I see nothing of real interest just because it is to far away, but they promise they have better so is this the latest BF scam?

Also like to add this looks very current, do a Goggle search for "Yellow Top Bigfoot" and you don't get many hits relating to this video.

Has anyone investigated this?

Where is the yellow?

I say BS. I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it.

Here's what I don't get. Read a report. Most likely it will include a fast, loud, screaming, rock and stick throwing, grunting animal dead set on escorting people out of it's area. Or a fast, totally silent animal that appears out of nowhere, and becomes the first type animal after the humans see it.

Then the videos. A distant, quiet, ambling blob that looks more like a pensioner (ode to Paul) out for a stroll, than the top predator in the area.

Why is that? (ode to Counselor, asking a question when I already know the answer)
rolando
Looks like we got something new! Yeah!

This will without a doubt be exposed as a hoax within the next 12 posts Ha Ha!
Sasquatchamo Joe
I don't believe it will get investigated enough here to expose anything. I found out from my posts here when you're winning a debate and they can't answer your legitimate questions they post a picture of a mentally challenged kid and shut it down.

What is there to investigate? It's too far to make a fair conclusion what it is and we have no idea who took the videos, not to mention they are going about it the same way Todd Stand did with his Sylvanic purported videos of Sasquatch.

So stop whining again.

As I read the account and looked at the film, I couldn't help but notice the long shadows cast by the sun. In the account, the time of year is July. The time of day is early afternoon. This timing doesn't make sense when you look at the shadows. If that is in July then it was filmed in the evening since he mentions the creature is to the east of him.......

Nice work with the IMDB ^^^. Anyone with a filmography credit there should be suspect in these matters. Might not be a connection but what a coincidence.

This too may get shut down by the mods if there are already four fully exhausted threads...... two years go by...... subject is brought back from the dead with nothing new added and causes friction between two groups ......... goes away....... comes back with a new title but with nothing really new to say...... then, they might just close it up.
Ronnie Bass
I just shot them an email with an link to this thread and an invitation to join us in this discussion, hopefully they will take me up on the offer and we can quickly get to the bottom of this.

At least it is not a blob...clearly someone on 2 legs....I'd like to see some stills and close ups of it....I have no idea how to do that cool stuff. Mr. Ronnie bass....great idea!

I didn't see any yellow on his head and the creature looked like a man to me and not a sasquatch. If you look at the very end when he stops to just stand there, it looks like a man. There have been sightings of yellow top in Hamilton back in 1965 and other years. I believe the story is on the bfro site in the Ontario section. I didn't know there was a yellow top in Colorado..

QUOTE
...As I tried to walk forward and zoom in for a closer shot, I could clearly hear the sasquatch make a loud call - a high noise similar to that of a young bear or ape. This is clearly audible in the video, but what is less audible is the growl that followed that. It was throaty and rough, quite different from that of a bear or big cat. The creature then began to quicken its paces and entered a thick grove of trees. ...
My bolding.

Did anybody hear the loud call on the video or the less audible growl?

edit: Ok, I listened again with volume all the way up and at 0:19 there is some sort of vocalization. It could easily be a human sound (or a sasquatch.)
DZ302
Personally I thought that the "call" was a very nice touch! thumbup.gif

So is this a hoax or not? The video still doesnt seem to tower over the brush, nor the camera level. I wouldnt be confident in ruling this not a hoax: If its not real, its most likely used for a film, BASED on possibly real events. In other words, depiction

We are discussing your video here, so far it seems to us this is not legit. Feel free to explain more about this with us. Thanks.

--------------------------------------

To Ron & all members of The Bigfoot Forums:

I appreciate the invitation to speak about yellowtopsightings.com. From what I can see, The Bigfoot Forums is a place for good, honest discussion about the Bigfoot phenomenon and I hope I can add to that. Will I be able to, as Ron inferred, "quickly get to the bottom of this"? I'm afraid not. But hear me out, in any case.

yellowtopsightings.com was launched only 2 days ago, and it was picked up by your members pretty quickly - before I'd really had a chance to finalize all its preliminary content. NWSquatcher pointed out the disclaimer at the bottom of the SIGHTINGS page which reads:

"yellowtopsightings.com is a promotional website for Yellow Top,
the upcoming short film by Noah Sodano."

Well noted. Upon further reflection, (some of it due to the discussion you all have been having) I have also added this:

"PLEASE NOTE: We do not vouch for, verify, or otherwise claim authenticity of any writing, video, or pictures posted on yellowtopsightings.com. All content is presented as a matter of record, and should (as with any content of this nature) be regarded with a healthy skepticism."

This is as clear as I'm going to be on this point. I respect (and share) your desire for truth and your skepticism is perfectly understandable. (The study of Bigfoot is, by its very nature, defined by skepticism.) Your community is no doubt still stinging from last year's pathetic frozen ape costume incident. I have long held a true passion for Bigfoot lore, and would hate to find myself on the same shelf as those money-grubbing idiots. For those of you who share a scientific interest in the sasquatch, you have every right to dismiss or ignore yellowtopsightings.com and any content posted there.

That being said, I hope you won't. Every creature has a story, those which are found to be "legit" and those which aren't. I hope that in the end, you'll find the story that plays out on yellowtopsightings.com to be compelling, no matter your opinion. In any case, give it a few months. Spring is coming, and the truth won't be far behind...

Respectfully yours,
YTS

If you last around here, and right now that is even money, you'll learn that everything you think, or think you think has probably been discussed in excruciating detail on a thread you don't even know about. We've all made that mistake, and if you don't get defensive, and try a little patience before mouthing off, you'll look like an idiot far less than say, now.

Without anyone even leaving their chair we now know it's a promotional website for a movie, and the owner will not vouch for the authenticity of the video. To his credit, he said he couldn't and it wasn't good enough to cause him to go out on that limb. This is a tried and true marketing ploy, which is not a bad thing, but it's not evidence of an undiscovered primate either.

As for the Jacobs photos, I'm glad you just discovered them, we've been discussing them in, yes, excruciating detail for a while now. So, welcome to the party pal.

That's exactly the question I was asking myself while reading that same part. Only with an ugly NYC accent.
Building up hype for a movie is pretty cool and you picked the right place. This will burn through multiple forums very quickly if there is something substantial involved. This will give you at least 20,000+ viewers or people that at least have heard of you. How do you want them to remember you?
S.B.R.U.
As much as i would like to say "I dont think this is another BS BF scam"...my guess is that this is just another scam. They set up the site, posted a video and what not in a few days. I say, give the guys a little bit of time and they will come forward with something dumb enough to prove their ignorance. Does this remind anyone, other than myself, of the georgia boys back in either 07 or 08? scratchhead.gif
DZ302
Hmm, not exactly like the georgia boys but with a twist. I'm thinking that "the boyz" kind of did a proof of concept that something like that could be profitable. They mostly bumbled through but in the end they were still broke-azz rednecks. To a smart person or group (maybe like the yellowtop crew) the mistakes could be noted and a much better, more profitable approach could be taken. With this quote:

So...personally I'm thinking that the likelihood that there is legitimate BF stuff there is slim to none, but maybe some new angle on making money. But as always, what do I know??

I am more referring to is this a promotion for a fiction film or documentary.

In other words is this going to be about fiction or non-fiction, because it's clear this is a promotion.

And thanks for taking me up on my offer to discuss this with us and welcome yt.

Are you the person to shoot this video and the author of the sighting posted on your site? If so I have a question...the sighting report says..

"For almost five minutes (although it seemed far longer than that), I attempted to retrieve the video camera from its case without disturbing the creature. I had successfully opened the zipper, but overzealously pulled on the velcro holding the top of the case shut. The sasquatch looked quickly in my direction, realizing our presence. Knowing my cover was blown, I quickly pulled the camera out of the case and turned it on."

I find it hard to believe this animal or any for that matter didn't sense the author and his sleeping friend in the area. That the sound of Velcro alerted him to your location and presence. The sighting report also says...

"I could clearly see from its genitalia, which was eerily human, that it was a male. The creature made no sound as it sat beneath a tree, and stayed there, nearly motionless."

Dang! that is close!...I'm calling shenanigans. new_thumbsdownsmileyanim.gif

If it's just your site and someone else is the witness then hopefully they can come onto this board and explain some more.

Looks like this isn't going over to well with our friends at Cryptomundo.com as well:

http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/yellow-top-vid/

YTS - you say you understand what the BF community went through with the Georgia boys fiasco, I honestly really don't think you do. If this is not real, you need to come out and say so and not try to pull the wool over peoples eyes for your own gain, because if this is fake and a promotion for some kind of film you will be stuck with the stigma of those money grubbing idiots that you say you would rather not be associated with.

The reason I am being so blunt and this is with all due respect towards you because you did come in and explain some things - as vague as they may be - is because the BF community is fed up with these antics and will not put up with this crap anymore.

In other words I'm saying the time is now to show your cards.
DZ302
Ha, Ha...but if he comes out and just flat says that it is a fake for a movie that would kind of kill the whole buildup process. You know, the marketing of is it real or fake...you decide, but it'll cost you $x.xx to see it, LOL!

This is really great footage! Unfortunately, it isn't the real deal. I guess the discussion should be about how the suit was built. Maybe we can gain some insight into the potential suit of the P/G footage.

I didn't think it was a bad hoax. I though it was a pretty good one. Thought the bubble butt was a nice touch.
Saskeptic
So those aspens between the camera and the bubble-butted creature: 4 or 5 of 'em right? That means that the camera was pretty danged close to this mythically intelligent and elusive creature that was oblivious to some dude video-ing it from, what, about 50' away in broad daylight? JUst doin' a little fact checkin' here . . .

Fake, fake, fake... Yes, I am an opinionated old crank, but this looks like nothing more than a dude in saggy-butted monkey suit. And the email from ytsightings.com just a vague promise of more to come...

Hi Sas!
bigfootnis
pretty good hoax in my opinion. Not near as a good of a hoax as PGF film (if it is a hoax). It is interesting that after all these years and all of the advanced camera and computor manipulation that no one has equaled PGF. Either one of the greatest hoaxes ever or .......?
