…and did you know that Paul McCartney was dead too and replaced by a body double?

See nothing like him!
Just as a matter of interest do you wear your tin foil beanie at a jaunty angle? or do you strap it on?

Strewth Bruce - that second photo should have an X Certificate.
8 or 9?
As old as that??? - personally I wouldn’t put him above 5, given his infantile contributions on here.
Whatever happened to attack the Post - not the Poster?
Realist has made several interesting and valid posts in these fora over time. Admittedly this one seems a bit strange but for all that it is an interesting theory and not one that warrants personal abuse.

Pots and kettles darlin’ - if he can’t take it then he shouldn’t dish it out!!!
I think (therefore I am), that if “they” wanted to replace Stephen Hawking with an imposter, they would have picked a better make - up artist with the prosthetic skills etc that are about these days they could have made anyone look more like Stephen Hawking than Stephen Hawking!
He looks to me like nature has done what it does to us all.
As for deceased celebs, I have a theory that somewhere there is an island, owned by a multi billionaire, where those wealthy and famous enough can retreat from public life and “die”.
They live in fabulous luxury, with powerful life-extending medications not available to us and sneak back in disguise now and then, revealing their true identity to keep up the myth of “sightings” to keep us entertained lest we forget them.
They probably squabble a lot! 
Sounds feasible, TessA, and welcome back !
Your post made me laugh Tess " they probably squabble a lot"
Welcome back 
Thanks folks! X
The Stephen Hawking conspiracy is of course not my own. It’s been out there on the T’interweb for some time. I just thought it would provide a little entertainment.
It’s curious to see so many people make up all manner of lame reasons why these huge discrepancies exist. They are essentially apologists who can’t comprehend that such things go on in the world, or are instead, members of the organisations that conduct such deceptions.
The suggestion that Hawking’s teeth are implants is ludicrous. What use does he have of teeth? He can’t move his neck, can’t speak so won’t be biting/eating food as we know it.
And even were they implants why would they put such monstrosities in? Why put just 4 in leaving him looking frankly awful?
These apologetic ideas simply do not stack up.
Something is amiss here. Exactly what it is we can perhaps debate but clearly something is not right.
So, to sum it up, all it boils down to are his teeth. His intellect and achievements are immaterial, it is just his dental profile indicating he is a fake.
Do not question the poster or the utterly stupid and ridiculous conspiracy, if you do it will only prove that you are a fully paid up member of a secret organisation like the New World Order, or the Masons, or the Brownies.
In case you are I am sitting here in my apron, blindfolded with my trouser legs rolled up…
I think I need another layer of tin foil…
No comment cos I don’t want to get a row from ST :-p
You’re safe, May, I don’t do rows.:-D:-D
Just because the poor man is so terribly deformed now doesn’t mean he wouldn’t want implants of to have his teeth attended to cosmetically. He has just as much to feel a bit vain as anyone else. It could even be medically they help his face keep some shape.
That’s not an apology btw but reasons he may have had them.
I do think some people leap to the daftest conclusion before looking at most likely reasons.
I used to know a chap had a tumour on his face he was as vain as anyone else and tried to look presentable rather than accept that tumour was all most people saw 
Julie, re your last paragraph. Yesterday I was helping as a volunteer at a club for the blind and partially sighted, which I have done now for eight years. One of our members who is totally blind due to a brain tumour recently had to have a new shunt inserted in his head. On chatting to him, he told me how concerned he was because I felt his hair was longer on one side of his head because of the surgery, and that the shunt was prominent, which it is. I did my best to reassure him that it really was not noticeable to strangers. So even someone who is totally blind cares about how they look.
Exactly ceecee, it’s a rare person wouldn’t feel like that.
Of course it’s him…I recognise his voice.
It’s ludicrous to make these accusations Realist. People who think up these things have far too much time on their hands.
He’s in the public eye so he wants to have some semblance of dignity by having dental work done. He used to have a lovely smile as a young man but over the years you could see the disease having a toll on that.
