Here’s a stunner … ‘Bigfoot’ find was a hoax

bigfoot.jpg

The truth has come out about that supposed Bigfoot corpse found in northern Georgia. It’s a big fake, which is no surprise to those skeptical of the reported find.

BBC News has this video of “Bigfoot” thawing out. Researchers with Searching for Bigfoot bought the “carcass,” encased in ice, for an undisclosed sum.

But as it thawed, the “corpse” turned out to be a rubber ape outfit, which is what I thought it looked like from an initial photograph (seen at right).

Read more in this Associated Press story.

There’s also more on the Searching for Bigfoot Website, in which the researchers say they are upset at the deception.

The video that shows the hoax/costume Bigfoot looks NOTHING like the original pictures that were released. The pictures of the original creature, and the costume, are NOT the same object! Don’t take my word for it, look at the pictures and video here:

Why are these people trying to dismiss the original photographs by showing us a costume that looks nothing like the original creature?
