You claim extraordinary insight into the identification of online photos, but your recent spectacular misidentifications undercut that claim.
A previous comment along the lines that I had TWICE IDENTIFIED A LIVE MAN AS A DEAD WOMAN lies behind it. Allow me to set the record straight:
Freepers were asked the question 'What Do You see?' and after many attempts, as the images posted were without captions and without identification, and after writing maybe that image is of Fuddy herself, I finally reached the conclusion that this above underwater image showed Fuddy's assistant Yamamoto supporting Fuddy, whose sleeve is showing in the image.
I reached the conclusion it was Fuddy's clothing that was showing by making a comparison of the sleeve of her jacket. One image from a photograph taken on the island before the event, one image taken from the aircraft interior which showed Fuddy seated, and then the final image, distorted and faint, of the sleeve I perceived in the water, which showed some of the same pattern.
I based this conclusion also on the above-the-water image, which shows, as Yamamoto described, him holding onto Fuddy, while her knees and one shoe are visible on the surface. Therefor, all that is visble of Fuddy in the underwater image is one arm clothed in the patterned sleeve.
And that was my limited, final contribution to the identification of the series of images which were posted to that thread.
I hope that settles any idea that I can't tell a live man from a dead woman. Twice. Wet or dry. Thank you.
Interesting post, Fred. Here’s a question for you. From the time you first identified the body of a trim, live male as that of an obese, dead female, how many days was it before you capitulated? Iirc, it was at least two or more. I could look it up, but I thought perhaps you might know offhand. Thank you in advance.
