A teenager hunting for birds in the jungle of a Philippine island claims to have stumbled upon a fuselage full of skeletons and a Malaysian flag, and authorities believe it could be from missing Flight MH370.
The coastal wreckage in Tawi Tawi was under investigation by local authorities in Malaysias Sabah region Monday.
The finding was reported by Jamil Omar of Borneo, 46, who says his nephew made the grim discovery in September, but didnt realize what it was as he has no access to television or newspapers.

The article doesn’t give a lot of information. How old the wreckage is, how large the debris field, etc. It could be anything or a hoax.

I heard they can’t locate the person who made the report and no one on the island knew the names of the people involved. So hoax potential is high.

The youth and pals found many skeletons in the fuselage, Omar said, some still wearing seatbelts, and more human bones nearby.If the crash was mild enough to leave skeletons in the fuselage, a few passengers would have survived.
And, of course, the ELT would have activated and been detected.

If it really is an airplane there with skeletons it is most likely from WW2. Otherwise I have my doubts. The radar most assuredly would have picked it up if it was flying in that direction.

Not to mention Jonny Quest. This sounds like an episode of that.

That aircraft looks awfully “intact” for having crashed. It looks like the nose gear’s even down. One might think that an airplane that large and out in the open would have been fairly easy to spot on satellite photos.

Even back in the dim past, I was pretty bad at identifying aircraft silhouette, but I do know one thing.
That airplane in the photo accompanying the story ain’t no Boeing 777.

Shot in Vancouver, canada except for the SF landscape shots. JJ Abrams was pissed that Fox didn’t renew. Most of the crew moved to Falling Skies and prepped for Vikings on History..

Stupid reporter tricks again. Left us hanging how with no phone, no lights, no motor car, not a single luxury, like Robinson Crusoe it’s primitive as can be did word get out to authorities. The author left it like the kids didn’t tell anyone they found a plane full of skeletons. Uh, helloooo, it’s a plane full of skeletons!

Can bodies in the open air be skeletonized in that short of a time? Ants.

Not surprising — it just doesn’t look right to me.

I have not seen that movie, but it sure looks good.
I would suggest starting with the first of the trilogy, 'The Omen' (1976) starring Gregory Peck and Lee Remick, and then 'Damien Omen II' with William Holden, Lee Grant and Robert Foxworth (among others), which will give you a full view and understanding of the 'Final Conflict'.
The character of Damien Thorn is (IMHO) one of the great tragic dramas of modern cinematography. It combines the prophetic Scriptures of the Bible regarding the End Times and the 'Beast' of Revelation 13, with modern events regarding the life of the Antichrist before he achieves ultimate power.
Unfortunately the story line does not completely line up with Scripture, however it is still an exceptionally well done series of films, the second one (Damien II) stars a young actor by the name of Jonathan Scott-Taylor who portrays the Antichrist as a young adolescent who unexpectedly discovers his true fate, that he is in fact doomed eternally, that young actor did a superb job, and curiously, after the film was released, he never again worked in the industry and deliberately chose to fade into obscurity.
I don't think you'll be disappointed. Enjoy!
