Once while hiking in Jedidiah State Park I heard the forest go quiet. Not even a breeze. I felt like I was in a vacuum except the air around me was crackling with static electricity. I felt the sense of impending doom like I was being stalked or sized up by a predator. I upholstered my sidearm, a .500 Smith with a 6 inch barrel and waited. After about 10-15 minutes the forest sounds went back to normal. I took a deep breath and thinking whatever danger was present had passed, I sighed and started to holster my weapon when to my horror Jerry Cline ran out of the trendline on all fours as fast as a chimpanzee. He charged me and was on me in 2.5 seconds, (except in my mind it played out in slow motion). He then reached for my junk. I'd prefer to tell the rest of the encounter that day since I am receiving counseling for PTSD. Moral of story; not just the big fellas reach out and try and grab you.
Kittalia A. sent us the following questions about Patty, the Bigfoot in the Patterson-Gimlin film. They are all very good questions that we we wish we knew the answers to. We're no "Henry May" and it's times like this that we wish we had his number. Since we don't have Henry around whenever we need him, here are some easy questions for all you Patterson-Gimlin believers to try and answer:
Thanks to Matt Moneymaker for sharing this story with us from a guy named Thomas S. who was camping with some friends near the French Meadows Reservoir in August 2012. This remote, forested basin is located on the American River approximately 58 miles east of Auburn in the Sierra Nevada's. Before his encounter, the man thought Bigfoot "was just for entertainment purposes", but he changed his tune when he ended up with messy drawers that night. "That will teach to goof on our show," says Matt.
Uh Oh. Here we go again, folks. M.K. Davis originally brought up this theory called the "Bluff Creek massacre" theory back in 2008 at a conference. The controversial theory was immediately rejected by the Bigfoot community and Davis was shunned from ever speaking about it again. According to Davis, based on his expert film analysis and color enhancements of frame 352 of the PG film, he theorizes that the Patterson party had been to the Bluff Creek site at least once before returning to capture their famous Bigfoot video. His theory also suggests that the party probably murdered a family of Bigfoots and buried their bodies. Davis points to an enhanced anomaly resembling a bloody dog print and a pool of blood as proof of his theory.
