THE SOMERTON MAN MYSTERY: THE POST AUTOPSY and PRE BUST IMAGES COMPARED, THE DIFFERENCES, YOU BE THE JUDGE>>> UPDATED_30thJanuary 2023

 

...THE PRE-BUST & POST AUTOPSY IMAGES COMPARISON...


...ARE THESE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE SAME PERSON?...

These images show some noticeable differences:

1. The Right ear is a different shape, it is vertical on the PB image and distinctly curved on the PA photo

2.  The top of the nose at the juncture with the forehead is minus some creases in the Pre-bust image but clearly present in the PA photo,  the nostrils are a different, flared shape in the PA photograph.

3. A significant difference is the presence of hair between the nostril and upper lip of the pre-bust image, it is impossible for hair to grow after death and as you can see, the Somerton Man on the right is clean-shaven after the autopsy. 

4. The upper lip is a totally different shape directly beneath the nostrils, it's known as a 'cupid's bow', it is absent on the pre-bust photo but present on the post-autopsy image.

In fact, as I review these photos,  the only similarity is in the left ear of both images which are similar but I believe there is a reason for that and it can be substantiated as you will see in some additional images and comments later in this post which I will publish shortly.

It is on record and stated by Tony Elliot, the son of the undertaker who embalmed the body, that his father would take regular trips to the West Terrace morgue to inspect and 'top-up' the fluids in the body to keep it in good shape.


COMPARISON: PRE_BUST AND CARL WEBB 3


Once again we have points of difference between the Pre-Bust image and that of Carl Webb. The image of Carl came from ABC it was originally from a small family group of 4 which shows him at around mid to late 20 years of age.

1. Carl's nostrils are more 'flared than in the per bust photo.

2. Carl's right ear has a different shape from the pre-bust photograph but there could be reasons for that, for example, the pre-bust image had been in the freezer for some months and the ear could have been flattened out. Having said that the inner ear shape is different between the two right ears.

3. Carl's left ear is noticeably different in shape, more about that in the next post

4. the hair is quite a different colour, Carl's being blonder in appearance much as it was in the photograph of the larger family group.

COMPARISON IMAGE: SOMERTON MAN AND 

CARL WEBB


The above photo has been published a few days ago but I thought I would bring it in again as it fits with the theme. There are differences between the two photographs:

1. There are major differences between the right ears of these images. Carl's right ear has quite a different shape in profile to that of the Somerton Man, it has a more pronounced outer shape, which could be because of the angle from which the photograph was taken but nothing certain about that.

2. The left ears are quite different in structure and shape, Carl's left ear is quite peculiar when you examine it carefully. More on that in the next post.

3. Car's nostrils are again more flared than the SM but that could be because of the facial expression. It is not uncommon for that to occur.

4. The hair is noticeably different in colour.

  1. Didn’t that George Webb guy that was also present at the morgue have a mustache? So is it possible they shaved him, touched up the corpse then took his picture? Sorry about my comment sounding a bit dumb lol

  2. No problems, it's a reasonable question. The Pre Bust image was taken possibly 1 week before George arrived at the morgue, at least that's my understanding. Is it possible that the photograph was taken after that time? I honestly don't know the answer to that.

    As you will see in the next post, there are some very unusual aspects to the photographs that need explanation.

  3. The new and game changing information is the hair on the upper lip of the Pre Bust man. Hair does not grow after death and the post autopsy photographs show the Somerton Man clean shaven. In fact that issue was the subject of a good number of discussions over the years. The clean shaven appearance meant that he had shaved sometime after leaving the suitcase at the Adelaide Railway Station, the issue being that his shaving kit was in that suitcase.
