Just saw this and was really surprised at what technology can do or achieve. According to the report. Detectives used computer forensic techniques that have helped to catch fugitive mafia bosses to generate the image. First, they created a photo-fit picture from the facial image in the Turin Shroud, which many believe is that of Jesus (top-left thumbnail). Then they used a computer program to reverse the ageing process (top left to bottom-right) to arrive at the younger Christ (left). Italian police used the same digital techniques, but in reverse, to create updated photo-fit images of fugitive mafia bosses whose faces have not been seen for years. The image of the young Jesus was created to coincide with the latest exhibition of the Turin Shroud at Turin Cathedral which is expected to attract millions of visitors, including Pope Francis.
Photos: The 'face' of Jesus as a boy?
