It's a fake. As John pointed out to an earlier pass-around of this pic,
home boy would not stand there calmly if a jet was that close. Those
things are loud. And the camera surviving the collapse is pretty
unlikely.
Also there's the fact that there's no exhaust plume coming from the jet
engines, and a jet travelling at 500+ mph wouldn't appear without some
blurring at such close range unless the shutterspeed were insanely
fast---unlikely in a camera that prints the date on the image.

"sheepdog standing in the rain
bullfrog doing it again
some kind of happiness
is measured out in miles
what makes you think you're something special
when you smile
childlike no one understands
jack knife in your sweaty hands
some kind of innocence
is measured out in years
you don't know what it's like
to listen to your fears
you can talk to me
you-can-talk-to-me
you can talk to me
if you're lonely
you can talk to me"
