    I was browsing cnn.com and noticed a link to a strange old article -
    A severed human foot was found washed up on an island on the western coast of Canada this week, the fifth detached foot found in the area in the past 11 months, according to local police and media reports.

    one local had this to say
    At first, the talk about it was really humorous. But as more feet turned up, the talk became sinister," she said. "These are pristine islands, not the place where you would expect to find a bunch of severed feet.

    WTF!

    I thought that there were more found.

    There was a severed foot that was found somewhere in the UK recently as well. Obviously, there is a Canadian with a foot fetish on holidays.

    I read somewhere that the "feet" were a hoax of sorts and they were runners with stones and seaweed that someone threw into the sea for whatever reason - probably some "art" thing or other.

    Maybe feeding the ducks at lunctime got a bit boring and they needed a new pastime , so they decided to cut off the feet of dead people in the morgue and chuck them into sea ?
