He is my new hero! Some of the things he saw don't even exist anymore. He just explored and reported on what he found, drawing the things that he saw for his comic that was read by 80 million people worldwide (that is rediculous for the early 1900's!!!) His sceptics didn't believe half the things he claimed he had seen, so to prove his critics wrong he started collecting articles from all over the world, shrunken heads, video footage of African shamans covered in shells looking like monsters, bizarre two headed animals and dinosaur skeletons!<br /><br />You totally have to look into his insane life on wikipedia bro! It is awesome. I went to a Ripleys Believe it or Not here in San Francisco and it made me an instant fan :D Dude I saw that exhibit in London about a year ago :D It is fun, I love the redchalk sketches they are fantastic!
