sun casting a shadow on two or more posts (there is a samll one on the right from one post). If you look at the light hitting it's head, there should be a clear shadow above the fence line of it's head. And the stalk of grass in front of his leg looks different, more bright white than the others as if cropping the picture of the prisoner over top of the ride shot caused someone to paint the missing part of the grass back in and touch up the rest of the grass to match it. Otherwise it looks convincing.

Also, if someone planned it, went to DL to do this, and document it with pictures for the website, you'd think they would have gotten the correct name of the ride. Someone who stayed home and did it is more likely to get the name wrong IMHO.
