<p>[The</a> Associated Press: 5th human foot washes up on Canada coast](<a href=“http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gwpc_LGEQvTbEkIxMOReKY8CyA9gD91BJHH00]The”>http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gwpc_LGEQvTbEkIxMOReKY8CyA9gD91BJHH00)</p>

<p>The others were right feet :confused:</p>

<p>Ah, the BC coast. Snow capped mountains, pristine forests, a mild climate, wonderful people, and the occasional disembodied foot.</p>

<p>^XD I got a chuckle out of that one. :)</p>

<p>This thread was posted right next to the “mtDNA testing” - creepy coincidence!</p>

<p>I love the low-key explanation, but if that’s the case why don’t feet and hands wash up other places? Five feet from at least four people in less than a year, in a relatively small area, is weird. Maybe it’s a statistical fluke, like some cancer clusters. But it seems worth looking into, as I’m sure they are.</p>

<p>Well, as long as it’s not posted right next to the “where do you want to retire?” thread…</p>

7

<p>It’s not the “footloose” retirement that I have in mind either.</p>

8

<p>ooh - ADad - that was bad - or good - depending on how you look at it. Good to see you’re putting your best foot forward on this forum!</p>

<p>For a long time we had a stray G.I. Joe foot mixed in w/ all the bathtub toys in our house. We always said it was the “extra foot” we needed in the bathroom.</p>

<p>That sure would be a creepy thing to find washed ahore tho’! <cringe></cringe></p>

<p>I **hate **when my feet spontaneously disconnect from my legs…</p>

11

<p>WashDad, I took that to mean that the feet were removed gently… no twisting or wrenching required.</p>

<p>“I hate when my feet spontaneously disconnect from my legs…”</p>

<p>You should see the latest models. (there are internal titanium bungee cords so the feet can’t go travelin’ by themselves.)</p>

13

<p>How do they know there are multiple victims… I mean maybe the person had 5 feet. Ya know, just saying…</p>

<p>;-)</p>

14

<p>I’d been wondering where I left my extra foot.</p>

15

<p>Everyone needs an extra foot here and there.</p>

16

<p>So many questions…</p>

<p>Why just feet and not hands? Is it because of the shoes? Have all the found feet had shoes on? I’m kind of curious about the shoes. This has a bit of a Twin Peaksesque quality about it…</p>

17

<p>I guess it must be because of shoes- but why so many and not reported missing?
I want to do dna testing and see if they are related.</p>

18

<p>I also want to know why I can find three extra garden gloves & they are all for my left hand?</p>

19

<p>You know, sometimes when you put your left foot in, take it out, and shake it all about - it falls off. I hate when that happens.</p>

<p>I’d lay bets that at least one of them is the foot that always ends up in my mouth.</p>
