lol seems fake to me - loaded image to PSP and the digit 8 seems far far too close to the edge.
but that could be shadowing.
last 3 digits could be genuine but 17 has a feint band thru digits where it has DEFINATELY been edited.

the 3 and 8 do look a bit off....

but wow.......you managed 17638!!!

gosh.....dats fast!!!!

[domw]

Wow. You guys obviously take your powerballing far too seriously - well you must do if you think i would actually spend any time modifying the image.

No, the image is not fake. I am 6'7" and I represent my University in Rowing. However, I am entirely aware that the score is phenomenally high and that it will, naturally, attract a degree of skepticism. However do you not think it might be wise for you to consider that there is more likelihood of the digital monitor having failed or glitched?

Furthermore I am already on the leaderboard at 14 odd thousand.

Really, guys, cover your asses when you're criticising so vehimentaly.

So, for the record (and in response to the ultra cool sounding member 'The Force'), I do think you're 'really stupid'. At least in the sense that you didnt wait to consider that the reading itself is genuine.

Perhaps you should get out more?

All of the above applies to you too. You seem to have studied the image like a scientist, yet your opinion is based on nothing more than that, your flawed opinion.

And with regards to picture quality, my camera is simply being awkward so I shall try with a mobile phone camera instead because the sony digi cam is never capturing a crisp image.

You should DEFINATELY think before you post.

if you had a world record i'm sure we would never hear the end of it.. this is what i think happened..

Soon as i see the video i will fully believe it, until then i am 50/50.

It's such a great achievement it's really hard to believe without seeing.

Hopefuly you'll get a video up soon of you going for 16k+

Should be good to watch, good luck!

PS guys chill out.
