Good one Ron, However, Urban Legends doesnt state that the picture is false and the cat is not really that big. They're just saying the attached story or legend is false.

But one thing that truely leads me to believe this is a manipulated phot is the cat's tail. Look closely at it. It doesnt look quite right the way it comes in. The cat's right paw also doesnt look quite right. It looks more like the cat was walking.

My guess is that the original photo had the man holding a dog or something about that same size. Then the took a picture of a cat and placed it in place of the dog.

I'm no photo wizard...that's just my guess.
