Face of Jesus appears on cider bottle to amazement of pub drinkers

Posted at 3:00 pm under apparitions

[Daily Mail]

As miracles go, it is hardly in the same league as turning water into wine. But Michael Cartwright was still pretty impressed when Jesus appeared in the foil wrapping of his cider bottle down at the pub.

“When I saw it I got goose pimples,” 35-year-old Mr Cartwright said yesterday. “I have no doubt it is the face of Jesus. You can even see his beard and hair.”

Mr Cartwright, a taxi driver from Darlington, noticed the extraordinary image while drinking with a group of friends at his local, the Tanners Hall.

“As the barmaid removed the cap to the cider I suddenly realised what was staring back at me,” he added.

One of Mr Cartwright’s friends took a photograph. It was only the following morning that he realised how clear the image was. But by then it was too late to retrieve the bottle.

“It ended up getting collected by a barmaid when no one was paying attention and thrown away,” said Mr Cartwright.

[From me]

How did the Ale company know what Jesus looked like?

    That looks more like the face of a bearded alien.

    Why is it is something vaguely resembling a human head appears anywhere it is either Jesus or Mary?

    Why can’t that be Osama bin Laden?

    Funny…

    Surely you don’t think it’s just… coincidence!

    I mean, what are the chances that any face could just appear in the foil? Surely this is a miracle of some sort, and if it’s a miracle from God, it would make no sense just to stick the face of any ol’ “Joe” on it - it must be Jesus… that is unless it’s an attack of the devil. In that case, it’s probably Barry Manilow or Grover Cleveland or someone like that.

    It could be Mohammed. I saw another sighting, too, that was just as ridiculous.

    Oh great! I can see it now! Jesus sanctioned beer. “The Beer for Real Jesus Lovers!” The sad part is: someone will jump on this and try to make money from it. Even sadder: it will get marketed. When will this madness end?
