So now we know that the "Bigfoot" that was frozen in a block of ice and turned over to researchers for an "undisclosed sum of money" was nothing more than a gorilla suit.
Last week, two Bigfoot hunters held a news conference announcing they had found the remains of a bigfoot, and had frozen it. They posted it on YouTube and a website. The media ate it up, and apparently they were convincing enough to get someone to actually pay them for the "body."
After it thawed, of course the truth was known: rubber feet, mask, fake hair.
Wow! Are we that desperate for news that we fall for a poorly contrived hoax?
Needless to say, the two hunters who were so anxious to be in front of the cameras last week won't return reporters calls today. One, a police officer who has been out on medical leave, faces disciplinary action and firing for fraud.
What more can I say?
Here is the complete story:
