I am going to say shopped only for the reason I find it hard believe that the fish could have survived with both bodies and no atrophy of either, and the line where they join is pretty distinct which you would not anticipate to see in any creature who had matured this way.

Just an opinion…

It is however unlikely, possible so I could be wrong.

Judges...a ruling.

All your smurf are belong to smurf! (a funny short spoof of all your base are belong to us)

For some reason this picture reminded me of the end of that. If you look closer; the one on the left is smaller and more atrophied looking, and the other looks dominant. However I think it was 2 seperate fish and shopped together also because one looks like it is on it's side.

True the one on the left is smaller, but the throat whould obviously belong to the one on the right therefor all nurishment for the smaller but healthy looking body on the left would have had to come through whatever blood supply was existing between the joined heads. Likely this would not be enough to support the body on the left to the degree it appears to have matured.

Gives the term 'double pike' a whole new meaning.
These would be Chernobyl pike right?

So, it's real unless someone can prove it's fake?
Then the Loch Ness Monster must be just as real.

sorry guys i've been real sick lately and my temper is pretty short.

i've seen this before, but i've also seen shopped ripoffs of the same phenomenon. it could go either way. i can't say for sure, and am too sick to do a good search.
i should have said please prove it fake if you can.
sorry again

I'm going to say it's real. I've looked at the pixels zoomed and there's nothing fake looking. Check the textured concrete background, it's consistent across the whole image. Finally the attitude of the bodies looks like they're in an authentic slump. It'd be very hard to achieve all this convincingly.

PS And if it was fake you'd try to make the lesser fish more like the other?
