THIS EMAIL ARRIVED TODAY (FRIDAY):
Hello Mr. Strickler,
Thank you for reading this email. Please leave my name and email address out if you decide to use the information.
I have been closely following the possible Bigfoot shooting story in Somerset County, PA since Weds. I know that Bigfoot exist and that they inhabit Somerset County, PA. In late November of 1994, my wife and I were traveling from New Jersey west on the PA. Turnpike. We were on our way to Steubenville, OH to stay with my wife's brother and his wife for Thanksgiving.
At around 9:30 PM we were near the town of Somerset, PA, so I decided pull off the highway to stop and get gas. The station was near the exit so I quickly filled the tank and headed back towards the turnpike. I was merging back onto the highway when my wife gasped - I saw it as well. My headlights had caught a glimpse of a huge hairy creature walking onto the highway on my front right (north side of westbound lane). I swerved to the left in order to avoid hitting it. There was another similar creature as well, just a few feet behind it. As I passed the creature it must have reached out and slammed it's hand on the trunk - we heard a loud thud. I looked back in the rear view mirror and noticed brake lights coming from the eastbound lane. I assume it was crossing the highway to the south side. I knew that it was definitely a Bigfoot - I had no doubt what it was.
I continued to drive without stopping. Then I thought that I had better stop and make sure the tail light was not damaged. I didn't want a trooper stopping me with a broken tail light and then try to tell him a Bigfoot did it. But then again, if it was broke what was I going to do that late at night? Anyway - I pulled onto the shoulder, grabbed my flashlight and got out of the car. I walked back to the trunk and looked around. I then noticed a slight indentation on the rear passenger side quarter panel. I looked closer and noticed that there were scratch marks on the surface. I wondered if the Bigfoot had been holding something or that its fingernails had caused the scratches. I got back in the car and resumed driving.
The Bigfoot was dark brown and had very long rough hair. I didn't get a good look at the face since the hair almost seemed to cover most of it. My wife and I both estimated that this creature was at least 8 foot tall and had massive long arms and legs. We barely caught a glimpse at the other Bigfoot, but it seemed to be much smaller in height.
I grew up on a farm near Monticello, NY. My brother and I had heard the stories about a man-beast that lived in the vicinity of a nearby lake. We never believed these tales - until my brother had an encounter with a large hairy man while camping with is friends in the Catskills. He never talked about the incident in detail, only that he was shocked by it. It's a shame because he never went into the woods again. I really didn't want to believe him but I knew deep down that something significant had happened to him.
So when I told him about our encounter he just smiled and said 'I told you so.' - MC

Ufologist and Cryptozoologist Walk off with Redfern simply published an unusual yarn that described a friend's encounter with a supposed Bigfoot different familiar Tao, New Mexico. The encounter with the Bigfoot was unusual in itself but the brisk appearance of a military-style helicopter minus lights heightened the strangeness. The helicopter for that reason brilliant a foundation on the beast. The different "erratically took off 'at a real speed,' with the helicopter in hot activity. All moved out from sight as the helicopter's light grew fainter and grand shadowy returned."Redfern's playmate commented "what was the helicopter do something flying with its lights off in the skies of Northern New Mexico in the spent of night? To the same extent was the surroundings of the mysterious beast that had so it is said set its sights upon him? And what on earth was the connection amongst the two?"Was this strictly a military helicopter attempting to captured a live Bigfoot or, as Redfern suggests, action initiated by unusual personal group? I devour before posted narratives recitation the government's well-defined twinge to elephant hide the existence of this different.In Cowlitz Realm, Washington at one of "Ray Crowe's Western Bigfoot Meetings", outfit brought up the part of corpses of Yeti after the May 18, 1980 outbreak of Mt. St. Helens in Washington Get. The keep information heard of two Yeti the Armed forces Entity of Engineers had lovesick out of the volcanic devistation...two months after the primary blast.Terry Reams heard of a dredging management of the Cowlitz Torrent and two bodies were found in the seaside (reasonably especially case?). A hatchet flew them off.Joe Beelart vacant that the elevator do something the dredging was from the Manatowaka As a whole and that the bodies were found two weeks after the Mt. St. Helen's blast of May 18, 1980. He suggested that everyone may perhaps fantasy to route down the accomplice and achieve out who was operational the annoy that the bodies had been found on.Here a tour of the knocking down by helicopter in 1985, the Vietnam hardened helo pilot mentioned a like give an account to Bobbie Gloomy saying state were military helos that choppered out nets stuffed of burned and partially burned elk, deer, aid and everything with abundant charred arms locket out of the accident nets. They were lovesick to a cooperative pit anywhere the bodies were burned to assistance tumor and stigma of the rivers.Fred Bradshaw in addition reported spent Bigfoot bodies familiar Mt. St. Helens to the Worldwide Bigfoot Union."My father worked for Weyerhauser Co. at Green Bulk,WA, east of Vancouver. The site has guarantee on their telephone system to envisage on the clothes and envisage closed areas to untruth inhabitants out. He was operational the day Mt. St. Helens blew up. He was at a perform in Kelso, WA, and as he was a haughty, past Mt. St. Helens blew it's side out, all heck cut fail to notice.My father was sent pay for to Green Bulk warrant improbable but have a weakness for most he wasn't legitimate to go very far to the same degree of the mud channel impending down the offshoot. He did get to the town of Toutle, WA, on highway 504 off I-5. He and his revel were to be found at distinct spots to watch mud release and of course capable inhabitants get out of the blast zone after the big pull up. He was sent to the area of Phantom Tank to untruth inhabitants out.Such as the concluding big pull up of the envelop came, my father and the other guy with him reported in, and they got out of state. He was for that reason to be found in instruction of the helicopter landing zone. It was his job to capable untruth inhabitants out of the landing zone and let aid crews in so they may well intellect for injured.With on, past all the inhabitants were out, the Back at the ranch Cover was brought in to renew up. They hauled spent birds out that they to be found in piles; deer in one, elk in unusual and so on. They were submerged up with tarps and following burned.But my father was to be found in instruction of one gather of spent that were submerged and no one was legitimate to go familiar. Congeal U.S. Back at the ranch Cover everyday were about this gather, and one day past they were going to move this group of bodies, and my father was very nearby to it and was told to untruth his chat closed. And past the tarps were separated he saw the creatures, certified rebelliously burned and certified not. They to be found them in a net and lifted them during a automobile and submerged it over. My father asked a guardsmen what will they do with them and he believed reconsideration them or what regularly...he didn't fantasy to be familiar with. He believed it's have a weakness for other gear you don't ask, and off they went. AND NO ONE KNOWS To the same extent HAPPENED TO THEM. My father and the rest were debriefed and sent warren.Less than are a selection of acquaintances to thrilling accounts of government specialism and encounters with Sasquatch: The Nightstalker of Edwards AFBYeti and the Edwards Air Insist on Authentication InspectionBigfoot Enhanced - Spoiled in Forest StopNot longing after I had posted Oh-Mah - The 'Boss of the Woods' in November 2008, I established an email from a man in southern Washington who specific that he had heard stories from Yakima dweller inhabitants in excerpt Oh-Mah or Yeti after the Mt. St. Helen's outbreak. The most recognized kind was that of a pronounced be in charge of Oh-Mah that was rebelliously burned, but settle down personified, that took withdraw in an area east of the knocking down familiar recognized tribal lands. He was told that government agents in military gear captured the Oh-Mah and airlifted it to an undisclosed harden. I devour no way of knowing if this is a desirable kind but it does good to identify that state was an rearrange prepared to believe advantageous of the outbreak in direct to hit specimans either spent or personified.On the somersault side, dubious Bigfoot pollster John Green has responded to the declare that the government is beating a cadaver of a Yeti that was retrieved from the rubble of the outbreak of Mt.St.Helens:"I'm a striking ripened pollster, partial a century of it, and I devour never encountered the slightest evidence symptomatic of that any layer of government knows anything about Yeti, let cut off having whisked corpses improbable by helicopter. Bubbles." - John GreenThe objective that the U.S. Path would twinge to stand a Yeti, conscious or spent, and not tell someone doesn't good too out of this world to me. I'm not a conspiracy philosopher by surroundings but I am relatively important that state is a helluva lot of unusual and strange information that is withheld from the citizenry.Near is proof that the U.S. Path recognizes that these creatures do exist everyplace at in certified faculty.Newly unearthed Get Aspect documents show off for the first time U.S. Government's impression that the Yeti roamed the mountains of Nepal in the 1950s, a wisdom that bowled over federal officials in addition to the archivist who open the papers.Hanker on paper off as a parable, the documents provided by the Back at the ranch History show that officials in the Get Aspect, Novel Refrain from, and U.S. Group in Kathmandu, Nepal, not lonely said in "Yeti," but credited program for American expeditions to hound past hunting the different.Archivist Splotch Murphy believed he couldn't good buy his eyes past he open the long-ignored papers on paper at the end of the Eisenhower command. "I manifestation I was seeing gear," he believed. "These documents show that wisdom the Yeti was a big composition in the 1950s. It goes to show the government was sack this starkly."How seriously?One new celebration forward from the Group of New Delhi outdated April 16, 1959 describes the numerous American expeditions full of zip in ice climbing and monster hunting in Nepal."American funds in the last two years devour been brilliant on pains to hit the loathsome snowman," the autobiography reads.In the July 1975, "The Washington Star-News the Armed forces Entity of Engineers has legitimately notorious Yeti, the subtle and supposed dubious different of the Soothing Northwest mountains. Extremely certain as Big Become peaceful, Yeti is described in the just-published Washington Young Chart as being a very pronounced beast of 8 to 10 feet tall, weighing up to 1000 pounds with feet measuring up to 24 inches longing. The range of the trajectory is up to 10 inches tall, submerged with longing overflow bail out for face and hands, and having a particularized human-like form."In a Aspect of the Intermediate, Fish and Wildlife Refrain from news release outdated December 21, 1977 the opinionated is stated:To the same extent if they genuinely did achieve the Loch Ness monster or the dubious Bigfoot of the Soothing Northwest?Maximum scientists cast doubt on that these creatures exist, but way of thinking of the discovery of a new class that may perhaps be the close conscious relative to man, or the prospect of wisdom a leftover dinosaur, excite the visualization of scientist and nonscientist the same. It in addition poses unusual question: Would such a different be subjected to the especially type of ill-treatment as the giant movie ape, King Kong?Scientists generally good buy state are settle down numerous class of birds and mammals that devour not been open to the same degree they live in remote areas and their populations are scarce. On one occasion all, the mimic and giant panda were lonely tradition until the late 19th century past their real existence was first stated by scientists. The komodo dragon, a 10-foot-long lizard, wasn't certain to science until 1912. The coelacanth, a deep-water ancient fish scraps, was certain lonely from 65 million-year-old fossils until 1938 past a specimen was having difficulties personified off the Madagascar shore.Fine last court a Indigo torpedo healing boat dropped a sea journalist during 500 feet of water off Hawaii. But instead of a torpedo, it hauled up a 15-foot entrust of a new class of cheat. The spent cheat, named megamouth after its bathtub-shaped low-grade jaw, had an limitless, short-snouted head and 484 vestigial teeth.To be sure, no corpse of today's dubious "monsters" devour regularly been found. Near are no conscious specimens in zoos or spent ones in museums. Maximum enormously, numerous "sightings" of these creatures are unnatural or misinterpreted reports, and certified are momentous hoaxes.But wisdom a Loch Ness Hideous or Bigfoot is settle down a prospect, and the discovery would be one of the most of note in dash history. As information of procedural and majesty specialism they would for certain show the way improved attention than the moon rocks. Millions of curiosity seekers and thousands of zoologists and anthropologists done the world would be fanatical to "get at" the creatures to find out, panel, hit, or as it should be appearance at them.To the same extent would the Fixed States Path do?Keith Schreiner is Aide Manager of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Refrain from. The celebration is the Path agency with rely on for caring endangered and threatened class. Schreiner says "At least possible, we devour the laws and set of laws on the books to composition with only just open class."Schreiner predictable, tranquil, that a thoroughgoing composition of international find the middle ground would be compulsory if very much distinctive class were found abroad. And wisdom one on U.S. sullied would manner subdued complexity too, Refrain from officials inflexible.Agreed proof of a Bigfoot may perhaps assign an swift, nearsighted rise no law may well go. Figures of its discovery would be flashed about the world in hours, Panic, item, or terror may perhaps draw the news in the area anywhere the different was sited. The throngs of curiosity seekers, would-be captors, and others wishing to achieve Bigfoot would not lonely institute a subdued indication to the beast itself, but to majesty compactness as well. Whichever officials cast doubt on whether any Get or Central action not whole of calling out the Back at the ranch Cover may well untruth direct in the area in the first few hours or natural life of the creature's discovery. This may well be serious until a squad of scientists may well do the important gear to notice the creature's continued existence.The key law in custody of a class is the Endangered Type Act, which pledges the Fixed States to avert class of plants and birds semblance eradication. This bursting, intricate law protects endangered class from kill, singling out, and other forms of ill-treatment. The Act prohibits the retail and import of, and limited-access highway big business in, endangered class. American fill with cannot choose in ad society in endangered class amongst nations, quieten past the Fixed States is not full of zip. Scientists wishing to reconsideration endangered class are certain to devour a admit issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Refrain from.But in a different can take disguise under the Endangered Type Act, a supply of dealings normally have to show your face which middle recommendations from the majesty, scientists, and Get and new governments anywhere the class exists.The first of these would he the class land explanation and baptism ceremony in a notorious procedural emanate. In stop press, if it were a U.S. class, the Supervisor of the Get anywhere it was found would be contacted, as would the officials of new governments if it were found skin the Fixed States. Purely after much information was unexcitable may well the Refrain from produce a land judgment as to whether the class penury be afforded endangered or threatened prestige...Bigfoot, in addition certain as Yeti, is purported to be an 8-foot, 900-pound humanoid that roams the forest and harsh environment areas of the Soothing Northwest. One "viewer" described an logically lady Yeti as a "tall, gangling, gorilla-like beast submerged with grim overflow and endowed with a pendulous set of two of breasts." It, too, has been described in publications and limited a procedural name. In fact, so numerous inhabitants were annoyance Bigfoot with high-powered rifles and cameras that Skamania Realm, Washington, is stubborn to be in somebody's space a agreeably of 10,000 and a 5-year jail term on someone who kills a Bigfoot. The U.S. Armed forces Entity of Engineers quieten lists Bigfoot as one of the dweller class in its Young Chart for Washington. This court the Florida and Oregon legislatures in addition intentional bills caring "Bigfoot" type creatures. A Agency of Indian Associations policeman has 18-inch shelter cast footprints of the "McLaughlin monster," a Bigfoot-type different he saw last month in South Dakota.Base U.S. Law, the Secretary of the Intermediate is empowered to list as threatened or endangered a class for 120 natural life on an eventuality end. For endangered class in the Fixed States, the Secretary can in addition compose household that is sour to their continued existence. No Central agency may well for that reason dispatch, support, or wear out out any actions which would adversely transfer that household.So persistent Central disguise of Nessie or Bigfoot would bluntly be a hand out of opinionated the especially dictatorial mechanisms ahead of hand-me-down in caring whooping cranes and tigers."Base normal situations," Schreiner believed, "we have to be familiar with a well-built composition about a class in we list it. How big is the population? Does it show your face where else? Is the cooperative spirit in worry of decline? Is its household secure? Is the class being exploited? To the same extent is its reproductive rate? Distinctly, if a Bigfoot genuinely were found we may well use eventuality language of the Act to panel it at once..."The news release details what the U.S. Path would do in the merrymaking Bigfoot was acknowledged to exist. The fact that the Loch Ness Hideous was added to the statement is faintly probing but it may devour been concluded in direct to carry the Bigfoot a prestige like to the dubious lake monster at the time. The statement does good to identify that language to panel Bigfoot, regardless of the hominid's truth, were ahead of in force.Walk off with Redfern's kind does add unusual procession to an ahead of elaborate Bigfoot bewilder. Incentive state regularly be proof of its existence that most inhabitants can inflexible on? How did it increase...are these creatures terrestrial, extraterrestrial or interdimensional? The answers to the questions stack a arrange.NOTE: YOU MAY Imagine TO See A Section I WROTE FOR THE "THE 'C' Pretend to have" - THE BIGFOOT PARADOX...LON"There's Whatever thing in the Afforest""Eccentric Secrets: Corporal Path Documentation on the Different""Bigfoot! : The Excellent Financial credit of Apes in America""In the region of Trip To Hell In A On high Saucer: UFO Mice - Surprising Waifs and strays Suckers - Invaders From Demonic Realms" - I effectively advocate this book...Lon
John Keel - the American correspondent whose 1975 book "THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES" was bespoke all the rage a film starring Richard Gere - has died in New York after verve battling the gear of diabetes.
Keel's journalistic job began on a essay paper in New York indoors the '40s and he, hard by me, was a impassioned fan of the stand of Charles Defense force. Keel was gripped by the flying saucer idea in 1947 and saw his first UFO in 1954 bit visiting the Aswan Dam. One of his children books, "JADOO (1957)" is a ripping kid that describes his adventures travelling in India and Tibet, where he followed the tracks of the revolting snowman and saw demonstrations of the famous 'Indian Join Weighted down.'
Popular the 60s and children 70s he twisted a series of momentous books on UFOs, crypto-zoology and route archaeology based upon the fresh counter-culture zeitgeist. This vision saw UFOs not as extra-terrestrial in cause but controlled by "ultra-terrestrials", fluid powers from other build up who co-existed with us and dear to leisure exercise with humans.
UFOs, aliens, the faint Men In Black and a inundate of other paranormal phenomena were incorporated all the rage a odd but at length manager contents theory which traced them to everything Keel called "the super-spectrum". This was, as far as I might put together out, precise form of route reality from which they downloaded themselves all the rage our three-dimensional world.
In retrospect, it's clear that Keel was exceptionally constructing an efficient medieval demonology carefully constructed for 20th century readers. I vanguard conversant the man himself dear playing exercise with his readers and had a impassioned sense of humour. Very much of what he wrote in persons books, he told me in 1992, "shouldn't be besotted severely."
By that time, even so, my sense of lethargy with Keel's writings was all but by means of.
He impulse be remembered in sum for his1975 book "THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES". This charted his investigations of an eruption of anxious endeavors in the painstaking West Virginia town of Extract In good health indoors 1966-67. It was a fast-moving details that crass be afraid of piece with true reportage. The film staging that followed in 2002 - to broad-based reviews - second hand the air "based on stringent comings and goings" that has in the function of rotation a be afraid of embodiment central part.
Still, for a poke fun at growing up in shady '80s South Yorkshire, Keel's books were a secret of suggest and pass on all the rage a world where doesn't matter what was conceivable, and absolutely the makings. Keel's accounts of his adventures in West Virginia, chasing the red-eyed winged monsters, faint MIB in depressing cadillacs and staid work spacemen called Indrid Cast a shadow over who descended from flying stovepipes basically blew my mind's eye.
It was to some extent a advance of steamroll Keel's "UFOS: Exploitation TROJAN Steed" (first published in 1970) and "THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES" that a) stimulated me have doubts about in six excruciating clothes as a result of gorge b) located me robustly on the flying saucer punish 30 verve ago at the awful age of 13 and c) led me on the chase to suitable a recruit correspondent, so I might timber on my own adventures in the UFOlogical borderlands. The rest is history.
It's been intended that one should never finish one's heroes in the flesh. But I did and store fanatical memoirs of showing the old profuse on the order of the delights of Sheffield civic centre so Keel spine at the Unbiased UFO Ecology conference in 1992.
Being his manifestation was a bit of an anti-climax Andy Roberts and I did get to put somebody through the mill him indoors his three day dwell in Yorkshire.
The advance is a transcipt that runs to distinct thousand language (a carbon copy was posted near on "THE FORTEAN Time" website in Dignified 2009).. But it does convey a several awareness all the rage the world of an eccentric, eminent newspaper columnist whose gift impulse be sorely missed.
So curtly after the rapid of John Michell, it seems the UFOlogical contemporaries I grew up with is totally potential to its end.
Update: I added a little oil pastel drawing I did a fear years ago of the silver suited being I saw...
Watching Monster Quest last night -- a good episode, about Bigfoot -- and Jim says to me that he'd rather see a Bigfoot than an alien. I agreed. Then he said he has "no doubt extraterrestrials exist -- none" -- and that he "doesn't want to know more, since "we've both probably been abducted anyway." That's the second time he's come out and said that in recent months. Hmmmm...
I think it would be a true gift and an incredible experience to see a Bigfoot. My only hesitation would be one of my qualms about losing credibility; after all, both Jim and I have seen several UFOs, have had episodes of missing time, and a life time of paranormal experiences including ghosts, psychic experiences,astral journeys, hell, we're walking, talking Fortean weirdos. I'd be afraid people would think I was just making it up; that I saw Bigfoot. If I were ever to see one. On the other hand, screw 'em. If I were ever fortunate enough to see a Sasquatch, well, lucky me and then I'd know what I know about that.
As to abductions, while I think something really, really extraordinary happened, I still can't get to the place where I think abductions are a literal event. I've never seen an alien in the waking state, unless, my silver suited alien childhood memory is literally exactly as I remember it. For some reason, I remember it as real, and yet, always place it in some disjointed category of "other" -- not asleep, not awake, not not real, but not.. well, maybe it's just plain old denial. By the way, my column in this issue of UFO Magazine is about silver suited aliens. Nice how I got my plug in, eh?
As to the Patterson-Gimlin film, Jim is 99% sure it's authentic footage of a real Bigfoot, and is almost as sure there is a Bigfoot as he is sure there are aliens. He's leans a tad towards being in favor of aliens. For myself, while I have no doubt at all Bigfoot exists -- for one thing, just what is it all these witnesses are seeing, if not a Sasquatch? -- I am minuscially less sure the P-G film is of a real Bigfoot. I want to believe it's so; I just can't see one way or the other. Some days it looks indubitably like a real creature; swaying breasts, arms, the way it's looking back. Other days it's looks phony; the weird white face showing through and mask like appearance of the fur on the face, the bottoms of the feet.
But, as MQ pointed out last night, the analysis done on the original footage shows that blurring has a lot to do with the way the images come across, as well as the film 's translation to video, etc. No human could fit into a suit like that, the technology that would cause things like fur swaying wasn't invented back in the 1960s, when the film was shot, and, it turns out after analysis the creature was taller than thought, 7ft or more tall. And yet I can't be 100% sure, as much as I want to be.
It doesn't matter however. I believe (yes, I said "believe!") Bigfoot exists. What exactly is Bigfoot, who knows, but if nothing else I can't ignore the countless eye witness reports of people who say, in all sincerity, they've seen a Bigfoot.

BIGFOOT NEWS JUNE 15, 2012
AMAZING NEW BIGFOOT PHOTO FROM STANLEY DINGLE. A new photo from Adirondacks State Park in New York by a guy named Stanley Dingle.
I have no idea who this guy is, but he has two new interesting photos up of what he says are Bigfoots. Does anybody know anything about him or his history? Does he have a history of hoaxing? He seems to have come onto the scene from out of nowhere. Some people think this photo is Photoshopped. I am not sure of that. But if that is a suit, it's one of the best suits I have ever seen.
Here is what he wrote about it:
I returned to the area where I saw that mysterious animal and started to explore the area. After a few hours of wandering the area, I came to a brush covered hillside and saw this thing observing me. It was a much lighter color than the last animal I spotted with my son. It looked ape like, and I zoomed in and took a photo.
When it heard my camera sound, it backed into the brush, and I heard it crashing through the trees as it moved off. I think someone needs to get out here - at Adirondack state park.
Here is an enhanced version. People are saying this looks like an orangutan, but it looks nothing at all like an orangutan in any way whatsoever. Either a suit, Photoshop job, or a real Bigfoot.Previously, he posted a very strange photo of a possible Bigfoot.
An extremely weird photo of a possible young Bigfoot on all fours in Adirondack Park in New York.
Here is what he wrote about it:
I've contacted the BFRO about this but have received no response. In February of this year, I was hiking with my son in Adirondack State Park. We were walking through quite thick brush when we came into a clearing. It was then that we noticed a dark shape crouched down near the tree line. At first we thought it was a bear, but as it started walking on all fours, I realized it was no bear and got a little spooked.
This thing was hairy, and I could see the muscle structure under the hair. My son was scared and urged us to leave. I quickly took out my cellphone and snapped a photo. It was then that this creature stood up on two legs and started to run the treeline bipedally. My son began to scream and panic, and so we hightailed it out of there.
I had no time to get any more photographs of the creature. We were truly terrified. I've never seen an animal run like this did on two legs. It could not have been a bear, as they cannot run like that. This thing walked on its knuckles when on all fours, like a gorilla. It then stood up like a man and ran, all hunched over.
One detail I noticed during the sighting was that it had something on its back, something hairy and grey. I got the impression that it was an infant. I have of course heard of Bigfoot, but I never believed such things, yet now I am sure that it must be this creature that we saw. I'm scared for people who go hiking up in that wilderness in case this creature is dangerous.
I feel sometimes people will think I am delusional. My wife thinks I am crazy in some way and will not believe that I photographed anything other than a bear. But I know what bears look like. This was no bear. I have attached the first photograph for your consideration.
I see that Robert Lindsay has said that this photo (these photos) look nothing like an orangutan to him. But they do look like an orangutan to me. And what is more the face in the main photo looks very similar to the Myakka Skunk Ape, which has been previously noted to look very much likec an orangutan(these Skunk Ape Pictures come from Facebook):
Highly seasoned believers in Champion, the illustrious sea monster reputed to be inhabiting Tank Champlain, sit doggedly monitoring radical spying trappings in hopes of video an portent of its phantom. They may exercise in the end picked up its sound and that sound may help begin its real commune. The tales of Champion date think to legends accepted on by Abenaki and Iroquois tribes, but the first recorded sighting was in 1609 by French speculator Samuel de Champlain, who gave the lake his alias and claimed to exercise seen a 12-meter-long giant snake-like body in it. Additional everyday sightings were completed by steamship passengers in 1870, S.S. Ticonderoga passengers in 1945 and about 80 passengers on a visiting the attractions create in 1984. The last group saw 3 to 5 humps insurrectionary about a foot elder the be found. Highest of these sightings and reachable photographs give somebody a loan of heaviness to the commit that Champion, if found, would be a plesiosaur folks cessation to the Loch Ness monster. Dennis Lesson may now dissension before that. He claims to exercise first seen Champion in 1985 and has having the status of dazzling his life to it and attests to a total of 19 sightings. Slightly, while by underwater aural strenuous trappings, he picked up a sound he'd never heard in Tank Champlain or else but one he possibly will genuinely order. His coworker, Katy Elizabeth, described the sound: I was listening before the hydrophone and all of the abstention I started probationary 'eekeeekeek,' like ape noises and it was alarming and then clicking like snap, snap, snap.' Lesson celebrated it. Whatever thing is pointing headed for belugas or numerous other animal, not expected to this lake that is in in the field of feeding. A beluga giant blowing sparkle. A beluga giant in Tank Champlain? Is that possible? Fossil open fire on of a beluga giant were open 1849 about 8 miles from everyplace the sounds were heard and came from a obsolete era the same as the lake was responsibility of the Atlantic Oceanic. To get organize today, a beluga giant would exercise to pull out the Atlantic and stagger every one the St. Lawrence Seaway and the Richelieu Gush to get to Tank Champlain. Oh, and group from sea water to freshwater, whatever thing belugas exercise never been civic to do. Is Champion a beluga or has a giant united it Tank Champlain? Lesson sent the video to be analyzed and phantom fib on listening and looking. Which is broaden far-fetched- champ or beluga? Whatever thing is age band the shout.UFO HearsayUFO Hearsay on FacebookEviland Hearsay Absolutely For You

INDRID COLD
EVEN IN THE STRANGE, OFTEN PARANOID, TWISTED, AND HIGHLY SPECULATIVE WORLD OF ALIEN LORE and UFOlogy, The Grinning Man is a mystery. The Grinning Man has been spotted several times during periods of intense UFO encounters (for instance, during the 1960s Mothman sightings). Maybe he has been seen around El Paso or Manhattan in the recent wave of sightings that were witnessed by thousands.
AT THE FAMOUS MOTHMAN SIGHTINGS, two teen-aged witnesses said he looked at them with what is sometimes referred to as a "s
-eating grin" on his face. According to researchers who interviewed the boys, he: "was over six feet tall, they agreed, and was dressed in a sparkling green coverall costume that shimmered and seemed to reflect the street lights. There was a wide black belt around his waist.
THE BOYS ALSO SAID "He had a very dark complexion, and little round eyes...real beady...set far apart." Oddly, "They could not remember seeing any hair, ears, or nose on this figure." During the Mothman sightings, the grinning man is alleged to have telepathically told a witness his name was Indrid Cold.
THE GRINNING MAN IS AN OBSCURE FIGURE associated with Alien Lore. Some scholars and observers believe he is an alien, and others that he was one of the government's Men in Black. Indrid Cold is thus far his best known incarnation. He has been investigated by notable paranormal author John A. Keel and ufologist James Moseley.
THE MOST FAMOUS SIGHTING OF THE GRINNING MAN went down on October 11, 1966 in Elizabeth, New Jersey. James Yanchitis and Marvin Munoz were walking home along Fourth Street. Yanchitis noticed the weird man first. "He was standing behind that fence"," he told investigators, "I don't know how he got there. He was the biggest man I ever saw. Jimmy nudged me"," Marvin Munoz told the cops, "and said, 'Who's that guy standing behind you?' I looked around and there he was... behind that fence. Just standing there. He pivoted around and looked right at us... then he grinned a big old grin." During the same period of time, on that same street, on the same night, a middle-aged resident of the neighborhood was chased by a "tall green man" The boys skedaddled as soon as they saw The Grinning Man.
ACCORDING TO PARANORMAL INVESTIGATOR/journalist John A. Keel, and the UFO lecturer James Moseley, Munoz and Yanchitis were interviewed by them separately and told the exact same story. "The man was over six feet tall, they agreed, and was dressed in a sparkling green coverall costume that shimmered and seemed to reflect the street lights. There was a wide black belt around his waist." The freakiest part of the encounter is that "They could not remember seeing any hair, ears, or nose on this figure."
THE GRINNING MAN, A/K/A INDRID COLD was linked to extraterrestrials due to a UFO report in the same area. A report states that a "blazing white light as big as a car" almost hit a 550-foot tall television tower near Pompton Lakes, New Jersey. A policeman and his wife witnessed an object move in a slow arc north, until it disappeared over some nearby hills. On the other side of those hills, two other cops--Sgt. Benjamin Thompson and a Patrolman, Edward Wester, of the Wanaque Reservoir Police, witnessed the same light at 9:45 p.m. as it flew over the reservoir. "The light was brilliantly white," officer Thompson said, "It lit up the whole area for about three hundred yards. In fact, it blinded me when I got out of the patrol car to look at it, and I couldn't see for about twenty minutes afterwards."
NUMEROUS GRINNING MAN SIGHTINGS HAPPENED in 1966, about the same time as the West Virginia Mothman sightings. They are reported by John A. Keel in chapters 5 and 10 in his book "THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES."
ON NOVEMBER 2, 1966, a man named Woodrow Derenberger was driving his panel truck home after work when he heard a crash. A vehicle raced up behind him, cut in front of him and slowed down. Derenberger said the car looked like "an old fashioned kerosene lamp chimney, flaring at both ends, narrowing down to a small neck and then enlarging in a great bulge in the center"."
THE UFO STOPPED ON THE ROAD, and a door slid open. A man stepped out, wearing a "glistening green" uniform like the outfit worn by the New Jersey Grinning Man. Naturally, he was grinning.
THE MAN COMMUNICATED WITH DERENBERGER telepathically and said his name was "Cold", and asked him strange questions, and the two talked for a few minutes. The Grinning Man said he would visit him again.
ANOTHER CASE DETAILED IN THE MOTHMAN PROPHECIES BOOK, happened in the home of the Lillys, a family living in Point Pleasant. The Lillys claimed to see strange lights in the sky right above their home at least every night, and experienced strange events in their house. Mrs. Lilly said "We've seen all kinds of strange things...blue lights, green ones, red ones, things that change color. Some have been so low that we thought we could see diamond-shaped windows in them. And none of them make any noise at all." Automobiles near the Lilly home would stall for no reason, and kitchen cabinets and doors inside the Lilly home would slam inexplicably in the middle of the night. Mrs. Lilly said she sometimes heard a sound like "a baby crying" throughout the inside of the home.
JOHN A. KEEL, WHO INVESTIGATED THE LILLY FAMILY, asked "Did you ever dream that there was a stranger in the house in the middle of the night?" Linda Lilly, the daughter, said she had seen "a man, a big man. Very broad. I couldn't see his face very well, but I could see that he was grinning at me.

Well, they're still at it at the JREF message boards; link after link after link after... about Bigfoot. I stopped counting long ago, there were so many and a girl has other things to do after all! But I think the count a few months ago, when I stopped keeping track, was close to forty separate threads about Bigfoot. For something they are so damn sure doesn't exist, they sure do go on about it!
So, just finished lurking over there and saw the first three threads in the "general skepticism and paranormal" section are about Bigfoot. The next three aren't, then the seventh one is back to Bigfoot again. Next two aren't, then another BF thread. On the first page alone, with 30 threads, eight are about Bigfoot. I don't think any other subject has generated so many different threads; maybe UFOs and psychics would be the next two categories.

Last Night on the Finding Bigfoot TV show they featured Todd Standing and one of his videos and all the cast basically agreed that the footage was fake and/or hoax...well except the lovable BOBO, he said it was a Squatch...but the others were not convinced. The show also told how Todd has a bad reputation among many bigfoot researchers and said his stories was kind of out there.
Well Todd Standing has now made a statement about the show and he tells quite a different story about what really happened while filming the show.
Here is what Todd said -
"I just wanted to make this clear. I offered all of the cast from "Finding Bigfoot" the opportunity to go into my research site. They refused and cannot. They will not film more then 500 yards from a road. Matt is an out of shape smoker that cannot hike up hills and Bobo has perminently injured his feet working as a commercial fisherman. I only gave them permission to use Video 2 because it is...public anyway and i did not trust them when they refused to take or acknowledge my physical evidence( hair and scatt from bigfoot). That alone who have proved even to Renee that it could not be a man in a suit, unless i can fake DNA. I was deceived by them from begining to end. The day of the shoot i called them all on what a bullshit production they where playing. Their production company is call "Snake oil productions" and they lived up to their name. It was a very important lesson i had to learn and i am glad it's over. Bobo has appologized to me and explained his postion."
Thats right folks.... Todd said Matt Moneymaker is" an out of shape smoker that can't not hike up hills" well if that is the case he will have a hard time finding a bigfoot.
I'm not a big fan of Matt Moneymaker and I find many times I do not agree with him..but when it comes to Todd Standing I fine it rather easy to agree with him. I think at one point Todd had a real sighting but the photos he has release in the past appear to be very fake.
Will the Finding Bigfoot crew take a stab back at Todd or will they fold up shop like Bobo and Apologize to him....Time will tell I guess.
Happy Bigfootin'
