Well hello everyone. I do believe. There is just to much evidence out there to not be a believer. I get poked at and razzed from time to time. I can take it. I am thick skinned. I look forward to conversing and reading all that happens here. I look forward to it. Thank you.

Survivorman back at the search for Sasquatch
norseman replied to NorCalWitness's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
Funding? Thatās science, not public perception or opinion. Academics? Thatās science, not public perception or opinion. Jane Goodall is a scientistā¦..not the public. Did not hear she had died. RIP.šš» Grover Krantz was a scientist and his offhand comment tells you everything you need to know about it. If Les Stroud videotapes Bigfoot? Good for him. Good for his show. Good for the public. In the eyes of academia? He will become a charlatan if he isnāt already because he did a show with Todd Standing. Guess what? Todd Standing has many clear videos of alleged Sasquatch. He even sued the Canadian government based on his āevidence.ā HE LOST. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45414641 -

1) Funding. 2) Academics who are afraid to come out. "Jeff Meldrum is brave to take on this subject" Dr. Began on one of these Bigfoot shows. -Jane Goodall died today. She was able to safely talk about the possibility of Bigfoot because she was famous by then. -As Grover Kranz said a while back: "My University supports my research in that they haven't fired me" 3) Many more -
United States 1800s - More Naked Wild Men than Woodstock - Tirademan?
Trogluddite posted a topic in More Historical Newspaper Archives
Most of these clippings were printed in sections labeled "Oddities" or "Miscellaneous." I haven't included detailed accounts that make clear that the "naked wild man" is a human with mental health issues or who was a vagrant at the time. I've tried to avoid naked wild men that are the subject of other posts. It is unclear which, if any, of these posts Tirademan found. If he was unable to speak, how did they determine he was German? -

Yeah, I personally appreciate all good videos and mere witness testimony. As a "believer", I enjoy them all........if they pass my own test of believability. Thanks for that excellent testimony. I personally call it The Age of the Lie. I also see the internet as a tool of the Liars, but it balances out for me as an incredible tool for my own use in every way. It's like guns, cars, chainsaws, etc; they're tools that reflect the morals of the user. -

Why is āmoving the needleā of public perception helpful? Bigfoot is everywhere. From Jerky commercials to mattress commercials to monster trucks to TV shows. Bigfoot does not lack popularityā¦. It lacks credibility. And now we are full circle back to the pastey old gray haired men in lab coats. -

Until I get a body, that is enough for me. Hardliners won't change. Maybe just maybe there are some skeptics who are soft skeptics. They might be willing to move from the hardline position based on having a better video to lean on. Well today in our society we have the DEATH OF TRUTH where podcasters can throw out conspiracy theories and so on. Some Podcasters are paid to promote positions of their pay masters. In such a world we now have the DEATH OF TRUTH. Because of this, your statement is truer today than it would have been 10 or 20 years ago. The internet has become the enemy of truth and fact. True -

Backdoc replied to NorCalWitness's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
I agree. I am talking about the world we live in which is pre-body (on a slab). Until that happens, we have to use the non-body things at our disposal. Moving the needle is helpful. The bigfoot issue is better with those things than without them. I don't think the public's general requirement is the same as the absolute requirement of the 'science community' -

I know what youāre getting at, but unfortunately itās just wrong. āThe definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different outcomeā This isn't a personal attack, this is an evaluation of our entire community. The only way to get science involved is to give them what they want. They don't want videos, Survivorman or otherwise. They want physical evidence. Where do most pastey white gray haired professors start their search for new species? The bush meat trade and apothecary shops. Bones, teeth, skulls, hides, etc. They see grainy photos of cryptid animals as slimey and dubious. -

You are describing PGF 2.0. Yes, many more would believe in sasquatchery as a result than do now. No, no skeptics would soften their position because they're skeptics. It's an ideology. They will not budge. No, it would not be a "home run". You are not the umpire. You do not have the authority to call the play. Science does, and they will rule the video as an infield double or triple, at best, regardless of the crowd applause or booing. But I agree that it will have an effect. It will please some, anger others, and be of no matter to many more. -

Unfortunately, if we don't use Hyperbole and extremes in our examples on the BFF someone will pretend to not know what we mean. Worse yet, they may actually not know what we mean. I wish it wasn't so. I'd say whatever standard one will accept... imagine a video so compelling it would be pretty convincing. As you know, that's all I am getting at. -

norseman replied to NorCalWitness's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
Your welcome. Your home run examples were a domesticated Deer fawn and a Gorilla in a zoo. Obviously if Sasquatch was domesticated or in a zoo? We would not need a home run video. So we are stuck with amateur photographers in wilderness settings. And yet, the videos too ambiguous are claimed as a misidentification. And the videos like the PGF are a hoax. And now we have a complete gut of AI generated nonsense. All I can say is good luck. -

The Bigfoot Video world seems to have a bookend: PGF -------------------> normal video world of a few years ago Thats A-Z Now with high tech and AI they can make a video where it looks convincing of about anything. We no longer can believe our eyes when it comes to video. Some tech guys could tell answer this: If a great new video was filmed and smart people had access to it, could they tell if it was faked or manipulated? -

Great videos! I would say some are better offered here are better than others. These are really good but don't attain the Home Run level for my example. Still, some are excellent. I don't know what I am looking at when that thing is yanking on the bark. WOW Hoax? Real? Thanks for posting these. -

I picked all older ones from memory as new videos are flooded with AI garbage. I no longer know how to vet videos. So if Sasquatch was gonna have a āhome runā video? The PGF was it. In 2025 there are thousands of videos. -

One more time to beat a dead horse. I am not saying best Home Run video would be 100% proof. It would be a game changer, however. I don't see how anyone could say otherwise. Not 100% but pretty close. If we have Bigfoot in a zoo and I took a video of him for 1 hour that would be a home run video. Granted some biologist at home watching it might still want that Body on a slab if it was an unknown ape. While a small % of our population doesn't think we even landed on the moon, most would see it for what it is: A really good video of interesting new something in a cage. I use this unrealistic example as the most extreme best-case scenario apart from a body on a slab. Think of it like Diamond Grading. Diamonds are nearly off the charts in hardness. Then way below it there are varying degrees of other materials lower in harness. The home run video is the Diamond. When I was a kid in the 1970s, I saw a Bigfoot show where a lady claimed a Bigfoot encounter. She saw bigfoot was on some beach digging out of the ground and eating for 20-30 min. She didn't have a camera and no video camera. She just sat and watched in wonder. Say someone like Les has that exact same encounter. He gets a 20 min of video. We would hear any noise or grunts and growls from the encounter. Say he moves in closer and gets really close. Surprising Bigfoot at just 30 feet away he then gets a video of Bigfoot walking away. He continues to film every step and movement (and zooms in) for over 100 yards or more until it disappears. Then, he films the footprints on the shore, what he was digging and eating and so on. He can film any hair and put it in a bag and film the gathering process. He could even do a stomp test if he was so inclined. He fully documents the encounter. This would be a Home Run video. Once the video went international on social media there would be no way to put that genie back in the bottle. A HOME RUN video would move the needle dramatically. More would believe in Bigfoot as a result than do now. More skeptics would soften their position toward either belief or "it might be possible" I do not agree with those who think it would have little to no effect. I think it would be an earthquake. -

Nebraska 1949 - Wild Man Trapped in Barn (or Not)
Trogluddite posted a topic in More Historical Newspaper Archives
I tend to think that this is a human, but who knows? Published in the North Platte (NE) Telegraph-Bulletin on August 09, 1949. As published in the Waukesha (WI) Daily Freeman on August 10, 1949, he doesn't appear to have been trapped, or to have been a Bigfoot/Sasquatch. -
Michigan 1892 - 7-foot Tall Hairy Giant - Tirademan!
Trogluddite posted a topic in More Historical Newspaper Archives
Okay, Tirademan found something that could be a Sasquatch/Bigfoot in Michigan in 1892, but I'm sure this isn't it. If I find whatever he found, I'll post it here. For now this "oddity," published in the Maitland (New South Wales, Australia) Mercury on January 07, 1892 will have to do. The codfish bonus is free.
