I know this topic is more suited for /k but i dont want to spoil it.

Its been a myth all these while and some say they saw it and some claim that its a hoax. What do you guys think? I think its a hoax that gone wild that majority believed in it and being played out by the media.

Discuss

While you are at that, why dont you whip up topics on the Loch Ness and the Chupacabra as well?

good idea. but it seems like not many ppl kniw about them cuz no reply.

From this forum seems like people believe more in ghost and sorcery than big foot.

big doesn't exist. There are only a few videos that are vague about big foot's existence. Most of them are people in monkey suit.

So no, big foot is definitely not real. Even if it really exist, the number will be very low since no human have seen it. Therefore it might be a extinct species already.

if this thingy is exist surely we can find it easily...
shame with the large size monster we only able to find footprint and a retard in gorilla suit blurr pic...

quite unrealistic if thinkin twice

how about loch ness monster?? Its big big it can hide under water nad discovery channel put a probe into the lake and everything.. do u think it exist?

Instead of asking believe or not, why dont u state ur own opinion and articles or something to make people believe or disbelieve it
All this while media make a very vague existence evidence for big foot
Even the "clearest" pic about this big foot is very blur, for me is just like gorilla got captured on the snow field, or in the forest
And most of the time we cannot rely on media source.....is there any reason u think that it is impossible for someone to dress up in gorilla suit and exposed on the media claiming this "thing" is the legendary big foot and trying to make some money?

At least theres no scientific prove that this is exist, while u dont need any prove to say that it is not exist

I dont think it is really that large compare to other big-size animal, just abit bigger than normal human being

share some serious opinions,not this kind of random joke.

big foot is the pre-historic man in the theory evolution....

This is what happens when reputable channels like History and Discovery gets swamped with nonsensical programmes like 'UFO hunters'......

where? should have took pictures and prove that its real. Not much report on big foot

at tampler park but not so sure if real BIGFOOT lol

what do u mean not sure? Nobody saw the real big foot b4 so if its something out of ordinary should be something interesting.

FYI,big foot is alleged to living in north america

how about "Orang Kenit" (small human)?
quite few incidents claimed by villagers especially during 90's.
same with big foot. its just a hoax without clear evidence.

both orang kenit and big foot i'm referring to incidents that happened in malaysia

in fact all these stories are the same
nobody has actually seen it but since someone tells a lively story then the whole alleged incident spreads without control

what's with kopitiam comments in this section. All these one liner comments has been reported.

I do not want these stupid /k/ comments to infect this section. Please go away.

A Bigfoot thread? Nice. Please read and respond... would like to know your thoughts on my take.

After years of (again) scouring online, reading texts, watching countless TV documentaries, and of course, making own conclusions, this is what I can say as "my own" facts about Bigfoot (poor man's expedition... exploration while seated down):

1. Bigfoot can be found all over the world in different regions.
They are the same creature but localized to suit the environment they are in (e.g Yeti is said to white due to mountainous terrain, normal Bigfoot are brown/dark brown/black, there are also some that are skinnier, shorter, etc.).

2. Bigfoot species is *drum rolls*
Gigantopithecus blacki. An ancient ape. Why? After numerous hits of the same information I scoured with same evidence of what these creatures could do (including the posture which goes away from being on all fours, instead, the posture is said to be upright/bipedal). NO full skeletal of Gigantopithecus has ever been found. Only a skull. A big, giant skull. Mapping the skull structure to the ratio of the body it would be on, it is said to stand upto 3.0 metres ! Tallies with eyewitness description of monstrous height. Now that... is monstrous. Hey, who said everything that supposedly went extinct disappeared completely? Even Orang Pendek is a confirmed extinct species of bipedal (which locals claim to still see).



3. Why not Bigfoot carcass / dead body?
Now this is where it gets interesting. Forget about what an animal usually does for a minute. Now think of a human. When a human dies (hey, we are after all... *apes*), we bury the dead. I have theorized that Bigfoot bury the dead, on unmarked graves. Numerous Bigfoot expeditions have pointed out strange "X" like branches strung from trees - - I would seriously consider digging the ground under this "X" (all can Google search, it is all there... seriously
http://www.bigfootphenomena.webs.com/types.html
http://www.nabigfootsearch.com/Bigfootsightings.html).
You are most likely to find an entire skeletal structure of Gigantopithecus in these ground area.

4. Since Bigfoot bury the dead, can they "speak"?
When we say speak, we mean communicating with words. Bigfoot communicate. With words (!) Don't worry, the words are still very much ape like but I did read somewhere (like a week ago) where a long 'conversation' between two Bigfoot arguing over food was recorded and analyzed by a professor. The sound was said to be a lot ape like (think deep voiced chimpanzee) but it had much, much more variation and subtlety. This is nothing short of magnificent.

5. OK, so where are they? So big yet keep hiding?
I said before to forget about what an animal usually does. Does not apply here. Animals protect themselves by hiding. They defend their territory and attack when provoked. Hey, Bigfoot does the same. As with all sightings, Bigfoot tend to "walk away" and some "run away so fast for its size". And then there are others - - Bigfoot is a bit of a rock thrower. It is said that Bigfoot would throw large rocks at you to keep you away from its territory. I'm just pulling the resource from Google as I have read it before from different sources:
http://www.bfro.net/GDB/show_report.asp?id=11702
But NEVER has a Bigfoot reported to physically attack a man ! Very interesting. And smart to not have ever done so. They have shaken caravans, thrown rocks and howled but never directly attacking a human.

6. Bigfoot have PO box?
They live in caves. This much I can tell. Caves with nice giant rocks that they push to close the entrance to a smaller cave dwelling. They are, cave dwellers. No one has ever seen a Bigfoot settlement, because I truly believe, they search the forest for food and go right back into their cave. Their caves are remote, hidden from sight and also closed with a big rock. A door. Made of rock.
Imagine stumbling into a cave dwelling with dozens of Bigfoot. Oh oh... you better run. Just the sight of monstrous 2.0-3.0 metre tall hairy beings rushing towards you. That is downright scary.

7. Have we seen Bigfoot?
Yes. The infamous Patterson footage is REAL. Now, believe me, for many years I truly believed the footage is absolute fake. I mean, come on, it is clear as day it is a man walking in an ape suit. I watched on TV a documentary that changed it all - - the one on Nat Geo (I think it is Mystery 360: Bigfoot Revealed). They asked Patterson's wife and took a direct copy of the footage (the original footage is stored in a bank vault since Patterson died). Frame-by-frame, they stabilized it. The end result - - a human couldn't possibly establish the physical ratio of the Bigfoot. They even went the next step and hired a tall actor to play the role of the Bigfoot, re-enact the sequence to see if a human could fit the ratio. He couldn't. You should watch it, please do so. I became a true believer of the Patterson footage. Forget about the man that claimed he walked the suit and all, right until the dying days of Patterson he still swore the footage was real. And by the way, it is said to be a female Bigfoot due to certain characteristics. Ape experts that believe the footage is real also claim it is a female bipedal ape.

8. So, after thousands of years, homo sapiens and Gigantopithecus lived together?
The answer is yes. Some ancient cultures fear them, others revere them, and then some call them the giants. One way or another, home sapiens did live with Gigantopithecus. Apparently as the human population grew, they were ousted. They became reclusive and hid well away from men.

That's it. That is all I know about Bigfoot - - an ancient living ape. Smart, powerful and very reclusive.

We are yet to find a body of a Bigfoot or a carcass.

Hey, didn't we discover Gorillas in 1930 ! (That's 80 years ago... during the days of Titanic, Gorillas were just a joke/fantasy story).

I dont think your explanation is logic. Humans have explored the whole earth and if they are real, probably get discovered already. And there's satelite as well which can scan an entire area.

The answers you seek are all from internet. You need useful information from the expert. If you search for positive answer in the internet, then you get positive answers. You search for negative answers then you get negative. Internet source is not reliable.

You got to be kidding me. No, seriously.
