I am sorry to say this, but I am having an extremely hard time believing this. The pics dont do anything for me either. Now, I am definately NOT against hunting, my whole family and I hunt.

The second pic in the middle, looks photo shopped to me.

Almost 1100 pounds? Seriously, I dont think so.

I have horses that weigh 1500lbs, and that hog makes even them look small. I dont care if the hog has short stumpy legs that make him look like that.

I just cant make myself believe it.

Yeah, I'm with you. Looking at the photos, I am not sure if they are photoshopped, but it is evident that the guys in the pics are well behind the pig. They are not standing beside it. They are using the ole fishermans fish pic trick. Hold it out way in front so it looks bigger. Also, look at the photo where they are picking it up with a tractor, and compare it to the others. In the other photos, that pig is as big as a small rhino. The scale of the pig to the tractor and the scale of the pig in the other photos do not match. One other thought, if I bagged one that big, it would be getting stuffed. When I see the mounted trophy, I will believe it.

Do your horses have draft in the their blood, if not I find it hard to believe they weigh 1500#'s. Got a horse at the house that is 16.2 hands, very stout and at his heaviset ever, 1275# to 1300#.

You may not believe the website but it was in the paper as well. It does seem crazy big but there are freaks like that out there. I can't imagine eating a pig of that size. Heard it was 600#'s of sausage!

This has been on the news and where this hog was killed, it's known for huge trophy's. So for you non-believer's. Get over it, and besides it was an eleven year old kid. I am quite sure he couldn't make such a story up. Just my .02.

What's more believable...the hog or the fact that an 11 yr old boy can hold down a .50 cal revolver slinging 350 grain lead?

Complete BS to me....

Hogzilla was reported to be eating protein pellets from a near by catfish farm, how could a pig get that huge eating roots and berrys? Must have been eating from some other source allowing supplements.

It is hard to believe, but who am I too say it's fake. I just don't see how an 11 year old could fabricate this story, or even go along with it??
