Photograph shows the remains of an 8-inch, mummified fairy found in Derbyshire.
Quoted from the site this artical originated from,
Do fairies live at the bottom of your garden?
Maybe not anymore but a recent discovery would suggest that they probably did. What appear to be the mummified remains of a fairy have been discovered in the Derbyshire countryside.
The 8 inch remains complete with wings, skin, teeth and flowing red hair have been examined by archaeologists and forensic experts who can confirm that the body is genuine. X-rays of the fairy reveal an anatomically identical skeleton to that of a child. The bones, however, are hollow like those of a bird making them particularly light. The puzzling presence of a navel even suggests that the beings reproduce the same as humans despite the absence of reproductive organs.
However...
as reported by BBCPhotographs of a mummified fairy supposedly found in Derbyshire have been revealed as an April Fool's prank. Former Derbyshire resident Dan Baines, 31, who designs illusions for magicians, made the fairy as a prank.
The site got 20,000 hits in one day from fairy believers. "Although I've said it's a hoax, people still believe that it's real," said Mr Baines.
"They believe this is just a cover-up so let the illusion continue."
He added that it had taken him four hours a day to answer all of his emails.
"I've had all sorts of comments including people who say they've seen exactly the same things and one person who told me to return the remains to the grave site as soon as possible or face the consequences," he said.
The fairy is about eight inches long with details such as a navel, ears and hair added for authenticity.
Mr Baines added that he had now become addicted to April Fool's jokes and told people to "watch this space" for future pranks.
This guy even put his fairy figure up for auction on
eBay, where it fetched a high bid of £280.00.
