Dr. Bryan Sykes is scheduled to reveal something groundbreaking in a special documentary that's airing on Channel 4 on October 20th. In the 3 part series, Mark Evans and geneticist Bryan Sykes will examine the legend of Bigfoot, and will follow doctor Dr. Sykes as he uses DNA testing to determine if Bigfoot (or the Yeti) is a hominid, an ape or a hoax. Here are some teaser photographs via

Series 1 Summary:
Yeti, Bigfoot, Abominable Snowman, Sasquatch and Almasty are just some of the names for mysterious creatures across the globe that have fascinated cryptozoologists and confounded scientists for decades.
Are they an ancient hominid, a member of the human family like Neanderthals? Are they giant apes or some other species? Or are they simply hoaxes? A leading British geneticist believes he has the tools to finally answer the riddle.
Oxford Professor of Human Genetics Bryan Sykes has assembled substantial physical evidence, which he subjects to the most sophisticated DNA tests available, as he and presenter Mark Evans hope to answer scientifically, once and for all, the mystery of Bigfoot.
Yabba dabba do.
ReplyDeleteFirstnot.
What if Sykes has the goods? The whole world is about to go monkey crazy!
DeleteI bet this has absolutely nothing to do with Yeti's and all-to-do with human lineage from Sherpa DNA.
DeleteThat doesn't make any sense Dan.
Delete'They are here' says Sykes.
Who sherpas? Yeah of course they are. Nothing 'shocking' or 'surprising' about that.
MMG
Dr. Sykes is the only credible researcher ... for now. However, if he concludes that yetis/almas/Sasquatch exist, he loses all credibility. Why? BECAUSE ANYONE WHO ACCEPTS THE EXISTENCE OF THESE MYTHOLOGICAL CREATURES HAS NO CREDIBILITY! IF THESE THINGS REALLY EXISTED WE WOULD HAVE FOUND ONE BY NOW! WE ARE REALLY SMART!! WE KNOW EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW!!!
DeleteI'll stop shouting now.
Dan, when I suggested that you told me Nat Geo already did a study on the dna of the locals...What gives, bro....
DeleteDo you know how many local people's are cut off from the rest of the world in the mountains? It all depends where and whom they tested. One tribe or group could have a different genetic background than the village 2 mountain peaks over.
DeleteAs per Nat geo, do some YouTube searches or search Netflix on genetics, you'll find some great material. In Search of biological Adam an in search of biological eve are good ones, as well as the genome project one.
1:08, nice trolling kid.
DeleteI Claim First Motherfuckers...
ReplyDeleteHaha! Loser...
DeleteThird...ha..
ReplyDeleteThe "Yeti Scalp" is a hoax, oh boy, here we go again.
ReplyDeleteThere are more than one, there junior.
DeleteYep, the one with the Mohawk is definitely the real deal.
Delete5:44, yes, there is more than one hoaxed "Yeti Scalp".
DeleteThe one with the Mohawk?
DeleteOh don't you worry your little head about that one; that's only Disotell's scalp after Sykes paid him a visit.
No 5:50, not all proven at this stage to be hoaxes.
DeleteNext!!!
Yes, I'm rather enjoying the photos of Sykes examining Disotell's scalp. Good one, Rattle Battle. Let's hope the uppity Disotell is recovering from that 'energetic' visit which Sykes paid him.
DeleteI wonder if Disotell's scalp is the only property of Disotell's which Sykes will nail firmly to the wall here shortly.
DeleteThe sherpa's saliva and the scalp have the same dna....The amazing discovery is that these seemingly simple and guileless people are in fact hoaxing con men....I , for one, am shocked...
ReplyDeleteIt is important to understand the events leading up to the discovery of the September tracks.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Green, there had been no activity for four years. That means that the last previous tracks at Bluff Creek were the Laird Meadow tracks, which were certainly made by Patterson.
Patterson had visited Hodgson at some unknown time between 1964 and August 1967 and requested that Hodgson call him if tracks were found.
Then in August 1967, two sets of tracks were found, and Green was notified, and had been there investigating the tracks; they were of poor quality (old?) but are the same tracks that will be found in September ie Patterson made them. I don't know whether Hodgson knew of these tracks, but apparently he did not, as he did not call Patterson, and he said that, prior to September, he had never met Green. So Patterson was somewhere waiting for a call about the August tracks, but it never came.
The September tracks were made the same as the August tracks, 13 and 15 inch, but also included a smaller track. The locations were several miles apart. There were hundreds of tracks in September, up and down both sides of the road. Patterson evidently thought his August tracks had been totally missed, and tried to make these even more obvious.
Hodgson did not know about the September tracks initially. The first person to be called was John Green, who was notified by radiotelephone by Bud Ryerson of the road crew, who found the tracks. ("What you're looking for is here.") Green made arrangements to come down and called Hodgson to help with arrangements. That is apparently the only way that Hodgson found out about the tracks. Hodgson then delayed calling Patterson because he thought it would be rude to have Patterson come in while Green et al were still there.
So in essence, Patterson was making tracks at Bluff Creek in hopes that he would be called, but John Green was short-circuiting the notification process before it got to Hodgson, Patterson's contact.
Patterson is then notified, though he is not at home when the call comes in, and says he will come, but then doesn't contact Hodgson or anyone else in the area in spite of the fact that he has been there for 1-3 weeks and has supposedly not found any tracks. Then suddenly he appears at Hodgson's at 615 pm on Oct. 20 saying he came upon the creature at 130pm and filmed it and (and later claimed to have tracked it three miles) and casted the prints and let them dry and picked them up and had already taken the film in to the post office in Eureka via the Bald Hills road, and then driven back to Willow Creek.
Once you accept the obvious - that the film was shot and developed before Oct. 20th - the announcement on the 20th is staged, and that's proof of a hoax.
DeleteThat's why fronting Al Hogsden as a witness to anything or lending his credibility is specious.
I have every faith that Al was called on the 20th as he relates and that he came to meet Roger and Bob at his store, hearing the story about an afternoon encounter with bigfoot sometime that evening.
I also have every faith that Al did not see Bob Gimlin and Roger Patterson when they actually did the filming. Of course not. Roger has to get the film developed and edited, they need to get that suit out of Dodge without anybody seeing it, along with sneaking out themselves.
They've made the very prints that Al Hogsden tries to contact them about. Wallace wasn't there making them. So who was? Duh. Roger was. He was planting "evidence" so that Hogsden would call him, as instructed by Roger, and it would look like Roger the great bigfoot hunter was being called in to investigate tracks.
I think it wise to trace exactly how the information came to Hogsden about the tracks. Who found them and how? An anonymous phone call? Was someone who knew Hogsden "tipped off" and went to see? I doubt Roger would just leave the tracks hoping someone would find them. He would have ensured his fake tracks would be found by the right people.
In the meantime they really need to look that film over and make sure it is going to sell before making an announcement.
The evidence within the film nulls and voids your gigantic copy-pastes.
DeleteUntil you have the miraculous magical mythical mysterious monumental monkey man suit which can alter the positions of a human being's joints and which contains muscle, tendon, and moving mass, you are copying and pasting into the wind.
Next skeptard, please!
Nicely outlined! But you'll never convince the footers because they are hard wired to believe.
Deleteit just doesn't matter
DeletePhil, you know precisously little about suits if you think Patty's one there's absolutely no way for that. Too complex and realistic in anatomy just like witness accounts, besides suitmakers in those days thought bigfoots were apes and Patty's clearly not behaving like one.
DeleteHis name isn't "Hogsden", it's Hodgson. If you can't even get the names right, how do you expect anyone to believe the other speculative crap you're spouting?
DeleteIf you can't get a clear picture of the bigfoot you saw, who's to say it wasn't just a black bear?
DeleteIf you read my sighting, you can read why I am pretty sure it wasn't a bear.
DeleteHere we go folks. Can't wait.
ReplyDeleteTwo of 'em.
Deleteme either! we've been working on our float for the big parade for three weeks!
DeleteGay Pride parade?
DeleteThe back of the float has a giant Cliff Barakman that blasts the crowd with Zagnut bars from his posterior!
DeleteThat "yeti scalp" appears to be constructed from the pelt of a takin. Let's hope there are more fruitful samples...
ReplyDeleteThere aren't
DeleteYou'll get no more fruitful samples and like it.
Delete^Please STFU.
DeleteYou cannot like a negative.
DeleteI call logical bullshit on you.
No, you see, Sykes paid Disotell a little visit, and Disotell lost his 'head.' The Mohawk is the giveaway.
DeleteSTFU guy is the most credible voice in the BF community in the last five minutes.
DeleteI gave your mom a Mohawk once.
DeleteIt gave your dad a chin rash.
^6:06, You weren't funny with the first exhausted comment, nor is this same repetitive schtick funny. You seem too dim to realize it. So do us all a favor, and STFU.
DeleteCooney drops hammer,calls BS; footers enraged; film at 11
Delete^^ implies he can read IP addys like dermal ridges.
Delete^^^^^ Not funny, " GET LOST"! ^^^^^^
DeleteFooters are a type of mean people.
Delete^^^^^Sucks cock and loves it.
Delete^ Wishes - latent in the closet skeptard with childish homo jokes.
DeleteJoe had a complete mental implosion trying to upload to YouTube. All videos were lost in the process.
DeleteWhat's with all the hate fellas?
DeleteJay has actually made a good point here. Look up this animal. This is a definite possibility. Good observation.
DeleteI agree.
DeleteTwo.
DeleteTwo fruitful samples.
Buckle up.
MMG
Two of 'em?
DeleteOh, there he goes.
DeleteYeti scalp was already tested to be a goat. Nobody is holding their breath over what that will turn out to be.
ReplyDeleteAre you calling the Mohawked Disotell a goat?
DeleteYou naughty thing, you.
No proof is a given.
ReplyDeleteIt's the no evidence I'd be worrying about if I was a cockFooter.
^^^ well thankfully 6:24, by the grace of God, since you are not a cockFooter but instead a cocks**ker, you won't be affected by the evidence or no evidence.
DeleteAren't you grateful?
More childish homophobia. Lame.
DeleteThe chin rash comment was funny though.
DeleteTo be precise, the issues is if the BEST evidence available from the bigfoot/yeti community tests out as known animals.
DeleteIf true, the producer/director is amazingly talented to turn a yawner of a story into a three part mini-series.
4:44 - I got 4 seasons of Finding Bigfoot and Honey Boo Boo that says the three part mini-series producer isn't THAT talented. It's all about knowing your audience.
DeleteThis is exciting. The language used in the summary really implies that there will be some sort of conclusive revelation. And seeing as you can't prove a negative that leaves only that bigfoot can exist.
ReplyDeleteGot dogfuck?
DeleteUnless you got dogfuck BigFoot remains unproven
It would help 6:26 if you first developed some brain matter, then came here to comment.
DeleteDoing it the other way round isn't working out for you, nor for us.
From a scientific perspective, there are multiple possible outcomes that would be considered surprising that don't include conclusive evidence of bigfoot. Don't assume too much.
DeleteYou'll notice that the skeptards have snapped on their big boy diapers and in the face of the juggernaut three-pronged Sykes release they are turning to copy/paste attacks on the PGF. Since they have failed to make a tin foil hat fit Sykes' head, they are diverting their energies to pointless rants agains the PGF.
ReplyDeleteLet's review, boys and girls:
SCHEDULE OF SKEPFOOLERY
Mission Plan:
1. Attempt to preempt/short-circuit Sykes study publication by tailoring a tin foil hat for the doctor's head and continuing the smear campaign.
2. If the Sykes results show only known animals, hurriedly withdraw the tin foil hats and smear campaign and embrace Sykes.
3. Claim that neutral findings of known animals prove a negative, that bigfoot doesn't exist. (Please enjoy this fantasy.)
4. If the Sykes study reveals the existence of an unidentified (hitherto by DNA) hominin, switch gears, ignore it, and attack the PGF, and claim that Patty is not one of these unknown creatures discovered by Sykes. (This must be done at all costs.)
5. If the Sykes study reveals the existence of an unknown hominin, redouble your efforts in attempting to fit the doctor with a tin foil hat. (This is imperative.)
6. If more clear footage, especially if linked with DNA per Sykes, comes to light of a creature appearing obviously to be of the same species as Patty, with the huge buttocks, enormous arm length, and the other matching details, though you will now have to accept the existence of the creatures, you must continue to attack and berate the PGF and all of those connected to it and decry it as fake, despite the mountain of evidence standing before you. (This is also imperative.)
7. To be clear, if bigfoot is proven to exist with another film in conjunction with DNA, no matter how precisely the creature filmed matches Patty, you must continue to proclaim the PGF a fake. This is our battle cry, and our main talking point.
We'll be seeing you on the usual skeptoid sites and forums.
We wish you good luck.
You will see here that the skeptards have leaped ahead to number 4, in anticipation of Sykes' discovery, and are simply attacking the PGF in their ridiculous manner now, rather than waiting.
The only reason you can do this is because it is in the book. I can't turn my light on because my wife is still asleep but I'll look that over again.
ReplyDeleteWhat is very interesting about the bigfoot peddlers, and we have to put you squarely in that camp now despite what I thought you had indicated was your "undecided" stance is that all you feel you need to do is throw out some theoretical possiblilities - ones that the hoaxers themselves could not bear to invent for their outlandishness - and think you have proven your case...
Whereas you demand of bigfoot skeptics "PROOF" in bold letters. It's arrogance that is unbecoming. You see this in criminals who have concealed their actions and smugly demand proof of those actions.
Most importantly, we have right here the scrupulous avoidance of the film development impossibility - they said they mailed it. Even if it was airmail it would not have gotten there Saturday. They could not even have gotten to the post office before closing Friday night.
That's why the special pleading has been for private air charter service which none of DeAtley, Patterson, and Gimlin said they did nor have the charters interviewed remember doing.
Your evasion about this is substituted with an admission that is vague about "contratictions" and an excuse that it is failed memory or exaggeration.
But it is clearly lying. They did not shoot the film on the 20th as it is physically impossible to have done so, regardless of whether a lab exists.
That's why you have to be vague about what you admit to is wrong in their story. Because if you are pinned down on that then you have to admit the film was not shot on the 20th, which is the thing you keep pretending has not been shown.
Book sales are not going to do very well when the owner says it is a hoax. So it is understandable.
Hey buddy, we know the reality. Don't F with the fantasy.
DeleteWeird Science reference? ^
DeleteHey buddy, we know your fantasy, don't mess with the reality.
DeleteYep, good call Ernie. Touche'
DeleteLeave the light off and turn your wife on.
DeleteStop it! Stop all of this fighting! Will somebody for once think about the Orang Pendeks?
ReplyDeleteOoh, go JREFers, go!
ReplyDeleteGo go go!
Keep on takin' action!
Maybe you can convince one on-the-fencer who has a developmentally challenged monkey brain!
Go go go you JREFers!
Keep on tardin'!!!
Are we going to know for sure if the big guys are real? Seriously...this is huge! I can't wait. What network will it be on? Does anyone know? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteNope, Syke's surprising revelation could be ground breaking for science but a long way from the smoking gun you are after. We will see but I'm not getting my hopes up.
DeleteWell, he's mainstream science is he not this Sykes...so feel free to predict the outcome...
DeleteMy pony is worried....
ReplyDeleteIt's not the only one.....
DeleteMMG
episode 2 is american bigfoot cannot wait for that 1 episode 3 hybredisation similar results to melba ketchum im guessing
ReplyDelete"Similar results to Melba Ketchum" you say? You mean shoddily done with contaminant-caused artefacts that Ketchum chose to see as "angel DNA" instead of contaminants from bad sampling procedures?
DeleteScew you douche, she did everything right you should lay the blame on the government covert groups in media press and science for faking it. That's how it's done and the only way to keep the control on a subject they don't want the public to know the truth about.
Delete
