Bigfoot or bear? That does not seem to be the source of most inquiries about this photo any longer. With regard to the most frequent questions heard, they are about why more than one photograph was not taken. The Mt. Hood trailcam owner has forwarded these specifics: The fastest the camera can do is one picture a min. Then it takes a 30 sec. video. They are moition & heat responsive.The camera first takes a picture then about 1-2 seconds it starts a 30 sec. video. The video shows nothing [as] the animal already escaped; we try to put the [...]
Destination Truth: An Unreview
Why have there been no reviews of the June 6th broadcast of “Destination Truth,” which was hosted by Josh Gates? Where are the reviews? Did you see it? For me, it happened right in the middle of a week of activities that centered on my son’s awards assemblies and graduation, so I missed it. Did anyone watch it? The limited, six-episodes of the sixty-minute long series are being carried on the Sci-Fi Channel. It is executive produced by Neil and Michael Mandt for their Mandt Brothers Productions, whose credits include ESPN’s very popular “Jim Rome Is Burning” show. If you [...]
Making the Grade in a Plethora of Titles
Back in 1983, a few people did notice when the book above was published. Otherwise, it won’t be called a classic. Today, it’s good that at least one reviewer is enjoying it so much that he has given me a letter grade for the expanded, updated 2007 edition. When I was in school, I had mixed feelings about getting a high letter grade. What was the teacher trying to tell me? Was I almost perfect or didn’t I say what I wanted to say? Was I above average but not excellent? Was I pretty darned good, but need not get [...]
Otter Nonsense
Otters, of course, are responsible for a few misidentifications of Lake Monsters in bodies of water worldwide. In my The Field Guide to Lake Monsters, Sea Serpents, and Other Mystery Denizens of the Deep (co-authored by Patrick Huyghe), the fact that people do make mistakes when viewing mundane mammals on lakes and lochs is acknowledged. Otters, nevertheless, have never been seen as the root of all Lake Monsters accounts, as seemed to be expressed on CNN’s “Paula Zahn Now” last week by the guest skeptic. Otters are hardly in vogue any longer. Even Bernard Heuvelmans’ theory of the “super-otters,” as [...]
Survey: Almost 60% Say Sasquatch Unsnatchable
The Anomalist today published their analysis of the survey results from 449 people who filled out a web-based questionnaire that took 15 to 30 minutes to complete in March. You can read “Anomalists Are No Longer An Anomaly,” by clicking here. (Note to the survey’s author: In strict research analysis protocol, the questions that were the basis of the analysis should be published as part of the article. The survey, per se, is not visible as an appendix or attachment to this analysis.) First and foremost, these kinds of surveys make me uncomfortable. The survey number is small, and the [...]
New Skamania Tubesquatch
Here’s the latest new Bigfoot video posted on YouTube, forwarded to me by a reader. Gosh, I certainly don’t go looking for these, that’s for sure. Maybe it’s just me, but I am beginning to feel like YouTube’s Sasquatch scenes are a total waste of my time, your time, and any serious researchers’ time. I haven’t seen a video that’s appeared on YouTube initially first (versus those taken from documentaries) that has been worth more than a moment of idle speculation. The visual online world seems to be having an explosion of the cinematic version of one blobsquatch after another. [...]
Women in Bigfoot Studies: Jane Goodall
Yeti or Bigfoot or Sasquatch….I tell you that I’m sure that they exist….I’ve talked to so many Native Americans who all describe the same sounds, two who have seen them. I’ve probably got about, oh, thirty books that have come from different parts of the world, from China from, from all over the place.Dr. Jane Goodall, while being interviewed by Ira Flatow, National Public Radio’s “Science Friday,” September 27, 2002. Of late, while talking about women in Bigfoot studies, I ventured off into writing about women in racing and mentioning briefly Jane Goodall as a woman whose entry into the [...]
The First Bigfoot Porn Film
The first (and hopefully last) graphic, boring, Bigfoot porn film has been discovered. In terms of full disclosure and capturing the total history of cryptocinema, I have to record a mention of this 15 minute film – a 1981 production – The Geek. The director is unknown, the producers are unknown, the writer is unknown, the editor is unknown, and most of the actors are too. One individual, Lynn Holmes, has placed The Geek in her acting credits on the IMDb. Are we to assume she is the woman being sexually violated by Bigfoot in this film? I only know [...]
