At about the 4:00 mark in the 2nd video I posted above (the Whitey video) it sounds like someone says, "What the heck is that?"

This would mean that the camera/audio recorder is either attended or people were standing next to it. This belies the statement by MK Davis that this was an unattended set up.... either that or BF speaks English and is dismayed when trees are broken.

^ I agree. At 3:26 it is obviously someone saying "What to heck is that?" The amplified version at 4:01 makes it even clearer.

Yep this video shows nothing special in my opinion. Although the white thing at the beginning is interesting.

That is some very interesting speech. I think MK is right, One of the words repeated does sound like enoch.

That is consistent with the kinds of mumbling I've captured but I could not make out any English or biblical words.

It is very difficult apparently to capture a visual or a BF mumbling it seems.

This is a video of Scott Nelson, retired Navy Linguist, giving a presentation on BF language. He also has been involved with the Sierra Sounds group. Quite worth the 12 minute presentation. This is just one of several presentations by him.

Wow, one minute in and he's already talking nonsense. The testing that he refers to was reported on by Dr. Grover Krantz in his book Big Footprints (page 134).

Here's what Dr. Krantz wrote over 20 years ago:

"One of the most widely publicized sound recordings was supposedly made at a remote hunting camp in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California, the location of which was known to only the hunters who used it. They brought in another man who taped a long sequence of noises that were quite unlike any other reported sasquatch sounds. None of them claimed to have seen the creatures, but they did show me photographs of numerous tracks in the snow at the camp. These were some of the most obviously faked tracks that I have ever seen. The tape was analyzed by some university sound specialists who determined that a human voice could not have made them; they required a much longer vocal tract. A sasquatch investigator later asked one of these experts if a human could imitate the sound characteristics by simply cupping his hands around his mouth. The answer was yes. I do not know what these recordings actually represent, but given the circumstances they do not seem to merit any further investigation."

So when Mr. Nelson says things like, "and he proved that these sounds were coming from registers the human voice cannot reach"(00:53-01:00)... and "so we know that it's not human" (1:06)... he's not being intellectually honest.

Thanks for the intel, Ray. I've never believed those Sierra Sounds were real. They've always sounded human to me.

The one thing that I would say the Sierra Sounds has going for it is that a few months ago the TBRC posted some sounds they were able to record during their "Operation Endurance" and they sounded eerily similar to the Sierra Sounds. When I first heard them I immediately went, "now wait just a minute!!". These ones were recorded by Bipto's group, and he has a lot of street cred in my book.

I sat through that video with an open mind and I was disappointed. I hope his work is based on more than that. Not a good sign.

I think Mr. Nelson was talking about voice range "pitch" not the vocal tract length estimates.
