If it were real, the pads would be grated off in a couple off brake applications if the pistons didn't pop out of the calipers first. There would be pad material everywhere. Someone with a brake lathe is having a good time posting this for a laugh.
I agree - fake. Why would the rotor be worn between the pad and the hub? The pad doesn't make contact there.

Humorous nonetheless.
