"I couldn't resist." - Phil Poling, Team Tazer Bigfoot.

Your feet contain 52 bones, 66 joints, 40 muscles, and hundreds of sensory receptors, tendons, and ligaments. Feet bear the brunt of all your weight-bearing activities like walking, jogging, etc. We can all agree that proper foot care is very important right? These barefoot sports are the latest rage these. According to the Vibram company's website, moving and running in FiveFingers can make us "healthier, happier, and more connected to our bodies" and wearing them will also make your feet stronger they say.

If we were Vibram, and we're looking to expand our customer reach, what better person to reach out to than foot expert Dr. Jeff Meldrum? If they're not thinking about this already, then they should!

    Its funny because that's the print of these shoes Meldrum is holding in the pic. Furthermore, Cliff Barrackman and Meldrum a perpetuating a hoax by promoting these London tracks as the real deal. I've heard from within that these are not legit prints and they know it but so much work and excitement was creating in their regards that there's no turning back. Basically its milk these tracks for all their worth. Its a shame because I thought for sure that these would be identified as misidentifications to the public when it was know BUT that's not what happened. Its extremely disappointing to see what's happening with these tracks.

      Holy Shit anon 1:56 heard from within that the tracks are fake. That's it I knew it all I needed to prove it was some anon on the internet claiming he is in contact with someone close enough to Dr.Meldrum or Cliff B. For them to confide in him that this whole thing is fake... Hooray I can stop believing in Bigfoot cause some anon said it's fake...

      Read the post before you make a public retard out of yourself. Anon 1:56 didn't say that you should stop believing in Bigfoot, he said that the “London tracks” are fake.

      Cliff wrote that Meldrum was initially skeptical and changed his mind. Maybe he was right the first time, but they are not hiding anything.

    Scuttlebutt is that the people who made these are about to come forward. It should be fun hearing the backpedaling from those involved with the authentication.

    All those Vibram products have tread moulded into the soles so under good conditions they would be spotted a mile off but wet soggy ground that is another matter.

      Yes, I've thought of that too but the thing is the ground "was extremely soggy". That's why we don't see the tread.

      Furthermore, these shoes are a perfect match for the prints. Everything from the shape to the toe spacing to each individual to length. Everything matches too perfectly. Furthermore, I'm not saying this happened but who's to say if there were indeed some of the tread visible prior to casting, that someone didn't remove the treading indentions by pressing them down lightly.?

      I'm sorry but these tracks are obviously misidentifications which are in reality these Vibram shoes. The fact the Meldrum and Barrackman have been fooled (or even worse know they're not legit) is laughable.

    Having never had a look at these London tracks I thought I had better check them out, the casts that were on display with rulers next to them for reference seem to indicate 6in at the widest point.
    I then found a shoe size/width conversion chart which goes up to size 15 which converts to 5in, now I could not find any listings for Vibram products above size 13 which incidently equates to 4.6in in extra wide so it appears to me that you would have to look elsewhere for a candidate that created these particular tracks.
    The shoe size/width table can be found here :

Bigfoot injured by a forest fire was taken away and hidden by the authorities, not even Robert Lindsay can top this story

This story was circulating the internet way back in 2004, or maybe as far back as 1999. Back when everybody was on 56k dial-up modems and a "Facebook" was just a regular book with directory listing of names and headshots. This story was so disturbing and so shocking that nobody believed it at the time. It was the Robert Lindsay " Bear Hunter: Two Bigfoots Shot and DNA Samples Taken " story of the time. And like Robert's Bear Hunter story , this witness didn't have a name. The only thing known about the witness is that this person was a government employee, anonymous of course. The author of the story was a science teacher named Thom Powell who believe it really happened and that the whole story was an elaborate cover-up. Powell said the anonymous government employee alerted the BFRO about a 7.5 feet long/tall burn victim with "multiple burns on hands, feet, legs and body; some 2nd and 3rd degree burns". Sadly, there was no DNA samples taken from

Rumors abound on whether or not Finding Bigfoot will continue, but hopeful news is on the horizon. Snake Oil Productions, the production company responsible for Finding Bigfoot, is seeking a permit for filming in the Monterey, Virginia area. Monterey lies between the Monongahela and George Washington National Forests. Definitely a good place to look for bigfoot. We can only speculate if this means Finding Bigfoot has been signed on for additional seasons, or if perhaps a new bigfoot show is in the works. We'll keep you updated on any further announcements for sure.

Samurai Chatter: Have you used it in the field?

Editor's Note: This is a guest post by Suzie M., a sasquatch enthusiast. Crypto-linguists believe that the species known Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti/Yowie ect speak and understand a complex language, which by all accounts seems to stem from Asia. When one listens to it there is definitely a sense of it being Chinese or Japanese. It is a very odd mix of sounds, clicks and what could be actual words. This is the reason some experts are looking into the Asian dialect theory, some have said it could be a lost dialect, which was carried from Asia by the Bigfoot species that colonised America.
