Marc Adamus has nearly topped himself (a very difficult task, to be sure) with his latest bullshit. A trip to the BC mountains (presumably) has produced some of Marc’s greatest bull shit yet. Here’s the image, and a complete quote off photo.net:
Marc Adamus: Ten Thousand Years, and maybe Ten Thousand LIES? |
“I was dropped off by float plane on a remote lake in the central Pacific Range of British Columbia, one of the most remote mountain ranges on the Continent. As soon as the hum of the plane was out of sight, I spent two and a half weeks completely alone (well, there were Grizzlies, goats, marmots and a host of wildlife around at all times) without any reminder of humanity. I backpacked every different direction from my drop-off point every day I was out. I marveled at the sweeping Glaciers, 5000-ft sheer mountain walls, waterfalls, wildlife and some of the best mountain flowers I've ever seen. Above all else though, this place amazed me the most. Donning crampons and ice tools, I entered the interior of an enormous glacier where it was cracking apart and had a rushing river flowing through it. The ice - clear and blue as any I have ever seen, was hulled out in places creating rooms up to 40ft high and 100ft across! I could hardly believe my eyes inside this frigid fantasy world that had likely never been seen by anyone in its entire existence. I spent half of two days inside here getting drenched and cold, and managing to avoid the occasional falling car-sized ice chunk :-) I took many pictures and some provide you with a bit more sense of scale than this, but this particular abstract caught my eye. For me it looks like an alien world and the viewer is almost unsure where it leads or what's going on. That's exactly how I felt here, although no photo would ever do justice to the place.”
Where am I even supposed to start? Here’s my standard Marc Adamus claim analysis format:
Marc Adamus Claim | My analysis |
“I was dropped off by float plane on a remote lake in the central Pacific Range of British Columbia, one of the most remote mountain ranges on the Continent. | How many times can you use the word “remote” in a single sentence? |
As soon as the hum of the plane was out of sight, I spent two and a half weeks completely alone | No doubt, being completely “alone” was key to Marc’s trip. That way, no one can contradict Marc’s version of events. |
without any reminder of humanity | Sad, pathetic pandering to the LOSERS who crowd at popular national park viewpoints in hopes of elusive fame. |
I backpacked every different direction from my drop-off point every day I was out | Yes sir, 360 different directions. Maybe more if you figure half-degrees. |
I marveled at the sweeping Glaciers, 5000-ft sheer mountain walls, waterfalls, wildlife and some of the best mountain flowers I've ever seen | Interesting that we have no photos of any of this, and more importantly, any mention of where exactly Marc was, so we could perhaps, I don’t know, verify his story. Yes, so shocking, I know! |
. Donning crampons and ice tools, I entered the interior of an enormous glacier where it was cracking apart and had a rushing river flowing through it | Glacial “ice caves” don’t have ice on the bottom, too. After all, Marc himself said there was a river at the bottom. |
The ice - clear and blue as any I have ever seen, was hulled out in places creating rooms up to 40ft high and 100ft across! | Similar figures have been quoted by Marc Adamus, in the past. According to Marc Adamus, practically any natural feature related to caves is 50 feet high and over 100 ft across (and over 500 feet long, of course) |
I could hardly believe my eyes inside this frigid fantasy world that had likely never been seen by anyone in its entire existence | Well, how are we to verify this one, huh? Remember that Marc conveniently never mentioned exactly which place he went to! Surely, that’s just a huge oversight. |
I spent half of two days inside here getting drenched and cold, and managing to avoid the occasional falling car-sized ice chunk :-) | Managing to avoid the occasional falling car-sized ice chunk? Really? What won’t Marc’s LOSER fans believe? |
I took many pictures and some provide you with a bit more sense of scale than this, but this particular abstract caught my eye | We’re never going to see any of those images that provide a bit more sense of “scale”, of course. |
For me it looks like an alien world and the viewer is almost unsure where it leads or what's going on | I’m unsure what is going on, in terms of processing and lying, with Marc’s images, most of the time. |
That's exactly how I felt here, although no photo would ever do justice to the place | Marc has recently started including this line in every narrative he spews, trying to paint himself as a little more humble than the public has been led to believe. |
CONCLUSION:
As usual, the LIES and rhetoric only increase and worsen as Marc feverishly works overtime to establish himself as the best of the best, with the help of his willing, LOSER fans. This latest trip will not sell any images for Marc, but that’s not the point. It once again “establishes” Marc’s “bona fides” as a Real Adventurer, helping to sell workshops to LOSERS like Kevin Mcneal, Chris Moore MD, Ryan Dyar, and the hundreds of drooling fanatics on photo.net.
