The Bigfoot world is buzzing about explosive new claims that challenge the authenticity of the legendary Patterson-Gimlin film. A documentary now alleges the iconic 1967 footage was staged, but many in the community are pushing back by defending Bob Gimlin and questioning why key voices were left out of the narrative. Jeremy digs into the controversy with Mel Skahan and Doug Meacham to discuss the validity of these claims and a regression performed on Gimlin that recalled key details of the sighting.

I appreciate Jeremy, Mel, and Doug. Thank you! 👣
Its obvious, with the recent deaths of, Dr. Jeffrey Meldrum, and Author/Researcher, Thom Cantrall, there are people who think they can bully, slander, or twist Bob’s words and get away with it, because the “old timers,” are gone and can’t defend him, or themselves. Its suspicious that these hoax allegations came out after their deaths.
However, they didnt take into consideration there is a whole new generation of researchers and experiencers who are willing to go toe-to-toe with these cowards.
Bullying an old man and slandering his name only makes us willing to rumble.
We stand with Bob, Mel, and Doug.
Thank you, Wayne!
I had to get “The Intermembral Index” to show that it can be proven with science without harrassing anybody.

This is Wayne from Washington. The formula I mentioned tonight is known in Anatomy as “The Intermembral Index”. Measure from the shoulder point to the elbow to the wrist. Then divide that by the length from Hip to knee to ankle. Human beings are 0.72, Patty is 0.84 from the ’67 film frames. A Chimpanzee is 1.0. So to equal that with a costume you have to add 4″ to the arms. Now the second you do that, the elbow is no longer the center point of the arm length, because you cant move the elbow 2″. Proof, no costume, not human.
Also I agree with you, They’re spiritual creatures not full flesh an blood.
Thank you, Mel!
Great job guys! I had the pleasure of camping with Barb Shupe and Thom Cantrall ( and others) several times 7 to 10 years ago around Washington State. Bob Gimlin drove up from Yakima a few times to camp with us. One memorable time was at Bumping Lake, in the Wenatchee Forest. The sasquatch would come up on the shores of Bumping in the late summer in the wee hours of the morning. They would leave huge, deep foot prints and butt prints in an area that was obviously a playground for their little ones. I also remember jumping off a log into the wet sand to see how deep I could leave a footprint. I was lucky to leave a 1/2″ depression against the 2″ depression left by the sasquatch toddlers!
Bob is a tracker. There were many animal prints on the shores of the lake and I can tell you he knew each and every bird and mammal. If it was an elk or a deer. If the elk was a cow or bull. Young or old…. Sheesh, he was amazing with the knowledge he had of the wildlife. Along the shoreline of the lake, on that same day, was a very long track of of a younger sasquatch. Bob estimated she was a teenager. Her tracks led a long way up the shore and across a creek that fed into the lake and then into the trees. We watched Bob take off up the shoreline like a hound on a scent; his cowboy hat with it’s feather bobbing in the breeze! The rest of our group were casting prints. A while later Bob came back and apologized he just left us there but wanted to see where she might have come from. However, he didn’t have waterproof boots to go across the creek.
What a day. I’ll never forget it. Great times with Bob Gimlin and Thom Cantrall.
I believe that Bigfoot is quite possible. Most people don’t even go outside very much so they wouldn’t see one of those creatures.
If the Patty was a costume, why in heavens name did the mfr. make more than one? Since Hollywood at the time and even today says they could not have made such a costume. The mfr could have sold his recreated costumes to the film industry and made millions. Why was the film scheduled to be played online and then removed the day before? Bill Munns was part of the film and saw the finished product and said the suit shown in the missing footage was NOT the same as Patty. No one has examined that film more than anyone else, so I tend to believe him.
