A Hoax?

Image via Wikipedia Tomorrow the truth behind the Bigfoot remains found in Northern Georgia will be revealed to the world. I am as skeptical as the next person and after seeing the recent extra terrestrial footage I am not convinced by the image of the Bigfoot. Matthew Whitton, a police officer, and Rick Dyer, a former corrections officer, who, along with veteran bigfoot tracker Tom Biscardi of Searching for Bigfoot, Inc., said they came across the seven-foot, seven-inch (2.3-meter), 500-pound (227-kilogram) body of a simian like creature in the woods (source).

A press conference has been called at the Cabana Hotel - Palo Alto tomorrow where they are expected to produce DNA evidence to back up their claim. If this is true I will light a candle for the Henderson family as this will surely go down as one of the findings of the century. Biscardi was behind a previous Big foot hoax so many people believe we are going to end up with a similar conclusion. Here are details from the press release;

DNA evidence and photo evidence of the creature will be presented in a press conference on Friday, August 15th from 12 Noon to 1:00pm at the Cabana Hotel-Palo Alto at 4290 El Camino Real in Palo Alto, California, 94306. The press conference will not be open to the public. It will only be open to credentialed members of the press.

Here are some of the vital statistics on the “Bigfoot” body:

*The creature is seven feet seven inches tall.

*It weighs over five hundred pounds.

*The creature looks like it is part human and part ape-like.

*It is male.

*It has reddish hair and blackish-grey eyes.

*It has two arms and two legs, and five fingers on each hand and five toes on each foot.

*The feet are flat and similar to human feet.

*Its footprint is sixteen and three-quarters inches long and five and three-quarters inches wide at the heel.

*From the palm of the hand to the tip of the middle finger, its hands are eleven and three-quarters inches long and six and one-quarter inches wide.

*The creatures walk upright. (Several of them were sighted on the same day that the body was found.)

*The teeth are more human-like than ape-like.

*DNA tests are currently being done and the current DNA and photo evidence will be presented at the press conference on Friday, August 15th.
