Lazy Cowboy's PGF Recreations

[Backdoc]

I'm sure a lot of you already know about Lazy Cowboy's Bigfoot YouTube videos.  

 

 

If not, they are a MUST SEE.   Lazy Cowboy does an excellent job taking the data from the PGF and creating a CGI recreations  better than anything I have ever seen.

 

  Specifically, I recommend:

 

1) Bigfoot- Recreating Bluff Creek

 

2) Bigfoot- Recreating Bluff Creek Part 2  The Patteson Gimlin Film Route.   <--- This is the best one.  Outstanding.

 

We can see points of view from any angle, through Roger's camera, through Patty's POV and so on.  The terrain comes to life.  

 

For some already aware of the Lazy Cowboy videos, this is not news.  Still, I would like to hear your thoughts on it and anywhere you might think Lazy Cowboy might get it wrong here or there.  

 

If you haven't seen these, don't walk, RUN to your computer and watch these Especially .  Bigfoot- Recreating Bluff Creek Part 2  The Patteson Gimlin Film Route.  They are amazing.   The PGF site makes sense so much more sense to me now.  

 

One area I am uncertain about is his use of the shadows indicating the PGF was filmed at 3pm timeline not the 1 or 1:30pm.   

 

Give these a view.

For those tech people out there, here is an interview and discussion with Lazy Cowboy on how he made these videos and what he based it on.   Maybe not for everyone but for tech people it is long but impressive.

Interesting @8:25 in the video Lazy Cowboy indicated the shadows indicate a 3pm PGF event filming time.  He doesn't base this just on the shadows but Gimlin stating, @ 8:40 "We left camp about 1:30 in the afternoon"    That camp was about 4 miles away putting then in the PGF film site at about 3pm.

Unfortunately, Bob Gimlin is an unreliable witness (which does not mean I think he's lying).  With regards to this issue, he has said that the film site was:

 

• two miles from the campsite - see Webster's interview of Roger & Bob in 1967
• four miles from the campsite - see John Green's interview of Bob in 1992 and a CBS47 2019 interview of Bob
• Roger Patterson gave both those estimates and added 3 miles in an interview by Stan Peters Interview of Roger Patterson

 

As to the time they left camp, Bob has said:

• midday (which could be 1:30 during the summer, I suppose, but not in October) - see Robert Morgan's interview of Bob
• "right after lunch" (which could be anywhere from 11:00 AM if they were up early to 1:00ish) - Les Stroud's interview with Bob 
• and this 1:30 time, which I believe came from a CBS47 2019 interview of Bob - If I understand correctly, The Lazy Cowboy is using other people's interviews, not his own.

 

And leaving camp about 1:30 contradicts times Bob Gimlin has given for the encounter itself, which include:

• “about midday, perhaps a little bit after noon time” - again from John Green's interview of Bob in 1992
• "Early afternoon" - attributed to John Green's questionnaire in Bigfoot at Bluff Creek by Danny (Daniel) Perez (2003)
• about 2:00 PM - Finding Bigfoot Legend (2018)

 

All of this because early interviewers asked both Roger and Bob to tell them a story, but did not conduct the kind of interview necessary to determine as precisely as possible the facts. 

 

Also, I don't believe that The Lazy Cowboy (or anyone else) cherry-picked a certain interview because it better fits a narrative; instead, it seems a lot of of people are unfamiliar with (or unwilling to admit) the inconsistencies surrounding the P-G film.

Gimlin stated in a "Coast to Coast" interview a few years back, that they were planning to "go in" about 35 or 40 miles that day and stay overnight.

 

Seems like a bit of a late start if they didn't leave till sometime after lunch and (according to Gimlin) it starts getting dark around 4 there.
