Is Quaden Bayles 18? the web questions his age as money pours certain a bullied Australian boy

Is Quaden Bayles an 18-year-old prankster, or

is he actually a 9-year-old boy who was bullied because he has dwarfism?

That is the Internet’s burning question this weekend, just days after a now-viral video shows Bayles crying and wishing for somebody to kill him because schoolmates taunted him about his height.

In short order, celebrities et al. from across the planet raised money and offered rare opportunities for the boy, who has ach"art-7">“Quaden Bayles — who gained the sympathy of legions of supporters, including actor and fellow Aussie Hugh Jackman — is basically 18 and “scammed everybody,” tweeted Jasmein Dowe on Friday, consistent with several Twitter users who reposted the accusation with some photos of an adult-looking Bayles from his Instagram page. Dowe’s Twitter account seemed to are taken down later Friday.”

Outlets just like the Post and therefore the Washington Post have disputed the account, but debates on Facebook and Twitter rage on. Snopes, the last word spoof reality checker, has also weighed in and decided to dispute Dowe’s claim, marking the thought of him being 18 as false.

“Yarraka Bayles, Quaden’s mother, has posted dozens of images of him over the years to her social media accounts. In 2012, she shared a series of photographs that showed her infant son on the beach. Bayles commented on those photographs that her son was happening 15 months old,” Snopes writes.

“If Quaden Bayles was truly 18 years old in February 2020, that might make him about 11 within the 2012 photographs. But that certainly isn’t the case.”

The video, which has been reacted to over 1,000,000 times, are often seen below.
