2 Chattanooga Men Say They May Have Landed "Bigfoot"

2 Chattanooga Men Say They May Have Landed "Bigfoot"

Say Hulking Furry Figure Is On Video Shot In Remote New Mexico
posted September 28, 2007

Two Chattanoogans say they may have bagged the mythical "Bigfoot".

Lindsay Lemmon and Austin McGee said after returning from a trip out west, they found that video shot out the window along I-40 in New Mexico has a glimpse of what appears to be a hulking furry figure walking.

Mr. Lemmon, a local contractor who specializes in historic homes, said, "I'm still skeptical, but it does look like a figure to me. If it was a prank, then it was awfully hot and it was out in the middle of nowhere."

Mr. McGee, who shot the footage, is much more positive. He said, "I believe it whole-heartedly. Every time I look at it on the VCR I see a figure with real long arms hanging below the knees. He is walking and swinging those arms."

He said a close examination of the figure reveals "a tan round face."

Mr. Lemmon, who went to Las Vegas for filming of a Discovery Channel show on drag racing, has contacted his CPA and is in the process of getting all rights to the video.

Mr. Austin said he contacted two groups that specialize in Bigfoot lore - one from Atlanta and another from Texas. He said, "They were ready to come to my house right then. They were freaking out. They were trying all sorts of ways to get to see it."

Mr. Lemmon said they plan to release the video after the copyright is in place.

He said they do not want to release the exact location in New Mexico, though they believe they can pinpoint it from a town sign that is earlier in the video. Also, an old abandoned shack is seen near "Bigfoot".

Both men said they did not see the figure while they were passing by that spot in remote New Mexico. Mr. Lemmon was driving and Mr. McGee had the camcorder dangling out the window.

Mr. McGee said his sister noticed the figure when she was looking at what he had shot. She said, "Whoa, what's that?"

Mr. Lemmon said afterwards that Mr. McGee, who works restoring old houses for him, called and exclaimed, "We caught Bigfoot."

A local technician who transferred the video to a DVD said the figure "could be a horse. But when you see it you think immediately of the famous Patterson video of Bigfoot."


The still picture does kind of look like a horse. I wonder what the video shows?

It doesn't matter. Even if it's better than the PG film, it won't make the difference.

Amen bro... you got that right...

When they say "Landed" bigfoot... made me wonder if they were either fishing or flying... sounds like neither...

And I don't even want to know what they mean by "Bagged" bigfoot...
boss_of_the_woods
Yeah.,. Mr.Bigs himself could hand that film in and still be ask to prove its real..

Then analyze it for months....


Only to conclude its ????????

Yep, me too. "Landed" was a strong word, for sure.

I'd still like to see the video... if it ever comes to the light of day.
boss_of_the_woods
I hoping its good..

Really...

The still photo is pretty unconvincing......... wink.gif

Seems to me that this is what's in fashion now: "We didn't see it until after we watched the video!"
Dangling the camera out the window?
damndirtyape
Have to wait and see if it moves in this shape or as a background shadow behind the brush.
BlueGenes
I was unconvinced of the video still until I saw the photo of the photographer. How can I disbelieve a guy who poses in ripped jeans and a baseball cap with an overly curved brim? It must be true!!!!!
WmRoy
Maybe with what he's able to sell the tape for, he'll be able to buy some new jeans........... wink.gif
boss_of_the_woods
Yeah.. Lets base everything on how a person looks...
BlueGenes
When I talk to an audience about my research I do my best to look presentable. I don't wear a three piece suit, but nor do I wear the sweats I watch tv in at night in my home. Likewise, I don't curse or use slang as I might when having a conversation with a friend in bar. Of course one should not judge people by looks alone. But, when it comes to a controversial topic such as BF evidence, that "proof" should be presented in as professional a manner as posible.

What do you imagine most people think of BF "researchers"? I would venture that many think of slightly (or certainly) crazy pot bellied guys in cammo, smashing around the woods, jumping with excitement at every little sound, claiming they just had a BF encounter. Call me what you may.....I think BF research could use some window dressing.

If I ever find what I believe to be proof, or good evidence of BF's existence, and a local news agency arrives at my door to interview me, I'll change out of my comfortable sweats and put on my best pair of clean slacks and a button up shirt. It's just simple respect for myself and those who might see or hear me.

The still is interesting, but we'll have to wait for the video until the copyright is approved?

Las Vegas is on I25 not I40, and that vegetation is not what you would see from I25 near Las Vegas, looks like it would be a lot closer to Santa Fe.

<in best Ben Stein voice> Posts 37-40 were from a duplicate thread. Maybe we should put out a PLEA in 5,000 PMs. "To highly regarded BFF member and family: Please DO NOT start a thread containing the following words alone or in any combination: two, Chattanooga, men, Bigfoot, found."

Don't ask.
"We're obtaining the copyright" has become the 'lame excuse' du jour of every two-bit Bigfoot film owner wannabe. These guys from Chattanooga have a film alright, it just happens to be more full of choo choo than Bigfoot. whistling.gif

The idea that they're holding out until it gets copywritten should really say - "we're holding out for whom ever pays us the most money" [for the alleged BF footage] new_thumbsdownsmileyanim.gif

Sounds like rubbish to me...

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest two scenarios

1.) they really do have good quality video footage of the creature

OR

2.) it's going to end up like the "Alien Autopsy" video back in '95 or '96 - a big hoax

True, but it's MUCH easier to protect/prosecute others when it is registered, which does take a small effort and a few days.

The above quote makes me wonder if this video really could be something worth while.

If this gentleman is a cameraman for Discovery Channel and shot it with a high-quality camera, it stands to reason that it will be aired on Discovery Channel in a feature program and will have some intriguing clear footage. I guess we'll just have to be patient and wait. Or start a campaign of messages to Discovery Channel requesting to aire the video!

The Patterson video has been examined frame by frame for 40 years now, and there still isn't definitive proof that it is a hoax or real...

I'll raise the BS flag if the footage turns out to be shaky, blurry, out of focus teaser clips.
