Thesis: Bigfoot exist today because of the scientific evidence that has been found within fossils and witnesses who seen him.
Many people have an opinion on whether Bigfoot exist or is a hoax. The name “bigfoot” was recorded by the Americans in the 19th century. People may say what is Bigfoot? Bigfoot is America's most legendary creature, he’s a hairy ape who walks up on his feet, exactly like a human being. Bigfoot has some features such as his body shape, chest, neck, face, limb proportions and hair color. To start off his body is shaped humanlike, rather than a bear although he has several aspects of his appearance that are different from a human body. His chest is very large and built, the neck is short and thick “unhuman”, if the male

Jerry Crew was later on a newspaper on October 5, 1958. He took a picture with the fossil and it was the length of his upper body that’s how “Bigfoot” got his name.Later in 1967, a video footage was shot by Robert Bob and Roger Patterson in Bluff Creek, California, Bigfoot creeping through trees on his bare feet in broad daylight.It was the second evidence that shows bigfoot was captured on footage.People question if that film was either a hoax or it was real the question is still open.Grover Krantz, admits that’s the height of the creature is within human size but the chest is too large to be human like. He quoted “ I can confidently state that no man of that stature is built that broadly.” Eventually they got a second opinion by David Daegling and Daniel Schmitt, they are anthropologists. They both claimed that the chest was “impossibly wide” for a humans body and also said that the creature walks in a manner impossible for a person to duplicate. Many people say they don't believe in Bigfoot because there is a lot of fake videos and pictures, but people tend to ignore the scientific evidence that is given to the world about him. When people are
Convinced that the Bigfoot was extremely intelligent by the third year of the research, I was persuaded by the evidence, that the Bigfoot was a “human-like” being. This led me to explore the possibility that the Bigfoot had a complete mastery of more than one language, along with a unique language of its own.
Bigfoot is NOT real. There is no evidence that he is part human, there is no DNA evidence, and there is no valid video or picture evidence that proves he is real. He is just a legend that has been passed down for years. It’s impossible for something that is 7-10 feet tall, covered in fur, and lives in the woods can survive for so long.
The Cardiff Giant was a 10-foot tall man made of wood. George Hull decided to hire people to cut a 10-foot block of wood. After that, he hired a stonecutter to carve the wood into the shape of a 10-foot man and made the stonecutter swear to keep quite. The stonecutter also added chemicals to make it look aged. Hull then hired two men to dig a well; he was really paying them to dig up his hoax of a 10-foot tall man but they were not aware. The hoax ended when P.T. Barnum created a replica of the giant and put it on display as the original.
| * Notes: Sasquatch, also known as Bigfoot, is an ape-like creature said to live in the United States and Canada. Although sightings have been reported in numerous states, most reports come from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Numerous Bigfoot sightings have also been reported in British Columbia, Canada. In Wisconsin, the Lakota Indians call the creature "Chiye-tanka", a word meaning "Big Elder Brother." Sasquatch is described as a large, hairy bipedal hominoid. Many people think that Bigfoot's relatives can be found in different areas of
“There was a bigfoot print outside my home” stated Jerry Crew, little did he know what an impact he made as the entire country searched for the big hairy creature known as Bigfoot. Bigfoot ( also known as a sasquatch or a yeti) are the big hairy ape-man with 800 pounds on ‘em These creatures have been seen in many cultures, each modified to their beliefs. For example, a Native American myth goes as a similar creature but it's terrorizing villages and in present American story goes as a hairy man-like thing living in the woods. For the last decade, many people have been searching for this monster which reflects our -thesis-
Bigfoot (or “Sasquatch”) is a tall, dark haired cryptid humanoid that has become a mystery to the American people. Unfortunately, many believe that the furry beast is simply a hoax, while others know what they saw in the mysterious forest. Based on countless discoveries, Bigfoot has existed at some point. Considering the proof presented by dedicated Bigfoot scientists and fans, totally debunking the controversial topic of Bigfoot would seem ignorant. Perhaps people are not digging deep enough to find the creature.
Bigfoot has become an influence to American children for decades. Bigfoot (or “Sasquatch”) is a tall, dark haired cryptid humanoid. With the mystery and merchandise, many believe that Bigfoot is real. Unfortunately, many believe that the furry beast is simply a hoax. Based on countless discoveries, Bigfoot has existed at some point. Considering the proof presented by dedicated Bigfoot scientists and fans, it would seem ignorant to totally debunk the controversial topic of Bigfoot. Perhaps people are not digging deep enough to actually find the creature. It all started when Bigfoot was captured on film for the first time by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin. In the year of 1967, the two men were out in a remote mountainous location in Northern California. After Patterson heard about the tracks found near Bluff Creek, he was determined to make a documentary about the mysteries of the Sasquatch. Buoyant, he rented a 16mm movie camera and went to the area in question with his comrade, Bob Gimlin. He caught the beast on camera casually strolling through an open clearing, staring at Patterson filming while continuing to walk. The film became known as the Patterson-Gimlin film. According to Animal Planet, "The Patterson-Gimlin film is widely regarded as one of the strongest pieces of evidence for the existence of Sasquatches,” (“The Patterson-Gimlin footage”). Throughout
The Blackfoot People are one of the many Native American Indian tribes that roamed America in the early 1700s. Like many tribes they were nomadic hunters that lived in the Great Plains of Montana and the Canadian provinces of Alberta. The name is said to have come from the colour of the peoples shoes that were made of leather. They had typically dyed or painted the soles of their shoes black.
Bigfoot, the name heard sitting around the campfire roasting marshmallows, listening to scary stories. This iconic creature has been the cause of disagreement amongst folklorists and scientists looking for proof of existence. Many scientists believe this is just a product of wrongful identification or someone trying to perpetuate a hoax. Scientists would have society believe these are all hoaxes; even with evidence out there supporting the existence of Bigfoot.
Big Foot was the chief of a subtribe of the Lakota called Miniconjou. He was very old and had pneumonia. He was taking his tribe to the Pine Ridge Reservation in south-western South Dakota.
When watching the film Bigfoot created in 1970 directed by Robert Slatzer and starring John Carradine and Joi Lansing I have made connections to the concepts and theories we have discussed in class. To name some of these theorists and concepts such as, Mary Douglas theory of dirt, Aristotle’s conceptualization of reproduction, Freud’s uncanny and the double, and Ann Ratcliff’s difference between terror and horror. Despite the terrible and cheesy 1970’s effects this movie is actually enjoyable to watch and the perfect movie for analyzing the theoretical concepts we have learned throughout the semester.
What did the early American pioneers see when traveling the uninhabited wilderness of the early 1800’s? Could they have be seeing a black bear standing momentarily on its hind legs or was it actually what we now call Bigfoot today (“The Canadian Encyclopedia”). The origin of Bigfoot dates even further back to Native American myths portraying a large aggressive ape like animal walking on its hind legs eating children and animals (“New World Encyclopedia”). Since then there have been thousands of reports of supposed Bigfoot sightings including footprints, photos, videos and the actual carcass of a deceased Bigfoot. For over 80 years scientist have been discrediting the thought of the existence of Bigfoot, but throughout time scientist have
The Loch ness monster myth has been around for a very long time. Deep down in the depths of Loch Ness Lake, this monster has been averting capture and clear documentation from humans for over 80 years. Sounds ridiculous doesn’t it? This myth is a lot like the legend of Bigfoot. Although some may believe in the existence of Bigfoot, Bigfoot is not real because there is a lack of evidence, other theories, and it overall just isn’t logical. Therefore, Bigfoot is fake.
Throughout the 150 year history of Bigfoot many concerns have raised, the most in number have been from Native Americans. The Karok Indians tell of an “upslope person”
A majority of the questions a Bigfoot quester might be asked is, what evidence shows us that this mythical creature actually exists today? According to the BFRO(Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization), the most recurring evidence that they have is the plentiful amount of witnesses. Witnesses are the people that say they have had an encounter with the mythical Bigfoot. The Patterson-Gimlin film, is said to be the strongest evidence of Bigfoot. Scientists have been evaluating the film for over 40 years, and they have not yet came up with an answer, on whether it's a hoax or if the film is actually showing us an actual Bigfoot. Many people have confessed to being the man in the suit, but scientists say it is
