Is Bigfoot height and speed exaggerated?
Doug replied to Scratchy's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
Moose stand 7 to 8 feet tall at the shoulder, are 9 to 10 feet long, weigh 1,200 to 1,800 pounds and where there is a high concentration of them, there are still large amounts of ripe growth available to them and other animals. They run up to 35 miles per hour. Brown bears are 4 to 5 feet tall at the shoulder and 8 to 10 feet tall when standing on their hind legs. They weigh up to 1,500 pounds and can run 35 miles per hour and can kill many moose, caribou, elk and deer in a year. So, I don't find those descriptions of sasquatches ridiculously far fetched, just somewhat exaggerated due to witness perception. -
Is Bigfoot height and speed exaggerated?
OntarioSquatch replied to Scratchy's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
Yup. Some research suggests that Sasquatch are faster and heavier than they look, which is insane because it’s hard to imagine both at the same time. One interest thing I’ve noticed though over the years is that genuine eyewitnesses are often more shocked by how thick the subject is rather than how tall. - Today

I Had to See that Sasquatch Again! - Bigfoot Eyewitness Episode 527
BFFbot posted a topic in Bigfoot Eyewitness Radio
Tonight’s guest, D’von Gilpon, was born and raised in France. In the 90’s, when he was around 12 or 13 years old, he moved to Oklahoma, with his mother, after she remarried. Fast forward to the year 2000. One day in the year 2000, D’von had gone on a camping trip with a group of his friends and their families at Lake Arcadia, which is northeast of Oklahoma City. The night they got there, D’von decided to explore the area around the lake, to see what was out there. He was hoping to find something interesting on that walk. It’s a gross understatement to say that he did. We hope you’ll tune in and listen to him chronicle what happened on that walk and what happened when he had his next experience. If you've had at least one Sasquatch sighting and would like to be a guest on the show, please go to BigfootEyewitness.com and let me know. I'd love to hear from you.

I’m only my semi-monthly Bigfoot dive again and this popped up in my noodle. Am I the only one that feels like Sasquatch are grossly over-estimated physically? Height- The tallest man without deformity was Angus Macaskill, who was 7’9 at his peak. Sasquatch data usually has the height clusters at 6-8 feet tall. I believe that biomechanically sasquatches would also not be able to reach over 8’ tall. It simply wouldn’t make sense for a large upright bipedal organism, especially one that is said to be a hunter. There are many reports of 9’, 10’, or even up to 12’ tall Sasquatches being seen. This just sounds bogus to me for a variety of reasons besides physical feasibility. People would absolutely be noticing these things way more with just a height increase from 7’ up to 11-12’. It would be almost impossible for the creature to feed itself partly because it could not move quickly and quietly enough to catch prey, and because it would absolutely demolish very large stands of ripe growth with how much food it would take in. Speed- This is my main issue. The fastest man we know of is Usain Bolt, who topped out at 27ish miles per hour. Most college level sprinters max out at around 23-25. There are fossilized Australian human footprints that when measured predicted the man making them was sprinting over muddy terrain at about 23 mph and increasing slightly. This is the fastest of all the large bipedal primates (us) we know of. The other great apes are about the same or worse. Google says Chimps and Gorillas attain similar speeds, but anyone that has seen videos of these beasts running would agree that is the exception and not the rule. They are clumsy arboreally adapted animals. Orangutans aren’t even worth mentioning as they are pitiful on the ground. The absolute fastest primates are baboons and patas monkeys. Baboons clock up to 28-30. Patas monkeys, the fastest recorded primate, clocks in at an underwhelming 34-35 mph. I want someone to explain to me with sound logic how an extremely large, bulky, upright bipedal hominid is supposedly faster than a gracile, semi-digitigrade, speed adapted plains monkey. It makes zero biological sense. There are reports of these things keeping up with cars on highways or horses at a full gallop. It is literally lunacy. what does everyone think? Are people just stupid and awestruck? What else could be going on?

Is the Bigfoot Forum losing interest?
Scratchy replied to georgerm's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
I’ve lurked here for many years on and off. I’ve posted a few times in the past but mainly come here periodically to see if anything new is happening. I too have noticed the forum is much less active than before. It’s an independent platform. That has nothing on Reddit. The reason the Bigfoot subReddit is growing so much is because A. It’s just a huge conglomerate that attracts people and B. There’s regular influx of users from other similar subreddits like the paranormal, cryptozoology, outdoorsmen subreddits. Interest in Bigfoot is not really dying I believe either. As far as the sasquatches themselves I believe there is somewhat less than in the past. I personally like to think the population is declining locally in some areas and remaining stable or even increasing in others. It’s likely there’s less Sasquatch in the southeast for example than before due to human encroachment, but there’s undoubtedly population stability or rise in places like rural Canada. I am a young guy and the advice I would give to get the BFF back on track is to advertise both on and offline however you can. Guarantee you a lot of the younger folks on the subreddit have never heard of BFF and would happily partake. This forum is pretty well put together and offers unique tailorship to Sasquatch compared to the subReddit. edit: realized I’ve posted in here before but wanted to elaborate -
That poster was my friend Bill Miller, who unfortunately passed away 6 or 7 years ago. That test was done on the shore of Harrison Lake, here in BC. He is sorely missed in our local research circle.

1964/8/01 - Film - 7-Foot Tall Hairy Upright Creature Filmed in Texas
Trogluddite posted a topic in Patterson-Gimlin Film Reference Materials
Two men claimed to have filmed a 7-foot tall hairy upright creature on August 1, 1964, near Arlington, Texas. Their claim was published in various Texas newspapers and their film was aired on WBAP-TV that same night. News reports say that the film was a little clearer, but made the creature look even more like a ruse. While this film precedes the P-G film by several years, there is no evidence that news of the film reached the state of Washington in 1964. Keep checking the new Historical Newspaper Archives for the rest of the story! -

In this episode, we delve into the extraordinary experiences of Johnny from the White Mountains of New Hampshire, whose encounters with Bigfoot began after relocating to the rugged terrain within twenty miles of Mount Washington. With a lifelong background in psychic sensitivity and Indigenous Māori traditions, Johnny shares how subtle feelings of being watched along remote forestry roads slowly unfolded into something far more profound. Describing unexplained impacts on his vehicle, strange energy barriers at the edge of ski slopes, and fleeting glimpses of massive gray figures moving through dense timber, Johnny paints a vivid picture of activity deep in the New England wilderness. He recounts moments of apparent telepathic communication, predator-style cloaking effects, and a towering face-to-face sighting of a being estimated between nine and eleven feet tall. Johnny also explores the energetic nature of these forest beings, offering insight into their awareness, intelligence, and presence in the White Mountains region. His detailed testimony raises compelling questions about what may be operating in some of the most iconic landscapes of New Hampshire. Join us as we navigate Johnny’s remarkable experiences and the growing mystery surrounding Bigfoot in the Mount Washington area. 🗣️ Share Your Story Had a Bigfoot encounter or strange experience?

In this episode, we reconnect with Kevin from New Hampshire and Christopher from Ontario as they share unsettling new developments since their previous appearances on the show. Kevin, a lifelong hunter who knows the Ossipee Mountain Range near Lake Winnipesaukee like the back of his hand, describes an overpowering odor that stopped him mid-hunt, followed days later by massive human-shaped tracks stretching across remote bog systems. With decades of experience reading sign in the woods, Kevin walks us through what he found and why it refuses to make sense. We then travel north to Ontario, where Christopher recounts a series of remarkable encounters spanning remote wilderness properties and mineral-rich landscapes. From rocks thrown near camp and intricate forest structures to nighttime chatter along the shoreline and an unexpected roadside sighting near Sunridge, his experiences build layer upon layer. He also shares moments of attempted communication, unusual sky phenomena, and an encounter inside a cabin that left one witness shaken. These updates span rugged New England mountains and the deep forests of Canada, offering firsthand accounts from individuals who continue returning to the same locations year after year. Their stories raise compelling questions about presence, interaction, and what may be unfolding just beyond the edge of the treeline. Join us as we explore these powerful new testimonies and the expanding mystery surrounding Bigfoot in New Hampshire and Ontario.
