‘Antiques Roadshow’ Screws Up, Values Old High School Art Project at $50,000 [Video]

On a recent episode of "Antiques Roadshow," a very interesting and unique sculpture was valued at around $50,000. The only problem? It turned out to be someone's old high school art project, probably worth at $5 at most.

A viewer of the show recognized the highly valued object as his own art project from high school back in the '70s. What looks to us like a piece only a mother would find valuable apparently fooled even the pros.

We've often wondered just how much these "professionals" know, and while they may be very knowledgeable, this just proves that even the experts can be duped sometimes.
