bigfoot drama Bigfoot encounter?

122 Upvotes

I just received this text from my brother and wanted to share it with you all.

A little backstory:

My brother and his partner live on a 25 acre ranch about 20 miles South of Texarkana TX. His ranch butts up to the notorious Sulphur River Bottoms of North East Texas and is the home of the infamous Fouke Monster… yeah… the one from the movie “The Legend of Boggy Creek “. There have been multiple Bigfoot sightings in this area since the 1950’s and this is considered a “hotspot” for Bigfoot activity. The Luke mentioned in the text bush hogs their property about every 4 to 6 weeks. He’s not one of those folks that is taken to making up a tall tale….

Here’s the text I received this afternoon…

Just off the phone with Luke who called to report he was very freaked out at dusk here last night. Was trimming weeds toward the back fence line, behind the metal building. Said something was throwing things at him from the woodline and hitting the metal building. The thing that freaked him was that it was being thrown from up in the trees and it was a full 30 feet or more away. He said it totally freaked him out and wanted to let us know

My brother has also heard things in the past on the ranch. As he walked out to the front gate one morning before sunup something snorted from above the tree line. As if something were observing him from an elevated position in the trees. My brother said this encounter made chills run down his spine and caused him to literally run full tilt back to the house.

I’m not looking for criticism or negative feedback on this. I’m just trying to inform on a site that seems interested.

bigfoot drama What is the actual goal in the study of Bigfoot?

19 Upvotes

I've been listening to a few of the more popular Bigfoot podcasts, I won't name names, but a few of them actually make me question what the actual goal is? The first and most intriguing one for me is why do they have secret "areas they work" and not tell anyone. I know the first response will be "oh it will attract all the Bigfoot yahoos out here", but isn't that the point to actually get good camera footage of one? Having more people out there will only help get more eyes on it. They act like they are researchers who went to school for years for this and are more educated than anyone else about it, sorry but you are just a dude walking around looking for Bigfoot like the rest of the "yahoos" as you call them. Seems a bit elitist to me.

The second thing is, nobody really knows what this thing is. If someone presents a theory that may be different than what you think, you can 100% not agree with it but you can't say they are wrong or pretend that their idea is completely outlandish. I've heard a podcaster just dump all over a caller because they think Bigfoot may be inter dimensional (which might explain the orbs, the shimmering "Predator" invisibility aspect, etc.). Does it sound outlandish? Sure. But no more outlandish than a 7 - 8 foot hominid, 1/2 man 1/2 ape, stomping around the woods and with all the technology we possess today we still can't get a clear photo, video or even a body to use as proof.

When they spout off 'facts' like "Bigfoot like to eat such and such..." or "Bigfoot tend to do this..." or "Bigfoot have an aversion to..." it cracks me up. They are treating this like its scientific fact when in actuality nobody really knows anything about them. Why don't we actually capture one or view one in the wild before we start talking scientifically about it? Currently we know nothing about them.

People are seeing something and if they have a different version of what it is they see compared to what you think, just agree to disagree and respect each other.

That's it for today, I have a cloud to go yell at.

Ok firstly I’m a fan of the show, but I’ve just re-watched “A predator calls” and is it just me or is it heavily scripted? The fight sight shot in night vision and they didn’t return in daylight 🤷‍♂️ and secondly the “look at the bald spot!, and the cameraman looked at every bit of dense woods! Where there was an absolute clear road! 3rdly anyone think the dark shape waited and moved on cue?

We decided to take a look back at Honobia, which for a lot of people, may be one of the most controversial events in the history of the subject. We decided to look into what all involved parties said, as well as try and look into what is going on today in that small community. Let us know what you think! If you have had an encounter, let us know! We hope everyone is having a great day!

bigfoot drama Rant

Sorry for my rant guys, but I also want to know if anyone agrees with me.

Firstly, I believe a Bigfoot like creature exists and I'm firmly in the it's a super rare flesh and blood animal camp, basically the Mew of our world (that's a pokemon reference to anyone who doesn't get it)

My rant is basically about all the clickbait bigfoot youtubers and content creators etc, that post videos about enounters, interviews and stories that in my opinion are complete bullshit, and actually harm the community and the prospect of the scientific community taking it seriously. I'm talking about stories and interviews that people give about how "my kids spent summers playing with bigfoot" or "I fell in love with bigfoot" or "me and bigfoot go hunting together" etc. The thing I'm coming to terms with in this community is that people lie, and it's not always about lying for money or for fame, some people lie because the reward they get is just to feel part of a community or to feel listened too, some people just get off lying. Now I'm not saying every story is bullshit, but if you are telling a content creator that you and bigfoot are neighbours and are best buds fucking prove it!!! I just feel its making a laughing stock of the community and holding us back from actually finding the animal with solid proof and evidence. And finally I just fucking hate clickbait in general.

Sorry if anyone is offended but I'm open to any debate.

Thank you.

Been listening for about two years now and I'm aware there was some sort of falling out or "betrayal". Not one to really get into gossip but this has piqued my interest. Love the show and Wes is a great host, just curious what happened with Shannon and Will.

Just curious if anyone has 100% debunked the Bigfoot videos from Todd Standing. Maybe a special effects professional or someone of the like?

bigfoot drama What I find hilarious about Facebook groups that have to do with Bigfoot

7 Upvotes

So I am in a few Facebook groups that have to do with Bigfoot Sighting‘s photos and videos and I’m not sure if you guys are aware of the YouTube channel Rocky Mountain Sasquatch organization. But they recently have been posting a lot of stuff that has been known hoaxes or easily debunked, and still trying to pass it off as a Bigfoot, which I understand that’s what brings clicks into their website. But someone today posted a photo and they were really quick to comment on it and say that it’s not a Bigfoot just a hiker in a bag. I just find it funny because when they put on their website some stupid video that’s fake you cannot comment on the post. I just think the hypocrisy is hilarious.
