Metilda imagery was sold to a Canadian named Erickson/ Ericksen and he had it analyzed. It came back as mini-Chewbacca. Erickson also purchased the infamous 'pancake video'. Zero for 2. Standing must have a good line of horse feathers. I can't imagine what is next. He did? I thought Meldrum dismissed it.

Its been about 8 years of rather focused interest on my part. I have seen the numerous anti-Standing posts, but have yet to see anything that proves him to be a fraud. If there is some sacred knowledge that the more informed have, I would be more than happy to review it. Try the bigfoot hall of shame by squatchdetective.com https://squatchdetective.weebly.com/-hall-of-shame.html which documented his sisters and his deceit and hijinks in his first Sylvanic hoax. Once a hoaxer always a hoaxer in my book, like once a liar always a liar premise in jurisprudence. Edited Tuesday at 11:48 PM by bipedalist

I am not sure how I switched up the players in the Matilda proceedings. I don't follow Todd Standing but I believe that he and his make-up artist wife have a production company. Anyone can make a creature these days. There is a company in South Africa that makes camo for trail cameras that are used to catch poachers ( Camohyde ). They do like a 'life cast' of various tree species and they are good. I checked prices on materials locally to determine if I could do tree bark castings of PNW trees cheaper. No way. The materials / techniques that are available will impress. The cosplay groups have many options. Take a look; https://www.smooth-on.com/ They have goops, but no hair / fur.

You were being scanned. Reviewing brain waves, when you were sleeping, Delta brainwaves are about 0.1--4Hz and you were sleeping like a log. When you snapped to, you were in Beta brainwave region of about 12Hz--30Hz. Maybe a little Gamma above 30Hz. The Sasquatch was scanning you. Did you smell anything? Did this happen again later in life? I did not find Northwest Encounters so I will make some guesses. You snapped to, was active for a short time, fell back asleep and slept like a rock. Woke up feeling refreshed, more refreshed than your partner. That 2 AM time factor seems common ( I had a tent flap lift and drop at 2 AM ). How did you know the time? The fun part of the 2 AM detail is you can find a moon rise--moon set calendar, plug in the year, day and time and get the moon position and phase.

When I was consistently visited "locally" by the locals, I would spontaneously awaken at 3:33am on a consistent basis and a lot of my nocturnal sound captures/recordings of foolery were within that time parameter.

IIRC, shipping by mail is a disaster so DHL was used. Currently I do not know shipping costs of DHL out of South Africa. They claim that their CamoHide is odorless but it smells.

That seems to be a common problem amongst the elderly, but 3 AM here in Alaska is 7 AM to East Coast bigfooters, so I'm right on time with the next generation there..

I think he got a couple of genuine videos (the Sasquatch running up the side of that insanely steep cliff) and POSSIBLY the one with the obscured black forehead, but then he fell into the trap of having to top his successes with "better successes" and his subsequent alleged evidence is suspect. BUT...I allow for the possibility, if not the probability that all his stuff is genuine, but like Ivan Marx and Rick Dyer who are proven hoaxers, Standing is on my list of "suspected hoaxers". Though I DO think that Dr Meldrum and Dr Bindernagel to BOTH be fooled is probably a stretch, so I believe them if not Standing.
Patterson-Gimlin Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Thanks for the explanation. I cannot agree with suspected hoaxer. Have you seen his Muppet videos? Quite laughable. Perhaps he did have legitimate sightings. Once fraud is more than suspected and it is certainly obvious. Then the logical conclusion is to disregard his credibility. Not the case with the Patterson film. One time success. Never had any fraudulent follow up. Therefore we can conclude the film subject is of possibly a real creature.
