In regards to the Mothman's name. It was inspired by the popular tv show Batman that started airing in the 60s. The creature doesn't fly around saying, "I'm dey Mothman froggers! Looking for a big lightbulb to bump into!!" Think the press coined the phrase.

Either pretty good photoshop or genuine photo

P.S. Anybody know when these were taken im curious

Huh.. I don't think the photos real. Or if they are of something abnormal I doubt it would be the Mothman, as I am kinda of the opinion that the Mothman is like The Jersey Devil, that there is only one. Actually I think those two are amazingly similar... Both had a huge burst of incredibly legitimate sightings, and a large amount of more spread out sightings by reputable people.
Oh, and to answer the question about mothman being physical or spiritual.. its umm.. not really known, but if that guys dog was torn apart by Mothman and not something else, I'd venture to guess its physical.
Also, where is this whole thing about beaks? According to all of the Point Pleasant sightings I read they all spoke about a dark figure like a man with wings wrapped around his body, without a head, and with big glowly eyes where his chest would be. Are people confusing the Owlman who... only appeared to young girls with the Mothman who flew around near an old TNT plant?

Meep! And on top of that, don't any of you diss old camera's! A Cannon F-1 will take pictures better than your eyes can see! Its just that most people are either purposefully taking their pictures badly to cover up obvious fraud, or they don't know how to focus a camera.. or more likely... 99% of the photographic evidence is false for any case, anyone wonder why a random snapshot of a wolf... while driving down a road through the glass of a window with a disposable camera tends to look better than 90% of the supposed photographic evidence of something? *strangely, is not a skeptic*

It's about time there was a picture of Mothman around here. But, it looks like a guy in a dark rope. But still, its better than nothing.

i liked it,it scared the hell out of me for some strange reason

The pictures are too sucky to tell if it is real or not. They say a normal human couldn't jump that far, but I think it is just the angle from where the dude is sitting or something.

Looks like a dude to me, i would like to believe but without a clearer picture i remain sceptical.

Then it also shows the guy jumping off the bridge who would jump off tha bridge?

Could be

1. parallax error
2. photoshop
3. suicide jumper

Unclear, but so is every cryptid isn't it Blobsquatch is back yeah yeah yeah................


Hey Glacies - hey nah, hay nah my blobsquatch's back!

You loved the bat theme so much...............

its a base jumper with a black wind suit on.get it together......the wind suit is the reason he was probably able to jump so far out

So could Batboy be Mothmans sidekick? Hmmm that would be interesting!

If you look at the first part of the bridge, on the top, there is something that looks exactly like the part that is thought to be "mothman".


I think it might just be a casing off the top of the bridge falling off.

a guy posted a thread quite recently here, saying he was working as a radio dj and made up the mothman asa joke and it just got outta hand, think he posted it in the conspircies section if you wanna search.

Might have been a suicide jumper.....the picture is too out of focus to tell.

Give me a few days, i'll photoshop some better Mothman pictures then those. THE MOTHMAN DOES NOT EXIST! GET A LIFE!

Hopefully those same photoshopped pics will show you purchasing some manners.....



Fair enough, I happen to feel the same way..



Unnecessary, have some respect for your fellow poster.

Is this the whole point of you being here?


To insult people and try and start a flame war. I think you should take your own advice.

i agree...rude much?

the link didnt work for me...

No, you aren't the only person. The film was excellent. I think you may need a higher intellect to appreciate it or to "get it".
That link in the first post doesn't work, where can I view the photos?

Surely you guys are not talking about this? http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/galle...mb_mothman1.jpg
(original link dosen't work for me.)

ha ha I think that is a deliberate spoof. No there are 2 pictures of a supposed Mothman perched on a bridge, then jumping off.

No, I'm not sure ANYONE is buying that at all......with all of this hoaxing and deliberate misinformation, how could ANYONE be expected to buy-into Mothman....difficult, to say the least.

I found this link, if these are the same photo, they are not very convincing.

Yeah...seen this pic. Fake they say. Yes, fake I say....bzzzzzzzzzzz

Diddn't need Chief Inspector Clouseau to solve THAT mystery

Ah! Oui mon ami! Ze piktuur is so cleer zat we won't need zem to be doubted. Photoshop...oui oui!

LOL, I know. It was a costume made by a member.
I know the pictures you were talking about... I put that in as more of a joke.



Dear god... CONDORMAN!

Would be nice to know what was so large that did jump off the bridge.

I'm thinking of the tourist economy in Point Pleasant West Virginia and wonder how it was affected since the sighting in 2002, if not mistaken?! Especially since the town decided to erect a stainless steel statue to honor Mothman's visitation.

Mothman link

Think of how many people see that Richard Gere movie, then Yahoo search "Mothman" and then see that statue and think it must be a true story. I bet it's a tourist spot just like Roswell is to this day. Everyone that goes expects they just might get lucky and see something of the legend.

i beleive this is one of the photos that is in the original link,the original link won't load up,this pic was taken in greenup ky,not in point pleasant wv,if you look at the supposed "mothman".you will see a neck and head,in the original descption of the mothman,the head and body were one and the same.


my take on the movie,they ruined it when they used present day and not 1966 when he first sighting happened

the link no-longer works for me :-(
