For YOU Crypto Types - guohua - 09-18-2019 I have enjoyed his informative video. He does do research and admits when he thinks something is fake or a made up story. He also UFO.Aliens and Bigfoot. He does not really consider Bigfoot a Cryptid though I think. RE: For YOU Crypto Types - Mystic Wanderer - 09-18-2019 Oh boy! Some entertainment for later tonight. RE: For YOU Crypto Types - BIAD - 09-18-2019 I had an essay on the first one that I'll have to fish out. The Dogman shouldn't even be contemplated -never mind seen, yet the many reports outweigh the logic. Along with the Sasquatch sightings in the US and other 'Wild Man' accounts from around the world, actually accepting that there maybe something that walks upright and thinks on a similar level as us throws the whole idea of hominid evolution into the air. Is every single sighting a lie or mistaken identity...? because if the answer is no, then our very reality as a species would have to be reset. And where we're supposed to have originated from.

Source RE: For YOU Crypto Types - Mystic Wanderer - 09-19-2019 Those were all great!! Of course, my favorite was the second one about the glimmerman, being as I have seen this "thing" myself. It's great to get validation, or at least have others come forward saying they have seen it too. I know it's one of those things that is hard to believe, and if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I probably wouldn't believe it either. Thanks Ms. G.! Awesome information! (And I did subscribe to his channel.) RE: For YOU Crypto Types - BIAD - 09-22-2019 There's one thing that strikes me in regards of discussing Bigfoot or whatever name one chooses, and that is that it seems like a modern-day phenomena and hence, has no credibility in the academic and scientific community. History is used by man to enhance a certain subject to give it credence and yet when it comes to explaining what thousands of people are seeing during woodland hikes, witnesses describing a large bipedal are mocked by the media and explained away as mistaken identity or a prank from unknown parties. A pragmatic person could suggest the appearance of an elusive 'man-like' creature merely the result of a global society that exists in a better world where fantastical abstract musings can be afforded and I can appreciate that. Maybe -if we ignore any evidence from the past, it's all just a tourist-gambit with the observers not necessarily involved, but the perpetrators performing the act in hope of acquiring fame and wealth through maintaining the Sasquatch belief. Social media and television programmes certainly promote this acceptance with tales of hairy monsters attacking unwary campers and prowling the forests attempting to avoid blurry cameras. An old article from the US. (Notice the stick) Surely we can put the matter to rest due to the usual question from the sceptics and scientists "Where's the body?" -and sadly, the response that the remains of a Bigfoot body would be quickly lost due to nature's ravenous hunger is not enough for today's demand of 'no pics or it didn't happen'! However, the shaggy beast does have some historical evidence, even if those same agnostics attempt to tear down the accounts with assurances that all the tales of yore are merely allegorical and guileful for reasons of religious persuasion. They certainly make sure that cogency comes across. But first, let's set-off in that scientific environment, where the idea of shambling giants are smirked at and microscopes have replaced St.Peter's gates. These guys never make mistakes like putting the skull on the wrong end of a dinosaur skeleton or even wrongly portray these creatures in their manner of balance. No, we cannot be doubted and we eat our own. Take Marcellin Boule, a French paleontologist who discovered a relatively complete skeleton in a cave in the area known as La Chapelle-aux-Saints in France. it was 1908 and unearthing the find, Boule began a three-year study on the remains that culminated in his publication known as 'L’homme fossile de La Chapelle-aux-Saints.' The skeleton included the skull, jaw, most of the vertebrae, several ribs, most of the long bones of his arms and legs plus some of the smaller bones of his hands and feet. The well-preserved skull shows the low, receding forehead, protruding midface, and heavy browridges typical of Homo neanderthalensis. The fossilised fetal position of the discovery and the scattering of flint-tools fitted well with the contemporary knowledge that early man did have some idea of communal existence. Yet academics believed the cave wasn't a living area as we know it, but possibly a place where the the elderly man -who would later produce his bones for Boule, was kept until he was buried there. In his explanation, Marcellin offered evidence of the posture and gait of the being he regarded as Neanderthal. But because of his postulation that such early hominid must have struggle to walk upright -due to his findings from the shape of the spine and other bones, we now see the stereotypical 'caveman' as a brutish being without contemplation and animal-like. It's said that Boule made an error due to missing the gross deforming osteoarthritis in the bones and science rushed in to show how this disease was the obvious reason the French fossil-hunter described such walking habits. Historians of science have argued that Boule’s story is an example of bias and preconceived ideas influencing scientific study of fossils and creating an accepted belief to the mainstream culture of a dolt-like creature that behaved with no real difference from other animals. The media of our time still show this appearance and with lack of body-hair on the dumb-ass caveman, it gives us a feeling of progress, an assurance of being better. And that's one of the main problems that the current scientific community, the lack of hair. The Scientific American explains why. Quote:What is the latest theory of why humans lost their body hair? Why are we the only hairless primate?Scientific American: So Bigfoot can't exist. Bigfoot cannot be real because it walks upright like man, looks like a primate -and if it belongs on our evolutionary tree, it should've lost its legendary 'fur' like we did. We did and that is the rule. ................................. There was this guy back in the 13th century called Ugolino di Conti. He later became known as Pope Gregory IX and came up with the idea of inquisitions to discourage heresy. But being eductated in Paris and Bologna, one would wonder why such an industrious Roman Catholic leader would be mentioned here. During his busy papacy of being God's right hand, he instructed a Spanish Dominican friar called Raymond of Penyafort to scribble a few pages in order of replacing past collections of Canon Law. These texts became known as 'The Decretals of Gregory IX' Of course, no works of religious literature would be complete without illustrations and in these exciting images, a creature that Europe labelled 'The Woodwose' can be seen. In modern day parlance, we might call it Bigfoot. A knight slaying a wild man and rescuing a lady, who goes off with another knight. The second knight is slain by a third and the woman attacked by bears. The weirdness of this is that in most of the medieval artwork, the Woodwose carries a large staff and in many Youtube Sasquatch/Wild Man videos, a large stick is often seen leaning against a tree. If it's all fake, then at least someone is doing their homework! So who's correct? The Catholic Church celebrated the hairy man of the forests and ignored the fact that it should've lost it's fur due to hominid logic. Science says it's all wishful thinking and rednecks in gorilla suits. The scales of reason cannot help. The thing is, if and when Bigfoot is finally proven and is possibly attached to our maturation as a species, what will it mean for science's history? What will it mean to the current 'ethnic-rage' and our understanding of where we came from? Maybe Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves was right when he murmured to himself regarding Will Scarlett... "I have a brother?" RE: For YOU Crypto Types - Mystic Wanderer - 09-22-2019 @"BIAD", that story (above) reminds me of Esau, the eldest son of Isaac and Rebekah, and twin brother of Jacob from the KJV bible. Esau was born with thick fur on his body and Jacob was "normal". After the twins became adults, Jacob went to his father, who was blind, and tricked him into giving him what should have been Esau's birthright by wearing goat hair around his arms. When his father felt the fur, he thought Jacob was Esau and gave him the property. So, you see, these hairy men were even discussed in the bible. I found your information in the above post very interesting. Thanks for sharing. RE: For YOU Crypto Types - guohua - 09-22-2019 @"BIAD" That was interesting. But what can happen if attacked and why do some attack and others don't? I was wondering if this could be a Werewolf incident or Bigfoot.

G RE: For YOU Crypto Types - BIAD - 09-23-2019 @Guohua. There are no Government-backed official 'Sasquatch attack' accounts that I can find and this should be something that is discussed. The reasons are obvious I suppose, because to to general public it indicates that these alleged creatures are just that, alleged. But to some, that would also be suggested as the exact reason they're not recognised by officialdom! Before I go on, I do believe such large bipeds exist as I also believe they're capable of seeing the world in the manner we do as humans. I think we underestimate their mental aptitude due to our bias of believing 'hair-covered' is a sign that these beings are animal-like and ergo think like other forest animals we encounter. To put it another way, our arrogance as top predator stifles us appreciating their existence. If Bigfoot doesnt desire a fast car and a nice house, he must be therefore, doltish and incapable of self-improvement. I also believe this is why we're incapable of collecting decent imagery of them, they might not know what we're thinking, but they may well know how we think. It would be easy to broach the situation of why Government and scientific bodies do not recognise the Sasquatch as a real entity with the obvious answer is that they don't exist. There's never any irrefutable evidence and all witnesses' accounts can be placed under the two catagories of mistaken-identity and trickery. Both titles have stock as a shape in the woods can be anything and with a recent account of Randy Lee Tenley dressed in a Gillie suit being run over by a vehicle in Montana -whist attempting to incite a Bigfoot sighting, hoaxing can make any interested party decide the whole thing is fake. Some reports have offered the idea of a professional outfit of military personnel that come in and 'clean up' a dangerous situation involving angry beasts and terrified hunters or Bigfoot enthusiasts who unwittingly enter an area these creatures are believed to deem their own. But again, no ironclad evidence is presented and it doesn't matter how earnest a telephonic-voice is on a podcast, the general public need more that tones of concern. Then such testimony becomes nothing more than entertainment. Of course, if there is any credibility to these reports of black-clad military men policing out-of-control Sasquatch situations and the knowledge is being deliberately repressed, then it's a dangerous tactic in itself if it is ever properly exposed. Staying with that assumption, the question of why such suppression of a Sasquatch reality must be asked. Bears and mountain lions are dangerous and even though they tend to avoid encounters with humans, Government-approved agencies provide information to -not only protect tourists, but assist in maintaining the animals' existence. In the Bigfoot fellowship, it's often proposed that the scientific and ministerial communities refuse to recognise Sasquatch's presence due to the world-changing reality that our standard premise of humanity could effect many aspects of global control. Our paradigm of who we are and where we came from would not only need revision, it could take us into areas of thought that could seriously damage the journey that mankind is supposed to take. We covet, we acquire and we conquer, this who we are and what we do. Humans see inertia for a species as perilous and could lead to the decay of the fabric we call civilisation. This -in the corridors of rationalism and control cannot be allowed. There are plenty of examples where it's reported that human were attacked, but every time, the definite proof fails to appear. Take the Ape Canyon account. July, 1924. A small prospector's pine-log cabin in a gorge southeast of Mount St. Helens in the state of Washington. Five men looking for gold in the area, were attacked by a group of Sasquatch during the night after going outside earlier for water and encountering a seven-foot tall creature. (An obvious 'Posed-For' photograph from a newspaper of that time.) Fred Beck -one the men in the cabin at the time, stated: "...The only time we shot our guns that night was when the creatures were attacking our cabin. When they would quiet down for a few minutes, we would quit shooting. I told the rest of the party, that maybe if they saw we were only shooting when they attacked, they might realise we were only defending ourselves..." Why would one think like that...? Why assume an animal -because that's how Sasquatch is generally perceived, would understand that the actions of the prospectors were merely a defensive behavior? To consider this as a possibility is to accept that the rock -throwing shaggy brutes outside the cabin had high-thinking mental processes than involved morality and astuteness. Fred Beck. Mr. Beck added in an interview that he recalled a fellow-cabin-dweller singing "If you leave us alone, we'll leave you alone, and we'll all go home in the morning!" and Mr. Beck had the the impression that the "Mountain Devils" as he called them, might understand his friend's crooning and go away. Again, there's the hint that these men believed their attackers were perceptive to alternatives of outcome. When daylight approach, the assault stopped and cautiously emerging from the damaged cabin, Fred Beck alleged he shot at one of the apelike creatures that was standing about eighty yards away near the edge of Ape Canyon. He states his target toppled over the cliff and down into the gorge, some four hundred feet below. Gathering some supplies, the quintet left the area and made for a Ranger's Station at Spirit Lake. However, Bill Welch -the Ranger could not assist them in identifying what they'd seen. Later -after returning to Kelso in Washington, the media raced in and advertised that "Mountain Devils" or "America's Abominable Snowmen" were roaming this particular area of Washington State. This brought big game hunters hurrying to catch themselves a unique trophy and a tourism boom as well. Mr. Beck accompanied a detective two reporters from Oregon back to the location, but apart from footprints, no bodies were found. Today, there still a hunt, but now it's for the cabin that seems to have been burnt down and disappeared. Again, possible lost evidence. This account follows many others where vital proof never surfaces and all we're left with are verbal anecdotes and elusive questions. Did Mr. Beck and his comrades believe that the mere ability of these creatures being upright, with thumbs and organisational skills to attack in a group warranted the title of 'human-like'? If their assailants were bears, would he have thought that bears would be capable of the 'defence' reasoning he suggested? There must be an assumption, an easily-reached-for inference that such creatures think on a level similar to man. But even though this may be true, our first goal is to produce intransigent evidence that Sasquatch exists. And to do that, we -the general public, may have to sadly perform an act that the Sasquatch are certain we would resort to, and kill one. ................................ @Gordi. Quote:hmmm.... but doesn't the big fella still live IN the forests and deep woods (as opposed to roaming the I agree, the theory of hair-loss for our ancestors is a bit flaky at best. It would imply that only our section of primates had the where-with-all to lose our pelt in favour of certain environments. Academia seems fine with allowing acceptance that the dumb-assed Chimps, slow-witted Orangutans and the clown-car Gorillas are following their animal brethren and we are somehow 'special' I suppose science and religion aren't that far-apart after all!! One would be tempted to ask if shedding of one's weather-resistance is so logical, then is there evidence of Himalayan-people or those of the Arctic regions evolving in reverse in regards of hair-growth! I'd like to call bullsh*t on that theory. With the mole-rat's remarkable abilities, all I can suggest is that it may well be that Boy In A Dress is somehow related to them! RE: For YOU Crypto Types - BIAD - 09-24-2019 When I wrote earlier about a 'hidden' reality belonging Governments in order to ridicule the idea of such a creature we know as Bigfoot, I think I should expand on that area somewhat. To convince a public that such a phenomena doesn't exist, one doesn't need the whole of the communications system to 'be in on it'. It would be easy to assume that if the media treat a Bigfoot sighting as light-hearted and dubious, someone in the echelon of the companies may know the truth and aware of the fallout if the reality was exposed. But you don't need a global conspiracy to thwart the revelation of a giant creature wandering the forests of the world, you just need the simple lack of evidence. This is where the wall of belief stands strong due the amount of false starts when a sighting is first reported usually assures interest quickly wanes. As you see from the Ape Canyon example, it always seems that when it comes to physical evidence, it's not the media that ignore it, it's the convenient occurrence that a dead body has disappeared, forensic material is either corrupted or belongs to a known animal and the teller of the experience has nothing except their testimony of the experience. Visual evidence -such as recorded footage of these creatures is also not reliable. The famous Patterson-Gimlin of 1967 consisted of two reels and as of writing, the original footage is missing. Youtube is abound with blurred scenes and doubtful insistence that the shadows among some leaves are Bigfoot watching the watcher! .......................... A genetic test performed on donated samples in 2014 by The Institute of Human Genetics, Wolfson College, University of Oxford with assistance from several museums, didn't help the debate over whether such creatures exist. Here's their findings. Table 1. Origin and GenBank sequence matches of hair samples attributed to anomalous primates. (All sequence matches were 100%.) Hair samples submissions were solicited from museum and individual collections in a joint press release issued on 14 May 2012 by the Museum of Zoology, Lausanne and the University of Oxford. A total of 57 samples were received and subjected to macroscopic, microscopic and infrared fluorescence examination to eliminate obvious non-hairs. This excluded one sample of plant material and one of glass fibre. Of the screened samples, 37 were selected for genetic analysis based on their provenance or historic interest.

On the internet, there's always the idea that when a group or individual questions a 'wished-for' notion, it's really a faceless Government office is subtly dissolving the confidence and commitment of a belief, and at times I can see it does have merit. But what about the families of these bureaucrats...? Does working for such control-departments demand a life of deceit and denial? The evidence for a unknown species of large ape-like creatures living beside modern man is just not there at this time and even though I believe in them, the critical world of science demands more than just faith. But if we do grasp that conviction and accept that out there in the woods, there is a large bipedal being with the capacity for introspection and the capability to maintain a distance from humans, then the question of what the reality of Bigfoot could mean to Joe Q. Public may arise. According to most anthropologists, the major divisions in the species of human are three-to-four basic differences. Ethnographic division into races from Meyers Konversationslexikon of 1885-90 is listing: Caucasian races (Aryans, Hamites, Semites) Mongolian races (northern Mongolian, Chinese and Indo-Chinese, Japanese and Korean, Tibetan, Malayan, Polynesian, Maori, Micronesian, Eskimo, American Indian), Negroid races (African, Hottentots, Melanesians/Papua, “Negrito”, Australian Aborigine, Dravidians, Sinhalese) There's also 'Australoid', which some still debate can be classed as separate or just stay within the Negroid category. Now if we go along with the 'Out-Of-Africa' theory that around 270,000 years ago -or a more recent proposal that humans explored other lands 1.8 to 0.5 million years ago, our basic ancestors migrated from Africa and began to populate other regions of the planet, then where does Bigfoot fit in with this conventional pattern of human dispersal? Separation of culture, physical appearances and social development are generally believed to have taken place after this disjointed movement and even though it could be offered that our Bigfoot retained it's early humanoid appearance and left within the given time-frames, then why are similar-descriptive sightings reported from all over the world? As of to-date, there's been no archaeological discoveries of bones to connect Sasquatch to the humanoid evolutionary tree and as the readings above suggest, no scientific evidence that he's with us now. Footprints, vague photography and anxious verbal accounts can be persuasive to someone who wants Bigfoot to be real, but the established judges will not accept such evidence, it's simply not enough. Apart from hair-colour variances, Bigfoot is Bigfoot! Tall, hairy and elusive. The archetypal giant that avoids human interaction. The obvious answer to this whole situation would be that this creature belongs in mythology and serves as a vehicle for warnings to children, nothing more. An alternative notion could be that Bigfoot isn't a 'cousin' of ours and that just can't be, that would ruin everything! But what if the parameters of the traditional structure of where we originated from are flawed...? What if there is another 'division' to add to the ethnographic list? It would mean such an error could drastically alter the global perception of humanity and that established strata that we live in today could seriously effect -not only religions, but who we are as main custodians of Earth. Bigfoot may not know how to drive a car, but what if he has rational beliefs that counter our own accepted doctrines? The way we treat each other due our differences now is bad enough, how do approach a relation of humans that thinks in an entirely different pattern of living? Would that problem be worth a combined effort to ban Bigfoot from the world stage? I'm sure a selfish, conscientious and malevolent group of upright animals would arrive at a rational conclusion and take into consideration of our current society. I'm sure you know what the answer would be. Jeez... and then there's the DogMan! (Next?) RE: For YOU Crypto Types - Mystic Wanderer - 09-24-2019 @"BIAD" , you put a lot of time and research into your replies above, and for that I applaud you. Great work! My answer isn't quite as detailed when I say, I simply believe the scientists are withholding the true results from us from their studies on "Bigfoot hair". They do it with medicinal cures, so why not Bigfoot? Everything they tell us is a paid-for lie. RE: For YOU Crypto Types - guohua - 09-24-2019 @"BIAD" Damn, that is an extensive and very in depth report. RE: For YOU Crypto Types - BIAD - 09-24-2019 @Mystic & Guohua.
