They claimed a team of home school kids excavated a dinosaur skeleton and it proved the Earth was only 6,000 years old. The entire thing was a lie. In the early 2000s, a small religious home school supply company released a documentary. The movie claimed to depict a group of 30 home school kids discovering and excavating a fully-intact Allosaurus skeleton - the first of its kind ever found. The documentary was massively popular on the religious home school racket, and made the company owner, Doug Phillips, rich. However, as time went on, people would slowly discover the truth - that the entire thing was a lie. And Doug Phillips was hiding something even darker. On this episode of Deep Cuts, we examine the craziest dinosaur hoax in history.
