Then you have ten seconds to explain the more than 400 sightings of Bigfoot in America alone since its founding.

For fuck's sake, do these people have no idea how easy it is to freak out and lose your way or hurt yourself in the woods, or how hard it is to search through them for a body? I swear everyone who thinks something weird must be going on must be really sheltered suburbanites whose only experience is that they once walked an hour along a trail.
Hell, there are people dying in cities without their bodies being found for months or even years. There's literally nothing mysterious about bodies not being found when someone wanders off to die in the great outdoors.

No, it's about the creepy shit surrounding their disappearances, their last phonecalls, witness reports and stuff like that.

If that case is actually true and not a bunch of hogwash(just like most of the weird "facts" from the Dyatlov Pass incident, for example) then it's one case of abduction or negligence by whoever was looking after the kid, added to a long list of normal shit to make it spooky. A kid walking impossible distances is weird, but a family not paying attention and then lying about "I only turned my back for a second!" happens depressingly often, especially when the worst actually happens and they might face criminal charges for being shitty custodians. I mean, we definitely know of at least one serial killer who worked and killed in Yellowstone, but that's not weird enough for these people. They feel the need to link together a whole bunch of disappearances that have nothing in common except the guy linking them thinks they're all spooky in one way or another. Sometimes it's phonecalls, sometimes it's "impossible" travel times, sometimes it's just the family saying they'd never lose their way in the woods or they were acting in some way that the family wouldn't have even thought about if the person hadn't disappeared etc. etc.

It's fucking disrespectful to try and make money off of these people's deaths by writing bullshit books and movies about a dangerous place like national parks.

This guy is hiding in the fucking Amazon rainforest and definitely doesn't want to be found, but we STILL have sightings of him and find remains left behind by him.

For Bigfoot not to be bullshit it'd have to be a lone specimen that has the brain capacity to be a million times better at staying hidden than a human, despite being in a much more accessible area than the human AND being actively hunted by way more people.

Willow Creek was actually a really good movie, and semi-documentary. The people interviewed in the first half of the film are actual figures in the Bigfoot enthusiast community. The second half of the film does a decent job of simulating actual Sasquatch behavior right up until the end. Bobcat Goldthwait is a decent director and has a good grasp of Bigfoot lore.

>a million times better at staying hidden than a human
Think of all the things an adult human knows. All the shit you learned in school. All the information from reading online articles. All the pop culture errata in your head from watching TV and movies. The average western home has over 10,000 objects in it, and you probably know where most of yours are, as well as their functions. All the knowledge you have about your profession, or the things you know to do your job.

Now imagine instead of any of that, you spent your entire life up until now learning how to stalk game and stay hidden in the woods. By now you would be incredibly good at it. And you don't even have the physical adaptations for it that Sasquatch do.

>despite being in a much more accessible area
They generally sleep at high altitudes during the day and hunt in forested valleys and hillsides at night. Their lifestyle is not easy or accessible for humans.

The Bili Ape is about the size of a chimp, lives in large groups, but wasn't discovered until 2004. Gorillas were considered tall tales for almost a hundred years after Europeans first began encountering them during the colonial era.

This is a good talk on how this is possible:

Great tension except using generic lion roars at the end for their sasquatch sounds nearly ruined it for me.

So did the couple getting lost. The guy was competent enough to get them to the right place on the way in but suddenly he's a bumbling retard on the way out. They could have had the same effect if the Bigfoot clan had scared them into running blindly into the woods out of their tent in order to make them lost. Just having them get lost in the full daylight when they got there just fine on the way in is weak writing.

The difference is that with the Hole Man we've got good footage of both him AND his former camps. All the people who sight bigfoot conveniently don't have a good recording device on them and the tracks and traces of it are AT BEST some dodgy footprint or some bear-fur stuck to a branch.
>Now imagine instead of any of that, you spent your entire life up until now learning how to stalk game and stay hidden in the woods.
You're describing the hole man, you goddamn idiot. That's why I brought him up in the first place.

And the reason why Gorillas and the Bili Ape were hard to find is because they live in areas that during colonial times was practically a death-sentence for white people and in the Bili Ape's case it was in a wartorn area filled with guerillas, and the discovery only counted if it was white people doing the discovery. No matter what you want to believe North America is not as hard or dangerous to make your way through as a jungle, and as a result it's much easier to find shit in those woods.
>>
>>87371995
Yeah the "final day" sequence was where it went from good to nonsense, which is what happens in a lot of horror films really. Once the encounters with the monster/ghost/evil child/etc start turning dangerous the stories tend to fall apart.

The nighttime tent sequence was great, though. That's very much how you would expect Sasquatch to behave
>surrounding their quarry at a distance
>closing in from all sides
>using wood knocks and calls to coordinate their approach
>running away quickly when startled, then returning

The roaring wasn't actually that unrealistic. Along with typical primate whoops and screams, Sasquatch make a wide variety of sounds, and their vocalizations ill vary from group to group. The only issue I had with their calls is that they should have been louder. You could tell it was just actors yelling at the top of their lungs. It would have been great if Goldthwait had played some actual Sasquatch recordings through one of those bullhorns you can load up with mp3s.

>>87372110
>You can't support such an energy intensive brain when you spend all day foraging for acorns and grass.
And they don't. They're social hunters. They migrate to follow game and avoid overpredation. They set up sophisticated ambushes requiring a social hierarchy. They're accomplished mimics and can imitate many animal calls.

The average adult requires about 30 kilocalories a day. About half the nutritional requirements of a Grizzly Bear. Like the grizzly their diet is almost entirely meat.

Which makes them more unbelievable, since it then implies the species is not merely native to a specific isolated area of the United States but is instead a broad spanning population across the entire country which makes the likelihood of continued concealment in one of the most populous and explored nations on Earth even sillier.

"Reported sightings" are utterly meaningless.

Hole Man is a human, and so can be tracked by humans. Sasquatch are much better hunters than humans, and they have much different lifestyle. They cover ground much quicker, they move easily through terrain humans have a hard time navigating, and they're much better climbers.

Even so there are a lot of home vids of Sasquatch on YouTube. Some of them aren't fakes.

>North America is not as hard or dangerous to make your way through as a jungle, and as a result it's much easier to find shit in those woods.
This is exactly what I expect someone who spends little time outdoors to say. Our forests are full of dense brush and impassible terrain. They're also full of natural hazards you'd be a fool to not take seriously. I have been stalked by a mountain lion, have had confrontations with aggressive coyotes, and almost been killed by a rattlesnake. And this was in my suburb.

As for finding shit in the woods, in my state there are an estimated 20,000 brown bears. This is double the number anyone believed, before the Park Service invented a new survey technique. Yet I don't know anyone who knows anyone who's seen a bear. Bear remains are also notoriously absent from the forest floor. It's practically a meme. And bears are stupid animals that aren't putting a lot of energy into evading people.

Is there a worse show in existence? Every episode I've seen is just a bunch of inbreeds in the woods making "squatch calls" and then claiming every sound of a stick breaking or owl hooting is a sasquatch shitting in the woods.
Then it's made even worse when they have a resident """"""skeptic"""""" that offers an extremely flimsy counter argument then is immediately convinced that she's wrong when they hear a bush rustle.
Also the acting is fucking atrocious.

Are there footprints, scat, marks, trails, fur, bone, or other forms of physical evidence for the existence of the sasquatch?
>inb4 muh cryptids and giant squid
well they live in the ocean, and rarely leave any of the many forms of evidence described above.
Also, we don't live in the ocean, so of course it took us a long fucking time to find them.

Well, regardless of that, I'm sorry but there aren't any good "documentaries" on the squatch. There's shows like finding bigfoot, but every single episode relies on eyewitness accounts, which are unreliable as fuck.

Just go watch Harry and the fucking Hendersons, it's about as real as anything you'll get on bigfoot.

Wrong
What you mean to say is "Not know to be separate until 2004"
We've known about chimps in that region for decades.
It's only until 2004 people looked real real close and saw that they were so different enough to warrant a subspecies

It wasn't like "This jungle has ZERO apes" and then in 2004 people were like "Holy shit this jungle is FULL of apes"

It was about acknowledging a separate subspecies. Not finding them for the first time ever.

I have diary entries about things I did twenty years ago, and when I read them they square with my recollections. If you've ever been to a family reunion and seen relatives talk about old times, most of their memories will square up, disagreements aren't common, and usually over details. Not the larger narrative of events.

This idea that memory is so unreliable as to be useless is a meme only trotted out when something paranormal needs to be explained away. You never have to employ this argument in any other arena of human experience. Because it's bullshit.

Writing something down solidifies memories
Diaries are great tools for recollection, not just because you have past truths, but because the act of writing makes you remember it later.

Also, you think just because you wrote it down after means it's true? Seeing something is often bullshit.
Look up how much our brains edit what we see. We fucking see upside down if there was no brain editing. But there is, and there's a lot.

There are two fuck up points for "eye witnesses"
The fact that memories are fallible as hell, and also that we never really see the truth as it happens.

This is untrue. In fact there had been an exhaustive search in 2001 that failed. The Bili ape populations were the subject of local rumors, but unknown to primatology until 2004. The first scientist to ever see one was Shelly Williams in that year.

You are misrepresenting facts to support a biased argument.

"The victim's testimony is invalid because human memory is unreliable" is an argument that will get you nowhere in a court of law.

Like most predatory animals, and many primates, they're cannibals. They eat their dead. What they do with the bones, who knows?

It's reasonable to assume that if they exist, and they're close to human in their intelligence, then they know it's good for them to deny us trophies.

Paulidies never says it's Bigfoot in the 411 books or when he's talking about them. But he is heavily involved with Bigfoot research and it's obvious he believes Bigfoot is responsible. Not saying so in the context of his 411 work is a PR strategy.

He also believes in the mystical Bigfoot stuff about how they travel between dimensions and are our gentle forest brothers. He just can't bring himself to admit they're intelligent beasts that aren't above eating a kid when they think they can get away with it.

It's not about them being spotted, autist, it's about where they're supposedly being spotted.

You're going to see more camera footage of things where there are more people with cameras.

Just because an animal has a sterotypical pattern of behavior, that doesn't preclude it from occasionally doing other things.

Dogman is utterly ridiculous, yet I believe in it because I knew two people who saw them.

He was also an entertaining speaker. This is a pretty kino vid set to the audio of his lecture on The Men in Black, who he also spent a lot of time tracking down.

according to some early Mormon mythology, Bigfoot is the biblical Cain who was cursed by God and given 'a mark' after killing his brother Abel and damned to walk the earth until judgement day.

See posts in the thread above. Gorillas were considered tall tales for about a hundred years. The Bili Ape is a large chimp that wasn't discovered until 2004.

The Sasquatch is much smarter than these animals, considers us their primary threat, and actively avoid us. It makes sense that catching one would be a challenge.
