One reason why I personally believe a lot of people look at "Bigfoot" and other alleged phenomena as nothing more than the aggregate idiocy and shenanigans of shysters and crackpots is videos like the one below: It's clear, to me anyway, that the individuals who made this "Bigfoot" video have way too much free time on their hands. Too bad a real Sasquatch didn't appear during the making of this video.

Last night I went and saw Jeff Meldrum (well-known Sasquatch authority who's appeared on MonsterQuest) and got to meet him. It was pretty cool. Jeff Meldrum gave a great talk. The place was pretty packed. The first meeting was filled up before I got there. So I had to wait an hour or two to get into the next one. I filmed the whole thing, so hopefully it'll be up on youtube soon. Before the meeting I got permission from Dr. Meldrum to film it, just so long as I didn't sell it or anything. Then after the meeting I went up and shook his hand and asked him a couple of questions. I asked him if he had any advice for how my paranormal group could start researching and contributing to the field. And he suggested something along the lines of getting the know the area. Dr. Meldrum's first real experience with Sasquatch tracks was in the Blue Mountains, which are pretty much right next to where I live (and are also where the Freeman footage was taken). So Dr. Meldrum thought it would be a great idea for our group to take a trip there. I also asked him what he thought of "call-blasting." Dr. Meldrum seemed fairly negative about the idea, and I agreed with him. I think call-blasting is more likely to scare a Sasquatch off than attract one. During the actual presentation he'd suggested that having strange animals, like llamas, with you during an expedition is a possible way of attracting Sasquatches. Dr. Meldrum also told me that he didn't think the "knocking-on-trees" technique was worth my time, considering that no one has ever seen a Sasquatch knocking on a tree. After that, I quickly told him how much I appreciated his contributions to the field, and that I knew very little about him until the recent MonsterQuest episode, in which he gave some very good information about Sasquatch footprints. |

Remind me if you can, Gregg when it's posted. I'd like to watch it. ![]()
![]() Why, out of curiosity, would one of these creatures "knock" on a tree? Is it presumed that these creatures may communicate with each other in this manner? |

No problem. Will do.
Good question. I think this was actually the first time I'd even heard about this. So all I know for sure is that it's thought by some that you can communicate with a Sasquatch by doing this. |

Famed British scientist Dr. Stephen Hawking believes, as he states in a recent BBC documentary beginning to make the rounds on The Discovery Channel, that humanity might be better off not making contact with extraterrestrial aliens. His reasoning? He believes some aliens might be nomadic space wanderers who conquer and colonize other worlds after depleting the resources on their own planet. Read more: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20100425/sc_afp/scienceastronomyextraterrestrialhawking This scenario Hawking mentions is essentially the plot of the film Independence Day(1996).

Click the link to watch a short video on the world's most powerful earthquakes in recorded history: http://whoknew.news.yahoo.com/?vid=18555857 Included among these are the Great Alaskan earthquake of 1964, which measured 9.2 on the Richter scale and the Valdivan earthquake in Chile(South America) which registered a staggering 9.5 on the Richter scale. These two catastrophic quakes are currently ranked as the two most powerful ever recorded. The earthquake off the coast of Alaska in 1964 generated a series of tsumanis(tidal waves) and tidal bores, including one observed tsunami that had a run up height of 200 feet, this monster wave wiping out numerous inlet communities in and around Prince William sound. This giant wave is currently the highest recorded tsunami in U.S. history.

Oh yeah. Saw that episode when it aired. I admire the effort put into faking it, but for some reason it really bothers me when people create these elaborate hoaxes. Cryptozoologists would have it a lot easier if they didn't have to waste time on hoaxes and lies. |

Famed British astrophysicist Stephen Hawking, who recently warned of potentially disastrous first contact with extraterrestrial visitors to Earth, has issued a dire warning to humanity: leave Earth or face extinction. Why has he made this declaration? Click the link and find out: http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20100809/sc_afp/sciencespacehawking I believe Hawking's statements are entirely plausible, given the rate at which we are consuming the natural resources of the planet.

I found this 2008 video clip of a fly fishing documentary in central Oregon posted at Ken Hulsey's "Monster Island News" blog. At the 1:41 mark of this video one can see, on the left side of the video, a large, shadowy figure stand and start moving away from the river. The sequence is very brief so you have to be careful to spot it. Obviously this begs the question: was the figure a Sasquatch? Decide for yourself by watching this clip below: Here's a still photo from the clip that shows the figure on the left side of the image frame: ![]() Uploaded with ImageShack.us
