Freelance journalist Jim Stone asserts in a bombshell report that Malaysian Airlines flight MH370 passenger Phillip Wood covertly hid his cellular phone on his person after noticing the airliner was being hijacked and flown off course.
Stone claims that metadata within the photo yields evidence confirming the passenger sent the all-black image, along with a brief voice-activated text, from GPS coordinates, which put Wood only a few miles away from the U.S.-controlled Diego Garcia military base when the image was taken.
Stone claims that the metadata coordinates are within several miles of Diego Garcia, demonstrating validity to other claims. Stone speculates the photo was taken in a dark room or in a position where Wood’s hands were bound.
“I have been held hostage by unknown military personnel after my flight was hijacked (blindfolded),” stated the text message. “I work for IBM, and I have managed to hide my cell phone in my ass during the hijack.”
“I have been separated from the rest of the passengers and I am in a cell. My name is Philip Wood. I think I have been drugged as well and cannot think clearly.”
Shockingly, a blank black image labeled “1395192158752.jpg” contains the following metadata:
- Dimensions: 240 x 320
- Device Make: Apple
- Device Model: iPhone 5
- Color Space: RGB
- Color Profile: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
- Focal Length: 4.12
- Alpha Channel: No
- Red Eye: No
- F Number: 2.4
- Exposure Program: 2
- Exposure Time: 1/15
Stone points out in detail how the above Exchangeable Image Format (EXIF) image data is the “smoking gun,” writing:
The Exif is intact. Exif data is embedded in every image by every camera and includes the circumstances under which the photo was taken. You can view it by saving the image to your desktop, right-clicking it, and selecting image properties. Then, hit the details tab.
The image was taken on March 18 with an iPhone 5, an ISO of 3200, and a shutter speed of 1/15.
The EXIF data includes the coordinates because the iPhone knows where it is, and the coordinates are for Diego Garcia. THE FIRST TIME A BLANK PHOTO SAID IT ALL.
Exif data can’t be rewritten with standard software; it can only be added to fields such as image credits with some advanced applications. It can also be erased but NOT CHANGED. Photos with the exif intact will hold up in court.
If the Exif is hacked and this is not real, the CIA or an excellent hacker did this, which I doubt is probably accurate.
Another smoking gun is the voice recognition software putting the word personal instead of personnel. This is entirely consistent with a blind software-assisted dial-out.
Surrounding this story is the fact that the man who managed to get this information to Farganne (forum member Glitch) was harassed and received many threatening voicemails; that is another piece of evidence pointing to this as accurate. One thing is sure: once it’s posted here on this site, the genie will be OUT OF THE BOTTLE.
I cannot stress how important it is that the GPS coordinates in the photo do not perfectly match what Google says and are not posted anywhere on the web. This proves that the source of those coordinates did not come from Google or Wikipedia; they really did come from the imaging device, and it HAD TO be at Diego Garcia when it took the photo.
