Chinese Dragon really exist???

[malay_tiger]

When I watched discovery channel at home, they show really interesting discovery about Dragon : A Fantasy Made Real

they said that they have found the fossil of European dragon near the icy mountain in Europe.. even test wheter the dragon that they found can produce fire through their mouth or not, amazingly according to the scientific theory that dragon really can produce fire from the mouth!!

at the end of the discovery documentary, they ask whether chinese dragon like the one that pictured in ancient vase really exist or not??

see this pics.. the picture of dragon, the fossil that they found on icy mountain..



ilustration on how it looks during ancient days




just curious, I saw this article about they show Chinese Dragon fossil at Xinwei Ancient Life Fossils Museum in Anshun, Guizhou, do anybody have the pics

LOL that is NOT a fossil. that looks like a studio prop, look at the location. and look at all that skin in tact for somethng millions of years old.

the things buried under the ice really look like being preservered, like million years of human they found on icy ice.. don't know

it's not real the discovery channel made the whole show based on theory. they were saying that if there were real dragons then that would be the possible explanation for their existence.

I have heard that Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer was in fact a Chinese dragon, but that Santa Claus got spooked when Mike Wallace started nosing around at the pole, asking embarrassing questions. To avoid taking the heat for an illegal trafficking in exotic animals charge, he dissembled by making up the story about a reindeer with a glowing nose. Since "Rudolph" had only ever been accidentally photographed on foggy, moonless nights, and with the vast public relations resources of the North Pole to support him, Santa was able to suppress the truth. The fact that the Discovery Channel (and Discovery magazine, that august journal of all things scientifical) is a product of the Disney Corporation should be ignored as irrelevant. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. Look, up in the sky... It's Tinkerbell!

Dragons are real...

I study History, and also doing history papers...

[pokute]

You need to cut back on that Puff the Magic Dragon there bibi.

but ngawww won't it be so romantic if dragons did exist? ^o^ i remember when i was little there was a tvb drama about chinese dragons . i cant remember a thing of it now except that i liked the show ! ROFLS.

[lexuos2006]

maybe they do.........just that we dont knw of it.......just because we dont knw of its existence doesnt mean that it does not exist.....

and that drawing is definitely a western dragon.....hey chinese dragons does not have hands.....

[slumbery]

how do you know chinese dragon has no hand?

if there is no dragon in this world. i wonder who's the genius that creates it.?????

[hacksign]

Dragons, like other mythical creatures, are just creation of human mind using whatever little they've seen or know about... whatever. You see remnants of "dragons" in fossil records of stuff like dinosaurs or snakes or some other amphibians so you kinda have an idea where the idea originated from. However, the things you said about breathing fire out of their mouth for that "fossil" image (which really does not look like a fossil to begin with) should have struck foul. Other than the fact it would be improbable that it could be discerned through fossil, the amount of heat and energy it would take the produce fire from the mouth would render them incapable of surviving after the first "attack."

Yeah, so... long answer short: fake.

You can buy them at your local pet store.
