I agree, and purple dragons and unicorns, too. But it isn't going to happen is the harsh reality. Sasquatch on a different planet - sure. Sasquatch at a different time on this planet - sure. Sasquatch in Clackamas, OR or Metropolis, IL - it ain't happening.
We all like it when dreams and creativity are expressed and realized, but I also don't understand why should we should get sad or be in denial about the existence of limits and boundaries on our imagination being expressed in the real world. Art, fiction, myth, and lore are wonderful things just as they are.

Healyje, what is your explanation for all the people whom have reported seeing a Sasquatch over the years, and the tracks found continent wide ?
There are simply too many tracks found in too many places to say they are all faked. Minimum viable population is a solid argument, but it doesn't erase tracks and prevent ongoing sighting reports.
Not to mention Native Indian legends going back who knows how long ?
If bigfoot isnt real, according to you, then is your thesis this is the oldest conspiracy in North America ?
Thousands of liars, continent wide, for a hundred years, myself included ?
For what purpose ? To be ridiculed ?
The paranormal explanations, I agree are hard to swallow, and merely speculation.

a couple of friends saw big foot running down the ridge from unicorn peak. it dove into budd lake and disappeared into a hole that opened up into the middle of the lake. they didn't tell many folks... sh#t sounds crazy
i've never seen one or felt their presence, but i am open to the thought that they could exist.

Srbphotos link to the newspapaer report is interesting. I had heard of that fossilized trackway before. The prints are in the characteristic straight line fashion you see up thread in the Shipton Himalayan photo.
There are some fossilized footprints here in BC near Harrison lake that the Indians say are Sasquatch. I would like to get out and see them one day.
As for BF diving into the lake down a hole, well I don't discount that either. Wierd bigfoot stories are the most interesting, and in my opinion very likely to be true, even though they are always hard to believe.
It's just one world we see but how many dimensions to it are there ?

Well, I have been doing my own research, and this is the closest I've come. Please understand that this is not a joke - this is in PRIME bigfoot country, where more Bigfoots have been found in the state. I do not think they are the same, however, other climbers whom I have shown the picture too who are convinced this is proof of bigfoots existence. We are all confused by the clothing of course. Patterson photo on right. New bigfoot on left.
That's all I got. Looks like Jeff Thomas to me.
BTW, on the phosphorescent grub story above, of course, I was saying that to me, in the pitched black of night - they LOOKED like they were floating, however: as I found out, they were actually on the ground. Interesting phenomena....

It's more probable that humans are of extraterestrial origins while Yeti/Bigfoot is an ancient terrestrial and a master of ancient methods ...
BTW I think had a bigfoot encounter in December 2008 at the Nordic Olympic venue while camping there one night

That's where a buddy of mine had almost the same experience.
He was not some wild-eyed nutjob but rather a geologist of
a very sober mien. He wouldn't talk about it with just anybody.

I am not saying I saw a Bigfoot, but it look like no other creature I have ever seen.
Exactly, how could one identify something unknown to them, or everyone else for that matter
It would explain why no one finds proof There is proof Coz, footprints, hair, photos, video, but certainly no body, no smoking gun. Definately no proof which has been officially accepted by science.
He wouldn't talk about it with just anybody. Thats the smart option, for now.
So I spoke with my friend whom was out hiking 300 days last year, the one who took the photo of the head peeking up behind the stump. He said he got a 5 second video clip last month, hardy a big deal, I know. He sent it to A. Erickson, the Albertan with all the footage. God knows when this stuff is getting released .... supposedly this year.
