My mom believes this documentary

Lol....really?

 

[BoatAck]

Lol....really?

Apparently quite a few people believed it was real. Some people contacted The National Ocean Service demanding answers to the existence of mermaids.

That's funny. Then again look at War of the Worlds, it happens no matter what the subject matter. Did the NOS put out a statement?

We should get James Cameron on the case!

Is it wrong I think the string piece during the underwater scenes is really damn beautiful to listen to?

 

[aparisi2274]

I really hope people out there do not believe this...

 

[Christina Mackenzie]

Super hot Hook Mermaids or bust.

Why not Darryl Hannah?

 

[Cr0wn0]

My mom came over to my house after this had aired and she completely believed it. She's like they have video and body parts and Scientists!! I face palmed after about 2 minutes of watching it.

It actually much to my surprise was really enjoyable, never thought it real, but a fun bad well made fictional tale. I'd love to see the Dragon one.

It's because its a cover of a Sigur Ros song.

very beautiful.

 

[cajunator]

I'm watching it right now. My mom totally bought into it and so did my Aunt.
This is entertaining but its so bullshit. I don't know how they can get away with treating this as if it is a serious documentary.

 

[BladeoftheImmortal]

Lol....really?

Sadly, yes, but she also believes Joan of Arc had magical powers, bigfoot is real, and nessie just can't be found.

Because there is something very manish about Hannah.

 

[Randy Monk]

Reminds me of this classic Red Dwarf scene: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc20oTkd1S4

Can't agree with the Cat though...

Those are photoshopped male nipples, so it's ok.

Nothing wrong with Bigfoot.

I mean I can suspend my disbelief, but that still doesn't make me think it's real.

very beautiful.

Awesome, thank you so much. I never expected to find out the source of the music.

 

[Ponn]

Troll Hunter is my favorite documentary.

Goddamn.

Buttertorso.

 

[Dreavus]

Deep down below they find the reverse mermaid. Everybody freaks out. Some people attempt to make love with it anyway. Chaos ensues.

Depends on what you're into.

 

[Manos: The Hans of Fate]

So anyone ever see the dragon ne they did?

 

[Larson Conway]

Just watched it.

Real fascinating stuff.

It actually convinces you pretty well of the "existence."

Until you're made to doubt it with the "Big Brother" drama.

If anything, it presents a solid scenario for a possible scientific existence of the "aquatic apes."

Loved it.

Personally I think if they had just not even used the phrase Big Brother it would have been fine. I do get the feeling though that in the fictional world view they are very rare so the ability to control info and knowledge of them is not impossible, or at least to suspend disbelieve.

 

[TheJollyCorner]

There's a Perry Bible Fellowship strip for everything.

 

[Volimar]

I really liked the dragon one, mostly.

Can you rephrase this? And the Sasquatch stories are really intriguing. I've heard one theory that suggests they are difficult to find because they actually use the network of caverns in N. America - there are entrances to these caverns in regions these creatures are spotted in. The other interesting element is that they are spotted in other continents as well.

 

[Kurdel]

Well, I think this is on te same level as telling kids there is a Santa.

When they discover it isn't true, they will hopefully be more skeptical of outlandish claims in the future.

Animal planet aired a Dragon one. I have seen the Bigfoot Anicent Aliens a bunch of times and it is really silly, I love the intercontinental under good Bigfoot expressway. That said Professor Douchebag is so so annoying. I felt sad seeing Jeff Meldrum on the show, but hey if it gets him paid one not. Besides nothing he said was really silly or a joke.

I too thought the Ancient Aliens episode on this was silly, but the underground network of caverns sounds plausible. If these creatures do exist, then it would certainly explain why physical evidence of them has remained so elusive. Why do you find the cavern theory disagreeable?

Yea, I've seen the Dragon one. I posted a thread about it (with a link to the video) a while back.

Because it was already built by the Chinese Communists and destroyed by US Armed Forces decades ago.
