Bigfoot and the Patterson-Gimlin Film

The Patterson-Gimlin Film of a supposed Bigfoot was taken in 1967 in Northern California.  Here's what they say about it on Yahoo.com.

The Patterson–Gimlin film is a famous short motion picture of an unidentified subject the film makers purported to be a "Bigfoot", that was supposedly filmed on October 20, 1967, by Roger Patterson and Robert "Bob" Gimlin on Bluff Creek, a tributary of the Klamath River about 25 road miles north-west of Orleans, California. The film has been subjected to many attempts both to debunk and authenticate it. Most scientists who have studied the film have judged it to be a hoax with a man in an ape suit. Other scientists have done studies purporting to be scientific analyses concluding that the alleged creature is likely non-human. Both Patterson and Gimlin have always insisted they encountered and filmed a real Bigfoot, not a man in a costume. Patterson died of cancer in 1972. Patterson's friend and business associate, Gimlin, has always denied being involved in any part of a hoax with Patterson. Gimlin avoided publicly discussing the subject from at least the early 1970s until about 2000 when he began giving interviews and making appearances at Bigfoot conferences.

One man claims it was him in an ape suit, promised $1000 to act for the film.  He was never paid.

My initial reaction to the film was that it appears to be a man in a suit.  His gait seems very human to me, not like that of a bipedal apelike animal.  I do not believe it is a real bigfoot, if one even exists.
