Just what the world needs - Another Bigfoot thread

[Belz...]

Nobody cares what fabrications that you pull out of thin air.

Ditto.

Is it legal to kill a bigfoot?
If any ever does kill a bigfoot, I bet it won't be legal for long.

By the way, I just finished an autobiographical book "Tiger of the snows" by Tenzing Norgay.
He was the sherpa on the first Mt. Everest conquest; made it to the top.
In the photo section, there is a picture of women holding a yeti skull. Tenzin mentions Yetis a few times in the tale, but doesn't seem to believe in them, particularly.

No doubt this photo has been mentioned before.
The book was published in 1955

 

[William Parcher]

He had a picture of a woman holding a Yeti skull and yet he still didn't believe? That is the kind of thing that drives Bigfooters crazy.

 

[quarky]

it sort of looks like a coconut shell in the picture, but coconuts are rare in the himalayas.
Tenzing mentioned his father claiming to encounter a yeti. He remains non-commital on the subject in his story. He often mentions the superstitions of other sherpas, and seems intent on rising above it. It helps in the effort to climb Mt. Everest, evidently. No fluff.

 

[TheChadd]

I agree, I really wish these fantasies would be more creative (then again, maybe like Hubbard they'd end up starting a cult), perhaps someone could believe 'pokemon' exist or something.

Oh...you're talking about the "Yeti scalp," aren't you? That was made from the hide of a serow, a (quote) "goat-like Himalayan antelope."

Ive got 4 large amounts of different hair samples from bigfoots if anyone wants to pay for them to be dna tested let me know .
I will give them up for free just to shut some of you up .

 

[kitakaze]

freak,

1) For this solicitation why don't you post pictures of the large amounts of hair.

2) How did you obtain these hair samples?

3) If you think you have bigfoot hair, why haven't you taken it to your nearest university and told them you have bigfoot hair?

4) If you really want to shut us up, why don't you just set out some cans of beans and a screwdriver and when bigfoot shows up you stick him with the harpoon?

ETA: What about the blood?:

We also have hair ,blood and other evidence you can touch .

No, you don't.

 

[zooterkin]

Historian, in case you missed them:

How does man get to be closely related to something which evolved that long before?
Are we descended from bigfoot?
How did bigfoot exist for so long and yet leave no trace?
And, since it has left no trace, on what do you base this claim of 135 million years or existence?
Finally, on what are you basing the claim of the DNA match, since there's been no DNA of bigfoot collected?

 

[Locknar]

So you would not want them tested to confirm/deny "BF", but rather just to shut some of us up?

Is this anything like your "BF" photoshoped pic, your IBW pic, "pyramids" in the bible, inventor of the bungee cord, or any of your other (false) claims?

So when were these hair samples collected, where, how have then been handled since, chain of custody, do these hairs have the roots still in tact, etc.? All of these things would be in the log/diary...that you don't keep; thus any "proof" you might have is totally worthless due to your or carelessness. But you knew this already.

Heck...why stop there? You've claimed "BF" leaves droppings in your yard...how about collecting that and getting it tested? I'd suggest getting a pic, but who really wants to see a pic of "BF" "doing its business" in your yard.

In the end, just more silliness.

Why don't you pay for the DNA testing. If the hair turns out to be actual "bigfoot" hair, you'll make many times over what you paid for the testing. Get it done within two years and you can claim the jref million bucks.


So what's stopping you?

Can you imagine the stir that would cause? The reporters? The exploiters?
I wouldn't want the hassle.

(maybe bigfoot isn't someone you want to betray)

 

[kitakaze]

Another option available to you, freak, is to contact Meldrum about your hair and blood samples. Make sure you get a friend to type for you and don't use the words 'creek' and 'freak'. You never know, that could get the testing done. And please, don't bother with the 'Meldrum might screw me' silliness.

BTW, how did you obtain your blood sample(s)?

Elmer, Continuing with your questions. It would appear that the closer the Bigfoot lives to civilization, then the greater the liklihood that they understand English. They have to be exposed to at least campers and hunters, in order to learn. I have met some that do not have a clue. Some people say that some speak a language that is not English. Some say that they have scribbled in the sand, in Spanish Iberic, which predates the Roman Empire I believe. Bigfoot have families just like us. The kids though, have discipline in their lives, which is almost unheard of in the human world. I doubt that they behave like animals and kick anybody out. There are a lot of single Bigfoot in the forest, however. Just compare the Roe Bigfoot sketch and the Patterson-Gimlin photo, and you can easily see that there are different types. Yeti would also be a different type. I have no idea whether they have multiple births. Bigfoot's most predominant trait, is politeness. For instance, by our standards they have a bad hair day everyday. So they are polite enough that they do not make us look at them on their bad hair days. Yeti are a whole lot different than Bigfoot. Bigfoot are just trying to get along and normally want to be our friends. Yeti tend to be vicious and predatory. Which is why the Australian Government apparently tries to keep their citizens either living in ignorance or in denial.

Wow. When I started reading this thread I thought this post was in jest... I realise this is not the case.

Historian - this is probably futile and almost certainly asked of you before, but (assuming you really do believe this stuff) I have a serious question;

Why, or maybe rather How do you expect other people to believe it? I am sure you have lots of reasons that make sense to you, but surely you can understand that the more outlandish your claims are the more improbable they seem to anyone else? For example if I claimed to talk to leprechauns every night you would (well you certainly should) demand some extrememly convincing proof before you accepted this - right? If I then offered you a picture of my garden and told you it was an invisible leprechaun you'd rightly think I hadn't proved anything.

I'll accept that you truly believe what you say, but its beyond my comprehension why you expect anybody at all, let alone self professed skeptics, to believe what you say. It would be nice if you acknowledged this issue because it seems like you expect everyone to just accept your theories with no evidence at all, the world simply dosen't work that way.

Besides, the leprechauns told me the last bigfoots were wiped out in the fairy war

 

[bencg]

^^ that same question can be answered by any bigfooters here Historian just caught my eye as his claims are even more extreme than the usual cryptozoologist.

 

[kitakaze]

Ho ho... You might have an easier sell with the leprechauns than you think. Burgstahler thinks they're real:

I have spoken with Americans who have spent a summer in Ireland, and they assured me that Leprechauns are quite real.

Kinda changes the humour, doesn't it? Welcome to the board, bencg.

 

[quarky]

As bigfeet become an acknowledged and threatened minority, I suspect they will demand an end to the 'bigfoot' moniker.
Its a bit degrading, really.

Sasquatch is more elegant, and we better get used to it, now that bigfoot has been spotted on mars.

How would you like to be called "bigfoot"?

(besides, new fossil evidence suggests that their feet aren't all that big)

LOL, yeah and I am still having trouble working out who is serious and who is joshing in this thread;

quarky your post I am pretty sure is joking - but only because you put a bigfoot on Mars reference, and now I am not even that sure... This is tough, and sign-posting satire is self defeating, but this board is difficult!

Thanks for the welcome kitakaze

You're very welcome, ben.

Historian is serious. He believes what he says and bases much of his claims on anecdotal evidence and at the same time he'll dismiss a hand written note by a former president of the United States refuting his claims about the president. He'll tell you a work of art is an undebunkable photo of bigfoot and when you provide a link to the artist's website and try to get an explanantion all you'll get from historian is the scared turtle routine.

Creekfreak is also serious and offers similar refusals to acknowledge when his claims have been deflated.

If you see a guy with the handle monstro show up, that would be Jon-Erik Beckjord. He's Neal Burgstahler's (historian) paranormal bigfoot idol whom he simultaneously loathes for the complete dwarfing Beckjord still achieves over Neal in the world of bigfootery weirdness.

Everybody else here is either pitying them, mildly amused by them, or reminding them of the emptiness of their quackery.
