Patterson Gimlin Bigfoot Video

[Hidden_Hand]

Would you say these are monkeys or people? These are much more convincing and they were played by actual people in costumes, and in 1968.

I mean they look like men in suits. There is nothing animal-like about them. The proportions, movements etc.

That thing in the video looks off, the build, way it walks etc. I dunno maybe it is just a hoax? A very good one at that.

Bigfoot was born from a hoax.
A log cutter guy thought it would be fun to make some giant size feet and press them out in the mud. Then millions of signings followed that.

You do know that through the history of early man we had stories of them right? This didn’t start with a log cutter

I'm pretty sure a couple of city big foots sent me messages on the dating app I have on my phone.

There is nothing animal about a dude wearing a fur suit and diaper walking through the woods either

Gorillas weren't discovered until 1900.

Gorillas were actually believed to be a myth and not real, much like Bigfoot until the 1900’s when they finally found some after many expiditions

The Romans knew about Gorillas and the Carthaginians sold them

I will ask my friend who for years did creature effects for Hollywood films about this. As an added benefit he's worked with Bigfoot/yeti suits. He is basically an expert in this

 

[BKMMAFAN]

The existence of such a large ape would leave a footprint on the ecosystem that would be visible, outside of the lack of fossil/skeletal evidence. Breeding populations of extremely large apes would've been discovered by means other than direct observation in the US. It's all a farce. Money making grifters continue to push it to make $$.

Nothing in that link discernably confirms the footage is proven fake? Not from what can see? The links just go to an old website?

I have been looking into this the past couple of days; it really is an interesting one. I'm a sceptic for everything in life as some of you know on here. I don't believe in aliens, loch ness, spirits etc. But this footage is odd...

This thing moves odd and looks odd, now can it be a man in a suit? Of course but in 1968? I mean it would be the greatest costume ever made for that time period... Making the best of Hollywood and designers look like amateurs. It's weird.

But then I say, how could we not have found something by now? We surely would have? Where could these things be hiding?

I'm torn on the subject tbh

i hope you continue to look more deeply into it. please check out jeff meldrum a phd in anthropology (with a specialty in tracks and bipedal movement) at idaho university who received tenure even though he does a lot of work with bigfoot----

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Meldrum

he says there is enough evidence from impossible to fake castings (lots of them) to warrant real scientific investigation.

i would also recommend this channel on youtube- bobgymlan

i would also recommend listening to a few dozen accounts from various pages on youtube that publish them. here is one worth listening too.

I don't know bout you all but that Leg jiggle and seamless look back creeps me the shit out

Are some of you going to tell me the suits above aren't cheap enough ?

What a great unintentional coinky dink

Bob Gimlin interview conducted last week

Dude you can literally see the flaps on its butt like cloth or something flapping around while it walks lmao

 

[BearGrounds]

Anyone see the unwonted sasquatch doc? Interesting stuff

That documentary (Unwonted Sasquatch) and "Bigfoot's Reflection" are the two that I always recommend to people who are interested in the topic. Both are very well done.

Trailers:

I dont understand people saying the technology wasn't there to make a gorilla/ape suit these are all pre Patterson Gymlin footage. Not saying it's not real but ruling out that no one could make a suit like it I find false.

Also note that some of these suits have proper gorilla arm length so I don't believe that to be a good indicator it's not a suit. Plus arm length varies greatly among humans , how many threads have there been on Jon Jones unfair advantage or fighters with Trex arms?

One of the best make up artist to ever exists ( Rick Baker) thinks it's a suit. I'll take his word over Bill Munns seeing as Baker hasn't written a book about it and profited off it.

I want to believe but I need more than grainy footage from the 60s before I can.

 

[minute bull]

Literally any picture/video etc that can be faked with a camera in under 30 minutes

Bigfoot crowd : "ik it cant be proven but I find it compelling evidence"

If there is a hoax it's the guys pretending there isn't a Bigfoot.

Lay off the pot, kid.

Seriously.

Da fuk is up with the soles of his feet, they look like shoes, or the bottom of a... costume?

Also, convenient how he looks around at camera at perfect moment (for effect) but gives no fucks about the human and carries on strutting.

IT'S A MAN IN A SUIT AND GRAINY OLD FOOTAGE Ffs

hilarious that this is still being humoured.

do Loch Nessy next

The Romans knew about Gorillas and the Carthaginians sold them

Which was believed to be myth, by modern man at the time.

Much like the Romans having accconts of personal meetings with Zues ...

It's not like that.

I WANT to believe but there was an admission that it was faked by one of the makers of the film. I have seen it before but now I can’t find it....weird.

The thing is this - every year we send out search teams for lost hikers who presumedly want to be located, we know their whereabouts, yet we find nothing. Couple that with the idea that there are fewer people in the bush now as opposed to just a few hundred years ago and it wouldn't surprise me that we can't find a sparse population of intelligent animals that don't want to be found. I've spent hundreds of hours in the bush just an hour outside of Calgary and you can go all day without seeing anyone else. We're not exactly a hunter gatherer society anymore and most people don't go 10 from a paved road.

No, the Congo isn't America, but it does have some challenging geography and isn't a densely populated as Europe. Scientists didn't believe Congo locals just as they don't listen to the First Nation's folks who think Sasquatch is real.

Does that mean there's a Bigfoot? I want to believe, but just don't.

The difference with Congo's case is Africa have actual (big) apes, so the idea of a variant of existing known races feel less absurd.
The Bili ones are "just" a different kind of chimps, wich is extraordinary already, but very far from what would be find a 300+ kg ape in a cold climate(gorilla, oragutan and chimp are all in warm ones) in a continent that have no great apes, and no primates at all in the northern half

We also have that Congo was far more problematic to explore by scientists (usually western people) because wars, and on general is a less safe situation

There are reasons if the idea of discover new big animals (subspecies of already known animals) in africa is more probable, and yet still not easy
