 it looked like rain and rain makes sand like mub so im saying that he was placed there via photoshop

flag steveissilly (Feb 27, 2010 at 9:32)
 obvsy not photoshop, first there is sand on his tires, and his shoes. his feet have also left prints in the sand, and if you look closely you can see the tire track coming from the right. and when sand gets wet, if you put your finger in it, then take it back out, it goes back to it's normal shape, and fills up the hole, it's the same principle with the tires and feet in this photo

 and you can see his left foot has partially been sunken into the sand
