Never mind, I got it:

Tourist Guy (aka tourist of death) - after September 11, a picture was prolifically passed around the interenet (an emails) of a male tourist (a Hungarian man named Péter Guzli) posing atop the World Trade Center just as one of the planes was about to hit it. The picture turned out to be a photoshopped fake. Since, the male tourist has been seen in any number of settings (he's everywhere). See also: Wikipedia - Tourist guy.
