Bigfoot Drone Video Creators Admit to Hoax

And it wasn't even a good hoax!

Last week, a drone video caught viral attention when it appeared to show Bigfoot running through a field in Idaho. Now, the creators have released a new video that shows the truth: it was all a hoax, and a pretty basic one at that. The original video, entitled, “Possible bigfoot in Idaho!! Flying the drone around and ran across this,” was uploaded to YouTube on June 2, and within days had been featured in dozens of news stories. The clip appeared to show a hairy, bipedal figure booking it across a clearing near the Hawkins Reservoir in Southeast Idaho. So far, the video has been viewed over half a million times.

From Week in Weird.

Well, it looks like the jig is up, because just a few hours ago, the same account posted a follow-up video with the title “What really happened June 2, 2016 Possible bigfoot in Idaho!!” The truth is predicable, and the creator makes no bones about letting us know we all just got suckered.

Here is the reveal. I don't know if anyone thought this was really BigFoot ( there's always someone), but the joke is on them.


Here is the original thread about the original video. Possible Bigfoot on Drone Video.

Agreed, pretty funny and I am still having some belly laughs.

It made me laugh, too. I'm glad everyone can get a bit of joy out of the video.

As a drone owner I really couldn't figure out how he would have managed to see it while he's flying. Really just a dot unless you know where to look.

They suckered a very specific few, not all of us....

Just hyperbole from the article, obviously the wide majority knew this was not BigFoot.

Thanks for finding this, I've updated my thread on the original (hoax) video.
