Bigfoot video

hello all:

Since there is 113 posted messages on the other bigfoot post, thought maybe we should start a different post for those who might want to know what is going on, but don't want to read through 113 posts (although this has become quite amuzing and if you have the time, read through them).

Here is the jist of the the 113 posts.

April 24th, a ferry operator supposed video taped 2 minutes and 49 seconds of "creature" standing 7-8 feet tall as it wondered along the bank of a river as he was crossing it with the ferry. This happened in the community of Norway House, Manitoba.

Apparently someone has boughten the tape for alot of money. The tape is supposed to be aired tommorrow night on A Current Affair which is a Fox affiliate. It is my understanding that only a channel in MN carrys the show and nobody in ND or SD does.

As far as any other info. Some researchers believe it to be a hoax and others believe it. Guess we will have see.

If you want a good laugh for the day, read through the 113 posts. Some members here have a great sense of humor and I have enjoyed everyones feedback.

Thanks "tsr" for keeping up to date with things and letting us know when and where the tape will be broadcasted.

Walking in the woods/mountains/New Town may have a whole new feeling if this video isn't a hoax.

Dan,
I was browsing the b.f.r.o. website tonight and I found a recent report of a sighting along I-25 just outside of Raton, NM. It happened in January of 2005. Kind of interesting as we were there a couple of years ago for the 4-H certification. Maybe ol Sasquatch was walking around the woods behind our cabin... with a bottle of Bombay gin....... hehehehehehehehehehehehehe ... do you remember Lennie????

He said he was going to stop by his girlfriends to get a little before going home. Maybe it was her????

Back in those hills/mountains whatever....I would believe anything. I bet Ted Turner is raising them with his buffalo!!!

The video was A Current Affair last night. I watched it and the video is very blury, and shot from a long distance. It was looked real, but won't prove anything.

Heaven forbid - BLURRY?!? 


Do you think anyone will ever get a clear photo or video of Nessie, UFOs, Sasquatch or Elvis?  That's what keeps our hopes alive that we are not alone, and the truth is out there! (Insert XFiles theme here).

I was disappointed in the video. I saw the small clip on the website. It struck me strange that the creature walked more like a human than any other footage thats out there. It could be that he's wading thru the water too. The video proves nothing. I did find some more pics of a goonie goo goo on another website. Its www.greatamericanbigfoot.com
It shows a supposed goonie washing itself down with water and then charging the cameraman. This goonie looks like a man dressed in an ape suit. Its kind of funny to see the pics.the only real thing about the pics is that the goonie isn't wearing any underwear and his privates look like they are exposed. Maybe when they made the suit they sewed them in to make it look real.......hehehehehee Anyhow, my belief in the Sasquatch hasn't changed because of the Manitoba video. He's still a mystery. I'd guess I'd have to see the tracks up close and first hand and hear the sound recordings in person to maybe change my mind.... to me he's still a mystery..... until the next Goonie sighting... keep your broadheads sharp and your video camera handy.....

I watched the promo on the a current affair website... the thing that gets me is that unless the guy was using a really, really old camera, or was shooting the film from a really long ways away (and using the digital zoom on his camera) why is the picture so grainy? Just about any $100 camera that was manufactured in the last 10 years or so should have a clearer image than that...

Seen the whole deal last night and the Goofball that took the pic's,does not convince me.You would think after taking the video during the day,watching the creature or whatever wonder off in the woods that they would have gone to the location and looked for tracks along the shoreline.Grainy,Blurry or just wackey someone made a quick $.

I'm out of town and was able to watch the whole program. Yes, with modern technology, even older more primitive technology, why is the quality so bad? Out of focus, grainy, and exposure was bad. Can't conclude anything from it. On one part of the film someone had tried to photo enhance and enlarge it, and it was so bad you could see individual pixels appear. Abolutely no details, even crude ones, could be seen!
A couple of points, though. To me, and I'm not an expert, (who is??) the thing shown was walking upright as a flagpole, no arm swinging, and walking far to slow. According to the anthropologists who study this "thing", the ergonomics would be entirely wrong. According to them, anything this large and bipedal would have to have approximately a 15 degree bend in the lower thoracic/upper lumbar vertebrae, or the center of gravity wouldn't be correct and it would fall over. Also, in order to move, to maintain its center of gravity, it would have to swing its arms and take rather long smooth fluid kind of bouncy steps. The Patterson video, filmed in the mountains of northern California (in ?1967?)has been studied by anthropologists and structural engineers the world over for over 30 years, and most of their conclusions are the same. They believe either a hoaxer got it right (although at the time even the Disney people said they couldn't make anything like that that could traverse the terrain like it could) or it was the real thing. If you believe all these 'experts' this thing is far too straight and upright,(no bend) walks too slowly with little steps, doesn't arm swing, and in short, looks like a man in an ape suit with some sort of extension to make it look taller. Looked too thin to me for its height, too. Very non flud movements, too. Sort of shuffled very slowly along.
In my lowly opinion, another hoax, although another hoax doesn't necessarily make the existence of a Saskwatch any more or less real. I remain an "agnostic" about its existence, neither convinced there is such a thing, or convinced there is not such a thing! I'm still open minded and intrigued!
It will be interesting what the real "experts" say about this film once it gets further analyzed.

I could easily round up a bunch of guys and start an immediate HUNT. SHOOT TO KILL. If I organized for a day I could get hundreds of people.

I found a website that interviewed a California bigfoot "researcher" who saw the video in Bobby Clarke's home. He says the video is blurry, but it is clear enough to site for an expedition of Northern Canada to do more research.

although I didn't see the program. I am with the rest of you. Any current or even 10 year old camera would take a better quality footage than what we see in the video. Did Bobby Clarke lick the lens before filming or what???

I can safely say I am rather dissappointed in the quality of the video.

Here's an update,last night on current affair the same guy that took the blury,grainy video was back at it.This time they went to the spot where the beast was last seen,took pictures of the prints, measured them(20"s long) show'ed pic's of a couple 4" tree's that where snapped off as the beast was exiting the area.

Now,the Nat'l Geographic is coming to research the area,we'll see what's next.

Thanks for the update.... I was wondering if there were any footprints. The 'blobsquatch' video' doesn't really prove anything but footprints definately raise some eyebrows. I was watching a documentary on television yesterday about 'ol Sasquatchee and a fingerprint specialist had examined footprints and he said they were real and made by an unknown creature because of the 'dermal' ridges found on the footprints. Primates and humans have unique features on their feet and these prints were neither primate or human but unique in respect that the dermal ridges run lengthwise along the foot. He looked at prints that were cast from areas that were 700 miles apart and taken 20-25 years apart and they were identical. He stated that it would almost be impossble to 'hoax' this type of evidence. Well, we'll just have to wait and see........
