First, the Land Cruiser doing the stunt is way to sharp. Way to sharp. In a realistic photograph of such nature, the rear section of the Land Cruiser would be slightly blurred (out of focus) in comparison to the rest of the car. The tires also appear to have been "cut out" from the original image (and again, their sharpness is to unreal). There is no sense of motion in the photo.
Second, the man standing on the Land Cruiser appears to be superimposed in the photo. There are pixel abrasions around his body, particular near his arms which clearly hint at some form of digital pixel manipulation. These can also be seen around the Land Cruiser, the antennas etc. If he were in motion the wind would also cause certain regions of his attire to flutter rearward. It looks like in the original photo, he was standing in a windless area.
Third, the light on the person on the roof doesn't match the light shining unto the stunt Land Cruiser. It appears as if the person was photographed somewhere where it was quite shady. The light source in the photo of the two Land Cruisers seems to come from their right (our left) due to the shadows they cast. The original photo of superimposed stunt Land Cruiser has the light coming in from its left side (our right) as can be seen by the softly illuminated left mirror (our right) - whereas the mirror on its right side (our left) is darker. The right side of the SUV (our left) is also darker. If it were a real photo, the light coming in from their right side (our left) would also bounce off the road and illuminate the Land Cruisers right side (our left). The shadow the stunt Land Cruiser casts is also unrealistically small.
Fourth, there is no reflection of the person on the roof anywhere on the SUV.
Nice job, though. I don't mean to criticize your work.

There are a number of clues that gave it away as a digitally altered image.

Yeah, it does go this sharp, how? I really don't know.
It is windless because the car is being driven slowly.
I think there is one way that explains this. The man is really doing this stunt, what I believe is they taken this stunt picture, and added it on this 2 normal landcruisers picture (which is now the background).

Auditions to be an acrobat in the Qatari national circus are a life-or-death experience. If you fall during the "Landcruiser dance with death" routine, the trailing Landcruisers will run you over to put an end to your shame.
