Dr. Melba Ketchum Gives 4 Reasons Why She Didn't Want to Compete In The $10 Million Bigfoot Bounty Show
Here are the main reasons why Dr. Melba Ketchum refused to participate with SpikeTV for the $10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty show. Ketchum was one of many scientists approached by producers to be a judge on the show, but she did not make the cut. According to Ketchum, she made the conscious decision not to be a "prostitute" for ratings:
People keep asking me why, since I have scientific proof, I don't participate in the 10 million dollar Bigfoot Bounty. Here are the reasons:
1. I will not prostitute a serious scientific study for ratings on a reality TV show. That is a sure-fire way to discredit science asap.
2. Their scientists have scientific bias. Todd Distotell went on record calling our study "crazy" and had already slammed it in a newsblog while admitting he hadn't even read the manuscript. I find this amusing since he tested some of the same samples in the study and got IDENTICAL sequence, but he called it human contamination. All he tested was the mtDNA. When we tested the same sample, we tested BOTH mtDNA and nuDNA. The nuDNA showed unknown sequence combined with human sequence which is consistent with the rest of the samples in the study. If it had been human contamination, there would not have been unknown sequence when we did testing past what his lab did. It would have given 100% human alignment which was not the case and there also was no animal DNA since we tested using universal mammalian primers it would have shown a mixture, which it didn't. He also admitted our science was cutting edge and he was not familiar with it at the same time he called the study "crazy" so why on earth would I consider him to be qualified to have any opinion of our evidence?
3. I really am not thrilled with any type of TV appearance unless it is done in a professional manner, not just for entertainment purposes. I don't give a hoot about fame. I just want the Sasquatch protected! That is the ONLY reason I continue on with this. Trying to kill one like this show promotes is unethical and immoral. I won't be a part of it. I don't take blood money. I would rather be poor and have a clean conscience than to sell out for even that huge a sum of money.
4. If they actually did what they claim and accepted real DNA proof, the show would never happen because I already have what they are sending all of those people out looking for.

It's BEB's very own nonsensical 'bloke in a suit'!
Let's hear it for 'bloke in a suit'!
Here he is folks^
DeleteThe resident butthurt footer that's obsessed with jref, butt plugs and robotic arm extensions.
Pwned every time by 4 words:
Bloke in a suit.
Got magic, limb proportion defying, amazing monkey suit?
DeleteDidn't think so... You could always make up you have one, like someone did on the previous thread.
Kit would be so proud.
Only someone with a child like naive mind would describe patty as magic, limb proportion defying and amazing.
Deletethat would be a bloody bloke in a suit me lord.
Delete9:59... Says he guy still looking for child-like boogey man reassurance.
DeleteSomething tells me sarcasm isn't your preference of humor too, you do have to have just a tiny bit of brain to grasp it though.
Morris said that Patterson telephoned him asking how to make the "shoulders more massive"[53] and the "arms longer." Morris says he suggested that whoever wore the suit should wear wide football-type shoulder pads and hold sticks in his hands within the suit. His story was also printed in The Charlotte Observer.[55]
DeleteAs for the creature's walk, Morris said:
The Bigfoot researchers say that no human can walk that way in the film. Oh, yes they can! When you're wearing long clown's feet, you can't place the ball of your foot down first. You have to put your foot down flat. Otherwise, you'll stumble. Another thing, when you put on the gorilla head, you can only turn your head maybe a quarter of the way. And to look behind you, you've got to turn your head and your shoulders and your hips. Plus, the shoulder pads in the suit are in the way of the jaw. That's why the Bigfoot turns and looks the way he does in the film. He has to twist his entire upper body.
The arm length of Patty is 10% longer than that of a normal human in comparison proportion & scale, the 10% being in the shoulder area. When matching this over that of a normal human, the problem is evident when trying to accommodate this in comparison to a normal human, Patty's knees fall way shorter. Bill even extends this to show the possibility of using football shoulder pads, and it still cannot match the proportions of a normal human. Bill also extends the comparison image's scale of Patty by 25% , but you still have the arm with bending fingers reaching far lower than the proportions of what a normal human can achieve in a suit. The shoulder joint and base of the neck of Patty require to be shifted forward actually into the neck of a normal human for the eyes of the 'mask' to align with normal human proportions.
DeleteAs for the feet... Clown feet wouldn't have extended toes in the step and wouldn't leave tracks either...
Next.
It's incredible how many things you know about a blurry figure that walks in the distance, a distance that you don't precisely know hou much is. And that would be the most important proportion scaling factor.

What about Roger Patterson buying a gorilla suit? Philip Morris does not claim to have records, only a memory.
Delete"The set-up is this: Our old friend Phillip Morris apparently goes around and tells people what a load a hokum the PGF is based on how he made the costume and all. In order to make his little talk more effective, he reached out to Edmunds to make him a “state of the art” bigfoot suit. Think about that for a second. This is the guy who made the original. In 1967. But to help demonstrate how the PGF figure is a dude in a suit, he turns to a professional costume and effects manufacturer to make him one using 21st century technology and techniques. OK. This thing is, I bet, going to be pretty awesome.
Here’s the PGF-related segment from the show:
www.cryptomundo.com/bigfoot-report/patterson-gimlin-film-debunking-debunked/
"Pretty cool costume. Too bad it looks absolutely nothing like the PGF figure. Hell, it’s not even half as good as the Jack’s Links sasquatch. Also, note the size of the head on the thing and consider that in the context of what Bill Munns told us on BFS 50: The head has to be huge in Edmunds’ suit to fit the head of an actor. The head of the PGF figure is freakishly small."
11:53...
DeleteYou can get a percentage of scale in comparison to that of a normal human, what you cannot attain is the exact height of the subject due to the lens.
Peace.
And what you cannot attain is the exact locations of the joints under the suit. You can't prove shit and you know it.
DeleteNor would clown feet make the 2 inch impressions they found that also had 5 toes, something clown feet do not. The impressions were also far deeper than the twelve hundred pound horses they rode and the depth could only be mirrored by jumping off a 3 foot stumps with smaller diameter heel of cowboy boots.
DeleteTheir was also another set of tracks in the same area.
I have found a 17 inch bigfoot track that was two inches deep and could only make an impression of 1/2 inch by jumping up and down next to it. I am 200 lbs and this was done with in 12 hours of the track actually being made. Someone with clown shoes would have make no impression that could have even been found.
Patterson and Gimlin spent most of their research expeditions in the Mt. St. Helen area, as it was much closer to their home of Yakima and reports were always coming from the Mt. St. Helen area. After John Green and Dahinden came to Bluff Creek upon the advise of Al Hodgson ( Roger advised Hodgson to call him if tracks were ever found in Bluff Creek) as tracks were being found by road crew workers, did Hodgson call Roger Patterson as Hodgson was unsure if the two groups got along. After finding the tracks from Patty and casting, Roger and Bob covered them with tree back in order to stay intact.
10 days after the film, Bob Titmus a legendary tracker came and had little trouble finding the tracks. He followed the tracks where they crossed bluff creek, then an old logging road and finally went up a steep mountain slope ( pretty good trick for clown shoes I would say). Appx. 80 feet above bluff creek Titmus found plain evidence of where the creature had sat down among fern growth, probably to watch Patterson and Gimlin. It then traveled further up the mountainside and away. Titmus was also able to discern that the creature was not following the creek bed but had come down the mountain slope and retreated back up it after encountering Roger and Bob.
Another little know snipet is that Rene Dahinden spent the next 20 years until 1988 trying to disprove the authenticity of the film, and was never able to do it as told to William Jevning and maybe others. He went to his grave in 2001 firmly believing it was not faked. Dahinden told Jevning ( they were personal friends )" I just could not find any kind of evidence of fakery Furthermore, Bob Gimlin is widely known for his honesty, and in addition, just considering the area they were in, it doesn't lend itself easily to a hoax." According to Jevning Dahinden also found many more details strongly pointing to the validity of the film.
My point is if Roger and Bob were going to stage a hoax film they would have done it in a much easier place and it would have been done much closer to home, like Mt. St. Helen as this area had a strong Sasquatch reputation. Also they originally only planned on a two week trip to Bluff Creek and stayed almost three. If they were their to fake a bigfoot they would have done it almost immediately and left.

^sorry still a bloke in a suit
DeleteJoe what did you do with all those pepperoni and cucumbers?
DeleteWould you eat the cheese?
Unlucky guys... You got totally schooled today. Your monkey suit argument where's thinner and thinner every day goes by.
DeleteKetchum knows whos the bigfoots be
ReplyDeleteLol someone please explain to ketchum that she has human contamination and bigfoot don't exist.
ReplyDeleteYes it does, I've seen one. You silly dope. Why are you on a bigfoot blog --- dummy!
Deletebigfoots are human contamination
DeleteWhy is this silly bimbo still given any exposure? Her Camelot moment has come and gone. Waste of time and space.
ReplyDeleteMatt Moneymaker is still on the bigfoot trail
ReplyDeleteAnd STILL finding NOTHING! He IS the biggest ASSHOLE in the BF community, right next to Justin, and Dyer!
Deletethere always bigfoot tracker BOBO
Delete"I would rather be poor and have a clean conscience than to sell out for even that huge a sum of money."
ReplyDeleteWow, just wow.
She only needs one reason: It's a lot easier to swindle money from gullible millionaires like Wally and hordes of gullible poor believers than go through the trouble of being on a reality show. Those are for the exploited, not the exploiter.

ReplyDelete#1 reason TheMelba was not on Bigfoot Bounty?
DeleteNo one fucking asked her!

DeleteMelba Ketchum (DVM) needn't worry as Sasquatch isn't, and will never be in any danger.
ReplyDeletegot some spent shell casings that say different
DeleteIt was even too outlandish for her. Non-credibility + non-credibility = [insert sasquatch joke here].
ReplyDeletethe leader of lunatics...
Deletemain reasons i refused to be on the show
ReplyDelete- they would contaminate my evidence
- i couldn't fit it in my schedule
- finally i didn't want to look like the chief of the chumps.
The real reason- the show is run by undercover government employees who use it as a method to show that her study should be ignored and is illegitimate. It is also a method to keep the sasquatch a myth and its followers a bit crazy.
ReplyDeletethe main reason she is not on the show is that they already have
ReplyDeletebiscuit bakin, barefooted, big butted, big boobed, bovine lookin, blonde bimbos on the show .
And you are unable to score a solitary 1 of those biscuits! I can see why you are so bitter.
Delete"That doesn't bode well for these claims that Patterson had vast resources to create a hoax complete with spinal erectors, hamstring tendons, prehensile fingers, and more."
ReplyDeleteIt is incredible what people manage to see in a grainy film of a bloke in a suit.
FACT:
DeletePatterson admitted on his deathbed that the footage was fake.
STFU B4 I KICK YER ASS HOMO! HE NEVER SAID THAT. MY UNCLE DARYL WHOS MARRIED TO HIS COUSINS SISTERS AUNTIES NIECE IS RELATED TO THE PATTERSONS & THEY ALL SAID ROGER WAS A SCARED & iT WAS ALL REAL NO HOAX
Delete^ " WORD" ^
DeleteI heard the reason that she wasn't on the show was that she was too sore to compete... You know... Sore...
ReplyDeleteO I get it, sore just like your taterhole.
DeleteAll the experts agree bigfoot is real, Moneymaker, Ketchum, Dave Paulides, Jeff Meldrum and others
ReplyDeletefer shure bacon bez bestn fer baitin cawz bigfoots favert bez hogs
ReplyDeleteDo people know about the son she fostered or adopted and gave up? She's not a real stand up gal!
ReplyDelete^ Her X foster child speaking out. She turned him in because he wasn't hairy enough.
Delete^^ how many children have you fostered? It's hard work and few can do it, she at least tried which makes her a better person than you. Oh except for all that sasquatch bullshit.
DeleteEVERYONE PLEASE JUST LEMUR ALONE!
ReplyDeleteThe real reason is that she has nothing!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGuys i think you are missing the obvious question. Melba has done so much for this field. She has given us many impressive DNA samples and results. Her work will help further the future of the bigfoot species. I have to agree with Joe, in that this animal exists and it can be seen in the PGF and Leaping Russian. Melba has helped to prove that. People always question it, yet they miss the biggest point and question of all: If Melba pee'd in your face Joe, would you hold it against her??
ReplyDeletegrow the fuck up, dude!
Deleteid love it if she did that to me i think she's buetiful
