Definitely fake, not even photoshopped either they just had the kid stand several feet or yard's behind the hog and in front of another large object i.e. the tree and position the camera and voila, monster hog ;)

Damn ,
This story gettin around qiuck ,got 4 emails on it.
I've big wild hogs but in the wild the usually dont have the means to puttin on that kind of weight.
I suspect this may have been a wild hog thats been penn raised for many years.
Reminds me of the trophy hogs raised for the county fair.

Either way, happy for the kid it was an event he wont forget.

I think they're doing the optical illusion thing. The fishermen on here know what I am talking about. They have a website and they are doing it in everyone except the last with the backhoe holding it. The pig looks smaller in that one.

here are a few comments this kid has received on his web site:


 I am writing to voice my concern over the killing of this unusual animal. I am most concerned that an 11 year old believes that killing something so unique is "an accomplishment".  I wonder what sort of people raise their children to be proud of killing defenceless animals. Regardless of it's size, animals are no competition for a human using gun and shooting from a safe distance away.  This behaviour is cowardly- like hitting someone from behind.  Instead of feeling proud, this boy should feel ashamed for putting an animal through three hours of suffering for no reason at all.  I expect parents to teach children about compassion and appreciation for life. If he had been encouraged to shoot with a camera instead of a gun, people around the world could have benefited from this encounter.
 
Please post my email in your negative response section. I see that you are strategically posting only the most radical and offensive emails, no doubt to try and demonstrate that anyone against this killing is an extremist.
 
hurry up enlist in the Army, I want to see you chased and shot at. And maybe beheaded on video for us to see....I will laugh while eating my veggie burger
 
Just my opinion but  Personally, I'm really sad you shot that pig. How nice it would have been for it to either live free or be used as a source of scientific  discovery. But hey, I'm from California where we tend to think that way.  My son is 10 and became a vegetarian on his own at age 5 (his father and I are carnivores). Our son still takes the time to remove even ants from our house so no one will squish them. Interesting how different two American boys can be!
Good job being on the honor roll. Best of luck in the future.
 
 
I have to congratulate you because I didn't think it was possible for an 11 yr old as large as yourself to chase a pig for three hours in hilly terrain. Well done, fat boy! For real though. Killing an animal about half your size does not make you a hero, or a model American, or anything else anybody might say you are. It certainly does not make you worthy of being in a movie.
You are a worthless piece of crap and i hope one day another noble American hunter such as yourself mistakes you for a large hog and shoots you about 12 times before your fat ass drops dead. They'll definitely need another backhoe in the woods to pick your body up with. I hope you're enjoying your fame. Satan is going to have fun with you when you rot in hell.
God Bless.
 
Congratulations on killing a rare animal. Hope you're really proud of yourself. If you ate that pig, I hope it was carrying some kind of disease. The world would be better off without people like you.
 
I would like to order one of these terrorist pigs for my kids to kill so they can be good Americans. How much are they and how do we get into the movies business by killing them? Could we shoot with canon or grenade for to make different than Jamison's? How can we buy pig that is guaranteed homosexual to make killing more good? Thank you and god bless you good American boy.
 
what the hell, you fat ***, innocent animal killing, red neck hillbilly you must think your so cool for killing a defenseless pig, then you make it a trophy!? that's disgusting. i don't know which  is worse the fact that you shot the innocent creature for three hours strait or that you where smirking in that picture. I wish i could beat that smirk right of your face you thingy head. i cant understand why anybody would kill a poor animal. You people disgust me, I hope you rot in hell.
 
Its really not your fault, I am thinking as I read all those negative emails coming in. Yes while it is true that you definitely committed an act of terrorism, much
like our president does each day upon arising, Its not you. Its your father and your fathers father and soon. They were probably slave owners way back when and
even earlier on performed acts of terror on the original land owners of America, The Native Americans, who would kill only what they needed to survive. Its a sad,sad thing that has been taught to innocent children like yourself. And to further straighten this atrocity, I will bet your misguided, mentally ill father cheered you on, and you only wanted to make him
proud, like most children. It makes me think of something I read in the big book of Alcoholics Anonymous about the warped lives of blameless children. I will try to start a prayer circle for you to help repair your damaged soul.  P.S. There are all sorts of agencies that can help you undo the damage inflicted by the your forefathers, and mothers, most likely. Family and children services, counselors, spiritual centers, guidance counselors, SC. But one thing be warned! Stay away from southern christen counseling. They will most like brainwash you into thinking you committed a great act of bravery, they too are extremely misguided. See if your Father will join you. There just might be hope for him as well.
You have a long road of reconstruction ahead. But you will be amazed at your new found strength and serenity as you mend
Take Care, and hoping that peace may come your way
 
Love the animals. God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled. Do not trouble it, don't harass them, don't deprive them of their happiness, don't work against God's intent.
-Dostoyevsky
 
You are a typical American Christian, fat and eager to kill. See you in hell, son.
 
Joseph
 
You are pathetic, Its too bad that it didn't turn around and sit on your sorry ***!!!
 
What kind of hard on can an eleven year old boy get when his "excited" father and guides get to ejaculate over killing. Oh, isn't it so exciting. Jesus ate fish and as a Jew would never have touched a pig. Christian indeed. Did Jesus carry a weapon?  Hunting should be outlawed. Wild animals have a tough time of survival as it is without having to be killed for
someone's entertainment. Why don't you go out into the woods naked and try to survive by drinking from creeks, digging grubs and burrowing into some kind of hole for shelter, let alone have to avoid hunters like yourself. Someday I hope you have the courage to look back on killing this tremendous animal and feel the guilt and shame for doing so. It's not likely someone so young has the capacity to question what their parents teach but my hope for you is that someday you realize their error, put the gun away and go on to better things.
 
Your parents are great parents letting you run around with a gun at the age of 11.  What's next?   I suppose taking it to school and seeing how many classmates you can knock off?  I would have been impressed if you would have killed it in fair game......but you went the cowardly way and used a gun.Fatty!!!!
 
Congratulations.  By breaking the 6th commandment you've earned your spot in hell. Luckily not all America is like this, fat kids with guns killing innocent beasts -- and allowing Satan to delude them into believing they are doing God's work. Today I pray for your soul.
 
I hope you'll be shot someday.. People like you shouldn't live (yes i mean it) May you burn up in hell, pigh4ter!

Total fake. Not only was it not as big as claimed, it's definitely not a "wild" hog. He was in a pay to shoot place that guarantees results. The more you pay, the bigger the animal. Places like these raise the animals like farm animals then place them in front of the hunter to shoot. It was probably a big hog, but not that big.

I still call BS on this one.
Today in South Florida, the father was on Paul and Young Ron in the morning show, talking about how it was immediately made into sausage.  They did not cut any other slices of meat.  They are planning on keeping some of the sausage for themselfs and donate the rest to charity and churches.

To me the whole interview sounded like a monster publicity stunt to get their 5 minutes of fame.

That makes much more sense than a feral hog growing to such a huge size on its own.
Thats what I suspected , a pen raised hog . I'm surprised that it had no identifcation such as an ear tag .
Oh well this takes all the steam out of the story of the year . New headlines boy shoots neighbors pet county fair hog ,dade sued for damages. Next ..another hog story , Rosie O'donnel leaves the view.  :K
