New footage, DNA prove Bigfoot exists, group says

Sasquatch Genome Project
"It has been a long and tedious battle to prove that Sasquatch exists. We have had the proof for nearly 5 years but building enough data to convince mainstream science has taken a lot of time."

DeNovo Accelerating Science
"One hundred eleven samples of blood, tissue, hair, and other types of specimens were studied, characterized and hypothesized to be obtained from elusive hominins in North America commonly referred to as Sasquatch. DNA was extracted and purified from a subset of these samples that survived rigorous screening for wildlife species identification."

Bigfoot Is Real, Legit Sounding 'Sasquatch Genome Project' Claims
"A very official "Sasquatch Genome Project" claims to have the goods proving that bigfoot is real — and we're not at all skeptical this will turn out to be a well-crafted hoax like all the other times really real scientists have sworn up and down they have conclusive proof that the cryptozooid is an actual thing that just never happens to drop dead in an area people walk through or get caught, ever."

Bigfoot DNA Tests: Melba Ketchum's Research Results Are Bogus, Claims Houston Chronicle Report
"A Texas vet who claims to have DNA proof that Bigfoot is real went on the attack against a journalist who said her evidence comes from a small woodlands creature."

Why Are Bigfoot Rumors So Persistent?
"Jeff Meldrum wants to search for Bigfoot by using a remote-controlled blimp. Because when you're looking for a mythical creature famous for eluding all who search for it, a giant, buzzing, looming balloon is clearly the way to go."

These two need to stick to reviewing shoes and tapestries

[scotth]

OK, based on the title, i thought you'd actually talk about the DNA "evidence". Nope

[eucerin_perin]

"not enough food to support something that big"
>grizzly bears exist

[raydredX]

Sure, it's bullshit, the facts in the video are fine, but the attitude's totally wrong. Hard to convince someone of something when you treat their belief as a joke from the start.

[FutureSEAL]

I think the Patterson film is all the info we need. Way too good to be a costume, his leg muscles are moving for Christ sake, and the fur looks beyond real as well. There's something out there.

[chrisevans]

Over 50years since the famous Patterson/Gimlin still no one comes close to replicating the movements and walking motion of the creature in the film

2 wanna bes with a living room set up youtube channel trying to debunk a half a million dollar funded project with Internationally recognized forensic scientists on board, and several different labs providing the exact same results.   Yeah...I guess I'll take you about as serious as you do this evidence.

[jimmythekiller]

I think that it's ridiculous to think that we know that there can't possibly be a Bigfoot out there. The fact that almost every single native American tribe has a word for bigfoot in their language gives me pause..

[jamiereid]

that guy hasn't even looked at the dna evidence and he's all freaking out going THERE'S NO BIGFOOT! I just lost a lot of respect for discovery

[GreatPirateSolomon]

Ah, the old self published "scientific journal" trick. I see Bigfoot hunters are taking stuff out of the creationist playbook.

[TheStankDogg]

It's hard to video tape Bigfoot when you're pissing on yourself.

[ryanmiller]

The best part about the patterson film is it actually looks like a guy in a gorilla suit and the guy that was wearing it has said for years it was him and people still believe it is real. . .

[DoctaFortySix]

Guy on the right, goes on like he knows the habitat its suppose to be in, as hes comparing it to gorillas which use all fours and sasquatches don't.

[GreatPirateSolomon]

Right, but we found a new species of whale in the ocean. Finding a new species of large primates in North American forests would be like finding a new species of whales living on a mountaintop.

[wrouillie]

I know he's real, I don't want him found, you'll just kill 'em :(

[lauras]

That's because bigfoots aren't apes. They are a big, hairy race of wild people.

[WildWestSamurai]

-_- Can't believe anyone still believes Bigfoot exists.

[whitelasagna]

-Shows an exclusively bipedal creature-

-Calls it a gorilla-

If any if the videos depicting Sasquatches are real, this creature doesn't appear to have a cranial ridge like apes do. This thing would be far closer to humans than gorillas.

Unless its related to the giant sloth.

Guys I get that your skeptical, but to those of us that have seen one and had interact with thrm, I have to tell you your wrong, they are real, they do exist, and it's all going to come out and ill be one of the fist ppl jumping up and down telling you all, I told ta so. I'm in Ontario Canada, and I've seen and been witness and had a couple encounters, so there's no way your going to tell me I'm wrong, sorry, I really really hope you get to experience it I truly do. I really wish we weren't so scrutinized about it, ppl are so afraid to come forward because of that, it's got to change
