I'm guessing hominid, probably the only remaining species we didn't murder/frick out of existence.
It would explain the proposed intelligence, and aversion to homosexual sapiens.
People. An inbred, self isolating tribe of native americans. There is 0 evidence of any apes in north america ever except for humans. At the most bizarre they would be the direct descendants of a group of denisovans or other aboriginal-esque abhumans that lived much longer than their last fossils imply (same thing innit?) but depictions strongly resemble now extinct/impure ethnic groups like ainu and the old pure blooded abbos. They were stocky, with ape-like faces and men and sometimes women could grow enough hair to classify it as a fur coat. Ainu and abbos are both within rafting distance of north america and could have made it across the bering land bridge without archaeologists noticing if they were a particularly stupid tribe and never even made pottery (probably kicked out of their homeland).
>APES DUN FOSSILIZE WELL
And yet we have ancient ape and monkey bones from the more humid south america. None from north america with all its ice and tar pits. Hmmm. Also, every ape skeleton ever found in the woods was human, and the only purported recording of bigfoot speaking sounds like a primitive asiatic language. Bigfoot also demonstrated human-like behaviors in every report. If you found a decomposed bigfoot corpse, it would appear to be nothing more than a man of poor genetic stock.
If we assume every sighting and recording is not a hoax it just looks like people who have been accumulating deformities over the ages. The PGF film was probably fake however, because he bought a custom ape suit, made up a timeline that conflicted with available film developing, and the thing has flat rubber soles and a movement pattern that corresponds with an articulated but ill fitting costume.
What steals human children more enthusiastically than any predator? A human. What could be as smart or nearly as smart as a human? Another human.
As humans breed slowly and kill each other bigfoot is likely extinct.
ok what happens if >we find bigfoot >he looks nothing like the patterson-gimlin film or the skunk ape photos or whatever
what then? On the search for a subspecies or admit you were wrong?
Well, let's see. We just found bigfoot. It's 2024 and only just now we discovered a brand new species of some kind of giant ape hiding right under our noses. If this one bigfoot stayed hidden for so long then I don't think it would be a stretch to say there are other species of big foot that are hiding just as well.
>we get bigfoot >we see he's nothing like the ones on film >which we can already tell >and you believe genuinely that that means the films are real >instead of not real >because it doesn't look like bigfoot
complete. delusion.
Your logic makes no sense. Proving that one type of bigfoot is real wouldn't magically disprove any other type. There's no rule that says there can only be one type of bigfoot in the world. On the contrary, if there is such a thing as a bigfoot you would expect it to have variations.
However, the fact that one bigfoot turned out to be real gives more validity to the other types because it establishes that there is a predecent for undiscovered apes in America. It proves that we don't know everything that's out there. Because if the skeptics are proven wrong about one bigfoot they could be wrong about others too.
This isn't an argument for believing in bigfoot or not, it's just... common sense. Proving that X is real doesn't disprove Y if X and Y are not mutually exclusive.

You find a bigfoot
It looks nothing like the patterson gimli hoax
It proves it is not bigfoot, and was instead a man in a monkey suit (which we already knew)
this is straight forward. this is obvious. to deny it otherwise is complete delusion.
skunk ape always has looked more terrifying when it has the weird cat head instead of just being a generic dumb ape, but of course everyone wants to think it has to be the same thing as a fricking big monkey
based. frick /x/ schizos. bigfoot is a myth created from hobo sightings and the patterson-gimlin hoax.

The 2016 and 2020 elections and their consequences have been a disaster for the human race
So are you saying you believe blacks were selectively bred to commit crime? Pitbull threads are /x/ because its pure fantasy. Its a modern day monster story like werewolves and vampires. Yes, they were bred for crime, but statistically the rate of it is insignificant. Its owners and lying shelters not the breed. Pitbulls are way safer than blacks.
I walked my husky in heat past 2 intact off leash male pitbulls and when they came over to say hello she humped one of them while pibble 2 sniffed his bros face. Its that much of a nothingburger.
>patterson-gimlin hoax.
yeah my man got a 10k suit made for a 30 second clip and got no money out of it, or maybe he made the suit and never profited on his clearly insanely convincing practical effects skills. If that was footage of a gorilla, would you claim that was fake, too?
So if we knew what Bigfoot was then you'd believe the patterson-gimlin footage? >If science had accepted Bigfoot, the footage would be legitimate.
uhh... what if - just hear me out - we got footage of an animal that had been sighted at minimum hundreds of thousands of times BEFORE we had actual scientific confirmation of its existence and the ambiguity that any given piece of non-physical-remains proof means that morons get to dismiss it despite the fact that it makes no sense in any other form?
pic is a statue of a gorilla before it was actually documented by science btw. Did people know about gorilla before it was officially "discovered"?

actually >The famous “Minnesota ice man,” intended to be exhibited in side shows apparently frozen inside a large cake of ice, was a very realistic ape-man constructed by Pete Corrall in April of 1967 for one of these shops. This exhibit completely fooled two very naive zoologists in December of 1968.
funny how the fact that the man who presented the ice man swapped out the body (claimed to) and when the EXACT SAME 2 ZOOLOGISTS examined the new one, they said that it was a forgery. Weird. That's insane. What a coincidence that 2 zoologists id'd a body, then the man swapped it out, and the 2 zoologists said this new one was fake because it was. Huh, weird.

>One problem with almost all the outfits, whatever their cost, is a somewhat unrealistic head and a somewhat unrealistic chest piece. It is notable in Patterson's film that the ape head and chestpiece are not used. The performer in the Patterson film is instead wearing a bushy wig and beard matching the suit, with his eyes, nose and cheeks clearly visible. The performer also appears to be wearing a kind of bulky, diaper-like padding, whose edges show clearly through the outer layer of the suit. A lot of gorilla costumes have “breasts,” as you can see by surfing costume-shop websites, but they don't look realistic, being intended to appear as bare black gorilla-skin. Patterson replaced the chest-piece by adding some fur-covered waterbags. Saline, or silicone, not specified! It makes his Bigfoot look quite feminine, particularly with the fine “bootie" the diaper supplies. [Female apes do not have pendulous breasts like those exhibited by the Patterson suit. Instead they are quite flat-chested. Our hero was apparently inspired to create the set shown by some “eyewitness” sightings of female Bigfeet with huge knockers that he had collected for a book.]
You think it's more realistic that a man would go through the trouble of heavily modifying such a suit when it was at such a far distance? >According to Morris, who was interviewed in 2003, in the summer of 1967 he got a call from Roger Patterson, who said he wanted to purchase a gorilla suit for a “rodeo act.” He bought the $435 suit, and later called to ask how to hide the zippers, extend the arms, and bulk up the shoulders. In October of 1967, Morris had the pleasure of seeing Patterson's footage of his costume on TV.
Weird, I wonder why he waited 35 years to say so? Maybe he needed the pump in business? I'm sure he would have said so at the time if it were true. Literally just "believe my guy instead, lol. Ignore that he benefits monetarily from claiming as much, you have to ignore that."
I do in fact think that a financially desperate fraudster trying to hype up his bigfoot business would modify a suit to match his pre-existing depictions of bigfoot.

Now imagine if i were one of the countless outdoorsmen with 45-61mp pro cameras and 400mm+ lenses… that never seem to get bigfoot pictures when stone age africans were killing smart and elusive chimps and gorillas with short range stone age tools. The stone age NA natives never killed a bigfoot either. They do, however, have a lot of myths that would correspond with people from other tribes using animal skins as camo, and would line up well with the general appearance of hobos.

bigfoot = twice the size or more of gorilla
bigfoot = more meat in diet, more intelligent
native american myths and legends = they have myths and legends that document real events AND they have myths and legends that document spirits and deities and they always list sasquatch/sabe/bigfoot/whatever as... an animal.
you seriously don't even want to admit it's possible? You seriously think that it's completely impossible? Not even a little bit? Did you know there are people that think catamounts (puma panther whatever) don't live north of florida and east of the mississippi? That we "have no proof" of them?

The nail in the coffin for your career as someone taken seriously here was when your dog hate and woman hate started bleeding into your other threads (most likely due to falling behind on meds or drinking alcohol).

You're like Waufs unintentional court jester. You are probably more recognizable than the trucker zoophile or that freaky brazilian that raped his cat.
I guess the "real" "paleoprostitute" you think is behind everything is that poster who said they have your dox and claimed they could confirm you were a medicated schizohprenic. Probably someone who knew you in college. Too bad they probably aren't as in the know as they claimed so they couldn't actually get you institutionalized - or, too bad they were actually an alternate personality of yours.

I wonder if there's someone alive today that unironically believes these specific meme answers. I would give it a non-0 chance. Presumably someone in the US or Canada.
Why do sasquatch never show up in trail cams filming bodies of water? >B-b-b-ut gorillas don't drink water they get their moisture from the plants they eat!
Yeah, in a tropical jungle, not in a boreal forest
you do know that the suspected sasquatch ranges include areas with snow, rainforest (temperate), marsh/swampland, and vast swaths of unmonitored terrain, right? All it takes is the normal ape aversion to new stimulus.
Sasquatch would not live somewhere where human activity is a constant. They'd live somewhere that humans rarely venture to. Especially in our modern age.
I want to fake a cryptid sighting. It can't be that hard to make something convincing if even pic related, a fricking tree branch floating in a lake, fooled so many people for years.
The problem is that everyone has a super high definition camera on them that takes detailed photos. You can hide a lot of shit in grainy out of focus holiday snaps that stand out like a sore thumb in HD.

Escaped/released ape or rogue chimp populations are 600 times more fascinating and cool to think about to me than some giant inter dimensional missing link loner tbh
Or imagine if there was some very small Indian tribe still out there somewhere. There has been some speculation that there might have still been a few isolated groups of Indians out there as late as the 1940's.
Yeah I guess that's part of why I find it interesting, even off grid hidden human populations are fascinating to think about. All that weed mountain, goler clan, forest or sewer bum stuff is fun, but a totally unknown native tribe would be some sentinel island shit innawoods I'd love to see
I think it is an interesting thought experiment. What is more believable or likely, that there is a whole species of unknown primate the size of or bigger than man out there, or that there could be small isolated Indian tribes out there? If one, why not the other? It'd make for good fiction, at least.
>inter dimensional missing link
sasquatch and their ilk would just be north american apes and nothing more. What's with the rampant well poisoning with bigfoot?
>What's with the rampant well poisoning with bigfoot?
Its not "well poisoning" but bigfoot gays, when pressed the astounding lack of anything approaching falsifiable evidence of bigfoot existing will back pedal and squirm before settling on bigfoot being a hyper advanced multidimensional entity.
If the well was poisoned it was because these morons pooped in it.
Well, you're talking to a bigfootgay who is saying there just isn't any unfalsifiable evidence yet because they're sneaky funny ape dudes that are pretty smart. I think there's tons of falsifiable but plausibly not falsified proof, though.
It has to do with certain patterns common to bigfoot sightings that are also very similar to tales of folklore creatures around the northern emisphere that were claimed to be "interdimensional" (whatever it means) and/or shapeshifting
Which makes no sense because bigfoot's cryptic nature is easily explained by its high intelligence, pheromones, and infrasound. The same type of things that gorillas, big cats, and bears use.
This, I always say squatch as "haha funne monkey man in woods so dumb" but he's actually raised enough good points to at least make me open to the possibility of sasquatch existing in remote regions.
I don't believe in Bigfoot but he's a great story teller and does none the less raise good points, such as about the Luska or how we probably mischaracterize the nature of early hominids and how they behaved. I do think that the persistent myths of Bigfoot-like creatures speaks to SOMETHING about the historical human experience.
True, even if sasquatch isn't real, it's neat to think that non-homosexual sapien hominids have etched themselves so deep into our subconscious that myths of them could persist long after they've gone extinct.
I honestly thought sasquatch and hominid cryptids were lame as shit until I saw his channel

There were always the mothmen and jersey devils and that one alien one wearing a dress (you know which one I'm talking about just don't remember it rn) but they were always "what explains these? What animal have we not found yet?" and not "So are they superdimensional hyperghosts or subphysical alien diplomats? Or both?"
Thinkerthunker is a good YouTube channel that does the most for proving existence. Before he figured out the universal ratios of body parts it was harder to prove some hoaxes. Before that to actually believe you had to be one of the knowers.
Theres this canadian hunting guide with a YT channel that got frequently asked if he knew anything about bigfoot, so he shared an encounter on the channel. After that people started sending in mails and he started reading them on YT and that turned into thousands of people sending in experiences that he keeps reading on video. Most of them are pretty consistent in describing behaviours, characteristics and appearance.
Here's one where he talks about his own encounter
yes, yes, everyone knows everything could be fabricated. You aren't telling us anything new. Consider, for a moment, though: What if it's NOT a giant conspiracy to fabricate these stories?
Yeah theres just thousands of people that make up shit to humour this guy. Makes sense. Also lore from pretty much every tribe in north america.
Theres quite a few photos, prints, hair and tree structures out there too, but people that have never been more than a dayhike from a city will dismiss all of that as hoaxes.
>Hoax >Person who made it was an unidentified woman who just sent an inquiry to a local police asking if someone lost a monkey
If you're trying to make a hoax that's not how you do it
Except most hoaxers do this for attention, and there'd be no guarantee that the police would ever release the photographs. And if they found out it was a hoax, you run the risk of legal trouble.
Again, if you wanted to do that it would be significantly easier to just mail the photos to a bunch of newspapers and tv stations.One would be guaranteed to bite and share the photos.

That sounds like a lot more work than just mailing it to one police station.

Except, again, the police station is extremely unlikely to ever release the photos in the first place. Also "a lot of work" if you think it's a hoax you think they would spend probably weeks on creating the costume and the photo and then decide "mailing" is too difficult?

When and how was the photo released anyway?

I'd imagine they purchased a costume or prop. It may not be a costume but a set prop for a display exhibit.

The infamous Dogman Gable film hoax was pretty much that.
Fair but does that explain ALL the sightings? Short answer is no, no matter what your stance on bigfoot is. It's bizarre that bigfoot is SO strongly attested throughout the entirety of human occupation of North America.
A lot of people lie, misidentify hobos and bears, or do drugs.
Humans are extremely dumb, though. We are very good at making and using tools as well as communication, but in all other respects we have almost no natural aptitude. It's what happens when you have several hundred generations of sedentary farmers.
>le humans are dumb
I recognize you. You are an idiot and a schizo. Go back to your veganism thread.
>A lot of people lie, misidentify hobos and bears, or do drugs.
It's really disingenuous when you claim that every single report, photograph, and video is just misidentification or fraud when in almost all cases the lengths one would have to go to for fraud are absurd.
Like the Bigfoot train video.
No amount of evidence is good enough, it's always "BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN FAKED". Use those same arguments against, say, the Moon Landings and they call you a conspiracy theorist. >so what is it
We don't know. That's what's fun about it.

Quit trolling. Something something "outside of /b/"
I used to enjoy Bob's videos as a non.believer because i thought he was very reasonable about his views and his narration made the stories very entertaining, but recently he lost me because he went full schizo and started saying that sasquatch are smarter than humans and that the government hides them from people
>sasquatch are smarter than humans
They are, so are chimpanzees. If a Chimp doesnt want to be found in the jungle you wont find it but he'll be watching you.
This isnt book smarts but nature related intelligence. >government hides them from people
They do, If apes were found to be in the North American woods it would the sell of lumber and cost a fortune in conservation and research. The government cares about money not ethics.
Many chimp bands that have encountered bushmeat hunters have adapted by becoming nocturnal. They see the Black folk in the dark but the Black folk don't see them
I've seen videos of Africans hunting those very same chimps at night. They find out where the chimps sleep, wait until moonless nights, then sneak up on them with torches and bows and arrows. Chimps are smart but neither they nor any other animal have a chance against humans. Remember that we were the dominant species, traveling from continent to continent hunting other animals to extinction, tens of thousands of years before we had even developed something as basic as agriculture.
Though to be fair you don't have tribes in the US doing it and if you did they'd be much braver considering bigfoot is at least 3x bigger than a chimp and arguably more intelligent.
Humans are extremely dumb, though. We are very good at making and using tools as well as communication, but in all other respects we have almost no natural aptitude. It's what happens when you have several hundred generations of sedentary farmers.
>What was it?
best example of the mass schizophrenia that exists in the us
Explain
What would hugetoes even be if they were real? A pongoid? a hominin/missing link? a ghost lineage of non-apes? new world version of apes?
I'm guessing hominid, probably the only remaining species we didn't murder/frick out of existence.
It would explain the proposed intelligence, and aversion to homosexual sapiens.
People. An inbred, self isolating tribe of native americans. There is 0 evidence of any apes in north america ever except for humans. At the most bizarre they would be the direct descendants of a group of denisovans or other aboriginal-esque abhumans that lived much longer than their last fossils imply (same thing innit?) but depictions strongly resemble now extinct/impure ethnic groups like ainu and the old pure blooded abbos. They were stocky, with ape-like faces and men and sometimes women could grow enough hair to classify it as a fur coat. Ainu and abbos are both within rafting distance of north america and could have made it across the bering land bridge without archaeologists noticing if they were a particularly stupid tribe and never even made pottery (probably kicked out of their homeland).
>APES DUN FOSSILIZE WELL
And yet we have ancient ape and monkey bones from the more humid south america. None from north america with all its ice and tar pits. Hmmm. Also, every ape skeleton ever found in the woods was human, and the only purported recording of bigfoot speaking sounds like a primitive asiatic language. Bigfoot also demonstrated human-like behaviors in every report. If you found a decomposed bigfoot corpse, it would appear to be nothing more than a man of poor genetic stock.
If we assume every sighting and recording is not a hoax it just looks like people who have been accumulating deformities over the ages. The PGF film was probably fake however, because he bought a custom ape suit, made up a timeline that conflicted with available film developing, and the thing has flat rubber soles and a movement pattern that corresponds with an articulated but ill fitting costume.
What steals human children more enthusiastically than any predator? A human. What could be as smart or nearly as smart as a human? Another human.
As humans breed slowly and kill each other bigfoot is likely extinct.
ok what happens if
>we find bigfoot
>he looks nothing like the patterson-gimlin film or the skunk ape photos or whatever
what then? On the search for a subspecies or admit you were wrong?
Well, let's see. We just found bigfoot. It's 2024 and only just now we discovered a brand new species of some kind of giant ape hiding right under our noses. If this one bigfoot stayed hidden for so long then I don't think it would be a stretch to say there are other species of big foot that are hiding just as well.
complete delusion. you'll believe every report of intergalactic ghost monkey people you hear.
>okay moron what happens if bigfoot is literally proven to be real? would you believe in it?
>Yeah I guess so
>AHAHAHAHA YOU ARE DELUSIONAL
>we get bigfoot
>we see he's nothing like the ones on film
>which we can already tell
>and you believe genuinely that that means the films are real
>instead of not real
>because it doesn't look like bigfoot
complete. delusion.
Your logic makes no sense. Proving that one type of bigfoot is real wouldn't magically disprove any other type. There's no rule that says there can only be one type of bigfoot in the world. On the contrary, if there is such a thing as a bigfoot you would expect it to have variations.
However, the fact that one bigfoot turned out to be real gives more validity to the other types because it establishes that there is a predecent for undiscovered apes in America. It proves that we don't know everything that's out there. Because if the skeptics are proven wrong about one bigfoot they could be wrong about others too.
This isn't an argument for believing in bigfoot or not, it's just... common sense. Proving that X is real doesn't disprove Y if X and Y are not mutually exclusive.
>Proving that one type of bigfoot is real wouldn't magically disprove any other type.
You /x/ schizos are all the same. You come up with any excuse you can to justify your belief in aliens, dinosaurs, and ghosts. And bigfoot, which is somehow related to all of them.
Complete. Delusion.
Non sequitur.
If we found a bigfoot it would completely disporve the patterson gimlin hoax.
>disporve
How?
You find a bigfoot
It looks nothing like the patterson gimli hoax
It proves it is not bigfoot, and was instead a man in a monkey suit (which we already knew)
this is straight forward. this is obvious. to deny it otherwise is complete delusion.
I like the second photo better than the first
skunk ape always has looked more terrifying when it has the weird cat head instead of just being a generic dumb ape, but of course everyone wants to think it has to be the same thing as a fricking big monkey
Probably some kind of monkey
I think it is possible that sasquatch are real, but i wont be 100% convinced until there's one in a cage
I am literally only replying to say that this is a fair stance.

Yes, they were bred for crime, but statistically the rate of it is insignificant. Its owners and lying shelters not the breed. Pitbulls are way safer than blacks.

yeah my man got a 10k suit made for a 30 second clip and got no money out of it, or maybe he made the suit and never profited on his clearly insanely convincing practical effects skills. If that was footage of a gorilla, would you claim that was fake, too?
No, because people knew what gorillas were at that time, fricking tard.
So if we knew what Bigfoot was then you'd believe the patterson-gimlin footage?
>If science had accepted Bigfoot, the footage would be legitimate.
uhh... what if - just hear me out - we got footage of an animal that had been sighted at minimum hundreds of thousands of times BEFORE we had actual scientific confirmation of its existence and the ambiguity that any given piece of non-physical-remains proof means that morons get to dismiss it despite the fact that it makes no sense in any other form?

funny how the fact that the man who presented the ice man swapped out the body (claimed to) and when the EXACT SAME 2 ZOOLOGISTS examined the new one, they said that it was a forgery. Weird. That's insane. What a coincidence that 2 zoologists id'd a body, then the man swapped it out, and the 2 zoologists said this new one was fake because it was. Huh, weird.

damn most of the fossil record is fake then
most of the fossil record is explicitly defined with real bones. they do tell you which parts they found and which parts are theoretical. there are also complete skeletons of feathered theropods showing us a change in kinds in real time which we can recreate by analyzing crocodile and chicken genomes. go back to school.
you're ignoring all the inbetweens, which is what's important here. We have very few ape bones period. That's inarguable - if there were some new ape found in Africa (like the bili ape, as much of just a chimp as it is was, or like that new species of orangutan defined recently...) you wouldn't have any problem with there being no fossils, nor bones recovered.

Shoot bigfoot and we’ll talk. Africans were killing and eating chimps, gorillas, and “bili apes” (just a race of chimps) before any white man saw them. Why no native americans with bigfoot bones? We have IR cameras and DNA analysis. Where bigfoot?
>he magic
>>>/x/
>One problem with almost all the outfits, whatever their cost, is a somewhat unrealistic head and a somewhat unrealistic chest piece. It is notable in Patterson's film that the ape head and chestpiece are not used. The performer in the Patterson film is instead wearing a bushy wig and beard matching the suit, with his eyes, nose and cheeks clearly visible. The performer also appears to be wearing a kind of bulky, diaper-like padding, whose edges show clearly through the outer layer of the suit. A lot of gorilla costumes have “breasts,” as you can see by surfing costume-shop websites, but they don't look realistic, being intended to appear as bare black gorilla-skin. Patterson replaced the chest-piece by adding some fur-covered waterbags. Saline, or silicone, not specified! It makes his Bigfoot look quite feminine, particularly with the fine “bootie" the diaper supplies. [Female apes do not have pendulous breasts like those exhibited by the Patterson suit. Instead they are quite flat-chested. Our hero was apparently inspired to create the set shown by some “eyewitness” sightings of female Bigfeet with huge knockers that he had collected for a book.]
You think it's more realistic that a man would go through the trouble of heavily modifying such a suit when it was at such a far distance?
>According to Morris, who was interviewed in 2003, in the summer of 1967 he got a call from Roger Patterson, who said he wanted to purchase a gorilla suit for a “rodeo act.” He bought the $435 suit, and later called to ask how to hide the zippers, extend the arms, and bulk up the shoulders. In October of 1967, Morris had the pleasure of seeing Patterson's footage of his costume on TV.
Weird, I wonder why he waited 35 years to say so? Maybe he needed the pump in business? I'm sure he would have said so at the time if it were true. Literally just "believe my guy instead, lol. Ignore that he benefits monetarily from claiming as much, you have to ignore that."
I do in fact think that a financially desperate fraudster trying to hype up his bigfoot business would modify a suit to match his pre-existing depictions of bigfoot.

This will be your only response from here on out. Reply again and confirm you’re an idiot. I am going to grab my leica and go enjoy some street photography. Its 61mp and detailed enough that i can get clear images with 4x digital zoom. Now imagine if i were one of the countless outdoorsmen with 45-61mp pro cameras and 400mm+ lenses… that never seem to get bigfoot pictures when stone age africans were killing smart and elusive chimps and gorillas with short range stone age tools. The stone age NA natives never killed a bigfoot either. They do, however, have a lot of myths that would correspond with people from other tribes using animal skins as camo, and would line up well with the general appearance of hobos.

bigfoot = twice the size or more of gorilla
bigfoot = more meat in diet, more intelligent
native american myths and legends = they have myths and legends that document real events AND they have myths and legends that document spirits and deities and they always list sasquatch/sabe/bigfoot/whatever as... an animal.
you seriously don't even want to admit it's possible? You seriously think that it's completely impossible? Not even a little bit? Did you know there are people that think catamounts (puma panther whatever) don't live north of florida and east of the mississippi? That we "have no proof" of them? That any footage of them coming out of georgia, florida, kentucky, etc are labeled misidentified bobcasts or coyotes? Did you know that it's because the US government and logging/land dev companies benefit from them not officially being there? Did you know that this is also the case for the territories that bigfoot is claimed to roam?
You can make up insanely unlikely events and say it HAS to be real because the only alternative is bigfoot being real. So... Bigfoot could be real, because the alternative is ludicrously unlikely.

Except for the europeans witnessing the same thing, and that the natives didn't delude themselves about what they were? Why only bigfoot, huh? Why is it we never hear about mothman or frogman or the jersey devil like this? Just the one cryptid? Oh, I guess terrorbirds too, but those are just teratorn vultures that were preserved through oral tradition. Weird how something that went extinct thousands of years ago is entered into myth as a mythical creature but sasquatch is considered an animal with no special traits other than being scary and dangerous.

Yes you always say that. To everyone.
Did it ever occur to you that you a recognizable and repetitive shitposter and people post these things just to watch you dance? The nail in the coffin for your career as someone taken seriously here was when your dog hate and woman hate started bleeding into your other threads (most likely due to falling behind on meds or drinking alcohol). 'Twas about when you picked up your habit of calling everyone you disagree with "woman" and typing some angry incel shit that makes it sound like you literally seethe while posting (hilarious). You're like Waufs unintentional court jester. You are probably more recognizable than the trucker zoophile or that freaky brazilian that raped his cat.
I guess the "real" "paleoprostitute" you think is behind everything is that poster who said they have your dox and claimed they could confirm you were a medicated schizohprenic. Probably someone who knew you in college. Too bad they probably aren't as in the know as they claimed so they couldn't actually get you institutionalized - or, too bad they were actually an alternate personality of yours.
Now go make another dog hate, dinosaur, woman hate, christianity, veganism, etc thread. Some of yours have 404'd already. Don't forget to say your catchphrases, like buttsniffers and "xu xing did this".
I don’t think he’s the annoying vegan who has the exact same thread over and over again. He might be the christ schizo. He’s definitely one of the bigger dog hating redditors.

>Sasquatch has always been a spirit. Literally hallucinating indians eating weird cacti and shrooms.
Sasquatch is an interdimensional creature.
you do know that the suspected sasquatch ranges include areas with snow, rainforest (temperate), marsh/swampland, and vast swaths of unmonitored terrain, right? All it takes is the normal ape aversion to new stimulus.
Sasquatch would not live somewhere where human activity is a constant. They'd live somewhere that humans rarely venture to. Especially in our modern age.
I want to fake a cryptid sighting. It can't be that hard to make something convincing if even pic related, a fricking tree branch floating in a lake, fooled so many people for years.

Yeah I guess that's part of why I find it interesting, even off grid hidden human populations are fascinating to think about. All that weed mountain, goler clan, forest or sewer bum stuff is fun, but a totally unknown native tribe would be some sentinel island shit innawoods I'd love to see
I think it is an interesting thought experiment. What is more believable or likely, that there is a whole species of unknown primate the size of or bigger than man out there, or that there could be small isolated Indian tribes out there? If one, why not the other? It'd make for good fiction, at least.
>inter dimensional missing link
sasquatch and their ilk would just be north american apes and nothing more. What's with the rampant well poisoning with bigfoot?
>What's with the rampant well poisoning with bigfoot?
Its not "well poisoning" but bigfoot gays, when pressed the astounding lack of anything approaching falsifiable evidence of bigfoot existing will back pedal and squirm before settling on bigfoot being a hyper advanced multidimensional entity.
If the well was poisoned it was because these morons pooped in it.
Well, you're talking to a bigfootgay who is saying there just isn't any unfalsifiable evidence yet because they're sneaky funny ape dudes that are pretty smart. I think there's tons of falsifiable but plausibly not falsified proof, though.
It has to do with certain patterns common to bigfoot sightings that are also very similar to tales of folklore creatures around the northern emisphere that were claimed to be "interdimensional" (whatever it means) and/or shapeshifting
Which makes no sense because bigfoot's cryptic nature is easily explained by its high intelligence, pheromones, and infrasound. The same type of things that gorillas, big cats, and bears use.
oh that's Gomer. he lives down the street.
swamp gas
Are there any good tv shows about bigfoot or other cryptids?
No. Every single one of them is shit. I'm not being sarcastic either.
No, but Bob Gylman's channel on Youtube is kino
This, I always say squatch as "haha funne monkey man in woods so dumb" but he's actually raised enough good points to at least make me open to the possibility of sasquatch existing in remote regions.
I don't believe in Bigfoot but he's a great story teller and does none the less raise good points, such as about the Luska or how we probably mischaracterize the nature of early hominids and how they behaved. I do think that the persistent myths of Bigfoot-like creatures speaks to SOMETHING about the historical human experience.
True, even if sasquatch isn't real, it's neat to think that non-homosexual sapien hominids have etched themselves so deep into our subconscious that myths of them could persist long after they've gone extinct.
I honestly thought sasquatch and hominid cryptids were lame as shit until I saw his channel
Cryptids are unironically at their best when you divorce the supernatural from them
>Cryptids are unironically at their best when you divorce the supernatural from them
it's weird that people seem to inexorably link them. When I was younger, even the outlandish ones were always "Could plesiosaurs still be alive? Could giant sharks still be alive? Could the missing link still be alive? Could giant snakes still be alive? Could ground sloths still be alive?" and I mean that's STILL what it is on youtube or whatever. There were always the mothmen and jersey devils and that one alien one wearing a dress (you know which one I'm talking about just don't remember it rn) but they were always "what explains these? What animal have we not found yet?" and not "So are they superdimensional hyperghosts or subphysical alien diplomats? Or both?"

If you understand spanish.
Thinkerthunker is a good YouTube channel that does the most for proving existence. Before he figured out the universal ratios of body parts it was harder to prove some hoaxes. Before that to actually believe you had to be one of the knowers.
Theres this canadian hunting guide with a YT channel that got frequently asked if he knew anything about bigfoot, so he shared an encounter on the channel. After that people started sending in mails and he started reading them on YT and that turned into thousands of people sending in experiences that he keeps reading on video. Most of them are pretty consistent in describing behaviours, characteristics and appearance.
Here's one where he talks about his own encounter
>hunting guide
>didnt shoot bigfoot, gun or camera
>after hearing others people imitate prior stories for attention
attention whoax
yes, yes, everyone knows everything could be fabricated. You aren't telling us anything new. Consider, for a moment, though: What if it's NOT a giant conspiracy to fabricate these stories?
>it lives in the USA
>no one has shot it
I don't believe it
if only americans were as american as foreignors believed we were...
Yeah, I love how we live rent free in their heads though.
Yeah theres just thousands of people that make up shit to humour this guy. Makes sense. Also lore from pretty much every tribe in north america.
Theres quite a few photos, prints, hair and tree structures out there too, but people that have never been more than a dayhike from a city will dismiss all of that as hoaxes.
Looks like a pongo
uh oh
stinky
A hoax
>Hoax
>Person who made it was an unidentified woman who just sent an inquiry to a local police asking if someone lost a monkey
If you're trying to make a hoax that's not how you do it
That's exactly how you do it.
Except most hoaxers do this for attention, and there'd be no guarantee that the police would ever release the photographs. And if they found out it was a hoax, you run the risk of legal trouble.
>Except most hoaxers do this for attention
Most, yes. Some people spread bs just for fun.
Again, if you wanted to do that it would be significantly easier to just mail the photos to a bunch of newspapers and tv stations.One would be guaranteed to bite and share the photos.
>Again, if you wanted to do that it would be significantly easier to just mail the photos to a bunch of newspapers and tv stations.
That sounds like a lot more work than just mailing it to one police station.
Except, again, the police station is extremely unlikely to ever release the photos in the first place. Also "a lot of work" if you think it's a hoax you think they would spend probably weeks on creating the costume and the photo and then decide "mailing" is too difficult?
>the police station is extremely unlikely to ever release the photos in the first place.
When and how was the photo released anyway?
>Also "a lot of work" if you think it's a hoax you think they would spend probably weeks on creating the costume and the photo and then decide "mailing" is too difficult?
I'd imagine they purchased a costume or prop. It may not be a costume but a set prop for a display exhibit.
If they purchased it then where did they purchase it from though and why has nobody else ever found it
The infamous Dogman Gable film hoax was pretty much that.
Most hoaxers shitpost anonymously on Wauf.
Yeah I mean imagine there’s people out there who shitpost totally anonymous just for the lulz…
Fair but does that explain ALL the sightings? Short answer is no, no matter what your stance on bigfoot is. It's bizarre that bigfoot is SO strongly attested throughout the entirety of human occupation of North America.
A lot of people lie, misidentify hobos and bears, or do drugs.
>le humans are dumb
I recognize you. You are an idiot and a schizo. Go back to your veganism thread.
>A lot of people lie, misidentify hobos and bears, or do drugs.
It's really disingenuous when you claim that every single report, photograph, and video is just misidentification or fraud when in almost all cases the lengths one would have to go to for fraud are absurd.
Like the Bigfoot train video.
No amount of evidence is good enough, it's always "BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN FAKED". Use those same arguments against, say, the Moon Landings and they call you a conspiracy theorist.
>so what is it
We don't know. That's what's fun about it.
>even the YouTube comments, one of the most brainrotted lots of the internet, agree it's faek and gaey
Quit trolling. Something something "outside of /b/"
Stinky squatch
me. it was me.
I used to enjoy Bob's videos as a non.believer because i thought he was very reasonable about his views and his narration made the stories very entertaining, but recently he lost me because he went full schizo and started saying that sasquatch are smarter than humans and that the government hides them from people
>sasquatch are smarter than humans
They are, so are chimpanzees. If a Chimp doesnt want to be found in the jungle you wont find it but he'll be watching you.
This isnt book smarts but nature related intelligence.
>government hides them from people
They do, If apes were found to be in the North American woods it would the sell of lumber and cost a fortune in conservation and research. The government cares about money not ethics.
>chimps are smarter than people and cant be found if they dont want to be found
>but they get hunted for food by africans
Rightoids?
Many chimp bands that have encountered bushmeat hunters have adapted by becoming nocturnal. They see the Black folk in the dark but the Black folk don't see them

Palatable irony.

I've seen videos of Africans hunting those very same chimps at night. They find out where the chimps sleep, wait until moonless nights, then sneak up on them with torches and bows and arrows. Chimps are smart but neither they nor any other animal have a chance against humans. Remember that we were the dominant species, traveling from continent to continent hunting other animals to extinction, tens of thousands of years before we had even developed something as basic as agriculture.
Though to be fair you don't have tribes in the US doing it and if you did they'd be much braver considering bigfoot is at least 3x bigger than a chimp and arguably more intelligent.
Humans are extremely dumb, though. We are very good at making and using tools as well as communication, but in all other respects we have almost no natural aptitude. It's what happens when you have several hundred generations of sedentary farmers.
