Don't Believe It, 31 October 2008
5/10
Author: Clay Loomis from Arroyo Grande, California

Chinless wonder, Robert Ripley, brings us a man that stacks 12 billiard balls on one hand, a blind man that says he built a house, and a toothless man pronouncing a 124 letter word. Beyond that, this short has nothing more than Ripley pretending to draw pictures of people he says exist. Like a woman with a tattoo of her husband on her tongue and a Chinese man with fingernails two feet long. Unfortunately for the Ripster, the picture he supposedly draws shows the fingernails to be straight, which is not at all possible.

This is another in a series of Ripley shorts that are long on story and short on facts. I could draw a picture of a puppy with wings flying over Pittsburg, but would you believe it? I wouldn't.

About average for a Ripley short.
