Witness Says Bigfoot Might Be Squatting In Detroit's Abandoned Houses
The Huffington Post. Ashley Woods. 18.September.2014
You're a nice family driving through the outskirts of Detroit, shopping for a new house. What you don't expect to see on your real estate tour: a "strange, ape-like creature" climbing out of the window of an abandoned home.
A man named C. Brown told Cryptozoology News that he, his wife and two children spent three hours in the car last Thursday, searching for a new neighborhood to move to in Detroit. Not finding anything suitable, they decided to turn around and head home. Passing by a two-story blue home with broken windows, Brown's wife saw something moving inside. They slowed the vehicle to get a better look.
From Cryptozoology News, where you can read the full story of The Browns' sighting:
The mythical creature referred to as Bigfoot or, alternatively, Sasquatch and Yeti, has a history of being spotted in Michigan -- although sightings of the man-sized animal are rare. In 1990, footprints measuring two feet wide and a foot long were spotted in snow covering a vacant lot in the city."We see this hairy arm reaching out the window. I say what the hell, he gonna get cut that dude with the broken glass, man. Then a whole body coming out the window, looked like a monkey, only big damn monkey with a stick on the hand. Maybe about 7-ft tall. It had short, reddish hair. But hold on, the face was human looking, as crazy as it sounds. My wife kept telling me to drive away, so we did. I got to see the animal’s eyes and all, big and dark, with a huge head, like a triangle shape, kinda, know what I mean?"
Last month, a man in Midland, Mich. approached authorities with evidence including alleged Bigfoot scat, empty pizza boxes and photos, which he says proves that Bigfoot had been shape-shifting and eating pizza on his property for almost a decade.
The state's much less populated Upper Peninsula has been the location for two recent televised Bigfoot scoutings. On Spike TV's "10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty: 36 Hours Of Hell," which aired last week, two teams staged a 36-hour hunt for the mythical creature in the wilderness near Lake Superior, armed with a baby doll soaked in cow's blood (strange that didn't work out). In January, Animal Planet interviewed people who claim to have spotted the bear-sized animal in cities across the Upper Peninsula.
Were they looking at them the right way?The Huffington Post said:..In 1990, footprints measuring two feet wide and a foot long were spotted in snow covering a vacant lot in the city.
There are two other programmes which I've not seen yet, one from the Himalayas and one from Russia..
is it worth selling my soul to channel 4 in order to watch it?
Fisherman Says He Saw Bigfoot Bathing ... And He Sent Us A Picture!
One occupational hazard of reporting on unexplained phenomena: You can always count on waking up in the morning to find an email from someone swearing that they've just seen Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, a hybrid human alien or a UFO on the moon.
2015 began with a photo from John Rodriguez, a 66-year-old retired electrician, who claims that he was fishing Dec. 26 on the Hillsborough River near northeast Tampa, Florida, and came upon an incredible sight.
"I fish for gar in the river and I bring my camera to take pictures of the birds and what not. I heard a squishing sound, looked over and saw this thing walking through the water and crouch down in the duck weed. It did not look like a guy in a suit -- it was definitely an animal. I took this picture and got out of there as fast as I could."
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/...hing_n_6407272.html?ncid=txtlnkusaolp00000592So, what are we to make of this fantastic tale? Did Rodriguez take the clearest, most definitive picture to date of Bigfoot?
Not so fast, according to Ben Hansen, lead investigator of the Syfy Channel's "Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files" series.
"It's a relief to finally have a clear picture of the creature," Hansen, a former FBI agent, told HuffPost. "Every other photo and video we get is usually too blurry or the Bigfoot too obscured in brush to allow for any useful identification. Thanks to the clear photo, I'm excited to announce that the photographer has captured a real-life... gorilla in a Bigfoot suit!"
"To be more precise, the face of a gorilla that has been digitally added to the photo with editing software. Although I originally suspected the creature suit was actually in the water when the photo was taken, I started to notice shadows in front of the Bigfoot that appeared to be an inconsistent length and shape with the rest of the photo."
I like the phrase, 'For those who do believe, you really can't get much better than this.' Because I've seen much better video footage than that for some pretty rare animals. I've got a David Attenborough boxset of DVDs that's full of much better video footage of all kinds of creatures. And, that's the kind of thing I'd be looking for before I'd say you couldn't get much better.Here is the video of the "skunk ape" which raised the snark from Huffpo
Beg to differ. In Healey and Cropper's "The Yowie - in Search of Australia's Bigfoot", they devote a great deal of coverage to aboriginal legends (in which, despite several dialectic names, the description of a large hairy hominid is startlingly consistent) and then to colonial reports dating from the mid 19th Century, made by white pioneers, in which Yowie appearance and behaviour is also remarkably consistent, and indeed remains so to the present day. They document (and carefully source-cite) about 300 sightings.
And, once again like Bigfoot, many of the sightings are by trained observers: soldiers, cops - and again of which many are people who know what they're looking at - wildlife rangers, guides, etc.
I find it harder to accept a sociological or cultural explanation for the Yowie, and indeed Bigfoot, than to accept a biological one TBH.
So Bigfoot eats birdseed? I dunno. It just looks like a chap draped in a black sheet to me.Every year the fruit just seemed to disappear overnight off my apple and pear trees. Also the birdseed used to vanish without a trace. I thought it was raccoon or something and so I set up a camera. This is what it was caught on camera. You can make up your own mind as to what it is.
It was handy that the person filming it just happened to have there camera on a tripod and pointing at the window though ...So Bigfoot eats birdseed? I dunno. It just looks like a chap draped in a black sheet to me.

Maybe so to be fair. I wonder what that silver looking garden furniture is in the background .. the object on the left looks a bit like an alien head sculpture....or maybe he had witnessed something strange on his land, several times before.
