I found
this recently and it looked really interesting and so I thought to share. The artical says that is been around for awhile, so some of you might have seen it.
Here are the inlarged photos

The first link doesn't work, or at least not for me.
As for the pictures, it's the same things as pictures of Loch Ness in my mind. There's too many other ways to explain what we're seeing.

You misspelled "pathetic" and "collapses" *smacks you in the kneecap with 9-Iron*
Looks more like an insanely peculiar cloud-formation to me...I saw something rather like that up in the sky above my house one time...Had these two big, triangle-ish clouds to either side, and it was kinda triangular at one end...looked for all the world like the God of Osiris from YGO (aka "Slifer the Sky Dragon"), except it was just weird clouds.
I remember noticing it at the time because I'd just purchased the aforementioned card for my Deck.
As for these, well, if someone can prove conclusively, without the shadow of a doubt, that there are dragons in this pic, then fine. Until then, they're weird clouds...
K-62 - August 13, 2005 06:51 PM (GMT)
Yes, but can anyone prove that they're weird clouds?
I dont believe its just weird clouds cause theres too much detail in the what looks like scales. But on the other hand it can be like a pro doctored photo also the sheer size of it looks like its as long as the montain is high, unless its flying above the montains.
Blade Liger Mirage - August 13, 2005 10:22 PM (GMT)
Me. I'm a Dragon fanatic, and i believe in Dragons. Those pics look real and fake at the same time, since its just what looks to be the tail.
Scottfab - August 13, 2005 10:26 PM (GMT)
It looks like an airplane contrail, possible doctored a bit.

Saint Dragon no Osiris...
And even if those were clouds, they still look nothing like a part of a dragon... <_<

Dragon dont exist, so how would you know that they dont look like what isnt real? :P :P :P
Personally, I think its a snake air brushed onto the photo by a pro, but that just me. Imagine if that thing was real and it got pissed off, if it was that big it would cause major damage...scary.

The god cards aren't playable, though...says so right on 'em.
All I have god card-wise is a Japanese Ra that I bought because it was cool and shiny and I'm a sucker for dragons...

They do so exist. Komodo dragons and bearded dragons, anyone?
Fury OD - August 14, 2005 03:54 AM (GMT)
:blink: They could, but lets say they don't since I need a good night sleep without any niightmears.... <_<
ShadowDragon062 - August 14, 2005 03:56 AM (GMT)
Actually it depends on how you got them. If you got them off Toywiz.com I didn't see a "this card cannot be used in an official duel" However, I got mine from the graphic novel.. Yu-Gi-Oh the Movie Ani-Manga and it says so.
Now back to the pictures. In my opinion I would laugh if the photographer had just zoomed in at the wrong time and caught an eagle snatching a snake, and the snake's tail just so happened to be caught at that moment. Or like you guys say weird clouds. I'll believe anything because I'm gullible enough to. So if people say it's real, it's real. If people say it's just clouds it's clouds. Whatever, I find them quite interesting though.
Tilly - August 14, 2005 04:26 AM (GMT)
That's what the Japanese in the lower left says...not for use in duel blahblah.

If I some how changed the name of a dog to barking dragon it doesnt mean it gets to become a dragon its just a name. Plus I believe they have to start brething fire first too.

Who says that all dragons breathed fire, eh? Komodos were called dragons because they looked like one and are the largest of all lizards. No clue about the Bearded though.
K-62 - August 14, 2005 03:00 PM (GMT)
Like I said before, something cant look like something that doesnt exist.
Unabhängiger Wolf - August 14, 2005 04:11 PM (GMT)
People in the past never thought they didn't exist. You think komodos were discovered last year or something? >_>
Blade - August 14, 2005 05:21 PM (GMT)
Photoshop, anyone? You know how easy it is to fake something like that?
Drk-X - August 14, 2005 06:21 PM (GMT)

z0mfgz, h0lie sh14t!!!! there's a dragon in my bed!!!! =O
After all...it
looks like one!!!

Ya, I agree, but no ones has really comfirmed its a fake. So, you cant jump to conclution till someone with the skills to read photos comes by and says 'its fake'.
LOL you have the ramdomist plushy toys.
Blade Liger Mirage - August 14, 2005 07:58 PM (GMT)
Har har, I have two Dragons on my bed :P
When I really looked at the first pic, it looks like the Dragon is bigger then the Mountain, those making that one fake
Scottfab - August 15, 2005 03:06 AM (GMT)
Dont forget Water Dragons.
Komodo Dragons were not recently discovered.
K-62, you have it backwards. It's not a real dragon until its shown to be real.
K-62 - August 15, 2005 03:08 AM (GMT)
No, I ment like you cant say something looks not like something if that something does not really exist.

Whoaaa! That's a confusing post right there. :lol:
I wish I had watched that special on animal planet, I think it was AP at least, about dragons. I don't think they really exist, but it would be awesome if they did.
*side note: Looking forward for the sequel to Eragon to come out. :P *
ShadowDragon062 - August 15, 2005 05:09 PM (GMT)
I am too, I can't wait till Eldest comes out. Did anyone enjoy the book as much as I did? Oh, and who's your favorite character?
HaTcH - August 15, 2005 06:57 PM (GMT)

OMG!! Theres a Dragon on my computer!! AHHHH
As for mystical flying dragons existing back in medieval times... yeah right. They're more like just some cool things everyone admires.
Blade - August 15, 2005 09:36 PM (GMT)
Now I was just making a possible point for those pics, you know. I am not jumping to a conclusion. And, what more, I am neutral on the issue of dragons.

Is quoting a quote really necessary? Can we please just post one after another, and not do these massive tiers of quotes. Its annoying.
Blade - August 17, 2005 08:51 PM (GMT)
Ah come on, Hatch, it's necessary at times to distinguish who you are trying to respond to if there are several posts after the one you are trying to answer to.
Tilly - August 18, 2005 02:29 PM (GMT)
That's when I go
@ Bob: No, I don't want to buy a Gunbluster. I have two.
@ Fred: Nice feather boa, by the way.
and such.
JammerLea - August 18, 2005 11:02 PM (GMT)
I think Hatch is referring more to the whole mountain of quotes. I think he'd prefer you just include the last quote rather than the whole conversation. =3
ON TOPIC
I'm usually somewhat decent at figuring out photoshopped images, but those pictures just don't have enough quality one way or the other for me to tell. >_< But scaley bodies... I dunno, it needs more than that, like an actual head, or at least a leg.
Er, also if you know how to develop photos yourself, it's pretty easy to combine images just through burning and dodging and using different negatives and/or placing objects on top of the photo paper. I've done it before. X3
MrGuy - August 18, 2005 11:21 PM (GMT)

I remember seeing this somewhere else as well. I think it was proven false.
Blade - August 19, 2005 11:16 PM (GMT)
Well I am not saying that the pic was necessarily "Shopped" or anything, just saying that there is a good probability it is a hoax.
Zeke - August 20, 2005 12:01 AM (GMT)
I'd have to say a strange cloud formation. I've seen things like this by my house, one even looking like a Death Saurer. *shrugs* Strange, but I say it could be a cloud formation.
