      The most important part of that video is on the screen capture.  I first heard of this video on the TV show Bigfoot: Legend Meets Science.  At that time, and through the first few years of Finding Bigfoot, I had at most a mild curiosity about the topic.    I always understood that the subject in the MDF was running across a hillside along a random path through the underbrush, rocks, brambles, downed logs, and other things that litter nature.  If it was running along a well-worn hiking trail in the middle of the day, that suggests to me that it was a human in a suit participating in a hoax (whether known or unknown to those filming it).  I don't recall the Bigfoot: Legend Meets Science book or tv show making clear that the subject of the film was running on a hiking trail.

      Why use a Track Runner in the MDF…     The reason the TV show used the elite runner was to establish an extreme.   It’s the same reason people want to know how tall Patty is.   If Patty is 6’1” tall it’s the same as many available men.   If Patty was some outrageous height 7 or 8 feet tall then it immediately becomes more likely Patty is no man in a suit.   Onto the MDF and the runner:     If the elite runner- who is not even burdened with a suit -couldn’t outrun the MDF figure it virtually guarantees its no man in a suit.   If it’s not a man a man in a suit it must be real creature.  It was the simplest way to test the MDF.      We don’t know how fast the runner would run wearing a suit.  Even if he could run faster than our MDF figure while wearing a suit the real and hoax possibility exists.     The show wanted to set up an extreme.  If the figure exceeded that extreme it would be a fast way to case closed.

      Sooooo ... Bob Gimlin was in on creating a fake P-G film with Roger Patterson?  And never said anything to blow up the fraud that Roger had allegedly committed?  I've just posted a long-lost and/or little-known 1978 newspaper article with comments from Bob Gimlin.  Do these comments sound like a man who owes Roger Patterson, Patricia Patterson, or Al DeAtley any silence about the P-G film if it was, as now claimed, a fraud?

      It's interesting that TT concludes the subject in the footage is a human in a suit, and that he hates to debunk old footage. Because he showed the opposite about the subject in the footage in a previous video years ago.   Remember his 'Cracking the Bigfoot Code' video from years ago. Just in case someone doesn't, it was mainly about Bob H.'s body proportions compared to Patty. Towards the end, he showed pics of alleged Bigfoot and used pixels to show the figure's arm length and leg length. In this newer analysis, he says the legs of the subject were 30% longer than the arms.   Here is a screenshot of what he showed for the figure in the Memorial Day footage in his 'Cracking The Bigfoot Code' video from 11 years ago. He shows the leg length as only 7% longer than the legs, and 'Non-Human Range'. It's hard to say if the blurriness threw off his measurement of the arm length.   I wonder if he remembered this while he was doing this newer analysis.
