That is alot of pork man! Can you imagin the damage that thing could do to ya if it turned and charged you. Scary.

hmmm....how close is the camera to the pig and how far back do you think the kid is sitting? oke:

 

[DawgBone]

Whoa - If this is real then it's absolutely amazing!

 

[Papa_D]

I want to ride it. :bouncy:

 

[m1aman]

what a load this photo is. the kid looks to be about 5 yards behind the hog. i hope someone with photography experience can explain how this is done. i know there is a away to do it, i just can't explain it right.

i say bs all the way.

there is another pic in this thread..

It sure looks as if they are trying to make the hog look huge on the second pic where everyone stands behind, but it looks badly done..

 

[TitanicDJ]

yup...thats what I said the first time...just compare the kid in the 2 shots, boy he grew :bangit:

Even the first hogzilla wasn't as big as it was first reported...big hog just not hogzilla.

dang! Somebody bake some biscuits!!!:lick:

A wide angle lens will make the foreground look bigger. A 1050-1060 lb. hog is big, but that thing looks bigger than a 2500 lb. Angus bull, so yeah, a little photo trickery might be involved.

Would you let your 11 year old go around shooting a 50 cal. I did see a show on Hogzilla where they dug him up and he wasn't as big as was claimed but he was huge. It probably is possible. Not sure I believe this one though.

 

[m1aman]

16 shots? didn't know he was wearing body armor :jester:

It's called frame of reference, or trompe d'oeil. Put the kid 10 yards behind the animal and shoot the picture, makes the pig look 3 X as big.

It's still huge, just not as big as the photo would lead one to believe.

well dam it... i saw the pic thot it was real and wanted to go kill a pig and now every one says its fake... no hogzilla the third for me... and the kid looks like hes got a paintball gun lol

 

[royr]

Is that really a big really ugly hog - or is that Rosie's sister? I see a family resemblance! LOL:jester:

 

[killcatzforfun]

we have lots of 300-400 pounders here in mississippi. come on up and kill several dozen. they are a huge nuisance!:gunz:

 

[phoenix titan]

WOW! das a big B!TCH!!

 

[dksfowler]

hey m1amam is that invite i do guided hog hunts in southern ohio hunting preserve. but would love to go somewhere like that and chase them too.

I think it's BS. Pictures, shmictures. In this day of PS, you're going to have to have something else to substantiate a claim if you want me to believe it. I mean, how hard is it to verify something of this sort? I say it's BS.

I found some other pics HERE

There isn't any consistency in it's apparent size in these pics.
