It’s simple, of course it was a hoax. Otherwise it would of been reported by CNN, or the BBC. Sleazy? Yep. True? Absolutely

I’ve never seen anything so fake in my life. To the people who are studying for the existence of bigfoot creatures (such as myself): PLease take the time to look at known similar animals so you know what real animals look like. That was LOL awful. Just WOW.

Wow. I’m shocked. I never saw this coming… *note the obvious sarcasm*

I think I called Mr. Chow out as a hoaxer fairly early on. Still all the drama has been somewhat interesting yet frustrating at the same time. No matter how much I knew either

A. There were no photos or

B. The photos were hoaxes,

I wanted to believe (Just like Fox Mulder).

It is indeed a sad state…

In my opinion, Vincent & Sean were not hoaxed as well, but were part of it.

Self worth and greed can make men do some pretty silly things.

Why am I not surprised?
The P/G film of “Patty” is our truest and best treasure ever.

Just a brief outline of the backstory for those that don’t understand my part in this…

Apparently a misdirected message to Loren at Cryptomundo went to our technical headquarters in California. Neither Loren nor I saw that one until it was discovered in the “editor” email box many hours later.

At 3 am my time, I was asleep. I barely had enough time to assess the situation when I got up and saw the internet chatter about the what-seemed-like an Italian discovery. I sent an email to Loren before I rushed out the door to work. I saw the comments and found the photos at approximately 6:30 am my time.

I then called Loren on the way to work, in case he had not seen my email, so he could make some comments on Cryptomundo about the hoax. Loren had not seen them yet, as his internet service was down and in the midst of being repaired.

Loren and I talked, he suggested some of what he wanted to say, but mentioned he would write the blog more in-depth when the internet problem was fxed. I typed and partially composed a post for Loren and added the photos as soon as I could upon arriving at my job. Loren soon got back online, and modified the post with his commentary.

Soon, the other photos came in, were found, and were posted quickly.

Now, I am just arriving home, nearly 14 hours later.

It has been quite a day for all of us at Cryptomundo.

Wow! The denizens of The Planet of the Apes have crash landed in Johor! And someone took photos! This stinks. I’ve been waiting since the beginning for the photos to be released and they give me special effects? The top photo looked like something from a cheesy werewolf movie and the bottom just looked like a dirty neanderthal rendering. They should be censured by the scientific community. This is unforgivable in my opinion. It’s one thing for some doofus to pull a hoax, but someone with a genuine scientific background? It would be the wise thing to do to just ignore any further “news” about the subject from these people. Their shameless trickery completely negates ANY credibility they might have once had.

crypto_randz, have you read all of the posts today regarding these photos? Loren posted the information regarding the book that these photos came from. The book was a companion to the DVD of the French documentary that these hominids were created for.

There is no doubt as to the source of the photos.
