Pic of giant skeleton....Hoax?

i find it hard to swallow.

pic didn't work so here is the website.
urbanlegends.about.com...

Ummm, perhaps the quote from the Urban Legends website you linked might shed some light?

Answer: zilch. This is a giant hoax.

The image first surfaced as an entry in an October 2002 Photoshop contest run by Worth1000.com. It was created by manipulating an actual photo of a Cornell University excavation of a mastodon skeleton.

I have seen this posted before. Some of our Photoshop people determined it to be a fake. Do a search using 'urban legends' and 'giant skeleton' on the ATS search function. You're bound to find a few threads on it.


edit: Yow! EW beat me to it

It's not only a fake..it's a prize winning fake.

The photo was done for a photoshop contest a while ago, maybe..'02, '03, somewhere in that neighborhood.

The only reason I know is because this topic has been discussed twice in my short time here.

How did that old guy get Anna Nicols thigh bone?

Wow..I didn't just get beat to the punch..I got smacked right down to the punch...

If that makes any sense at all...

The site seems to say it's fake already. Personally I have no choice but to agree. How could you possibly explain such a thing? I am all for alternative views on everything from history to reality but this so out of the blue!
It is fun though, made me laugh! Quite imaginative and inspiring from a fictional point of view too!!

The site the link is to is also in my opinion a great site! Loads of intriguing things there! Unlike here on ATS though, you have to decide for yourself.

last time I read this photo was a hoax in some other website.

It does not mean we should rule out possiblities of giants either as the examples below explain.
