‘Alien’ in Real Life?
Leave it to the Russians to find a prehistoric “fish” in an underground river. Seriously, it’s like all the cool stuff you can find is over there in the motherland.
It’s Alien!
Take a look at the picture below:
Property of whoever that site took it from. Larger version over there.
Now, look at the life-form from the first ‘Alien’ movie:
From IMDB.
Similar?
I don’t know about you, but these two seem very very similar to me. I know, one has “legs” and the other doesn’t, but I’m talking about the overall appearance. The overall structure. The Russian-found “fish” looks a little bit like one of those horseshoe-crabs, but I think it’s pretty obvious the writers of Alien had prescience and knew what this thing would look like.
Eat My Face, Please
What would have happened if the Russian workers hadn’t killed it? Would it have jumped on one of their faces? Probably, since they mentioned that story about throwing it food, and it trying to attack them. Would it have embedded itself in your stomach, waiting for the right time to explode out of your chest in a fit of unmitigated fury? Probably, since they look similar.
And, most importantly, would it eventually also live inside of something like a cow, resulting in an alien-human-cow crossbreed that creates an immensely strong and intelligent creature that wants to destroy/eat every human it comes in contact with? Definitely.
I bet it would even fight a different alien race for ownership/supremacy over the puny humans.
