Fakebusters!
Can you see why some of the world's best monster photos are really
clever frauds and hoaxes?
List of DinosaurCam photographs
- Monster iceberg above and
below the water
A full iceberg? Not likely, but this photo swept the world in
emails and has hoodwinked millions.
- Black Forest
dinosaur
A small dinosaur in a forest clearing looked like the perfect
dinosaur shot. But we've fakebusted it!
- Plesiosaur washed up on
beach
Millions who weren't aware of the original photo were sucked in by
this bogus picture of a “plesiosaur” on a beach.
- Sahara sail
dinosaur
Hmmm. What can we say? How many were conned by this plastic
dinosaur superimposed on a genuine background?
- Archaeopteryx
Archaeopteryx is an extinct bird known only from fossils,
so if this photo was real it should have reaped millions from
science journals and newspapers instead of just doing the rounds in
emails.
- Plesiosaur (Pacific
blue)
This is a very good fabricated photo allegedly of an extinct
plesiosaur swimming behind a diver in the Pacific Ocean. But let's
fakebust it anyway.
- The John T. Scopes 1925
UFO
This photo of the central character in the famous “evolution
monkey trial” of 1925 shows a UFO in the background. We found
it on a university website and have now fakebusted it!
- Bigfoot
This famous photo of Bigfoot will continue to fool millions, even
though the creator admitted to his family before he died how he
staged the whole series of original Bigfoot photos.
- Tourist at World Trade Center
on September 11, 2001
At the exact minute Muslim terrorists flew planes into the World
Trade Center in 2001, this guy was allegedly standing on the
observation deck of the WTC in front of one of the planes, quietly
having his photo taken. Yeah, right!
- Sand sculpture of
WTC plane attack on 9/11
Many people think this photo is a fake, but it's not. It's a
genuine sand scupture of how a well-known artist imagined the
attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
- The Shroud of
Turin
Feelings run strong on whether the Shroud of Turin is genuine or
bogus. We believe there is ample evidence to conclude it is a
superbly clever fake.
- Australian UFO (and how UFO
photos have been faked)
Taken in Queensland, Australia, this article shows one of the best
UFO photos we have seen. But the photo uses trickery that wasn't
available to earlier con-artists.
- Noah's Ark
This is a genuine photo of a genuine rock formation in Turkey that
many have claimed is the remains of Noah's Ark. Let's fakebust the
object.
Important note:
Astute readers will realize that just because most of
the photos in this series are fakes, it does not mean every
sensational photo is a fraud. A picture of a living dinosaur may
still prove to be genuine. The purpose of analyzing these photos is
to show you some major areas to watch for — simply to help
you spot hoaxes.
