Bizarre 60ft long dragon skeleton discovered China
17 October 2017
A dead 'dragon' has been discovered by residents of a Chinese village who claim that the bizarre skeleton is proof that the mythical creature actually exists. The peculiarly long skeleton measures at least 60ft.
It was found laid out in a field in Zhangjiakou City, in China's northern Hebei Province.
Unlike dragons depicted in Western mythology, traditional Chinese dragons have no wings and fly by 'swimming' through the air much like how snakes slither along the ground. The anatomy of the strange skeleton thereby convinced some locals that the remains could indeed be a dragon.
The 'dragon' head looks remarkably like a cow skull and some people have claimed online that the many bones that make up its body look like cow and sheep bones. Netizens on Chinese social media said the ribby skeleton appeared to have been placed there intentionally, perhaps as a prop for a movie, but so far no one has come forwards to confirm these claims.
This picture (left) emerged on Chinese media which shows locals 'riding' the skeleton. It was suggested that the locals really knew that the skeleton was just a prank because if they really did think it was a dragon they would have showed more respect for it.
The video has been viewed more than 10 million times already so it is proving a popular hoax.
