“Sassafrass” Sasquatch Squashed
Posted by: Loren Coleman on September 28th, 2007
I suppose people think this is cute or funny, by now. Sorry, I don’t agree. Indeed, I am tired of all this video trash posted as nonfiction film clips.
It’s one thing to have a cryptofictional movie you want to promote, and it’s another thing to keep floating parts of it out there to confuse the general public, including teenagers, who are watching YouTube.
Anyway, in the latest intellectual assault like this, Bigfoot Bubba has posted a new video as real, labeling it “Bigfoot Sighting at Sassafrass Ridge Authenticated.”
He writes:
“Recently discovered Film Footage ditigally restored and colorized as best as possible. Originally dismissed as a prank, this never-seen- before footage has been authenticated by Dr. Hance Oliver, Professor of Anthropology at nearby Clemson University, who writes that the Bipedal Creature’s erect posture and mid-range gait are completely consistent with the backers of the Gigantopithicus Theory.”
Okay, first thing, “Sassafrass” is incorrectly spelled; it is “Sassafras.”
Secondly, there’s no anthropologist named “Hance Oliver” at Clemson. The anthrofaculty, as they call it, at Clemson are Melissa Vogel, Ph.D., Leslie Williams, Ph.D., Yanhua Zhang, Ph.D., Lisa Rapaport, Ph.D., and John Coggeshall, Ph.D.
Thirdly, just take a look at this footage:

Especially when it’s a BAAAAAAD fictional film. The “bigfoot” in this could be a Jawa or a person in a brown parka or a chocolate Tootsie Pop on roller skates for all you can tell from this fine piece of work.
Mr. Coleman, I can sympathize with your’ disgust. Nobody likes to be deceived. In an endeavor the likes of which you’re engaged in, where it must be awfully hard at times to extract some kernels of truth from a sometimes confusing mess of pottage [you are, after all, dealing with unknowns] in an honest effort to educate and inform, having to deal with garbage like this must be quite unwelcome.
The only thing about this is the camera man finely learned to take the picture with out it jumping all over the place..but then if the BF were real perhaps he would shake a bit! BUT YOU ARE RIGHT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
I do like the words at the end, “You ain’t see nothin’ yet”
Which, well… we really haven’t have we. And I doubt we will.
“Bieutch?” What, as in Alfalfa’s dreaded nemesis from the old Our Gang shorts?
This footage not only meets but EXCEEDS the standardized “3W” category: weak, wack, and worthless.
Good grief. I agree, Loren.
UGH!
Thanks so much for your comments and commentaries. I am honored to trigger any dialogue that addresses the Bigfoot phenomena.
More postings to follow and Happy Halloween TO ALL!
It convinced me! Well, when I say ‘It convinced me’, what I actually mean is that it convinced me as much as any OTHER footage of Bigfoot! I come from the land of the Loch Ness monster….so I know all about how ‘valuable’ a thing like Bigfoot can be.
We have an expression from where I come from in Scotland…. ‘mince’…. this sums up this footage and ALL other footage of Bigfoot, Yeti, Loch Ness monster, UFOs etc etc
p.s. I’ve always wanted one of those ‘phenomenon’ cameras…. you know the type…. whenever you want/need to shoot film or a pic of mythical creature/UFO it immediately goes into ‘shakey-blurry mode’.
