Goodness! These images have popped up online in China, with people speculating that this gentleman is slicing open a real dragon. He's not. Know how I know? There's no such thing as real dragons. I think.
Note: This post might contain imagery that dragon lovers find disturbing.
Commenters online in China are quick to point out that the photos are either digitally manipulated or feature a dragon toy. Even so, they cut a rather freaky image, no? (No pun intended!)
According to one Chinese net user, "Even if this was a Photoshop, I'm scared just looking at it."
