“My opinion”…. I suspect it’s most likely a family pet (cat) or possibly a Raccoon on top of the shed or whatever the dwelling is behind the tree looking for a way to jump down safely. Plus the daytime angle is not the same as the Night shot angle, It’s close but not the same. I can also tell he over-enhanced the night footage slightly to make it look like those are eyes peering from behind the pile. If you look closely you can see another animal behind the supposed eyes of Sasquatch between 1:17 – 1:23 of the video., Looks like another cat to me watching the other cat on the roof. anyway thanks Mr. Coleman… Best wishes

Regarding the thermal imaging, I asked on youtube if the “hand” could be a rodent, maybe a ferret. The poster of course said, “To me, the arm doesn’t look like a ferret; one can see the fingers cupping the end of the board.”
I’ll grant him that, “one” can see they’re fingers — but no one else can.

Did the elderly gent claiming to see these ‘creatures’ outside his house suffer cataracts?
If so, a possible case of Charles Bonnet Syndrome?

my comment is solely on the radio interview. i dont do that whole facebook crap or myspace “BS”. So with that being said. i will make this comment. The Old man sounded honest. He even said his Sister was sick and suffered from dementia. They grilled him pretty well. It wasnt no FBI investigation but it was pretty good. BY the end of the interview the BFRO dude was going over to the house and giving the old man a thermal camera. It makes me laugh how people think they know everything there is to know about these Tall hairy ape looking beings. All of a sudden everyone is a Pro at everything. Just take this for what it is. If its true then people who ridicule will feel a little salty. If its another Hoax then who cares. Did we forget that we dont need anyone to believe if Sassies are real or not. Everyone has reported seeing something or someone. People will always think we are crazy for believing in things others dont. Now im not saying any human being cant have an opinion but let this all just go down first. I like the story and respect Mr. Coleman for posting this. A true pioneer. Alot of people are just fans of Crypto creatures. We dont want go hunting. i’ll leave that to the pros. I like the stories.

@alcalde: I was simply saying I wanted to hear from the original sources, because there were many confusing side-stories, and it was apparent to me that many people writing about this or critiquing it had not actually listened to the interview completely, which seems a bit strange (except that the host is tough to bear for more than a few seconds at a time and the commercials are abysmal).

After watching the film,it is amazing the effect of modern-day medication on what we perceive.

I am glad this farce was exposed quickly instead of dragging on for weeks….

Chris Noel has removed his updates, giving in to a request from a radio station host. I agree with the editorial comment posted by Cherlyn Gardner Strong, in the Tucson Citizen, regarding this turn of events: "I support the research community at large, yet I also support the media. When status updates reported by the media are mysteriously removed in favor of sensationalism, I do take offense."

Organelle, I’m confused – do you doubt “Mike’s” story, or are you saying that you stand by “Mike” and doubting the people who have investigated and debunked it? I think you mean the latter, but I don’t see how listening to the interview makes the story any more true. An interview is just a story, while here we have people who actually went there and investigated first-hand and didn’t find anything tangible in contrast to the claims in the interview.

Ragnar:

That’s my question. It kind of comes off as Biscardi-esque on the hosts part. Not saying that’s the case, but claiming there’s a photo and never producing it seems untoward, especially since it’s clear there was nothing in the man’s backyard.
