“THE ABOVE IMAGE IS A PHOTO OF J-ROD THE INSECTOID WHO IS IN SOME KIND OF SPHERE AT AREA 51……” [source]

Not. In 2004 that photocopy (remind you of something?) circulated along with Dan Burisch’s story. In fact, most people in the field had already seen the image and knew it was a special effects prop. It was already widely circulated in the web:

The most interesting bit, however, is that this wasn’t simply a very nice prop circulated on the web. It was actually created by professionals Steve Johnson and Trey Stokes, and aired in the USA at the 20/20 TV show, ABC, April 4, 1997. It was a recreation of Santilli’s Alien Autopsy, with a lot more sophistication – this one doesn’t hide its problems behind poor film quality. It’s all there, in color.

The video of the recreation must have been seen by millions of viewers.

It didn’t stop it from circulating, just seven years later, as an alleged real alien.

A Photoshopped version of the 20/20 alien autopsy also go round the web:

 

You can see that it’s just the pasting of the alien’s face over a corpse. A real, human corpse. The original photo of the corpse has been located, but we will not post it here.
