      Very quickly if it's anything like the modern Jesus lizards. They pull off their water-walking trick by moving so fast that their broad feet don't have time to sink. And at 2 foot, MUCH bigger than it's modern descendants, that would have to be very fast indeed.

    I'm not sure that "being dug up" counts as "risen from the dead".

    Lizard Jesus or Jesus Lizard?

    Maybe they meant the exclamation when they found the fossil then: "Oh Jesus.. it's a big lizard!".

    Disappointed

    There was no video of a current model running on water.

    So here's a link:

    I can't imagine a 2ft version doing this though, must have a hell of a turn of speed and size thirteens to go with it.

    So the consiracy theories were right.

    Lizard people go back to the Bearded One, 2000 years before Y2K.
