'10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty' Judges Skeptical of Hunter's New Claims By Robert Chan

One of the judges from Spike's new "10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty" calls Rick Dyer's assertion that he shot and killed a Sasquatch last year "completely worthless."

"Dude, I'm not going to take your word [for] it or your crappy picture. Show us real data," says Todd Disotell, a professor of anthropology at New York University who also runs NYU's Molecular Anthropology Laboratory.

Of course, Dyer's case is probably hurt by the fact that he was responsible for a Bigfoot hoax back in 2008, not to mention that he was a used car salesman before that and plans to go on tour with the now-stuffed body (which he says he shot in Washington, not San Antonio, as originally reported). "The second profit pops into science, science goes squiggly," concluded Disotell. "It's strange that he chose to have it taxidermied rather than have better-preserved live samples sent for testing," said Natalia Reagan, a primatologist who co-judges "Bounty" with Disotell and actor Dean Cain.

It’s the same cock and bull scam as the chupacabra stories, a DNA analysis is never produced and all photos are blurry and grainy. You really have to work hard to produce poor quality images as bad as the usual “evidence”.

The picture I saw looked like one of the nasty germs or snot in one of the cold commercials.

Bin Laden was dead long before Obama killed him.

The TRUE Magazine link leads to an article by Ivan Sanderson, who later (in the 70s I believe) wrote a book titled Abominable Snowmen; Legend Come To Life. A good read, lots of evidence presented.

Conclusion: It’s real, it’s rare, it’s not ape nor is it human. And it’s smart enough to try to avoid us whenever possible. My money is on Gigantopithecus having survived instead of going extinct as did the Neanderthals.

When you find the source for your made up claim that the SEALS who killed Osama have been murdered, you be sure and post that, OK?

By the way, did they also track down and murder the U.S.Army Special Operations men who were on the raid?

Look, you posted something that isn’t accurate, the SEALS who killed Osama have not been hunted down and murdered, nor have the Army Special Ops with them.

I read I T Sanderson’s books back in the mid 1960s. He wrote lots of articles for various magazines at that time.
