Plane crash seen as answer to Canada's severed feet mystery

The coroner insists that it's not a crime thriller: just a simple case of disarticulation.

But the people of Vancouver, where five human feet have washed up in the past ten months, are not so sure.

The first foot was found last August, on Gabriola Island. The fifth was found on Monday by a man walking along the Fraser River, in a suburb of the Canadian port city. â€œHe saw a shoe floating in the water, pulled it to the shore and called police,â€

So if they don't find the matching feet then one may assume that something is afoot!

If they wern't severed, what happened, they just fall off of someone when they were out for a jog and the runner "didn't notice" they were down a foot?

I am thinking that someone out there (err, I mean around here since I am in Tacoma) has a collection of spare parts.

I think what they mean is that they weren't cut off with a saw or an axe or something.
