Are You Up To Speed On Bigfoot History?


Editor’s Note: This is a post by Bigfoot Evidence contributor Vicki W.

Check out this fascinating and informative video from SuperSoylent of Team Taser Bigfoot. Whether you need to learn about the history of Bigfoot sightings and tales, or just want to brush up, this video fits the bill.

Citing newspaper accounts, he provides a narrative of pre-1957 accounts of huge and hairy wild men inhabiting the forests and mountains of early North America. Included is tribal lore from Native Americans fitting the general description of what we know as Bigfoot or Sasquatch today. Curiously, the beast of yesteryear often displayed quite a nasty disposition compared to the relatively gentle giant we hear about these days, often suspected in savage attacks and grisly killings of unfortunate men who intruded on their territory.

This one is a must see for Bigfoot buffs or for those seeking to know more about the elusive and mysterious 'boss of the woods'.

  2. I like that he used verifiable sources to back up "local lore". Another good one, Vicki!

    1. Im not out looking for Bigfoot for the same reason I am not out looking for leprechauns, unicorns and flying spaghetti monsters.

    2. Hey leave flying spaghetti monsters out of this! What did they ever do to you. In all honesty real or not at least some people are getting off their butts and into the outdoors.

  6. Great video, I always look foward to your videos. Keep up the great job.

  7. Bigfoot is as real as anything. If you don't believe it you're not informed.

  8. This was great. Love the voice-of-god effects.

  9. Your closing statements were well illustrated with some of the past history. I'm glad you mentioned Leif Erickson as the author took these from his extensive memoirs he made of his trips.

    Most of the past history dealt with the brutality that these creatures exhibited. I wonder how many non violent interactions there were that went unreported. Papers then as now were eager to sensationalize as that sells papers.

    I also wonder what has changed now in that very very few reported encounters involve any violence, although non violent aggression is very common. Is it the sheer number of humans on this continent, now and the Sasquatch pass down to new generations that it is best to leave the people alone, or face possible extermination. Or were past settlers just so trigger happy as to bring about violent behavior?

    In any case it was a very good narrative Phil and thanks for the post Vicki.

    1. I'm going with the verifiable "trigger-happiness" of the first settlers causing the proliferation of attack stories... if only the buffalo knew they could easily smash these new inhabitants! That's all I'm gonna say there...

    2. OR.. Maybe modern violent acts are not documented because the witness is dead lol Remember, you do have all those missing people in National Parks. just saying

  10. I agree with Vicki, and most all other serious researchers: Bigfoot is less than six feet tall, and has, in all likelihood, small to medium sized feet. The oversized tracks are the product of what geologists call "Mud bleed."

    1. Patty is less than six feet tall with small to medium sized feet?

      Delete
    2. I mean, Patty is a costume. I'm talking about the actual animal.

      Delete
    3. You say this as if you have some insight that experts do not have lol. Patty was no costume. "Planet of the Apes" was considered Krem de la krem for that time. Compare that to Patty.

      There was no stretch fur in the 60's and modern science has shown a man could not fit in patty if it was a suit. The knees and elbows are too far down from that of a humans if you were to scale a human to the size.

      But as to the size... Why is everyone so hell-bent that there is only one Hominid roaming around? Washington alone, could have three. Reports range from your classic Patty Sasquatch to possible Neandrathoids and another known as a "Marked Hominid"

      The fact is that if you trace human (Cro-magnon) as far back as found, we existed concurrent with four other hominids. We only have fossils because we all lived in areas where fossils are possible. It is more than plausible that Humans being Human drove the others into areas that do not leave fossils.. Such as the same places sightings are reported to this day??? forests, mountains, swamps and jungles. Not only do these areas provide cover and humans stay away from these areas, but these very same areas do not support fossilization.

      Everyone keeps saying that Melba Ketchums DNA will prove nothing without a body. But no one considers the possibility that maybe what she has is already on record. And if one hominid survived this long, why not the other three?

  11. I do know enough about bigfoot history to know that a guy named Harlan Ford took some footage in a Louisiana swamp of a bigfoot in 1963 using a home movie camera. This footage, that many bigfoot believers do not know about, pre-dates the Patterson film by five years.

    3. Chuck, I saw that on a tv special too. Maybe unsolved mysteries, I can't remember but the information was interesting.

    4. I saw it on fact or faked... They came to the conclusion that it was a man in a gilly-suit. But I don't think we had those back then. I could be wrong, but if it was, it looks nothing like what we have today. The one I was issued did not look like hair. It had broad fake leaves similar to that of a Camo-net.

  12. According to the BFF the Patty suit has been found !

    1. There are many people with huge egos that are solidly committed to PGF being real and no matter what evidence is shown, they will never admit they were wrong. If the PGF were proven to be a hoax, the MYTH of Bigfoot would totally collapse and it's followers would have to find a new scary monster.

    2. The fact that you hang out and poke fun at some thing you don't believe in shows a serious mental issue on your part.

      The fact that you do it as an ANON also means your a coward.

      please just go away!

      I told you before, go hang out with the Alien abductee crowd.

      We all just think your pathetic, except maybe POOPOO 6 from team theater Bigfoot.

    3. And the same suit was proven to not be the Patty suit. And you do not have to be an expert, simply look at the photo.. There are no BREASTS!!!! lol This was a case of someone making a suit that looked like what was on the film, but not paying attention to detail. "I saw that the hoaxer came forward." right? Do you know how many hoaxers came forward? lol To this date FIVE!!!

      The technology to make a suit like that in the 60's did not exist.. Judging by current movies now, it still does not exist. Watch that film closely as Patty turns to the camera.. You will notice the breasts sway. WE STILL CAN'T MAKE FAKE BREASTS THAT DO THAT!!!! GO TO A STRIP-CLUB AND SEE FOR YOUR SELF. lol

      You guys are funny.. You talk about us being gullible because this guy "said" he was the hoaxer or that guy "Proven" he had the suit and took a still shot of him 1/2 waring it. But you do not look at the actual experts who dissected the film and came to the conclusion it could not be fakes. Costume experts have looked at it, Biologists have looked at it, Bio-mechanics experts have looked at it. Every now and then you get one expert who says "I don't think it's real" and makes a weak case, and a majority who say they feel it is real and make a strong case. The muscles flex, the knees are too low for human knees. the elbows are too low for human elbos, the shins and forearms are too short. the torso is too long, the upper arms are too long, the thighs are too long. The arguments against it are weak "It has a zipper! see where the hair on it's back parts?" yeah at the spinal colmn just like a gorillas. "The feet look fake, see how they are white on the bottom?" Yeah like the mud it is walking in? Come on lol The pro's far outweigh the cons.

  14. I always enjoy your posts Vicki, thanks for another good one.
    Nice video SS2. Well thought out, good narrative and nicely executed.
    I was aware of many of the stories, but there were quite a few I didn`t know about. Thanks for sharing this.

  15. The information I find the most interesting are the accounts prior to 1950 and the various descriptions and behaviors detailed by the aboriginal tribes. You can bet that there was very little pop-culture interference, yet the accounts and descriptions are strikingly similar (with or without the violence in these accounts).
    I'll take a 1930's journal entry over a "blobsquatch", any day of the week!
    Nice work Vicki and SS!

  19. Thanks for promoting these clowns again Shawn!!!!!!!!! You just dont seem to get it, you are making yourself and your site look horrible by promoting these moron bafoons. Day in and out you do everything you can to promote dyer, his gay brother, fatsino, this gay group of bigfoot dudes above, and some ignorant hillbilly who likes to make 3rd grade sketches of people. Why you would throw away your reputation is beyond me to work with these clowns. You seriously need to take a reality check and look at the other bigfoot sites. Do you see them putting smutt all over their sites. No you dont. You have some great up to date info, and every now and then, some clown story is okay and humerous to us all, but you have just driven the nail in the ground. its gone way beyond that.
    Their is absolutely no way that you would be posting all this crap by this select group of trash unless you were in with them. I dont know if they just asked you nicely to promote them or you just like them or are getting paid for it. You already admitted in an old post that you were working with them, so it must be that you just have a thing for them or are getting paid. Probably the latter. the fact is if you dont correct this problem then you are no better than these trash flunkies. I expect they are giving you a portion of the "hit" money they get from you tube subscribers. Since they are getting all, and i mean all of their promotion from you.
    Thanks alot shawn, you have sold your community out! And i guarantee you their are tons who feel the same way i do. A small majority may like it, but the rest who will post in response to this are just rick, his gay brother, fatsino, snow crapper deuche and the others.

    1. I certainly don't agree with much of what you wrote and the way you worded it, but this site does repeatedly give creedence to serial hoaxers. I like much of what is posted here; that's why I visit this site from time to time. However, I sometimes wince when I open the site and see yet another story about one of these known hoaxers, stories that give them seeming credibility.

      In my opinion, these serial hoaxers should not be given any forum for their repeated bigfoot BS. They make money from gullible, naive bigfoot enthusiasts. This should stop.

    2. At the top of the page, it states
      "World's only 24/7 Bigfoot News Blog: Encouraging readers to draw their own conclusions from the evidence and arguments."

      Whether you believe in someone's credibility, it's part of news in the bigfoot world. Shawn posts what's going on among researchers and leaves it to viewers to form conclusions about what they believe. In short, he brings us the good, the bad, and the ugly. This is one of the sites that does not align itself with certain characters and bring only their work and point of view. Just the facts...
      It's great that this site offers readers the opportunity to express their opinions freely, but making below the belt remarks about individuals whether you question their integrity or even dislike them overall is simply uncalled for. Cruel name calling regarding a persons physical appearance is stooping to kindergarten level argument and undermines the credibility of what you have to say. Make your point without it and your opinions will be taken more seriously.

    Can't you see what all of this hatred is doing to you?
    Look at all of those exclamation points! You don't like clowns, moron buffoons(are average buffoons ok?),gays, hillbillies, smut, flunkies. It's just an endless flow negativity. Is that the way your mom raised you? Would she be proud?...I don't think she would.

    Now, you can improve your mental health, but it's going to take some work. I have a few suggestions to get you on the right path. 1)Reduce the sodium in your diet. All angry people have high levels of sodium. 2)Start giving your money away to charities. 3)Incorporate Yoga and Tai Chi in your daily regimen. David Carradine has a few good videos on Tai Chi that you should check out. 4) Take long walks,preferably through the woods.

    Just remember, Anon(see, you even hate your name), I'm here to help you. Embrace the light.

    Your friend,
    Steve Moron Buffoon
