Moderated Continuation: Latest Bigfoot "evidence" Part Two

Aren't there was of cropping, blurring, or masking any images of Chris's family to make identification of them impossible? News programs do this all the time. I think a lot of the amateur video software allows this too.

Yes. Chris can pretend not to understand these things, but no one will believe him. That video he posted before is the sorriest I have ever seen in my life.

Hi Chris, trees are a real thing. They exist. Leaves actually do appear on trees. There is no need to put the word "trees" in scare quotes.

You actually brought a weapon for me on this hike. That's was laughable considering the location and how pedestrian this location was. Not to mention alittle disturbing since we had just meet.

If I were going somewhere I sincerely believed I needed a weapon to defend myself (not to imply I ever have or would, or that I think this is such a case), the last thing I'd do is arm a complete stranger who was going with me.

Does he know how to use a gun? Can I trust him not to shoot the first person who startles him? I would not want to be in a position where I had to explain how some nut got my gun.

You probably wouldn't have to being dead and all.

Oh, honestly, I wasn't thinking of the obvious "give him a gun and he shoots me with it" scenario; more along the lines of a gun being, well, something you want to handle carefully and you don't just hand one to somebody you're meeting for the first time. It's much more likely he'd shoot someone you stumbled across unexpectedly like an idiot than be a thrill killer.

I guess I'm taking the "empty revolver" scene from Tremors to heart.
 
I was passing through and this thread caught my eye.

There are true believers out there and some people have seen something they can't explain, but it appears that the people in the Bigfoot television show don't get paid by how many Sasquatch they actually find.

If the producers of that show were truly serious about finding Bigfoot, they'd pull out all the stops and spend all summer (or all winter or whatever) in a "Squatchy" area. Stay there a couple of months instead of a few days. Flood the woods with trail cameras and FLR. Whenever they see and hear something interesting right now, they can't stay any longer because they're headed somewhere else tomorrow. "Tune in next week!"

If I caught glimpses of a Squatch around my house regularly I'd buy several trail cams and set them out, if only to find out what is really out there. With the budget of a popular TV show it would not be a financial problem to purchase a hundred or more trail cams and set them out. Leave them there. Don't tell anyone. Replace the card every few days and see what's on the card they took out.

Manufacturers might even be persuaded to take a chance and donate cameras to set out. Imagine the advertising copy saying "YOU can own the only trail cam in the world that is good enough to find BIGFOOT!" Rocky Boots and Nike would be in advertising overdrive if someone happened to be wearing their apparel when that person took a clear photo of a Squatch.

Bigfoot is a money maker and they don't want him found because once he's found, the chase is over.

They could stay in one place from now on & put out all of the trail cams & it wouldn't make a difference. You can't find imaginary critters with real devices.

The only "movement" I see is the ever-shifting focus of the camera (I'm not sure if the photographer was deliberately trying to create "movement" by shifting the focus or it was just the camera's autofocus freaking out from all the clutter at different distances)and some panning and zooming. The log, stump or whatever it is that Chris apparently thinks is a bigfoot never moves.

Chris, it's not unusual to think a rock, log or stump is an animal. That's just your brain doing what it's programmed to to. Better to see a leopard that's not there than to miss one that is. However, if it doesn't move after several seconds, that should be a clue.

Good finding Bigfoot strategy, by the way. That would probably work, or rather, it would have worked by now.

I don't imagine the chase pays a tenth of what you'd get with an actual Bigfoot. Sue the T-Rex went for over eight million dollars, and she's merely the best T-Rex skeleton out there. Imagine what a live Bigfoot would be worth to a zoo. Pandas would be nothing to that.

I agree that Bigfooters are demonstrably incompetent at what they're trying to do, but I don't believe the explanation is a real desire to extend the chase.
 
Here is the safety page from the National Park Service on Mammoth Cave area:

They say to bring a flashlight if you are hiking in the late evening. But it again shows proof positive how little outdoor experience someone has with a no-brainer like this. That is a tip for people who have almost no experience.

We use headlamps. Flashlights are a really poor substitute. I probably have eight of them in different coat pockets, the vehicles, hanging on nails by doors, etc.

All you need is to be caught out in the pitch black without a headlamp one time and it is something you won't forget again. It is an especially curious thing that if you fear the dark you don't bring one - but you bring a big gun instead. It's the bigfoot hunter law of backwards.

If you are on a boat, bring an industrial vacuum. If you are riding a bike, put a big chain saw in your backpack. If you are taking the subway, carry a canoe.

It was truly one of the most bizarre situations I've ever experienced in my life and is a great example of Chris's complete irresponsibility as gun owner.

The points you made are exactly what was going thru my head.

I typically carry a weapon when hiking or camping alone, but intened to leave my weapon in my vehicle. But once I realized how busy and accessible this area was I brought it with me out of concern that it could get stolen out of my soft top Jeep.

All I can say is combined with the events of that day and Chris's conduct on this fourm, it's my opnion he has created a fantasy world centered around Bigfoot.

Unfoutunaly he engages in this fantasy while heavily armed and ill equipped to properly interpet his surroundings IMO.

"Hallucinating nine-foot apes" and "heavily armed" just doesn't strike me as a good combination, and I'm pro-Second Amendment.
