Over the years I have heard many people who have “admitted” to to the world that they are the ones who were involved in the “costume” part of this film. None of them however could come up with any reliable evidence to support a scam other than to say ,”well it was so long a go we don’t really remember what happened to the costume or many details.” That I can believe, but it seems as time goes on lots of individuals looking to make a fast buck come out of the woodwork looking for possible publicity.

I was sad to see Rene Dahinden passed away a few years back. How many of us will pass without ever knowing one of the greatest of world mysteries?

Well, Happy 40th Patty. Whatever the hell you were!

And if you were indeed a lady Sasquatch, and are still around, wouldn’t you please step out of the woods so we can take ANOTHER shot at you (photographic I mean)?

PS: Mmm…That’s an interesting question. What would be the average age rate for a primate like the Sasquatch?

I just came across this website and it appears interesting. But, I am in doubt of “Bigfoot” as being a real creature. The man that now talks about this film as his capture of evidence of Bigfoot has been on National Television in a documentary admitting that he and two other men put the film together. I do not have names and location but just remember seeing the documentary on TV about three years ago. I do not remember what satillite channel it was on either. In my mind I wrote it off as real. Even if it does make mon ey for people to keep this going. One of his friends wore the suit and walked away from the scene as it indicates. They person on the documentary even talked with him and showed him walking in normal gait, which was identical to what you see on film. Strange but true to me ,”she was a he” in a Bigfoot suit someone made.

After 40 years there is no other cryptid film footage like it or any other that comes close. It mesmerised me as a teen when I first saw it and continues to do so. A well-deserved Happy 40th Anniversary Patty!

Great credit should also be given to Bob Gimlin, who has endured much over the years due to the controversy. For those who have personally heard him relive the experience, there is little doubt that a very genuine man rode up on a most remarkable and rare animal that fateful day. At a conference a few years ago, I told Bob that I was jealous of what he had witnessed and he replied that he and Roger had just been incredibly “lucky” that day. I suggested that they had made their own luck, since they were there investigating a rash of recent tracks in the area. Happy Birthday Bob! (Oct. 18th)

Even after 40 years the fascination continues. Patty was the first cryptid to capture my attention as a teen and it has never diminished. A well-deserved Happy 40th Anniversary to Patty!

This footage is one of the modern Wonders of the World. Because it provokes wonder!

It hasn’t been proved. It hasn’t been disproved.

Along with the Zapruder film, it will live on after all of us.

Happy Birthday Patty.

DWA: I was even able to convince my wife, although she may have just given in because I talked about it for a month straight! I’m about an hour away from Loren’s museum, I may have to drag her over there one day.

It is truly amazing how much of an impact this film has had, and continues to have on people. When/If a carcass is finally discovered, or a live BF is captured (less likely), it will be interesting to compare either of these to the subject in the film. Especially if it happens to be female. Personally, I am grateful to Mr. Patterson and Mr. Gimlin for capturing this fleeting moment in time, 40 yrs. ago.
