Bigfoot

[Dude_Doc]

Do any of you believe that it is possible for this creature to exist? Is it real, or is it a hoax? Anyways, I found a small article about a recent sighting in China:

Well, it's certainly possible for people to be mistaken about this creature. It might have originally been a walking ape (certain species walk on their hind legs all the time), and then exaggerated to a hairy man beast. Most of the so-called "evidences" is fake, but there may be mistaken truth in it.

First of all facts are facts. Maybe 4.5 billion years ago a giant ape was create an as the world turned old so i the ape and grew into a hairy ball.

Well anything's possible, even dragons and faires. But is it probable? Not really. The whole things really not much different then the supposed Jackelope.

i've heard from creditable sources they've found that to be a hoax latter on....

Well actually one of guy's family members have stated that a lot of supposed evidence and hype for bigfoot was a hoax. http://www.thestate.com/mld/state/4675776.htm

And the film probably is as well.

I especially liked this statement:

To use an analogy borrowed from investigator Joe Nickell, just because a small percentage of homicides remain unsolved doesn't mean that we invoke a "homicide gremlin"-appearing out of thin air to take victims' lives-to explain the unsolved crimes. It is not that such cases are unexplainable using known science, just that not enough (naturalistic) information is available to make a final determination.

We should also remember the whole Abbagoochie incident. http://www.museumofhoaxes.com/newsletter/abbagoochie.html

Lot's happening in China, it seems. Within a month, two "monsters" were seen in China, the first a "bigfoot", and now a kind of "Loch Ness". Here's the link:

So, there is one relevant question: what the hell is happening over there?
