Ah yes, the clasic mantra.
You've got a lot of balls making a one liner, claiming it's "not the fake one", providing
no proof to back up
your
claim, and then asking someone else for "proof".
It was in a show on either the discovery channel or the national geographic channel.
If I'd taped it, I'd gladly send you a copy.
I'm sure there are other members here who've seen the footage as well though.
Here's some online info on the Oliver Castle footage.
Cleaner footage
Then there's this (though it's putfile link is now down)

I found this interesting video-clip from the documentary by
National Geographic presenting how the Oliver Castle video was
made, featuring John Whaley a.k.a. John Wabe himself
demonstrating how they made the fake.
The Oliver's Castle video became worldwide famous in 1997
fooling many people including myself if I may say.
Looks like it was National Geographic, not Discovery.
And there's this:

POSTSCRIPT
Since this report was written, John Wabe was traced to a Bristol video production company, and caught. He since came clean about the video being a
con, and is being prosecuted.
Past that, with this info you should be able to track down the National Geographic show and watch it yourself.
P.S. The title of the thread includes the phrase "not the fake one", "
Show me the proof of that please", since
you made the
initial claim.
If it's "not the fake one" then it
must be "real", so
you prove it.
