Han Solo on Mount Everest
10:53 am, October 16, 2007

I’m really excited here. I’ve always wanted my own holy sighting, and I’ve finally had one! I’ve seen Han Solo in a photo of Mount Everest!

I have a picture of Mount Everest as my desktop? Why? Personal reasons.

Here it is. You can click the thumbnail to see it full-size.

And here’s a close-up of the section that contains my vision of St. Han:

Han Solo in Everest

I fully expect pilgrims to flock to my desktop, now. Go pilgrims!

    The force is strong with this one.

    Is this like the Magic Eye thing? I totally can’t see Han Solo. Are you high? Do I need to be high?

    I hate to correct you on an issue so central to your faith, but that is clearly Church Lady.

    Once you see it… you can’t not see it.

    I have more respect now for all of them what see Jeebus in an oil spill or whatnot.

    I’m coming to your desktop, but I shall expect food and shelter once I arrive.

    And I need a pilgrim token made of carbonite.

    im not getting it… could you maybe include one more picture with little red lines indicating the outlines of the alleged solo?

    I can’t see it. Is it supposed to be just his face or his whole body?

    I see a gorilla with steam coming out of its mouth in the thumbnail above.

    I’ma open a votive candle shop next door to your desktop so I can cash in on the lucrative pilgrimage business.

    For those who can’t see it, the three white stripes in the close-up are sleeve, shirt, and sleeve.

    I don’t think you’re grokking the pilgrimage thing. You’ve sent the pilgrimate site to us. Who would go to Lourdes if you could just download Lourdes?

    Also, why does Han have Donald Trump’s face?

    Aha! Thanks, randal. But what’s up with the dorky sunglasses, and why’s he wearing a hair shawl?

    I see a combination of Han Solo and Captain Jack Sparrow:

    I see the white shirt and vest, but the head seems to be sporting a Ancient Greek helmet.

    Heyyy… He DOES kind of look like Donald Trump!

    Lore, how do I get your job?

  • Colormist said:

    YES! Finally, after looking at this picture about 10-20 times, I see Han! Though, I agree, he has Trump Hair.

    This is not the apparition you are looking for…move along, there’s nothing here to see…

  • randal said:

    Less like Donald Trump, and more like Jerry O’Connell squinting. With an extra-long neck. And a Han Solo costume.

    I see him clearly. I also see an outline of C-3PO to the left of him (our left), and a blurry chewbacka a bit longer to the right and a bit up from him. Chewie is in the distance in the picture of Han. You can’t see Chewie very well in the close up, cause he is outside the lit area but click on the full picture of the mountain.

    It’s Pilgrimage 2.0, dude. With user-created relics and tag-clouds of miraculous cures.

  • dogimo said:

    It could be Jesus dressed as Han Solo. With a close shave, he could pull it off.

    He’s the messiah!

  • Luke said:

    That’s uncanny. There’s got to be money in this somewhere. After all, it’s what Han would want.

    All I can see is Riff from Sluggy Freelance wearing a coonskin cap.

    My wife had to point it out to me 3 times, and then trace around Han in MS Paint before I saw it.

    I’m really bad at this whole Rorschach thing.

    I see a sort of mother mary figure bestowing her arms upon whoever crosses that path.
