Ok, watching History Channel and they had a thing on dragons. They then show a pickeld dragon, they don't say if real or fake, just show it. It
looks real, the Museum of History in England wanted to study it, the documents that came with it described how it was caught/made making it centuries
of years old. Yet they don't say if it was real or not!!!!!!! So I got pictures of it to show you.

It was a hoax
An author who was so desperate to get his book published faked it. Allistair Mitchell's first book was turned down by 7 publishers and 36 literary
agents, he didn't let that stop him. He pretended that he had found a baby dragon in a jar, complete with wings, and this propelled his book,
Unearthly History (about dragons) into a huge marketing deal with book chain Waterstones

Dragons were real just not in the way we invision then today

well it can very well be scientifically explained how dragons are real.
1st. the fire breathing of a dragon as is in many of the myths is quite simple. platinum metal combined with some hydrogen and boom fire now that
rouses another question how can a dragon have hydrogen and platinum in its mouth of body. simple they could have a glan that produces hydrogen and for
the platinum, well obviously they have hard teeth they simply could have taken chunks of platinum and stored it in the back of their mouth.
2nd. the flying can be easily solved as well while as some people may state that dragons can't be real because they have 4 legs and 2 wings and are
much to heavy to fly. Well obviously birds have hollow bones so why can't dragons have hollow bones and also people always assume that dragons had
wings like that of a bat but why can't they be feathered? some of the dinosaurs were feathered. and last the fact that dragons supposedly are cold
blooded reptiles and shouldn't be able to stand the lack of heat at such altitudes. I do know that it is highly logical but why can't they just
breath some fire on them selves to keep warm while in flight. Those are just some things i've collected from various sites and also animal planet.

I would like to simply remind folks that just becasue you want something to be real doesn't mean "it just has to be!" or that science "can explain
but chooses not to", no matter how badly you want it to be true
Because you see it in a video game, or Harry Potter rides one, or you read it about in your favorite book does not make it science fact.
I just wanted to remind everyone of that fact.
Thank you.

Dear friend, what you say is very logical, but the oposite can be true also!
So alow me to compose your words in favor of my logic:
""""I would like to simply remind folks that just becasue you want something to NOT be real doesn't mean "it just has to NOT be!" or that
science "can explain but chooses not to", no matter how badly you want it to NOT be true
Because you see it in a video game, or Harry Potter rides one, or you read it about in your favorite book does not make it science fact.But untill
further proofs all is possible!!
I just wanted to remind everyone of that fact."""""
Thank you.

Oh I guess you have not heard the theories that man walked with the dinosaurs? I believe this and I also believe that dragons are real and man was
witness to them.

That has to be one of the single funniest things ive ever read on ATS. They just have to bite into chunks of platinum to store it in the back of their
mouths? Oh yeah, i forgot how abundant our platinum source was. Breath fire on themselves to keep warm? are you 12? and the best part...... They
werent cold blooded and were never claimed t be col blooded, their blood was thought to be literally boiling. and if it was cold blooded, then its
body would adapt to any temperature. Warm blooded animals are the ones that dont adapt, were warm blooded, and thats why we get cold.

Truly awesome picture, but it's got to be fake.
No mention as to whether it is a fetus or an adult mini-dragon.
I figure if it was a fetus I would expect to see some cuteness qualities about it like a bigger head and big puppy dog-like eyes.
But then again it is a reptile and there is nothing cute about a baby reptile because they are proportionally slightly similar to adults.
But then again if they are able to shape shift to and from human form, they must have some human qualities as well, so again where are the big cute
eyes?
But then again I've never seen a real dragon.
Probably someone's college science/art project.
Kudos to the sculpter.

I’ve recently had my own theory that dragons are the reptilian aliens...
like for example the fire breathing is just the weapon of the alien craft, and the wings are that back in the middle ages they thought the only thing
that could fly had to have wings so for these aliens to be able to fly the must have wings.....this also goes hand in hand with angels as well.
i've made a thread about this which is in the alien / ufo section

i think they could be real because if you think about it all a dragon is is a big lizerd with bat or bird wings and they mite have hollow bones or not
but you know there here have been much weirder things in this world don't you think?
