believe me, you skullcap a deer with a big bore rifle like .308 at 50-100 yards you're gonna blow that fucking head to pieces. or at the very least lift the top right off it.
in the end, there's just no way any of us can know if the pic is real or not. to me the eyes just don't look right. looks much more like some sort of latex prosthetic fx crew work to me.

Ya, but this is supposedly a shotgun blast. you don't think a 12 gauge under the chin would blow his face clean off? I'm thinking that would be a pretty good possibility. And there is also the potential that there was massive amounts of tissue hanging there and they had to cut it off before the picture was taken.
I also know a cop that was unfortunate enough to be come across a suicide by shotgun scene like this, where the person didn't die instantly from the blast. He said he was doing "curlies" around the floor and they basically had to sit back and watch him spin until the ambulance showed up (a curly is the old technique that Curly used to pull in the three stooges on the ground.) he told me his face was blown clean off but the brain was undamaged since the person didn't point the gun at the proper angle.
