This week: Cryptozoology
As far as the paranormal world goes, few things make people pay attention like Bigfoot. His is a legend that's been floating about for centuries in one form or another, albeit mostly by word of mouth. In the technological age, however, the creature or 'alleged' creature has been caught on film or tape recorders on numerous occasions. One of the more interesting Bigfoot-related recordings comes in the form of a frantic 911 call from a man who apparently just had his dog killed by the creature.
Take a listen already.
A good while back we reported on a bigfoot sighting caught on film. At the time we thought it looked pretty stinking good, but a very thorough followup investigation pretty much proved it was a hoax.
But that's the way most of these things seem to go. A recording is released to the public, and it always causes a fervour. The perpetrator of the film is usually totally unprepared for the uproar his 'sighting' causes, and after a week or two announces his wife doesn't want him talking to the public anymore out of concerns for his family's privacy. Dumb.
Then there are the bigfoot vocal recordings caught on tape. Although they can be fascinating, it's hard to trust something you can't see. In Star Wars Chewbacca's animal sounds were made by pasting together the sounds of bears and tigers or something. Who's to say modern day bigfoot recordings aren't other animals found in the wild. Of course you can always find specialists to swear up and down that no animal on Earth has ever made this sound ever…blah blah blah, but to a sceptic these assurances don't mean anything.
One extremely interesting bigfoot recording doesn't feature the sasquatch's vocals at all. It's actually two recordings about three weeks apart. They were both made when the same man called 911 to report strange happenings – including the killing of his German Shepherd – around his home.
The man does not sound drunk. That in mind, why would he call 911 summoning the police to his home if there really was nothing to report? In the calls he never said the word 'bigfoot', 'sasquatch' or anything of the type. He explained this in an interview with bigfoot specialist Ron Morehead. According to bigfootsounds.com:
"Ron Morehead interviewed this man who claimed to have witnessed his German Shepard being hurled through the air, landing 35-40 feet away – killing the dog. Three weeks later he made another 911 and during that call he witnessed a creature. His concern was that if he said “Bigfoot” the Sheriff would discredit him and not dispatch anyone."
So take a listen (mp3) to the call as found on a hecklerspray purchased 'The Bigfoot Recordings, Volume 2' and tell us what you think. We find it compelling.

Do humans who believe this have brains? Evidently, NOT.
Unless you’ve actually seen one for real, then you’re not qualified to dismiss it out of hand……simple as that. BTW, prove that they DON’T exist.
I dunno, perhaps Jane Goodall is not an educated scientist after all? I will say it this way. I live where these things do. They exist, and it is only a matter of time till they are a known and accepted species to science. As a matter of fact, it is very close. The DNA, and all the evidence collected in recent times show what it is. It is in the bag, speaking scientificlly.
Research it.
Notadoubter – perhaps you should try some.
By your, um, reasoning we live in a world
with unicorns, gryphons, and a host of other entities
that Science, the lazy bastard, has failed to disprove.
Tricky one that. But don’t be disheartened. There is actually a plan:
The number of things that do not exist is infinite.
Disproving them one by one would take a great deal
of time (forever) and add nothing to our
understanding of the world in which we live.
The number of things that do exist is comparatively small.
Proving they exist takes less time and actually adds to the sum
of our knowledge. Neat trick, hunh?
In short, if you have seen something you believe to be a new specie,
the burden is on you to prove it, not on everyone else to disprove it.
Nice try though.
