You've never heard of Philip Morris (maker of the suit used in Patterson's film) or Bob Heironimus (the guy that wore the suit).

ack-ack
Yeah, and their story didn't add up either.

What other evidence do you have?

All I saw in Bigfoot's defense was that video.

www.google.com

Have at it.

 Sadly they do exist in zoos in North america. It's called a gorilla.
They call it "common sense", then why is it so uncommon?

I grew up in Eureka, California and the Wallace Bros, who were loggers in the redwood forest area, often left BF tracks along
the logging trails. The story I heard when I was a kid is they were discretely paid by the Eureka Hotel to drum up business.
Every time someone found BF prints in the mud the hotel would fill up with reporters, tourists, and scientist trying to find evidence.
This went on for years. The scientist could not figure out why the foot prints were so big, yet the stride was so close together.
They did not know about the Wallace Bros. If I remember right, they were not tall and probably around five foot ten to five foot eleven.
 
When they finally got caught they did not have to spend any time in jail. They had to pay a heavy fine. When the logging business would go into a recession the temptation
to leave the prints for the hotel was just too great. During that time period, logging was the only industry and if the redwood prices went down enough the mill shut down.
Everyone was affected.

Here is a web page dedicated to finding the big fella.

They have a link for sounds, videos, ect

If they ever do find a Sasquatch, I hope they leave them alone.

Exactly, you can read all about it here.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patterson-Gimlin_film

The stories debunking the video have no more credibility than the ones upholding it.

There is just no way to either prove or disprove the video.

A few red flags are that he was interested in the whole bigfoot thing and wanted to make a movie about it before he ever went out there, but then again it makes sense that he would be go where people reported sightings.

For me, this possibly, but not definitely faked video doesn't outweigh the lack of any other physical evidence.

I lean towards Bigfoot = BS, but I'll still allow for a slim possibility.

Show me a picture (besides the patterson film) show me a skeleton, show me SOMETHING. AFAIAC it's in the same category as the loch ness monster.

Maybe sasquatch is actually Jimmy Hoffa. I found him!

    Want fossil evidents of it's possibility,there you go 1 of several large homnids that walked the planet at some point.

  I'm not saying this is what "bigfoot" is just a possibility,the version supposedly in Viet Nam is reported to be much smaller.

     Wouldnt be the first time a supossed "extinct" animal or "fabled" animal was found to be real!

You keep on saying that Bigfoot is real, but when it comes to proving it you're telling me to go look it up?

Bad form my friend, bad form. If you want to prove Bigfoot's existence to me, you're gonna have to do the research.

Last night on Ancient Aliens they suggested that Bigfoot is an experiment or some kind of criminal put here by ETs.

I'm not your friend. I'm not here convince you of anything. The question  was posed, do you believe it exists. My answer is yes for many reasons, some of which I've stated. When I decided to explore the possibility of Sasquatch,  I put my own time and effort in to researching it and formed my own opinions, none of which proves anything. You are of the opinion a film from 1967 was Photoshoped. That's kind of an indicator to me that you might not get a damn thing no matter how much effort I go to, to explain it. If you honestly want to know it's not hard to find what you're looking for.

Hunters by the 1000s go into the forests of N. America every year. They shoot every kind of game animal out there, including other hunters!...yet not one single Bigfoot body. Not one. It does not exist, the films are either hoaxed or an animal, as are the hair samples, sound samples and eyewitness accounts. The forest is a dark and mysterious place, you hear and see all kinds of things, but its animals, not Sasquatch.

Man has been in the forest for 100,000+ years. Stories past down from generation to generation in every culture results in every kind of legend and myth. Its natural. Its expected in fact. You see a bear or lion, or wolf in the woods that roars at you in the dark, you retell that tale 1000 times? 10,000 times? and you get Sasquatch or some other beast. It was a bear, wolf, ect. Thats it. Its a fish tale.

The ET, Bigfoot, Ghost, Area 51 people get into a circle and tell each other they are real because they want them to be real. Its not science. Its religion. "We beleive" they say...well yes they do...but that doesn't make it (or them) real. I can say the moon is made out of blue cheese....its not? and im supposed to make you prove its not? umm...no. Thats not how its done. Every moon- barking-theorist seems to think we have to disprove their whimsical, and ever more and increasingly bizarre...fantasies, otherwise thats somehow "evidence", again, umm, no.

...I will beleive in Sasquatch when they capture or kill one. Im not expecting the day to arrive any time soon. Actually never to be precise. Same as ETs. Call me when they land and say hi.

If you arent tring to prove anything here then why do you constantly try to tell me why Bigfoot is real? As for the film being photoshopped, I never said it was. I said that anyone could fake a film. Photoshopping it is just an option.

Really? I've constantly told you why it's real? I've made myself pretty clear on what my opinion is and that I'm not here to prove its existence. Pay very close attention, I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK. And yes, you implied the film was Photoshoped.

You've given me the film and your opinions. That's not saying why its real, its saying why you think it's real.

Also if you don't care then why don't you just stop posting.

It would make sense...
