BigFoot

I definetly think it's possible. I grew up in Alaska where the Indians swore by Sasquatch. It was just assumed that he was real because so many people had seen it. There were also reports by the old timers to my father that far north some of the Indians on hunting parties had even reported seeing large mammoth like creatures around the late 1890's. I mean, why would it not exist? Even the panda in rural China was viewed as a "fairy tale" until the 1900's!

how old were you? yeah, doesn't really make you believable. I would be less skeptical if more than the evidence that has been found was found like a bone or a tooth in an animal it killed and ate, you know something like that which is more possible than actually finding one.

However I can agree that finding such an animal or its remains is probably quite difficult if the animal is rare (a few thousand on this continent perhaps, with a long life and very mobile). Considering the things probably need 5-10 thousand calories a day and about 1000-2000 would be enough to sustain the population, their total impact on nature is quite small and hard to detect. Say theres 10,000 in all of north america and their life expectancy is 25 years (quite short for such a large hominid). You're talking about finding 3-500 corpses a year spread over something like 50 million of square kilometers.

You're talking about one corpse per an area the size of new jersey. And a corpse would be gone and eatin within about a month in a wooded area, and the bones in about 3 months. Thats not considering these things bury themselves or assist deceased members through someother means, or cannabalize older members etc.

Taking all of these into account, its plausible why a dead one or a part of one is so hard to find. However that doesn't mean they exist either.

I'm telling you guy's I'm... i mean HE'S real

What do you mean how old was I? I left Alaska when I was 25 and that was 1977. Florida winters are a whole heck of alot warmer!!!

No jackass, the guy in montana. He must have been like 6 or something. Kids will say the darndest things.

We will get out, run a mile

so fast that it would make Rexing smile.

When we catch him, we will cheer

Up on Brokeback Mountain we'll celebrate with beer

It will be one hell of an night

running, drinking, with people 1 percent polite

So come on out, on the letsrun van

With Flagpole, Rexing, and hardcore Radcliffe pissing in a can.

You gotta tell this story man, this is the thread where you have to let it all out. Someone on here will believe you.

I saw a bigfoot once in Hamilton New York at around 10:00 pm on the night of May 19th, 2006. It was a very traumatic experience. I was running on the Colgate track when all of a sudden, accompanied by the smell of Red Dog, this big thing jumps out of nowhere and made this loud eery noise that sounded something like "BANGSOMEFATCHICKS!!!" I kept running as fast as I could, almost vomitting because of the hideous smell and sight of this thing. Has anyone else seen or heard something similar in the area of Hamilton?

I'm telling you guys, check out the Bfro.net...they do a pretty good job of debunking skeptics...myself being one. I stated in a previous post that the site/organization is staffed by people with degrees in Bio, anthro, etc. Not a bunch of people claiming to know what they're talking about. They have and EXHAUSTIVE listing of sitings from all over the United States that, even if you think bigfoot is a load of garbage, are very entertaining to read. I encourage everyone to check it out.

My friends and family and I were Kayaking across Sullivan Lake in North Eastern Washington. We had spent the entire day slowly making our way around the side of the lake that is unpopulated (there is a highway on the opposite side of the lake). We "beached" at the far end of the lake where there was a small campground/swimming area, and it was there that me had lunch and let the teenagers swim and mess around. All of the adults felt very uneasy as if we were being watched and we made sure we kept the families close together. When we had to use the out houses we walked together and returned quickly to the beach. As we were beginning to leave the beach several of us noticed a rope swing on a very steep bank of the lake only about a hundred yards from the swimming area. I was among the last ones into a boat so by the time I came to the area of the rope swing, the others had already passed it and were quite a ways ahead of me (approx. 200 yards ahead). I was just daydreaming and enjoying the scenery, ( and to be honest with you glad to be away from the uneasiness that I had felt at the beach )when a movement caught my eye near the rope swing. AT first I couldn't focus on what it was and it took me a moment to realise what I was looking at. There next to the rope swing on a stump sat an old man.He was very tall and dressed in grey from head to foot.( My own father is 6'6" and I remember thinking to myself that this old man must have had him beat by at least 10 inches!) His legs were crossed and he had his hands clasped in front of his upper knee. I smiled and waved to him as I floated closer to him. He didn't move. He was tottaly still and watched me very intently. AS my boat passed in front of him (about 15 yards), I realised that this man wasn't wearing any clothes at all and he was covered completely with a very thick silver fur! Even his eyes were almost completely hidden from a thick (eyebrow?)of silver fur.

WE stared at each other the entire time I passed by him, myself with my jaw gaping (I'm sure), and he just quietly sitting very still. AS soon as I looked ahead to see where everyone else was at and then looked back toward the rope swing, he was gone and just the branches of the bush that was near it was moving. I have never seen anything like it before in my life. I thought I was honestly seeing things until my niece pulled me aside later that evening and asked me if I had seen the Sasquatch that was sitting by the rope swing. I honestly have never really given much thought to Bigfoot before that day. I had passed close enough to him to actually see the direction the fur was growing in! It was mostly all one direction (down)like a dog's hair, except around his eyes were it seemed to stick straight out.

I would pee in my pants if I slowly approached Bigfoot and waved to him, only to realize that it was Bigfoot when I was 15 yards away. I think I would scream like a little girl.

the site is garbage. there are also many people who have sites UFOs all over the US.

This shit is stupid

SRU Runner:

Beware...I'm pretty sure that there have been bigfoot sightings down around wolf creek as well as out at the old Quarry. I wouldn't do those runs alone if I were you.

Hoovis

i really want to come to america and run in the woods untill i see a bigfoot. So how tall are these things, would you say about 8ft.

Nxt question Big Foot vs Andre the Giant(in his living prime)

who would win?

Florida has the Skunk Ape. Go do a google search.

BUMP

there is no such thing as bigfoot, lockness monster, aliens, or ghosts. It's called science-FICTION for a reason.
