Amazing job on the overlay Dimples & thanks for positng the links!

If yall liked the overlay check this out.......

OMG!!!! THAT MERGE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!

If this turns out NOT to be him then I think they need to check Steve Dewey's background and see if maybe he was adopted and BK is his twin, Back in those days they DID seperate twins in adoptions.

Look at the under the eye bags the macth is dead on!!!!! WOW!!!!! Im am SOOO excited, that he might actually find out who is really is!!!

 

[superunknown]

Again, you folks are amazing! I would be shocked if this was not him, the resemblance is eerie!

 

[SeriouslySearching]

I don't see how it would be possible for it to not be him...altho there is no explanation how he could travel across the ocean and land in Georgia. This tends to make me question the way he went missing in the first place. Of course, this is what we do...bounce the theories around here.

That piratcy thing that someone mentioned (two or three pages ago) really made a lot of sense to me. Perhaps he was found floating, someone picked him, at the time he may have known who he was and where he's from. They brought him to the US via the Ocean. He could have been dropped off near a military station off the east coast of the States. Then he somehow managed to make it to Richmond Hill. By this time he was more than likely beyond delirium. The condition of his eyes, the amount of hair loss shows that. It all makes sense to me.

One thing that bothers me is, I dont see the indintation on the bottom of his cheek the way BK has. The mark that he thought might have been from a tooth problem.

 

[SeriouslySearching]

It is possible when he lost weight in his face so quickly, the muscle atrophied. It is fairly common as I have had this happen to me with steriod injection sites now twice.

Here are the photos I used for the overlay and the merge........

Thanks, Dimples! Maybe it will help some to understand you took the left half of the face from the photo of Steve Dewey and the right half of Benjaman Kyle's face...and melded them side by side plus over to create the last one. The earlier one was done by laying one photo directly over the other...so you could see the underneath photo through the top one. Right?

 

[marysawol]

all I can say is WOW!

and, I've got nothing done on the homefront today cuz of all this excitement. Can't seem to break away from the computer!

 

[dimples37398]

Exactly right, SS.......

The overlay was done by putting one face on top of the other and then just making sure the main facial features are in the same area on both photos, then setting the top photo to 50% or so Opacity.....

Then the other one (merge) I just took the photo of Steve and copied only the left side of the face, and put it over the left side of BK's face....made sure they main facial features were in the right area, and that is all........

Does this answer your question about his hairline? You can see where it was thinning before and how it matches up to the hairline.

It is hard to know, if this is Mr Dewey, what happened to him in the span of time between when he was lost and then found. If my piracy theory is true, he could have been severely traumatized mentally and physically by whoever found him. There are gangs of pirates that travel around the coastal areas near Africa, and have terrorized cruise ships in that area:

So I guess it is not beyond the realm of possibility that this was the case.... If this turns out to be this man, do you folks realize this story is going to get national attention!?! It is quite amazing. I pray for his family that he is Mr. Dewey.

If it's not Mr. Dewey I still take my hat off to you all- because you all have good hearts and your work on this all comes from that place!

yes it does, thank you. it matches exactly.

There are fishermen who trade in illegal immigration between Africa and European nations, too.

This part will be up to the FBI, Coast Guard, etc. to figure out.

I just wonder after the nurse told him...what is going through Benjaman's mind? Is he remembering anything now? When he saw the photos of the family...does he recognize them in any way? So many questions!

 

[marysawol]

Did anyone send a pm to BK's nurse regarding the myspace page created by Steve's son?
