Scott, GREAT video! Anything that's entertaining that is about Bigfoot (that I can get my wife to watch and like) is definitely worth it! Kudos.

How 'bout a sequel? Are you working on one? Ian

Ian, thanks for the kind words.

The last few years I've done documentaries on different topics...two of which have a bit of a Bigfoot connection.

Two years ago, I did one on the Pacific Crest Trail and those who attempt it each year.... "Walk" documentary. Of course, during the interviews, I would occasionally ask hikers if they had heard any unusual sounds or seen anything odd, and, as it turned out, this one guy who hiked the trail in '77 had a great Bigfoot-related story that happened to him in Northern California (near the NE edge of the Trinity Wilderness area). Part of the story involves him finding a print which, imho, is one of the best looking ones I've ever seen (found quite aways from any roads and just up and off the trail). Anyway, his interview, and that photo are in "Walk". I shot and I'm currently editing a follow-up to "Walk" and encountered another hiker from the '70's who had a strange tale to tell as well...this time on the Eagle Creek Trail (a scenic alternative route to the PCT) up in Northern Oregon. Last year, I shot a documentary about one-of-a-kind roadside attractions around the U.S. called
"This Exit Only" Roadside Attractions documentary

But to, finally (following that blatant ad ) answer your question concerning any future Bigfoot-related projects...I'm not sure. Still love the topic. I'll let you know if I decide to. Take care and thanks again.

I wrote a review of this very funny DVD documentary here: http://www.geocities.com/giantape20042000/...squatchdom.html Enjoy.

And Henry, thanks to you as well.

He is still a puppy, Jaylee! Give him a year.. or two... or four, and he will settle down ) Sammi did.

I sent her for training at the local prison. We have an inmate training thing here... a month with your dog and she will be returned obedient and submissive.... I truly thought Sam was dumb when we got her, because she didnt do a THING I asked of her.

I got a call a week into her training.. "Your dog is brilliant.. one of the smartest hounds I have ever encountered. She is also the most STUBBORN bitch I have ever seen. She knows exactly what you want her to do.. she just chooses not to do it!"

Looks like more to add to my list of future DVD purchases. I take it there aren't any stills floating around right now?

No problem, Scott. I just watched the DVD the other day for like the fifth time, and I absolutely love it!!! I would definitely recommend getting the double-DVD so you can see both documentaries. They are both so well-crafted and very funny.

I still sell 'em at Squatching/Journey Toward Squatchdom but I'm going to be shutting down that site at the end of the year and just sell them on Amazon and Ebay for awhile. There are some stills at the site. If you want to order from there, just order as if ordering "Squatching" and I'll still send you one of the new DVD's with both "Squatching" and "Journey Toward Squatchdom" on it. It's a little bit cheaper at my site.

I've spent some time examining Scott's video and think it is just plain freaky! His video is well worth the cost and if you don't own it you should. Besides the squatch footage the video is just downright funny.

Yetifan,

I only saw your footage once on tv, many many moons ago. Unfortunately, I walked in as the program was playing, and I never recorded it. I don't even remember what the program was. I seem to recall that i thought i could see eyes very clearly. Anyway, i saw the still from your video that DDA posted over on the Cryptomundo site and was fascinated by it. (I don't think this was part of the footage I saw.) I played around with the image trying to see what it might look like if the leaves and things weren't blocking the view. Would it be okay with you if I posted these here? This is definitely nothing scientific,...mostly speculation, but I think it does help show that the object that looks like an eye could very well be an eye. Thanks.

No problem peilitch.

Yetifan,
Thank you very much sir. First, here's the still that DDA posted.

Next, I lightened up the photo and changed the hues to see if I could make out any other details. This is what I used.

Here, I've outlined and dotted in red the places where there appears to be feature lines and shade gradation of feature contours. There was a darker line where the mouth might (?) be. I then outlined the places where foliage appears to be blocking features in purple. The question marks by the "forehead" are there because I can't tell if the really bright area is forehead or more brightly lit foliage. I made it so the upper portion of the forehead was part of the subject.

oops, let's try that again....

Then, using what can be seen as a guide, I guesstimated what might not be seen. Much is pure speculation, but the left eye (it's right eye), cheekbone and cheek area are mainly untouched. Here's one with a more human-like nose.

...and here's one with a semi-simian nose. Mostly just for grins and giggles, but as you can see, that "eye" could definitely be an eye.

Thanks for the screen captures and enhancements Peiltch......

With regards to the right "eye", there are a lot of similar items dotted around the picture.

Anybody considered that Yetifan 'migh't be pulling our legs and that the whole thing was made up just for a laugh, or other??

What about the one circled in red?

nope

Woodshadow, I agree with you here. Having actually been there when the video was shot, with what DDA has outlined I don't see how we could have missed it since we were no more than 40 ft. away...since it appears to be in front of where the actual eyes are (we saw these sway back and forth for close to ten minutes and are in the dark portion of that still). When Rick initially showed me what he saw at the Pennsylvania conference, I was truly impressed and, of course, willing to listen carefully since I respect his opinion. But after looking at it several times since, I think what is outlined is is not what was seen several minutes later (head and shoulder). Anywho, I do appreciate DDA's efforts with this.

FootDude....You're welcome.

Woodshadow....I see the similar black and white spots as well, but to me, only this one looks like an eye. (actually, REALLY looks like an eye.)

Lyndon....not knowing the man at all, yes, I have considered the possibility. However, I recall when I saw the program, my impression was it was legitimate.

JayleeD....looks like a blob to me.

Yetifan....I can't make any claims about what is in this frame, other than that the object that looks like an eye, to me, REALLY looks like an eye. That obviously doesn't mean it is. As I said, this was mainly done for kicks.

Hey...just opening up the 'possibilty' that Yetifan isn't on the level. After all....he seems to be doing his own disecting of 'other' people's footage. Who is to say that Yetifan isn't yanking all our chains and out for a few extra bucks himself?

I must add that I'm not claiming anything...just measuring it by what all other such similar claims are measured against.

Lyndon, you're so pathetic, dude...


You get called on something in the Patterson thread, then suddenly come over here and suddenly cast aspersions on nothing more than you getting called over there.

Grow up, dude.

Duh, I came here a few days ago......to no avail.

What is good for the gander is good for you mate.

Dont like it...tough.

Who is to say that YOU aren't yankjng our chains? After all...you aren't exactly GIVING your video away for free are you? You are making a tiny profit from it by talking about it and spreading the word arent you?

Er...what exactly did I get 'called' on? I don't remember getting 'called' on anything. In fact I was merely pointing out YOUR double standards and hypocrisy.

dude, you are truly losing it....


take a chill pill..

OK, that's enough. This is getting way to personal.

The thread will be reopened when people have the chance to cool down a bit. Maybe.

This thread is being reopened. Please try to keep from exchanging personal jabs and try to keep on topic. Thank you.

Having seen the still and seen the video footage, I have to say that the still really doesnt do the video justice. When you watch the video, you really do get the impression that you are looking at a pair of eyes. I wonder if there is any way to make a composite of several frames in order to bring out more detail, of if that would just make a big muddled mess.

ohio_squatcher

peiltch & Yetifan. First off my apologies, It wasn't until this thread got locked I read it over & realised I did something I try not to do - comment on a thread I have not read properly. I didn't notice I was looking at a frame from a sequence - my bad (I made a gut reaction on peiltch's "eye" commemts). Also, peiltch in looking over your posted pic again, I notice that the eye you point out seems "inverted" compared to the other similar objects, so it is "different". Not sure if this means anything or not. Carry on .

I remember seeing this video several years back on TV. It kinda gave me the hibba-jibbas. You do get a feeling as if there is something looking back through the shadows......

Cool stuff Yetifan...

Scott,

I purchased both of your DVD's at the East Coast Conference and enjoy watching them very much. Josh and myself enjoyed meeting you. Keep up the good work!

Woodshadow,
No need to apologize, there was nothing offensive in your original post. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and your first observation could very well be correct. Also, i think it would be more accurate to say that DDA pointed out the possible "eye" and face...I just used the same frame that he had already noted the features on.

I have seen this to, since Scott was at our groups conference.

It was a very interesting video, and i remember Rick and you looking at it on your laptop...........

It was nice meeting you there scott and i enjoed talking to you the night before and later on downstairs at the dinner..............

Just watched that "Into the Woods" thing after reading the Thread, enjoyed it and enjoyed watching some of Yetifan's footage! (I'm definitely buying it, so you're gonna have some more change in your pocket dude!) Anyhoo, just wondering since the last post was a while back if any of the images or stills have been cleaned up further or any other developments on the vid? How's Darryl?

Haven't talked to Daryl in years. No idea where he is.

You know after looking at this still for some time, I think what we may be looking at is a juvenile with an adult right behind it. The eyes are way off in size for a match, but it would make sense if it was a little one hiding behind the tree and the parent standing/guarding it from behind. What do you think?? If you look you can see a small nose by the eye on the left, and a mouth just below it.... of course I could just be wishing to see something.

Am I the only one that sees a very good example of a blobsquatch?

I have a personal opinion that if it takes red circles to see it, it probably ain't there. :wink:

I think a little too much emphasis is being put on the "right eye". Like Woodshadow mentioned back in December, there are a lot of these artifacts all over the image. I've used the Red Pen to hilite them.

The second area I've hilited with the contrasting Green Pen is an area that appears to show a really good example of pixel blow-out due to over-exposure of the camera's CCD. I think the other artifacts are related to that as well.

In all, I think this still is insufficient to try to come up with a sketch of a sasquatch face.

That being said... I saw Scott's story on that Into the Woods clip on YouTube or wherever I saw it, and about peed my pants. Super creepy story, especially how his buddy has just lost it after that encounter. My gut feeling, and yes this is purely emotional, is that Scott and his companion did encounter something in the woods that day. What it was unfortunately can't be discerned in this still. The image quality is too, too poor.

Hopefully this will begin to change as HD camcorders start to make their way into the hands of vacationers, campers, and the like. That might provide the possibility of image analysis of frames that a standard camcorder, even digital, can't.

I will admit that when I first saw the footage on A&E sometime back, and even the first couple of times I watched Squatching, I didn't see anything at all in the clip. I started to see a little of the movement when I watched it a third time. Right now I've got it in my DVD drive and used WinDVD to step through the film segment slowly, and it does appear that there is an object that is moving, where the objects immediately around it, e.g. foliage, etc... are not moving to the same degree.

To be fair, the image is vague, blurry, and a bit washed out by the sunlight. I'd say the image neither proves nor disproves anything on its own merit. That piece of forest where the film was taken is extremely thick with vegetation, being that it is about two thirds of the way up an extremely steep, large hill (I've been there, and you can also see this in the film) between a creek bed and some old logging roads, probably a quarter to a half mile away. Realistically, under the circumstances with the foliage, the lighting, and the distance from the object, plus having the camera operator freak out during the filming, that image is probably as good as could be hoped for.

Could be a blobsquatch, sure. I give it a measure of credence, though, since there is some kind of observable object, and because I've talked with a guy who was actually there at the time of the filming, and I have no reason to doubt him.

I think people are going baby mad again! Sorry chief, but I just don't see it ...

I think the DVD is great and love the tongue and cheek humor!

The creature footage however... I'm not seeing it.

I see some motion, but that's about it. Nothing at all definitive in the footage in my estimation... scrolled through it on frame by frame pause on my DVD player.

Not saying it's not a sasquatch... just that the film does not provide enough clarity or resolution to detmine anything definitive other than something is moving.

That said, I will review a few more times to make sure I'm not missing anything...

K. I'm confused. The vid is a mockumentary that happened to catch a alledged real bigfoot?

One of the links that has been posted in the related threads are to a pornsite....

OMG, it's Heironimus!!

Strange. The stills weren't showing up last I was here and made my post/reply.

I recognize the still now. Seen it long ago. Going to refresh my memory. Hopefully there's a vid someone linked. :eek3dance:

This video was amazing.

I can't believe people don't see the thing in the video. When the head moves it's incredibly eery.

I'm just kind of speechless. The fact that video footage like this exists but people are either too dense/skeptical to recognize that there is a 7 foot tall primate standing and turning its head in that video...

I just don't know what to say. If this video wasn't faked, which I'm sure it wasn't it deserves ALOT more recognition because I haven't seen it until yesterday.






I believe it was a real documentary, but they interviewed some crackpots from the BF festival to make it seem funny. I hate that. The truth is those old men in the video probably did experience Bigfoot but they are being laughed at.

As far as the footage of the Squatch in the woods, that was from different footage entirely, it wasn't filmed as part of the documentary.
