In 1958 Gerald Crew hoaxed the United States into believing in Bigfoot when he plastered fake foot prints of the beast.
While the origins come from Native American folklore, this hoax is what thrust Bigfoot into the minds of everyone in the States. Since then, many hoaxed sightings have furthered the belief in this non-exirtstant creature. In fact, I personally know who was allegedly behind the infamous 1967 “Patterson-Gimlin” footage (wish I could report this).
Now, Bigfoot is apparently also walking around in Britain as a mysterious figure was filmed lurking in Lincolnshire Woods. There’s audio and video, as well as footprints.
The article appears over at The Daily Mirror, where they break down the sighting and evidence, while also sharing the below video.
After hearing of previous Bigfoot sightings at the nature reserve, Adam, from Nottingham, ventured into the woodland in search of clues. He followed some strange noises and suspiciously large footprints in the woods before capturing what he believes is the mysterious beast on camera.
Adam, co-founder of the British Bigfoot Research organization, believes the shadowy figure could be the most convincing evidence that it’s living in Britain yet. He said: “My investigators and I were tipped off that this small patch of woodland in Friskney could be a hotspot for Bigfoot beasts. There is at least one reported sighting here, so we decided to check it out.”
“We stayed there for a few hours that day and felt watched and followed the whole time. I took various photographs throughout the investigation and when I checked back through them I spotted the creepy picture. It looks like a shadowy figure stood within the trees staring at us from afar.”
Although he did not spot the creature at the time he took the photograph, Adam, who has been investigating bigfoot sightings in the UK for more than two years, is convinced of the creature’s existence. It was on holiday in Florida, aged 15, when he claims to have first encountered the Sasquatch phenomenon. He spotted a large orangutan-like creature with reddish-brown hair crouching in the bushes and has been obsessed with the legend ever since.
