Alien In Qatar Update

May 27th, 2009 by RK | leave a comment

At the end of April, we posted a story of a small weird alien like creature that was spotted and photographed in the parking lot of Qatar’s Doha Corniche. The report was that it was seen by multiple witnesses and the story and photo were published in the Gulf Times.

Many theories tried to explain the sighting and odd photo, including that it was an alien, Djin, some sort of misshaped monkey and many more.

The strange story is currently be explained away as a hoax or prank. The now famous photo of the creature against the rock is said to be only a ‘Stretchy Horror Monster‘ that was digitally modified a touch.

Presuming this is a hoax and that photograph is of a ‘Stretchy Horror Monster’, I still find it odd that this story grabbed everyone’s attention they way it did. Adding into the story that it was seen by multiple witnesses in such a well known populated place seemed to strengthen the story and what ever work went into the photograph was worth the effort in creating the hoax.

Ledger Live with Brian Donohue gets a video interview with the Morris County UFO Hoaxsters.

Chris Russo and Joe Rudy, who in January and early February claim to have released helium balloons with traffic flares tied to them from a field in Hanover Township on five separate occasions in what they called a “social experiment” to debunk the pseudoscience of UFOs.

Brian Donohue stands in a trash covered New Jersey field with the two and discusses the recent court case and the motives behind the so-called hoax.
