An 11-year-old Alabama boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. Think hams as big as car tires.What in heaven’s name is in the water down there that these hogs are drinking?
[Jamison Stone's] said he shot the huge animal eight times with a .50- caliber revolver and chased it for three hours through hilly woods before finishing it off with a point-blank shot.I wonder if that’s the same .50 caliber ammunition the anti-gun crowd claims can take down a 747 and pierce armor on tanks? Nah, this was a hand bazooka!
Jamison is enjoying the newfound celebrity generated by the hog hunt, but he said he prefers hunting pheasants to monster pigs.
"They are a little less dangerous."
Well, I should think so!
(Nice photo angle by the way. Makes the damn hog look even bigger!)

It's fake, just like the hogzilla photos. Take a look at the fake on the left (the one that’s being published) and the real one on the right. The size of the boy’s head in comparision to the tree behind him is proof the one on the left is a fake.

You can't say "Well, it's a different angle". Obviously no one moved the supposedly 1050 lb dead pig farther from the tree. It's the same distance from the tree in photo #1 as it is in photo #2 - but my dosn't Mr. Big Game Hunter a lot smaller in the photoshopped version? Makes the pig look huge doesn't it?
Once again someone takes advantage of the media's willingness to make up lies so they can earn more ad revenue. No reputible news organization would air such deceitful drivel and no honest person would be a part of it. What do they take us for? We didn't just fall off the tater truck, you know.
Sorry, the photo is not "fake" any more than the pictures in fishing magazines are "fake". It is the camera angle and the position of the kid. Fishermen hold their catch out in front of them. Bear hunters get behind the bear so the head looks huge. Here the kid is behind the boar in the photo on the left and right up against it onthe photo on the right. Pig hasn't moved. Boy and cameraman did.
And 1050 lb is still freaking HUGE!
