To continue the point made by bambookid, the road tracks look to me as if they might have been made by a Malayan tapir.

I actually feel badly for Chow. He appears to have been well intentioned but naively victimized, just as the reading public was in turn duped. And to see Chow soldiering onward now, as if eternally hopeful, regardless, must say something about his stick-to-it-ive-ness. I just hope for all our sakes that past experience has taught him to be a better detective.

But gosh, it does almost seem downright conspiratorial, the way in which virtually every hopeful bit of BF news over the past few years has died a controversial death.

There is no other conclusion, based upon the events that unfolded and were revealed, than to think Vincent Chow was the victim of the photographic hoax.

To consider all the evidence before the photo events as tainted by Chow is short-sighted and not supported by what actually happened. Chow allegedly may be guilty of being too gullible around some findings. But any notion that he was responsible for any manufactured tracks, cooked sightings, or fake pictures is just not part of my understanding of the real history of the Johor Bigfoot.

I haven’t sat down and fleshed out the particulars of the whole story, but it appears that Chow was somewhat duped by the guys that had the pictures - they sort of controlled the flow of information about the pictures. So the impression that I get is that Chow seems more like a victim of the hoax than a hoaxster. I could be wrong, however.

Anything that Chow touches is tainted, in my eyes. I am not an expert by far, but the tracks in the video look more like hippo, than an ape-like creature.

Vincent, you sure laid a blow to research in Malaysia…
