Hoax – 'Giant Skeleton Discovered In Bulgaria' – Hoax-Slayer

This story was first published on March 30, 2015

Outline

Circulating ‘news’ report claims that archaeologists have unearthed a giant human skeleton in Bulgaria. The report features a picture depicting the skeleton with the archaeologists.  




Brief Analysis

The claims in the report are nonsense. No such giant skeleton has been found. The image is fake and was created by combining a photograph of archaeologists excavating the remains of a dinosaur with a photograph depicting a very old, but normal sized human skeleton. This is just one among a number of similar ‘giant skeleton’ hoaxes that have circulated for many years.
