It's Not Possible To Ignore A Headline Like This: "Women report seeing 15-foot-tall creature with long dark hair"
The two berry pickers didn't really see a 15ft tall Bigfoot. The current subheadline, "Women report seeing 15-foot-tall creature with long dark hair" for a Bigfoot related article by CBCNews is probably just a typo... or is it? Nevertheless, we think it's a pretty damn catchy title-- and it caught our attention.
Bigfoots are typically 6ft to 8.5ft tall. According to the article, the two berry pickers in Nunavik, Quebec claimed they saw a long haired creature around 10 feet tall walking upright along the side of a hill. The women said it would sometimes crawl on all fours.
Loren Coleman of Cryptomundo believes the height of the creature may be an exaggeration. "It sounds like a traditional kind of sighting. I think the only thing I would wonder about would be the height of 10 feet with a footprint as large as you said. But that happens people exaggerate," he said.
Here's the CBCNews report:
Two women in Nunavik had an unusual encounter while berry picking on Saturday.
Maggie Cruikshank Qingalik, who is from Akulivik, Que., said her friend saw some kind of creature out in the wilderness.
Qingalik said at first, they thought it was another person picking berries. Then they noticed it was covered in long, dark hair.
She said it was walking upright along the side of a hill, and was taking long strides. They said it would also sometimes crawl.
“We weren't sure what it was first. It is not a human being, it was really tall, and kept coming towards our direction and we could tell it was not a human,” she said.
Qingalik said the creature was 10 feet tall. Pictures posted on Facebook show the alleged footprints are 40 centimetres long.
The women said the creature didn’t appear vicious, nor did it appear interested in them.
Understandably for such a sighting, the women got scared, hopped on their ATV, and headed back to the community to warn people about what they saw.

ReplyDeleteWell, the Ketchum camp has had a sighting of a 14 footer by their reckoning.
ReplyDeleteI think it's a miscalculation of the metric system to the american one.
ReplyDeleteThis is what happens when women try to estimate distances.
ReplyDeleteHow many yards in a meter? That metric system is a doozy
ReplyDeleteNearly one yard in a meter which equal 3 feet and 3 inches and few dust.
