Canoe Kayak man - we knew it.

Not only did everyone know it, but a woman (not a detective or journalist) googled “John,” “Anne,” and “Panama” and came up with a dated photo from 2006 that she sent to cops and the Daily Mirror:

The amateur Google sleuth who found the image said she decided to search because she was certain everyone must have an online trace - even those who want to disappear.

“I’m a skeptic. Nobody can simply vanish in this day and age, there has to be something, some sign,” she told the Daily Mirror.

“I’d like to nominate them for ‘World’s Dumbest Awards’,” she added.

“Not only were they photographed, but the date was actually on the picture. It was just too good to be true.”

The photo showing the couple together, smiling side by side, was taken when they stayed in an apartment rented through the firm Move to Panama.

I hope she gets her own show: Mom Detective!

  4. That’s pretty much a losing battle for our kayaker, though - the whole world is calling the guy “canoe man.”
