Bigfoot: SweatyYeti's confusion of reliable evidence vs proof.

[kitakaze]

I disagree with that, completely.

ALL the pictures, and videos, of men-in-suits that I've ever seen (Edited to add: "ALL the pictures and videos with a fair degree of detail to them...I'm not refering to blobsquatch videos) look obviously, and unambiguously like men-in-suits, including the more elaborate suits.
This would be especially true of a video of a 'm-i-s' which is very clear, sharp, and detailed.
Still pictures are obvious enough...but when a suit is seen in motion, there's simply no doubt whatsoever that it's a walking suit.


One rule to keep in mind, concerning 'Men-in-suits':

Men-in-suits LOOK like Men-in-suits............always.

How is the Harley Hoffman video obviously a man in a suit?

Keep in mind also that there are clear, focused, and detailed photos that are not men in suits that or known hoaxes. One example is the use of miniatures.

But as for still images out there, tell me definitively, Sweaty, how you know this is a man in a suit?:



ETA: Almost forgot, because Patty looks so much like a man in a suit does that mean what looks like a man in a suit is always a man in a suit?

*Bump for Sweaty* Pardon the string of posts.

Some special effects company, took footage of a real gorilla or Bigfoot, and is acting like they built it. I mean don't they know that people can tell a real gorilla when they see one?

It is a gorilla suit, and Animal Makers did build it.

Actually, Bill, I think Drew knew quite well that it was a man in a suit but was making a point about Sweaty's statement that a man in suit always looks like a man in a suit.

Good find, Drew. I suck. I was thinking the gorilla playing the drums that tube linked once but I went with the xenomorph queen because I was too lazy to find it.

That's because you don't have a machine that goes BING!

Even Bigfoot has trouble making a convincing suit.

That is exactly what Chris Walas and Verne Langdon say.
Two expert opinons that state unequivocally that the PGF is a man in a suit.
And not that good of a suit either.

Wouldn't that be the machine that goes "PING!"?

A machine that goes Chinese flatbread?

Ahh yes. There's the monkey. That's oviously a real gorilla channeling Neil Peart there since men in suits always look like men in suits.

Ya. My point was that it looks more like a non-suited creature than Patty, and yet I could still tell it was a suit.

 

[kitakaze]

Of course one would speculate what that suit would look like if it were in Patty's place on the PGF. That suit under the same filming conditions might look pretty interesting.

[nitpick]

That's actually a Phil Collins drum track, not Neal Peart.

[/nitpick]

 

[kitakaze]

As a DJ and music producer I'd feel pretty out of it I didn't know "In the Air Tonight" when I heard it. Collins actually came up with the distintive drum sound while recording "Intruder" for Peter Gabriel and using the reverse talkback on an SSL 4000 mixer. I said Peart because the monkey was banging it large. Nevertheless, I'm prone to the occassional nitpick and that was definitely worth the nitpick.

 

[jhunter1163]

I think babies emerge from the womb knowing "In The Air Tonight". However, your clarification makes perfect sense. Neil does bang it large.

 

[kitakaze]

Ever heard the weird urban legend associated with the song? Eminem even referred to it in one of his tracks.

One thing that bugs me about that suit are the obvious fake and immobile eyes. It's amazing that such an amateurish feature appears on an otherwise great-looking professional suit.

That reminds me, the bear costume used in "A Colbert Christmas: The Greatest Gift of All" also had an interesting mix of realistic and fake-looking features. Considering the show's comedy format, I think they could have easily gotten away with a completely ridiculous-looking suit. Come to think of it, there was a familiar looking feature on the suit's leg/thigh area (not the "bulge"). The fur they used was pretty interesting as well...

I think that Bob Heironimus had said it was made from on old horse hide
or something like that. If i recall correctly, he made this claim.
