Do you think the guys in GA have a bigfoot body?, 2nd round of polling.......... what say you today? Options

[dimeslime]

The creature was found by Matthew Whitton (AKA Gary Parker) and Rick Dyer (residents of Georgia) in the woods in northern Georgia. (The exact location is being kept secret to protect the creatures.)
What's with the alias?

[BobBlue]

I was leaning toward hoax, but after seeing that pic the heads lookfor the most part, different.

[snake5007]

I just tried it and it opened with no problems. Hmmmm.

So did I and I got "service unavailable". The only site I can access is this one.

Yeah, its weird, it almost looks different now.

So to keep a sense of fun, whats your realistic pics for what will happen on Friday?

[wiiawiwb]

Snake....just tried it again after reading your post and it opened just fine for me. I tried it a second and third time with no luck. Weird.

If it isn't a hoax,that costume company will sell a ton of Bigfoot costumes should they decide to mass produce them.

I still can't get cryptomundo. I had it once today for about 3 minutes.

For those just joining the broadcast, here's Crow Logic's find (via Parcher at JREF Forums, big kudos for his find) overlaid by myself, and compiled by Reverend Strone that's probably buried by 16 gigs of forum traffic by now:



Just so those that don't want to read 40 pages just to find out what's up.

[SchlockAroundThe...]

I hope that they do.

But I interviewed Tom Biscardi 18 months ago for a book I'm working on. And he predicted a find soon.

I've posted what he said up on my blog.

Yeah, the company that sells that, needs to rename that costume the Georgia Bigfoot, in order to muscle in on these guys' jig.

LOL

[john54542]

I haven't been able to locate it, but someone told me that after dismissing these guys, Blogsquatcher also alluded to some 'inside' information that turned his opinion around for GA body but now he is backtracking. Can anyone confirm this? I'm just hearing this second hand.

I don't have time to locate it now but I did read the blogsquatcher yesterday and I pretty much read what you are talking about- impressive undisclosed inside information and then an hour or so later they were leaning back the other way.

[snake5007]

Just managed to get seachingforbigfoot.com to let me in. Looks like it's been updated, but the info is the same as what TB stated on FOX.

[Mountainhopper]

I think I'm going to start a new line of Bigfoot freezers and then Start a new Costume Co. .......And become a Millionare.....Muuuhhhaaaa.....Muuuhhaaaa....


Ok I'll stop.....

[GuyInIndiana]

Gosh.. imagine that.

CONsidering Tom has "finds" all the time... I'm not in shock.

Welp, after seeing that I am back to HOAX!

[counselor]

There are two primary elements to this circus that lend weight to the hoax camp.

1) Multiple contradictions and lies by the principals of this event, and

2) If you found a real body, and you wanted scientific validation, it only stands to reason that you would take it to a University (Hell, I'll even settle for a community college!) or a well known scientist who is vocal in this field (It isn't hard to find them - a simple google search would reveal the names of Bindernagel and Meldrum). But, if you wanted something else, say, an unfounded endorsement of someone who knows how to further shoddy claims, then you would call Biscardi, which is exactly what they did.

Nothing would make me happier than to be wrong (well - maybe $10,000,000 might make me happier) but given what I have seen thus far, I'm pretty sure I am right.

[snake5007]

Well, it's bedtime for me. Happy hunting everyone, and I'll see ya tomorrow.

[gfanikf]

In honor of this all I broke out my VHS player and started watching what started it all Secret of the Unknowns starring Edward Mulhare. Schlocky as hell, but I was a kid and watched it over and over again till the tape broke and years later I got a copy on ebay.

Anyone else seen this gem?

Why is it illegal for him to do that again? I must have missed that, why would it be against the law to tell people what you do for a living or to say you were injured doing it?

In Georgia law it was pointed out that a police officer cannot publicly identify themselves as anything but a private civilian over the internet. I assume, knowing quite a number of police officers both local and RCMP, this is for their protection and the protection of others - if it were legal, someone could easily impersonate a police officer and take advantage of others, whether it be getting passwords to accounts, etc. It makes sense the more I think about it because if it is illegal for a police officer to identify themselves on the internet as police officers then any civilian knows that if someone says they are the police and wants information, etc. this person would know that it wasn't an actual officer.

I am still curious as to how this thing will play out, given that they have this press thing planned, and still hold to their story, even though I think its all but been deflated in the minds of most everyone.

I bet when the Georgia boys saw that their exact costume had been found by someone merely sitting behind their keyboard, without ever having to even get up, they must have let out a DOH! that would make Homer Simpson jealous.

[ganglian]

finally got on the cryptomundo site, and was disappointed to see Loren flip-flop yet again. Now he's extremely skeptical, and says
the reason for the "it's the real deal folks!" (not a quote, but the general tone he was putting forth) was to 'play along' with the bad guys.
To me, that's sad - I realize he needs to earn $$$ to fight his IRS battle, and getting millions of hits (and potential book buyers) would go a long way towards that. But at what price to ones integrity? I'll stick to this forum and anomalist.com for my information from now on.

Can we all spell C Y A

[BeansBaxter]

Even if it is all hooey...it's still pretty cool seeing the story on the front page of Foxnews. Got me interested in Bigfootin' again.

[gfanikf]

No love for Secrets of the Unknown.

First, I don't think this is as big of a story as you say "we" do. Second, it obviously is pretty big because this and about 4 other bigfoot websites have had a hard time staying up today. No, not that big of a story, but pretty big nonetheless.

I just checked at Google Trends and 17 of the top 100 searches were bigfoot related, including three of the top ten. I think it showed six of the top twenty earlier this afternoon. I'd say that's significant.

[ganglian]

Now the Bigfoottracker.com site is saying "Service Unavailable".Methinks they know the gig is up...

could be sucking wind like cryptomundo and here due to traffic, or bandwidth

[wickie]

I have to say one thing about you reserchers..... you guys make one hellofa detectives, make some bigger city cops cry with envy. GOOD job folks!!

[Occulus]

I don't have time to locate it now but I did read the blogsquatcher yesterday and I pretty much read what you are talking about- impressive undisclosed inside information and then an hour or so later they were leaning back the other way.

Thanks, I was just making sure someone else got the same impression.

[Saskeptic]

OK, well this is the first opportunity I've had to see their photo - thanks.

So, how heavy did they say their bigfoot carcass was?

And how wide is the freezer?

So how on earth do they expect us to believe that the shoulders of a ___lb bigfoot could fit in that freezer? It looks like the length of the head almost fills the width of the freezer - where the heck are its shoulders??

Somebody please double check my feeble geometry here, but even a relatively skinny bigfoot at 8' tall, 3' wide, and 1' thick occupies 24 cubic feet. (Right?) So, what's the capacity of the freezer? If it's close to 24 cubic feet, then wouldn't the bigfoot corpse pretty much have to have been rendered into a rectangular block to be able to close the lid on the freezer?

[MrDanger]

[john54542]

I really don't know anymore that has already been posted on Cryptomundo or here.

The only photos I have seen are what has been posted. I do not think, or know, that Loren has seen any additional photos.

Cryptomundo is crashing constantly. As soon as we get it back up, it crashes again.

My thoughts are that the photo of the corps in the freezer are very similar to the Sasquatch costume that it has been compared to.

Perhaps it is just a prop, and the real body will be shown in photos Friday? When Dyer was interviewed on the SquatchDetective show, he said that the when the first photos were released, everyone would think they were fake.

Hmmm, something else to think about...

Craig, do you know what the impressive inside information was that had Loren almost convinced? Is that information ever going to appear or is it going to vanish along with the body to avoid embarrassment? I understand if you are not at liberty to say but enquiring minds are going to be wanting to know.

Here is the quote that Loren Coleman made on August 12:
I feel, in all honesty, this, indeed, may be the real deal, and I say this carefully after reviewing information that has been shared privately with me. I cannot say more yet. But people will be very surprised.

Is the lame photo that was leaked what was supposed to be surprising us or is there more?

You stuff it in and jump up and down on it. I saw Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck do it all the time when I was a kid, so I know it can happen.

[moregon]

According to the Sears website, the biggest chest freezer they carry is 24.9 cubic feet. Dimensions, which I believe are the external dimensions, not internal are

Length: 73 1/4 inches
Depth (Front to Back): 29 1/2 inches
Height: 35 inches

Reported Height was 7 feet 8 inches I believe and freezer is 6 feet 1 1/4 inches or about 18 3/4 inches shorter than he is allegedly tall. Does it look like his head is 18 3/4 inches long with a bit over 10 inches of space left in the width?

Anyone know what the actual measurements are of the mask being referred to?

Tease!

I remain hopeful it may be the real deal and if it isn't well thats just how it is.
