Starting A Meme, the McCutchen Edition

OK, so this has been done before, specifically over at Lookout Landing with a current Milwaukee Brewer. But, let's try it for ourselves with Pirates' center fielder, Andrew McCutchen...
The rules are simple.. Take the picture above, edit it to your liking, and post the final product in the comments below. If you're curious about where this picture came from, here you go: On Sunday afternoon, McGehee hit a home run to center field, and McCutchen scaled the wall, trying to catch it. He ended up dropping his glove behind the wall, and this is how he landed.
I'm not a photoshopper, so I won't attempt to start off the fun, but I know we have several active users here who can shop the crap out of this picture. Enjoy!

This was just a thinly veiled attempt to get more nullacct photoshops, wasn't it? :-P

haha, no
We’ve got a number of photoshoppists on this blog, and I know there is an abundance of creativity. The goal is to generate a bunch of pictures. That being said, if it winds up being 10 pictures by null, I’d be alright with that, too.

A request
As my Photoshop skills are seriously lacking, can someone replace McCutchen with a police outline?
Where are the trolls when you actually want them?
Oh and for people who want in on this who don't own photoshop
GIMP is an excellent (and free!) image manipulation tool very similar to photoshop. There are tons of youtube tutorials to help you learn how to use it effectively too. (I’m not associated with GIMP in any way, besides being a user. I just wanted to pass along some excellent free software to those who might be feeling left out)
that's what I used for the above
that’s what I have on my laptop. on my desktop I have PS.
not that that’s exactly an endorsement

note
“not that that’s exactly an endorsement” is not to be construed as an anti-GIMP or anti-photoshop statement, but rather a self-indictment of my own abilities with the aforementioned.

I hope McCutchen doesn't look up.

I slowed the video down, and this is why McCutchen couldn't catch the ball:
