Patterson-Gimlin (Bigfoot) Footage Stabilization
2006-12-07
Nice! Still, I wonder what would Abdominal Snowman say about this shameless exploitation of his aunt's paparazzi shot?

#5  To make a long story short, M. K. Davis has been working his butt off for about three or four years or so trying to enhance, stabilize, and sharpen the Patterson-Gimlin footage, and recently made a public statement to the effect that the subject of the film wasn't an ape or a man in a suit, but some sort of human. He hasn't released all of his observations or anything yet.

Anyway, Coleman (whose site you're linking to) was apparently making some really odd unsubstantiated allegations about Mr. Davis, for which he had later apologized.

I really don't know how it became accepted in the Papparazzi community that we can exist in the wild, undetected by scientists, hunters, anthropologists, random hikers, and whatnot, leaving behind no solid evidence of our existance... but it's controversial to even suggest that my colleagues and I are more than "dumb apes."

There's an old joke in the Bigfoot community, that humans share 90% of their genetic material with chimpanzees... and 50% of their genetic material with cabbage.

Some days the cabbage bits exert their dominance.

#4  I saw a show (it might have been Penn & Teller's Bullshit) the reported on the bigfoot video and showed the large friend who lived down the street from the video owner. The guy had an identical walk. It was pretty convincing.

#1  Fat guy in a suit. He even looks back as if to say "Is this okay? Should I hunch some more?"
