Bigfoot/Sasquatch Fact or Fiction?
(click to open player in new window)
While reading through some of the many older Bigfoot threads here at ATS and I kept reading over and over again the same tired old arguments as to why
the {Patterson film} in particular and the whole Bigfoot/Sasquatch belief is fake. I had replied on many of those threads with information of my own
and why I thought it was real. I'll be posting many of the arguments that were put forward and will try to answer some of them here in this thread.
I can't prove that it exists, all I can do is provide you with what I've found through my own amateur research.
As always enjoy...
Argument #1
The Patterson footage is obviously fake. It's a guy running around in a monkey suit wearing a old style football helmet with fur glued to
it!
The above image is an animated .gif I made in photoshop. It is an artists rendition overlapping a still from the now infamous Patterson film. It in
itself does not prove a thing. It should however give people a slightly different perspective on how to view the Patterson film. Now that there is
computer photo enhancement software available the idea of a helmet covered in fur does seem less likely IMO.
Argument #2
Look at the bottom of it's foot. When a still image is shown it's obviously a white boot sole. Who has white colored feet?
At first when confronted by this argument I had to admit that it does make a rather compelling point. I like that picture, although it causes an issue
with some over the "Foot Padding" It does show a very powerfully built creature just look at the neck, shoulders and arms. The person wearing a
supposed "Suit" would had to have been a massive body builder to fill it so tightly. They make gorilla suits but nothing along those lines. Regarding
the "White" feet theory, While vacationing at the beach some time ago I noticed something rather odd about humans. We tend to have very pale soles of
our feet. It's walking through light colored sand/dirt barefoot how would one expect it to look?
Argument #3
You folks just ignore the truth even if it's right there in front of you. Now take a deep breath and get over it....IT'S FAKE....THAT BIGFOOT
FILM IS FAKE. Look up the picture yourself!
Simply stating that it's fake seems to be the norm. I say let's look at the film. Why not? The more technology has advanced and used to analyze the
footage the more details it seems come to light.
Look at the way it turns its head like a gorilla not a human. Its chin is set into it's chest and it has to turn its whole upper torso to look back at
Patterson also look at the length of it's forearm they are huge and much longer than a man in an ape suit would IMO.
Argument #4
How did Patterson sneak up and captured film of Bigfoot? Why is the video such a poor quality? It should have captured a better recording then
that crappy footage. He should have used better equipment!
I don't think the equipment has anything to do with it really. Patterson went out on horse back. The horses could have masked their odors and Bigfoot
may have not noticed them approaching. They were not in a loud pick up truck or an ATV which is what many people do these days they drive or ride
motorized vehicles around making a ruckus looking for Bigfoot.
If it is closer to a human than an ape then it thinks more like a man and would be smarter than say a bear or any other wild animal and maybe and this
is of course speculation on my part, It may be able to think and decide to avoid humans.
The verdict was out for me until there was some motion stabilizing software
used. The thing that makes me think this is real is that if they are going to fake a "Bigfoot" why make a fake "Female" Bigfoot. When nobody at the
time could tell from the footage that in fact it's female?
Again Look at the way it turns it's head. Note that it has to turn it's whole upper body because it's head sits low on it's shoulders like an ape with
it's chin in it's chest like a gorilla and not like a man in a ape suit.
Not only that. Look at the forearms in the images they appear to be longer than a normal mans more like an ape and look at the shoulders and forearms
on this one here. Much too long and muscular for a human. I think it's a distant cousin of Gigantopithecus blacki. Look at this thing it's built like
a tank and it's only a female.
Does the Patterson footage show a female Bigfoot?
Could it simply be a distant cousin of Gigantopithecus
still alive and hanging around out there?
Gigantopithecus
Gigantopithecus is an extinct genus of ape that existed from roughly one million years to as recently as three-hundred thousand years ago, in what
is now China, India, and Vietnam, placing Gigantopithecus in the same time frame and geographical location as several hominid species. The fossil
record suggests that the Gigantopithecus blacki species were the largest apes that ever lived, standing up to 3 metres (9.8 ft) and weighing up to 540
kilograms (1,200 lb).
I'm next going to post some Audio recording of supposedly Bigfoot/Sasquatch howls. They are what they are. I'll not vouch for their legitimacy.
However it is another bit of circumstantial evidence IMO.
Enjoy
Finally, in the end there is no real solid proof for the Big/Sasquatch case but hopefully we can get some new arguments instead of the tired old ones.
It makes for a much more interesting discussion when the obvious is removed. I purposely left out images of the plaster casts of giant feet. We have
all seen them and the following videos cover that topic and more.

So in the end what is your verdict?
Is there a possibility of a Bigfoot/Sasquatch running around in the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere in the world?
What do you think?
