It’s 2026 and people are still desperately trying to discredit the film. So far all attempts have failed as none of them address the issues that exist with replicating the film subject with 1960’s costume technology.

Such surely brings into question any conclusions our new member draws.

I volunteer to perform a blindfolded feel test on any purported Patty "suit" and live female test subject.

Interesting, as even Kitakaze is suggesting it's the Ahtanum Valley footage, which is discussed I believe in Greg Long's book, so it seems Joshua is at odds with Marq Evans on this. Okay - the breast thing is a bit suspicious, but we can't tell until we see those boobs.

It’s the Philip Morris - Bob H. Recreation from 20 years ago. It’s an abomination. Again, it’s not that Roger was a con man. He was. It’s not that Bob G. gets dates wrong or facts wrong from 60 years ago. He does. The 800 lbs Gorilla in the room is Patty walking across that creek bed. Which 20 years ago they failed spectacularly to recreate.🤷‍♂️

Got the emergency lights hooked up. Neighbor kids love them, lol.

Mentions methods that could conceivably add perceived muscle movement to suits, yet fails to demonstrate any such effects on the various suits that have been put forth, over the years. None of those proposed suits have even approached the biological movements seen in the PGF. I predict the Capturing Bigfoot expose will be less than satisfying.

I am not killing the messenger. You were cherry picking some “gotcha moment” Rogan video short against Meldrum. Which is a crock. It doesn’t even remotely represent what Meldrum said in the full interview let alone years of conferences and his BOOK!? Really? Have you read it? So hence forth I will be scrutinizing you based on this slanderous event you perpetrated on this forum. Sorry.

Meldrum was just repeating Joe’s line where he explores what he thinks is a possibility. The only arguments presented here by skeptics are that people close to Patterson claim it’s a hoax. Meanwhile Patty herself has characteristics that aren’t repeatable with costumes.

Kind of like Meldrum’s “confession”??? Give me a break.

Well, yeah - but Rogan also thought that Bob H walked identical to Patty based on nothing more scientific than the eye test, so I'll reserve judgement.

Also apparently Bob is interviewed in the documentary. another quote from the director. "Yes, Bob saw the new footage and gives a very compelling answer to it. People will need to use their own judgment on what and when he knew."

from the *EDIT* Director of the film.

I don't know who Bart is, nor do I care, but his YT video revelation is a complete swing and miss. ::eye roll::

Allegedly in the film there is a "rehearsal" of sorts. those who have seen the footage cant tell if it was part of the original movie Roger was going to make or actually a rehearsal for bluff creek. It is supposed to start streaming this Thursday, time will tell.

I cant speak to the involvement in the current film, I'm sure your all too aware of the effort he was making toward his own though. I have seen him being active on the Coalition page on FB since the morning of this release. Its the first I've seen of him in ages.

Lots of good channels. I particularly like Studying Sasquatch, Hellbent Holler, and Small Town Monsters.

I don't understand your concern about someone "gutting" the PGF. It stood the test of time here on BFF under an electron-microscope type analysis and it is entirely irrelevant who Patterson and Gimlin were personally. Go ahead and try to destroy their reputation. It doesn't change the fact that a video is out there every aspect of which has been analyzed here at BFF over the many years. In my opinion, anyone who wishes to claim the PGF was a hoax has to specifically disprove Gigantofootecus' ASH ratio calculations and Patty's forearm ratio. Not knowing those two issues intimately, much less at all, tells me everything I need to know about someone's ability to intelligently discuss the PGF. Moreover, have they read Bill's Munn's works, which, in my opinion, are a veritable treatise on the PGF, or even know who he is? There are many people who have opinions about a lot of things they possess little or no knowledge. Let them come here and debate both critical, and tangential, issues of the PGF itself.

There are people on Reddit claiming that the documentary disproves the film, and that because of it they no longer believe in the existence of Bigfoot

I already know Roger was a con man. And I am very well acquainted to the dusty old bars filled full of Cowboys. The pranks, the cheats and the shenanigans. I was one of them. Albeit a generation behind. For me? The smoking gun would have to be an explanation for Patty herself. I will leave it here. Maybe it will draw more attention that way. 👍

Patterson confession on film.

I’m not Bart but Rogan got him to admit the truth. Now a documentary proves it with confessions and pre planned test run.
