Bigfoot may have not evolved on Planet Earth.
NorCalWitness replied to georgerm's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
To the OP - the tide is turning and people are starting to accept that there could be more to this phenomenon than previously thought. In the past, this thread would have been moved to another board and discussion would have been silenced. At least now people are willing to talk without banning the content from the board. It is a slow march. - Today

A more fulsome description of the hoax, as published in The Berkshire County Eagle (Pittsfield, Massachusetts) on August 15, 1861. Will we ever see articles about what they were hoaxing? (That's a trick question, they'll be added later this month.) -
Bigfoot may have not evolved on Planet Earth.
Backdoc replied to georgerm's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
Chance is really just saying 'probability'. If bigfoot exists, why does it have to come from somewhere other than the same sources everything else came from on earth? Why would bigfoot be unique in that way? Is bigfoot really ET? Isn't the 'good chance' that Bigfoot would be either a human-like ape or an ape-like human in the course of our normal development? For Bigfoot to exist it doesn't require any other outstanding ingredients other than that. It always seems to me when people jump the shark on this Bigfoot-isn't-from-planet-earth it is because their belief in some other things like Bigfoot, government conspiracies, Chariots of the Gods, and so on to mix in with their Bigfoot thinking. I'll await your explanation if you feel like chiming in. Still even a hail Mary idea can be right every once in a while. If we want to know what is mostly likely: Bigfoot appeared along the normal developing pathways of man and ape branches. -

If I understand correctly, you are saying 1) You saw Bigfoot. 2) While you were seeing Bigfoot you separately had a paranormal experience. You noticed Bigfoot watching you "under the stars". Obviously, this was a night in order to be under the stars. Did you try to take out a cell phone and get any pic or audio. At night this would be pretty hard, I guess. But in order to know it was bigfoot you would have to see bigfoot. If bigfoot could be seen with the naked eye it would seem to me someone could/would try to video the thing. Meanwhile, can you define specially what was that "paranormal experience". How many people does "Many people" make up I am not trying to give you a hard time. If you say you saw Bigfoot then you saw something you think if Bigfoot. It could have been Bigfoot. If you saw it clearly there is a better chance you got your report right. If you didn't, it makes it harder to be accurate. -

Hello again Frisco and I hope we can have a civil discussion about this topic. I realize there are very few facts that support this outrageous theory of Bigfoot not evolving on the planet Earth. However, a nonexistent fossil record allows a theory like this to surface. There's no recent fossil record of any Bigfoot living on any of the temperate continents In the last 10,000 years. However, China has a Bigfoot fossil record dating back to 200,000 years when a 10 foot tall and 800 pound Bigfoot lived on the continent of China and not on every temperate continent as Bigfoot does today. This ancient Bigfoot is known as Gigantopithecus blackie, and its fossil record dates as far back as 2 million years then it became extinct around 200,000 years ago. So how did Bigfoot suddenly pop up on the planet? The question is do we have a definite recent fossil record of Bigfoot living on all of the continent? No. How did this primate suddenly evolve and appear on all the continents with no confirmed fossil records? The past history of Bigfoot is in question and other theories should be discussed and as time goes by, maybe more facts will surface that will support this outrageous theory. Isn't this how police work evolves when you have an accused criminal and few facts so you have to develop theories and wait untill the facts stack up behind one theory or another. Now in the case of Bigfoot, I realized we are not going to have enough facts to support this theory but professional protocol demands a thorough evaluation of all probable theories. Many times there are not enough facts to back a theory so the criminal goes free or Bigfoot's history remains unproven. Let's have fun with this serious topic. -

California 1963 - Bigfoot Reports Cause Rotarians to Get Rowdy
Trogluddite posted a topic in More Historical Newspaper Archives
Sometimes, the lead just writes itself. Published in The Dunsmuir (CA) News on May 02, 1963. California Forum members may have some 'splaining to do on this one. This is not how I picture Rotarians. People who want the other dozen or so clippings about the Great Rotarian Bigfoot Hunt will have to look for them themselves. This sounds like folks just wanted to get out of dinner with the in-laws. -

Know the Sasquatch/Bigfoot has all the content of Meet the Sasquatch, but also has updated material as of 2010. From what I understand, Chris Murphy is updating KTS/B. Not sure of release date on it however.

NathanFooter replied to georgerm's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
This is 100% the case, human perception is much worse than we want to admit. I have interviewed many ( well over 200 people in person, one on one ) people and spent the time to try and gain an understanding of how " witnesses " interrupt an experience, many times there is massive gaps in the understanding of the situation when returning to a event location and also compounding effects of both the psychological impact in the moment and lower intelligence individuals that frequently submit a large volume of the reports. The short version is humans are terribly unreliable and add stress, low discernment and a desire to have status or experiences and this clearly shows what is going on. I will say it is a possibility that some events are demonic influences messing with people by playing into their fantasy or fascinations but the data over time does not suggest the species in reality is paranormal. The paranormal groups have the absolute lowest quality of evidence to back their claims over time and actually use the paranormal angle to absolve their failures and on the inverse the people ( not many of us left ) just following data and using actually biological patterning practices have a very strong base of information and methods that still yield results. We overestimate our perception and underestimate the Sasquatch. - Yesterday

As I said...I am not trying to convince YOU of anything as it seems you are trying really hard to convince ME, based upon your "feelings" that I should also "feel" the same "feelings" you "feel" about what you "felt" surrounding your alleged encounter. As I said, you do you boo....have fun in the woo, but don't try to ascribe anything such as "drama" and "over exaggeration" to my lack of conviction in your emotional argument. I don't play in that sandbox. I don't doubt you BELIEVE your encounter is as you describe. -

georgerm replied to georgerm's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
The fact part depends how well the person describes the incidents and pays attention to little details that only real observers pick up on. You have to be a critical listener. At about two in the morning, I had a middle age Bigfoot staring at me while I slept, and it could have sent out a telepathic message for me to wake up. I woke up and stared into its eyes as it crouched behind a fallen log a 150 feet away from me. For some reason I was not scared and was interested in what the animal was thinking and doing. When I turned away from seeing the Bigfoot and reached over to wake my friend Bill up this Sasquatch slipped away without a sound. It could have sent me A false message of peace and was really hungry and debating on how it was gonna take one of us out. -

"I have experienced a few very weird things in the woods...," said MIB. Can you tell us of these weird things in the woods? I have a few more incidents to write on. How do you not take Bigfoot seriously when you go into the woods and know that they can take you out about anytime they want. They hold back for some reason or they are too rare to be a danger. -

Frisco85132 replied to georgerm's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
I don't see anything particularly "paranormal" in your waking up suddenly. Humans are still hardwired for survival and with a strong fight or flight reflex. A smell, or a pheromone, or any number of things could have alerted your "soundly sleeping" and "tired after a long days work" body that there was something amiss and awakened you. It could have been a noise your "soundly sleeping" consciousness didn't register but that part of your brain that is still working might have and awakened you. In the absence of anything else, your brain is now searching for an explanation and the only thing it could come up with was "woo" to fill in the gaps. I place zero credibility in the "woo" factor, none whatsoever. Sorry if that bothers you, but it's not my responsibility to participate in what I as a 27 year police veteran and current attorney consider to be "whimsical faux evidence lacking any scientific basis". Conversely, it's not your responsibility to change your mind because of my opinion. When I had my face to face, there were two days of very out of place vocalizations, building slaps, and disturbances in the tree line near our cabin before a very real, very physical, very zoological bigfoot stepped out in front of me at a distance of 10 yards and we stared at one another for 5-15 seconds before it broke to its left and went crashing through the thicket and pines. No "portal" opened up other than the one it created by physically busting through the brush. Call me old fashioned, but I place zero credibility in ANY paranormal, extraterrestrial, spiritual, ghost, or extradimensional connection to the phenomenon. Again, it's not my place or yours to change one another's mind but I am intellectually honest and won't compromise my conviction based on evidence to entertain what I consider to be delusion. -

MIB replied to georgerm's topic in General Bigfoot Discussion
Yes and yes. I've never seen any reason to believe they were paranormal. I've had them "disappear" but each time was sleight of hand .. misdirection of attention. It's like parlor magicians getting you to look where the trick is not so they can fool you. People too arrogant to realize they've been fooled or to accept that they can be fooled are the easiest to fool of all. I have experienced a few very weird things in the woods but there has been no particular reason to believe any of those have any direct connection to bigfoot. Some people try way too hard to turn everything into bigfoot. They're to be recognized, then dismissed .. not to be taken seriously.
