Here is what the videomaker putua76 says about the above:
I was on a logging road in Ketchikan hiking with my friend when I saw it! Boy did my heart start racing!! It was about 40 yards from the road! Not sure if it knew I was there or not, because the noise of flowing water from the stream. It seemed to travel fast! It made my hair stand up!! At one point you can see a whitish yellowish thing in it’s hand! I believe it was skunk cabbage. Not sure, but it is in bloom.
You see it jump and after that point it just seems to disappear. There was a lot of brush and trees between it and I, I could not tell where it had gone. It was a scary sort of exciting feeling at the same time!! We went to search for tracks but the river bed where we thought it was walking was full of perfect skiping rocks, we found no prints! If there is a Bigfoot, Sasquatch, or Kushtaka I swear I saw him!!putua76
Alaskan media is picking up on the story and publishing comments such as this one: “According to the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, this would be the first reported sighting of a Bigfoot in Ketchikan, although there have been 21 previous sightings in Alaska, eight of which have occurred in Fairbanks or Southeast Fairbanks.”

About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
DWA …….Well?
a personal and sincere observation no less! …I really can see acres of fabric at 23 secs!
I’m disappointed that you can’t. But for now will you keep on trying?
It could be your secret eureka moment!
Regards.
I’m not seeing how it could be non-bipedal (“bear,” e.g.); the subject seems to maintain a striding gait each time we catch a glimpse of it, plus it definitely seems to be carrying something white.
Also regarding the “eye”–the size seems to be way too large to match the subject in the other frames proportionately.
I realize this post is a bit late in the writing. I hope that there is continued interest in this video and its enhancement. I don’t have the time to gleam every topic at the site…wish I did and wish I had seen this clip sooner.
Over the years I have seen, (as I’m sure many of you have, hence my post) many supposed sasquatch videos. Occasionally I run across that same gait, uncanny posture and as well a certain something I can’t quite explain, upon viewing a particular clip. The particular impressions created as a result, is a very particular culmination of several traits, which when combined scream ‘Authentic’. The traits can be alluded to as, confident, aggressive, determined, and of great physical strength, agile, deft, fast, vigilant and bold yet secretive. These impressions are created against the background of a very noticeable and particular peculiar gait and posture.
The tiny glimpse we get at 0:05-0.06 in the video is a perfect example of this set of impressions I’m left with. I’ve related the same feeling in regard to other videos and referenced in other posts here on Cryptomundo. Interestingly the subject videos depicting these impressions are all similar in their particular circumstances.
If what I’m being impressed with is indeed real; then the sasquatch is an extraordinarily magnificent creature which could never be kept in captivity, say, as gorillas are.
One of the very important things I’ve come to rely upon in successfully hunting big game is to listen to, and often, follow this still, quiet inner voice, (Hunches?). It has proven itself countless times over the years, and it seems the more remote the habitat the more important (and louder) this hunch-voice becomes, sometimes to the point of seemingly screaming, (often in cases where imminent danger lurks?).
Scientific? No, at least not in the way we normally understand it. An absolute reality? Absolutely, and without question!
In my humble opinion and based on what I explain above; the video is most probably authentic.
I’m on the fence. The subject in question leaps from higher ground to lower ground just like an ape, but the cameraman narrates his thoughts and feelings like a parathetical screenplay.
As pointed out on this website,
you can see what appears to be an eye blinking…
I don’t have software to slow down the video but it sure looks like an eye blinking to me..
and it doesn’t look like a human eye since there are no “whites” of the eye..
looks like something with a grey skinned face looking back at the camera..and blinking right before he turns away..
Anyone have software to slow down and analyze this?
