Guest Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Ronn This is a very good point as you would need a 4 wheel drive truck, just to get up the incline to the property. I guess it's possible there may be another trail or inlet to the property, someplace else, but I can only verify what I saw. At the very least, you would need a pick up with a trailer or a long bed pick up truck to carry the body out and then load it into a refrigerated truck. This story took place in September which means it was about 100 degrees with 60% humidity. It would not take very long for a Bigfoot to ripen if you didn't cool it down quickly. In addition, you would need a "come along" or some other type of winch to drag the body, up a ramp, and into the back of a truck or trailer. A 9ft tall, 600-800 lb Bigfoot body would NOT fit in the back of RD's Lincoln Navigator. For that matter, I don't think it would fit in the bed of a standard length pick up truck, without an arm or leg hanging out the back. It's worth mentioning the trees are not very big in this area so using a rope and limb would be difficult as I don't remember seeing any oak trees that were big enough, to have branches, that could support a BF body. It would also depend on the location where they claim to have shot it. If it was far back, off the beaten path, they would have had to tow it out with a couple of ATV's. Anyhow, Ronn; it's a very good point and, I agree, more relevant than the cops showing up. Definitely something that would be very hard to deal with last minute and without raising any alarms. Think about it; you couldn't trust anybody. You would have to do everything yourself. Then, once you rented the equipment and trucks to move the body; where would you take it? It's not as simple as calling a "university" and telling them you have a Bigfoot body you want to share. Really, take a second and think about it; you're in San Antonio, with a dead Bigfoot, that's starting to turn, and you have to find someplace that will take it off your hands, yet, let you maintain ownership and give you access to the body, whenever you wanted. So, all of this must have happened magically and RD just chose Las Vegas? Really!? After spending a few thousand on equipment rentals, moving a stinky carcass, in the middle of the hottest month of the year, he decided to take it to Las Vegas? That's the first place that crossed his mind? I was under the impression that it was under the care of a university in Texas? When did that change to a mysterious location in Las Vegas? Maybe RD has just given Musky Allen, an excuse to visit Vegas? I guess Musky will just tell his wife; "Honey, I'll be out of town for the next few days. I have some work to do in Vegas?" I had never given much thought to the logistics until Ronn pointed it out. It would be a huge and costly thing to do, on the fly and in confidence. Who wrote the check? I promise you it was not RD. I don't want to hear that the university drove down and got it because we know that's not true. Kudos to the first person, that can prove to this forum, they were able to get a university to come over to pick up their dead Bigfoot body AND keep it secret.... Well he has said that they contacted government officials or a government department (?) so surely they helped sort out how to get the body out? I dont think RD would have been there on his iPhone frantically searching the 'Man with a Van' ads! As far as storage goes, I am pretty sure I heard him say that a make shift special refridgeration unit had been made but not in a university, somewhere near a university.

Hi, I would be curious to know where he got the number for these "government officials" or the "government department" who helped him. I don't know if would be a number freely available to the public. I'd also be astounded if indeed these MIBs did turn up to witness arguably the greatest scientific discovery ever, help RD and Minnow, then be on their way without a fuss. Is this what is supposed to have happened? They turned up, helped them and left? It is just not feasible if that is indeed what RD is claiming. It seems that whenever someone tries to add credibility to a story, they mention these shadowy government figures. Paradoxically, it gives even less credence to the tale.

Lee Well obviously I dont know what happened but I would have thought that given that Rick Dyer was intent on finding a bigfoot and had made a decision that if he did chance upon one then he would go for the kill, then I would have thought that he already had a plan in his head of who he would call how he would get the animal out etc etc... I am sure he would have given all of this thought beforehand in case that his dream came true. After all we all do plan for bad things as well as good things in life? We all take out insurance even when we dont know if we are gonna crash our cars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I'll agree there. I think JD had some kind of plan, however loose, just in case. I don't think it happened (the kill), but I think he probably had a general plan just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopelyrics Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) I see...so he phoned the "government department" beforehand just in case he managed to shoot and kill a Bigfoot? A sort of insurance policy. He told them it was possible he was about to kill an 8 feet tall, 500lb hominin, previously unknown to science, and could they be on hand to help him move the body? Their response was along the lines of, "Well, if you do manage to shoot and kill an animal that we say doesn't exist then yes, we will come and help you move it and leave the rest to you." This thread gets more bizarre by the day. But entertaining nonetheless. Lee Edited January 29, 2013 by dopelyrics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 It makes no since that any state, city or gov employee would just show up and say ゛yep thats a bf now get it out of here゛why keep silent？ why no report？ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I was thinking more along the lines of 'I'll borrow Zeke's truck, I'll buy a whole bunch of ice, I'll take it to (wherever)" ... that sort of thing. Geez, there are threads on this forum about what we would do if we hit or found a BF. It's not stretch to think RD would have had some kind of plan. I still don't think any of it is true though. I don't believe the tent video, I don't believe anything was shot, I don't believe any authorities were called unless it was Minnow getting nervous that RD was aiming his gun at anything that moved.

Guest Thepattywagon Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Can anyone point me to another sightings report where a Bigfoot strolled into an occupied campsite in broad daylight? And supposedly, this one did it twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dopelyrics Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Belmar, I was talking specifically about the "government agency" angle that has been mentioned, and how likely it would be that they featured in any plan. Given the fact that the overwhelming majority of the Bigfoot community don't take RD seriously, given his past in hoaxing them, I'm not sure how much more/less seriously this secret government agency would take RD. That is assuming he got through to the right department when he rang them, of course. Best. Lee Edited January 29, 2013 by dopelyrics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that i give Dyer one ounce of credibility or his stories, but it does there's lots if you google " BFRO campsite daylight " for example http://www.bfro.net/gdb/show_report.asp?ID=36406&PrinterFriendly=True http://www.bfro.net/gdb/show_report.asp?id=28642 http://www.bfro.net/gdb/show_report.asp?id=30860 http://www.bfro.net/gdb/show_report.asp?id=27568 http://www.bfro.net/GDB/show_report.asp?id=6775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VioletX Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Thanks Bobby O, where BF is concerned there seems to be no limit to the strange things they do and IMO, it does not seem strange that a BF would steal food at campsites. I keep imagining that right after the supposed kill, the BF was temporarily stored in the Walmart meat department where they bought the ribs ; ) Top work Cisco. Good to see where Minnow Films and Dyer set up and filmed for ten days. Sorry less than that. Dyer got canned. Why he got pushed I do not know. Either it was for shooting a Bigfoot and making everyone involved with the film rich and famous or perhaps that spending 10 days in the woods behind Home Depot would be too much for anyone to bear. It really seems like a new sport is developing recently. Who can carry out the most elaborate, drawn out hoax? Hopefully I can get the go ahead to put this charade to bed. At this point if Minnow is keeping quiet, than if it is a charade, both Dyer and Minnow are implicated. Why would your source not want to give permission to "put the charade to bed"...it just makes no sense. Edited January 29, 2013 by VioletX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisco Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) Ha ha Violet, yeah, with some adrenalin pumping from the excitement, that might be manageable, lol And Cisco, this is a screen capture from the google maps photo of the land, looks like 44 acres. I don't know how old this photo is but I do know that is not the real estate company that has the land under contract. Are you sure this is right? Here's the link to the company that is managing this property, with an overhead view of the property itself. http://mciverpropert...y 151 Flyer.pdf Now that I have taken a closer look, I think the whole property is more like a hundred acres.

Guest Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 edit from last post...makes no sense. ( dang tablet! ) RD argued on his radio show that there is no way the tent video is a hoax because he doesnt have 100,000 to put into a costume that elaborate. We actually didn't see the entire body on video, really only the head and shoulders. This could be a puppet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it interesting he would throw out a dollar amount... Most would say, "I couldn't afford a costume like this." I don't think any one would be able to look at something and attach a dollar amount. Maybe the Production company paid for the costume? LOL. Heck I wouldn't even know how to assign a dollar amount to any costume unless I spoke with a costume maker. Interesting choice of words...
