Meldrum Responds: Critical Examination of Standing/Sylvanic Bigfoot Videos
Posted by: Craig Woolheater on December 4th, 2014
In August, Daniel Falconer and Phil Poling issued a critical paper to analyse Todd Standing’s claimed bigfoot videos.
That paper was published here on Cryptomundo: Critical Examination of Standing/Sylvanic Bigfoot Videos
Dr. Jeff Meldrum has issued a response to this critical paper:
I have been challenged and badgered to respond to the criticisms aimed at Todd Standings images. So today I set things aside and wrote a quick and dirty response to Falconer and Poling report. I still have not drawn a conclusion myself, but I am certainly not convinced by their arguments that these are definitely hoaxed. I continue to be dismayed by the tenuous arguments and baseless certitude by so many on this. A lot more work needs to be done.
Let me reiterate — neither my visit to Nordegg for a few days, nor my co-hosting, what I thought turned out to be a very interesting radio show, constitute an endorsement of everything else that Todd has done. I am still considering the evidence.

Yeah, Doc, the Obama “transformation” sure is just as convincing as the Todd Standing version!
Are you kidding me? A little defensiveness is understandable. We all do it. I guess I need to read the entire rebuttal.
Oh lord. Do I have to?
Well, I read it. I must say I’m rather aghast, and disappointed as well. Weak. In my opinion, accusations of fakery are strengthened, not weakened, by Dr. Meldrum’s “rebuttal”.
