Totally Dismantling This Famous Bigfoot Video


I like to grade paranormal phenomena with my own personal beliefs expressed as a percentage.  A grade of 100% would indicate that I totally believe in the existence of the phenomena.  There is none to which I currently would grade 100%, but I have a high percentage for alien abductions and Near Death Experiences.  Bigfoot's existence has always been very low on my percentage evaluation -- maybe 10% or less.

The Patterson-Gimlin film would need corroborating evidence for me to believe it is authentic.  We need either a dead sasquatch or a captured one to really prove the existence of bigfoot.  One video from 1967 just doesn't cut it for me.

The above video debunks the Patterson-Gimlin film, and I agree with the author's conclusions.  What do you think?

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.

I APOLOGIZE. Sasquatch Does Exist!

Sasquatch, also known as Big Foot and now SAXquatch, has come out of the woods to assert his relevance and existance and to oppose interspecies bigotry.   His name is not Daryl, as claimed by a commercial advertisement, but he does play a mean sax.
