Dont you find it incredibly strange though, that considering this footage is decades old, it is STILL hotly debated, and scrutinized so closely...and yet its still about 50/50 whether people believe its real or not?!!!!


Ive brought this up before...if P&G were able to create such an incredible hoax then...why has no one done a better hoax since? One that can stand up to such scrutiny over the years? Compared to those days when the footage was taken, there are 10s of 1000s of 'Bigfoot enthusiasts' and investigators out there today...they are all trying to get that one good picture or video that will make them famous....and Patterson Gimlin is the most recent 'hoax film'? LOL Cmon, what are the chances of that, especially when you consider how great digital and CGI technology is today?! Are we really suggesting that such a good hoax cannot be done today, and Patterson Gimilin was the most recent video of this 'caliber'? Really? LOL

Here ya go. In this video, Thinker Thunker is merely asking 'Where is the Patterson-Gimlin gorilla suit? Take a look at his logic here, it's really interesting. He won't find it because what you all see in the Patterson-Gimlin video is a real BigFoot. And, there's many people that believe that Patti and her family were shot and skinned that afternoon and early evening of October 20, 1967.

So is the 1947 Roswell incident - that doesn't make the claims that it was an alien craft crash true.

I have to admit - the enhanced image of Patty's face still looks pretty damned convincing.

Presumably they skinned them for fame/money/whatever ... so what happened to the skins?

Good question. I don't know where the skins went. Or if the Sasquatches were even shot and skinned at all.

Unfortunately, there's a lot of hoaxers and greedy, dishonest people in the BigFoot field. So, that means every video we watch we have to have our BigFoot BS shield running and working fully and completely. Once you get used to it you'll be just fine.

Believe you me, BigFoot are real. BigFoot are out there.

Oh yes, you are exactly right, there are so many 'enthusiasts/investigators' out there, doing anything they can to make a name for themselves!


Just like there are a ba jillion paranormal investigators today, everyone and their brother seems to be in the ghost hunting biz today!


Ive had to stop listening to a few shows due to this, its just getting so crazy now, even with 'Dogman Encounters' with Vic Cundiff, one of the last shows, they were seriously theorizing that dogmen are out there to protect us against other more dangerous monsters! (the Rake is one, shadow people are popular now, the hat man, etc).


Another podcast, had this supposed govt agent, that deals with cryptids, that fraud went on for months, 1000s of people were following his every word, and believed it all! Some of the details he spoke of were just off the wall kooky, I was glad to see once this 'agent' went MIA, the guy doing the podcast lost a good deal of credibility over it.

That guy is downright annoying and dumb. Yes, I agree, when Patti turns and looks back at the camera it's all over...that is a real, female Sasquatch there.

Has it ever told you its name was "Patti"? Have you ever met her in the wild? You have two BF researchers that claim they recorded the sounds of BF; did you hear Patti in those sounds? The day you saw the tree branch shaking did you hear "I'm Patti"?

Patti is the name believers have given to their favorite creature to make it sound as if it has human qualities. If it had human qualities it would leave behind scat and other signs that humans leave behind. But after all this time you have nothing and you cling to any last hope like the P&G film.

You also talk about all the hoaxes but you will embrace the next one that is shown. You cannot differentiate one from another; that is like breaking ranks with your fellow members and you don't want to do that.
