I came across this site quite a while ago, and just remembered its URL.
It struck me as a little odd... Check this out:

This is kinda wierd. I think this guy is a little nutty. It could be true but those photos could have been manipulated to look all distorted and such. It also seems like he took some of these ideas from the movie "The Core". Eh, i just hope if it is true that im one of the ones who gets to ride in the big boat!

The negatives looked faked to me. I believe they were heat damaged AFTER they were developed. High temperatures would irreversibly fog the entire width of the film -- yet the sprocket area of the negative is clear. Not only that, but I don't see how an explosion and fire would create circular spots of heat damage inside a sealed camera housing. (And if the explosion had hurled the camera, then there would be almost no heat damage at all).

The whole thing is probably just a well-done promo for a new spy thriller.

But then maybe somebody is paying me to debunk the thing.
