Cliff Barackman Releases Brown Thermal Bigfoot Footage

The screen shot above is a still from the thermal footage that Facebook Finding Bigfoot wanted to release but decided not to after stating that they didn't have permission to share it. A representative for FBFB even came forward to address rumors that it may be a hoax by FBFB. "Steve I’ve seen the video that was promised on the 10th and FBFB did not release it last night nor will it be released for a while and that is because one of the two owners do not want it released. That video is a F.L.I.R film.", Adam Bird wrote to SquatchDetetcive, Steve Kulls, concerning the rumor.

We now know what footage they were referring to-- It's a footage Stacy Brown Sr./Jr. (www.thesasquatchhunters.com) originally shared with FBFB investigators and it was filmed in Florida back in May 8, 2012. Cliff Bacrackman was also asked to analyze the clip and this is what he wrote:

On May 8, 2012, a very interesting piece of thermal footage was obtained by Stacy Brown Sr. in Florida. His son, Stacy Brown Jr., contacted me a while back to ask for my help with trying to authenticate the footage. Knowing that no footage can ever be proven to be a bigfoot beyond a doubt (some folks still doubt the Patterson/Gimlin Film, after all) I set about trying to extract as much information out of the clip as possible. Perhaps some of this information could shed some light on whether or not the clip could even be considered as real. Below are my thoughts and conclusions on this remarkable piece of footage.

Here's the footage:

Phil Poling of Team Tazer gives us his thoughts on the video:

I have examined this footage. I understand that this was filmed in an opposite field. That is a negative where the normally white thermal image is reversed making some aspects of the scene appear normal. This makes sense here. The subject has no motion blur. But that is normal under these conditions. Motion blur doesn't exist under thermal imaging because it's not an optical capture, it's a temperature capture and is only limited by the rate of recording capability. Thus, this looks like an authentic recording of a thermal Flir image. The only point I have issue with is that it was reported to have been filmed while walking down a trail and it looks like there is no up and down movement to it. It may have been on a tripod. It may have also been carried with them but I don't know. But it looks good. - Phil
