Bigfoot, Yeti and Sasquatch: Explained in 60 Seconds
Posted by: Craig Woolheater on October 22nd, 2014
The science Bigfoot, Yeti & Sasquatch’s existence explained. How they evolved, their closest relatives the orangutan & gigantopithecus, and why no proof, definitive sightings or Bones & remains have been found.

I have appeared in or contributed to the following TV programs, documentaries and films:
OLN's Mysterious Encounters: "Caddo Critter", Southern Fried Bigfoot, Travel Channel's Weird Travels: "Bigfoot", History Channel's MonsterQuest: "Swamp Stalker", The Wild Man of the Navidad, Destination America's Monsters and Mysteries in America: Texas Terror - Lake Worth Monster, Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot: Return to Boggy Creek and Beast of the Bayou.
The general consensus is that gigantopithecus walked on all fours like a gorilla, though there is some evidence (the position of the windpipe) that would suggest it walked upright. No hip or leg bones have ever been found. One wonders how it was even determined they were “gigantic.” They could just have had overly large heads.
You will do one hell of a lot worse than that, with the same assignment. I’m not trying it.
The animated Bigfoot pair in this piece are nicely done. In style, they look like what a Bigfoot representation might look like if they were painted by the late great Charles R. Knight. I’m somewhat doubtful about the very human conversation gestures used in the animation though. The other costumes in the video are the usual nonsense that you normally see.
