New York Bigfoot Baby Video
Posted by: Craig Woolheater on November 24th, 2005
In today’s issue of the Times Herald-Record there is an article about the video shot in 1997 by Doug Pridgen at an outdoor rock concert. It was submitted to the BFRO in December of 2003. I saw the video myself over a year ago. While I found it interesting, it is not conclusive evidence of anything. The object swings from the tree looking like a chimp or a monkey, which is a more likely scenario.
The newspaper requires you to register to be able to read the article. It is a free registration.
The alleged Bigfoot’s baby pictures were captured inadvertently in 1997 by a Lembo Lake camper identified as Doug Pridgen, who was videotaping a friend while attending a rock concert at the lake. While transferring the videotape to a different format a few years ago, Pridgen’s girlfriend noticed two ape-like figures, one smaller than the next, cavorting in some trees about 100 feet behind Pridgen’s friend.

Fellow Cryptomundo blogger Rick Noll has done quite a bit of work with the video. Let’s see if he will weigh in on it…

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.
Did anyone ever go to the site, visit the tree and look for a rope swing? Under the circumstances, and especially after viewing the neighborhood (it appears to be well inside the city) the first thing I’d think of is a kid on a rope swing.
Visiting the tree might also make a general estimate of size possible, though I’m guessing that wouldn’t be very helpful in this case.
No matter what’s in that video, it doesn’t help anyone prove the existence of bigfoot. So I say, “next!”
Happy Thanksgiving Cryto guys!
Not sure why I forgot the p. I think I type faster than my brain works. I meant Crypto guys.
