Mystery Man Photo IQ
Posted by: Loren Coleman on June 15th, 2007
Can you identify the cryptozoologist? This recent photograph of a cryptozoologist was taken in the wilds of Washington State. What’s your CZ IQ? Do you know whom this person is?
If you are immediately aware, because you know this person, please hold off with an instant answer. Allow others to have a bit of speculative Friday fun. Thanks.
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.
Jon Thomas Beckardi?
The Brawny paper towel guy?
Well, it’s not me! Different mystery man. 🙂
Wow kinda looks like my brother. Hmmm, judging by the red beard he is most likely Irish or Scottish decent. Although he does have a Roman nose. Honestly I do not know for sure but in the case I might be right I do not want to ruin it for everyone else.
Well, I never thought it would ever happen, but it looks to me like Sasquatch finally made a hoaxed human photo.
It’s obvious that the hat is hiding the conical head shape.
Lots of heavy clothing covering up the body hair.
Seems pretty grainy to be a recent photo, probably because the Sasquatch holding the camera was laughing too hard to focus.

How about Paul? Bunyan that is!
Looks like Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull to me, circa 1970. Can’t tell from the picture but I bet he’s standing on one leg!
So, do we ever find out? Here I was thinking for a minute that mystery_man’s odyssey of revelation was going to continue. (I’d use my vacation time to go to Hokkiaido before Washington State. But that might just be me.) 😀
An otter !?!
I agree, DWA. Who is it! This thread is on the second page now and still no word. It’s driving me nuts! 🙂
Ok since we don’t have an answer yet, it looks allot like a young Loren Coleman, at least in the nose and the brau just above the nose. Dunno, that’s my guess. But I have to admit that shaved sasquatch comment is one of the funniest comments I have read here. I was laughing so loud I woke the baby.
John “crazy man” Beckjord?
Loren, did you post a response?
