Eighth Severed Foot Washed Ashore

 

Canada: For the eighth time in two years a severed foot has washed ashore on the west coast of North America. The latest foot, which washed up on a beach in Vancouver, came enclosed in a white Nike running shoe - size 8.5.

Of the feet that have washed ashore only one has been identified. It is unclear who the other feet belonged to or where they came from as a shoe can protect a foot for a long period of time in the water.

"There has been no evidence to date to support foul play in relation to these discoveries and it appears that all remains separated from the body, disarticulated, through a natural process," said police.

  Another One?  
 Are any us buying that this is a natural thing that size 8.5 feet with shoes on then, all of them right feet, are falling off naturally?

It can´t be a graveyard unless people are now being buried with sneakers and their right feet can take off from the caskets and the cement box or vault depending on which you buy.

I think they are doing a very poor job of trying to convince the public that this is some natural process that spits out right feet sized 8.5

  @Tara  
 I was sure there was a pair earlier on... I´ll have to check that.

I share your skepticism about feet just naturally washing ashore. I can tell you I haven´t heard of it happening on any Australian beaches, but then again the sharks that are big enough to swallow you whole that are lurking off our beaches are probably grabbing them. *nods unconvincingly*

 Nice.

Maybe they´re victims of plane crashes or something, it can take an awful long time for parts like that to wash up on shore, and if there´s not much of a stump left in that foot, it´s probably undesirable for the sea critters to try to eat a Nike...

 Only feet wash on the beach, and only in British Columbia. The natural world is astounding.

 I also think all those naturally separated size 8.5, right feet on top of that. Oh! and in this case wearing a sneaker.

I couldn´t find it happening on any of the Great Lakes here so it is only Canada that is that lucky...wait Havoc did say he got a new job



Naw, couldn´t be he isn´t that warped. ;-)

  "natural process"  
 It seems pretty clear to me that the "natural process" they are referring to is the way that the feet separated from the ankle.

Sure, they could have been killed by aliens and had most of their bodies eaten by demons but the right foot separated as part of the natural decay of the remains.

  It´s pretty boring here  
 I´m sure someone just snapped and started chopping peoples feet off cause they were literally bored out of their minds. To illustrate, the only thing anyone ever talks about here is the weather, which never changes from perpetual overcast and rain all year round! Another reason why more people should play video games; no wowaholic would have the time in between doing achievements, making tribute runs, or pwning face in arenas to stalk people, kill them, amputate their feet, and leave the feet out on the beaches for the homeless to eat er... I mean find.

  Most  
 Most likely gang related. Im sure these people were either killed or taken out on a boat and killed then dumped to the bottom of the ocean. Many shoes have air pockets and float, this has been said before

  Bet  
 they are from the Asia/Russia costals.

The Asian´s keep losing dozen of bodies in their almost biweekly Ferry sinkings.

And them Russians well... we shouldn´t talk about that.

  Not all right feet...not all size 8.5  
 Read the source: "including one later determined to have belonged to a missing man who was depressed. The other feet discovered include a female pair, a male pair and a male right foot."

  Foot Fetish  
 I don´t know why feet are washing up on British Columbia beaches but I can tell you it is freaking me out and my wife refuses to stay at our cottage in the Gulf Islands by herself since all this stuff happened.
