Here is a 911 call on the latest bigfoot sighting. What do you think this gentleman saw? What did the Bigfoot want? Why would it reveal itself? How could such a creature remain hidden?
Sounds to me like this guy had a little too much to drink.
I don't know if i really believe in the big Foot! i will have to investigate it some more!
Well, Mr. Zombie, I thought that, too, but then I saw a picture of him, and he is missing a few teeth so that might account for his sound. He does have the presence of mind to be concerned about whether if he shoots Bigfoot, it would be considered a felony. He also sounds surprised that after he chased it off, it came back!!! Sometimes some people, and he may be one of them, can't make this shite up. I'm with Waitsforthemoon. He saw something.
I do believe he also seen something.
To me he just reported it, because he was concerned about his animals and his community.
It is quite possible that he did see something. But, I'm not buying that it was bigfoot.
now see this is just the start. if people start caring about bigfoot I can just see them making movies and books all about bigfoot
The already made a movie on bigfoot, Called Harry and the Hendersons It's pretty funny. With as much unexplored on this planet I find it hard to say if bigfoot is real or not. There's always been claims but never really any documented evidence to support the claims. The one time 2 people including a well known cop claimed they caught bigfoot it turned out to be later proved a hoax. Just shows people will say anything to get 15 mins of fame.
Sounds like the man had been nipping at the bottle. Still, I am sure he thought he saw something.......perhaps he came home at 2 with a 10 and at 10 woke up with a 2.....
But seriously ....after years of these sightings and with all of the technology available....it seems still anything produced is scratchy and of poor quality......just like the UFO sightings!
Not to mention those who have supposedly SEEN these beasts that actually HAD a high powered rifle in their hot little hands did not take the opportunity they were given to put an end to the mystery. It is just that simple.
Should it end up being a hoax and just some dummy in a hairy suit chasing around , then he deserves to be shot.
All I can do is laugh my ass off at this guy... He definitely had to be hitting the bottle... My stepdad sounds like this guy when he's drunk... Maybe he saw something, I don't know, but he had to be blitzed...
I don't know what this guy saw could have been a prank lol
We have bigfoot here in Aus. The Aboriginals have legends about them. But hasn't been a sighting in years. However if they are real, where they are usually seen is in the Blue Mountains and its a large natural forest area that has places no man has stepped foot into, as well as an extensive natural cave system. So easy for them to hide from humanity.
I guess its one of those things if I see one or see actual non blurry evidence then I may start believing.
Why doesn't anyone ever catch these sightings on camera?
According to the article, he's going to have his camera ready for the next visit. He also described the Bigfoot as having "beautiful blond hair."
Check out Amazon. A book came out on Bigfoot in the last two years.
Don't you think with the technology we have today a"bigfoot" or any other "creature" man claims to exist,would have been found already.Humans are encroaching on animals habitats everyday and taking over the land,killing off these animals.I doubt very much that a creature exists like people describe as "bigfoot".
I also agree with the whole technology argument... The fact that they have hair, suggests that they are mammals, which in turn tells us that they are warm blooded creatures... Now we have heat sensor technology that we could set up in known sighting areas and go from there... We also have satellites that can also track bodies of heat which would lead us to exact locations of these creatures... We should have been able to determine if big foot is real or not based off of this technology... We track the body of heat and when it stops send a team of people in to take pictures and document the evidence, that easy... That would solve this whole problem...
LMAO
I don't believe he exists
for a number of reasons...
*birra edit* if you would like to post said reasons, do so, otherwise post such as these will be deleted.
DarkWolfman, new species are being discovered all the time. Also, species that were thought to have disappeared are rediscovered, albeit not in plentiful quantities. Couldn't a big, blond Bigfoot be a lonely survivor of an almost decimated species? One that only appears when desperate at isolated outposts? And nwhittington, all that tech would only work if we had info on their migratory patterns. GodofChaos, a little americana for you, N. Carolina not San Diego.
That's why you set up stuff in areas that have had "sightings," you don't just set it up in the prairies where there haven't been any sightings that I know of... Use the info that we've been given by the drunk hill billies and go from there...

Thousands of new species are discovered and/or identified every year. We know so little about the very planet we live on it is absolute arrogance to say this or that doesn't exist.
I'm sure there could be larger primates out there that have survived the ages in limited numbers. Physical evidence has been documented over the years - regardless of not having found/captured/identified one.
As for this guy - my guess is he was drunk off his ass and it is a regular occurrence. His wife came home late from bingo in a smoke filled church basement and he was startled out of a solid black-out...
I wouldn't hang any scientific discoveries on his gun rack.
Bloodmother read the caption...
"Peeler reports that he poked a 10 foot tall blond haired creature".
I think it's clear that he just ran into a member of the LA women's basketball team.
:P
I think its very possible. Just look at everything else in the world that we dont understand.
I do not understand how we cannot believe that Bigfoot actually could exist.
I mean if a man or even a woman for that matter of fact, could be real. When your exposed to the wilderness only your whole life, live in the woods etc. then why would you not emerge as something like * BIGFOOT* all it is is a larger body of hair and large feet, so how can that *NOT be possible.??
We have homeless all over the world that cannot stand the daylight or Light in general due to the fact they have stayed underground* so to speak, and are as moles are most comfortable in the darker spaces of a City or community.
They become accustomed to darkness, so why can't Bigfoot be the same???
I am just one who tries to believe that alot of things are out there and around us yet, we ourselves have not been exposed to.
I mean come'on we have Cannibalistic people whole live amongst us even and may not even know it, just like another type of lifestyle
any way just my 2 cents.
While Mr. Peeler may sound drunk, he also may just have a thick accent, and be real tired after confronting Bigfoot. Who wouldn't? He comes across to me as a concerned citizen who is keeping the authorities informed. He says he's a bear hunter and a hog hunter, and that he knows the mountain. He also says that he doesn't want to kill the creature because they don't do any harm, but he will kill the creature if it messes with his dawgs. Sounds reasonable to me. And Severus, no Laker would be caught hairy and blond on the side of a N. Carolina mountain.
Look I am from a place where accents get so thick you can hardly understand them... That guy was SOOOOOOOOOOO slurring his speech...

I understand there are different dialects, educational levels, etc.. throughout the country, but I don't need a breathalyzer test to tell me when someone is that drunk.
Drunk people often have that stream of consciousness about how forthright they are... ever listen to a DUI interrogation? They're not making good decisions but they can still sort out in their head right from wrong and explain their actions...
As a police officer I have seen plenty of drunks. Call him a hick, woodsman, mountain folk... but whatever you want to call him be sure to put the word drunk in front of it... BECAUSE HE IS!!
That's why I made fun of the fact that he says he poked a blond creature.
But if serious analytical interpretation of this is what you want then don't listen to his speech and over all attitude, all you need to do is to listen to that of the dispatcher's... do you think the dispatcher sound as if this call is from that of a sober person??
lmao. Best Bigfoort story ever. The call went on for over 6 minutes. The dispatcher seemed real patient and respectful. Not important if Peeler's been hitting the moonshine - there was a creature and it was bothering his mountain curs! His words, not mine. His hog dawgs and bear dawgs were setting up a ruckus. He goes to investigate and there's a giant, hairy blond creature that isn't aggressive. It could happen. Maybe it was trying to communicate with him, but he pokes at it, and it runs off. Lost opportunity. Jeez, such cynicism in the face of incontrovertible evidence. I just wanted to use that word. Looks like Peeler had some animal skins hanging outside his back porch. Maybe Bigfoot was after some jerky?
I believe that there is some truth to the bigfoot rumors as there have been alot of sightings and proof of it through the years. I also believe in the lock ness monster.
Well many may make fun of the fact that there could possibly really be a Species out there that is BigFoot, I do not see how one can be a member here on VR and not actually think or believe that there are strange things out there in the woods or actually anywhere in the world that could be such a species, I mean hell even here in the USA I know that not every inch of land has been * discovered* hellI am in the USA and I have seen more places and stuff abroad thenI have here in the US... so well to each there own, yet, I am one who tries to keep an open mind for the possiblities of anything can BE...
I'm not really saying whether it exists or not, I'm just saying that there needs to be more CREDIBLE evidence... And this guys so called "sighting" is just too much, I mean you can tell the guy is blitzed off his ass...
That's the best part of the story, nwhittington. If he was an M.I.T. prof on sabbatical in a trailer turned shack on the side of a mountain, his story wouldn't be half as interesting. A guy like that wouldn't have the presence of mind to call 911, or to even know where the 10-ft stick is kept. He'd probably wouldn't even have a dawg, much less a specialized bear or boar dawg. He'd think it was one of his neighbors, or a possum or something.
Tim Peeler is in talks for his own reality show. Some geeks w/ the equipment you mentioned are on their way there now to set up lures and blinds and hidden cameras. I fear that Bigfoot may have had its feelings hurt with the stick poking, though.
i agree,
I understand that we find new species all the time...
most of these species, however, are plants and sea
creatures and insects because they are often A LOT
harder to separate by appearance and are difficult to spot....
but such a large animal ON LAND????
I find that VERY difficult to believe...
how is it that people have NEVER
had a consistent identification of this crater as well...
Bigfoot has been described in SO MANY FORMS that
I honestly believe it is a trick of the mind...
People are in an area where Bigfoot is known or can
be known to appear and they want to see him.
The mind can play tricks on people who honestly wish
to be a part of amazing occurrences.
I have had many people come into the hospital
where I study, with delusions that loved ones
who passed away are still at home, or they lost a
limb and still believe it is there....
I believe the mind is a VERY powerful thing and
it plays against people...
Yes, I find it VERY hard to believe that a creature so
large in mass will not have been discovered if it roams
forests and stays on land...
So I don't believe he exists.
"i've got 5 dogs..... bear dogs and hog dogs...."
I hope this wasn't serious. because it's pretty embarrassing
No no no Bigfoot is a fantasy! Enough said.
The only possibly rational explanation is a wierd E.T.
I have not bumped into yet and if i did I tell it to f**k off this crowded globe.
But given its supposed to be so primitive I am giving odds of 10,000 to 1 its complete bollocks!
Go hunt some other things like interdimensional Vampiric/Wolfkin forms...Ooops! Winks to the dellusional.
Ok, if Bigfoot actually existed, it would be long since dead by now. This creature would be getting up there in age and i would believe that it's life expectantcy wouldn't be all that long to begin with. This is a myth that has been going around for a long time now. Same with the loch ness monster and thank god that hoax was finally proved to be just that.
I believe the man saw something but i highly doubt that if it WAS bigfoot, he'd be sayin "Git...Git...Git" i don't think that works so well. Maybe it was a wolf...or some kind of predator in the woods but bigfoot? you're gonna have to come at me a little better than that. Put the bottle down, pick up a camera. Call me Missouri cause you better damn well Show-Me if you are gonna be claimin all that lol
To Alienations comment, Why has it not occurred to anyone that the obvious answer is that the Bigfoot is a ET. this explains why nobody's ever found a body and why they can seem to vanish into thin air.
Granted a huge hairy biped is not appealing to alien enthusiasts but it would clear up much of this "where's the evidence?) business. A super intelligent hairy ape like creature with an aversion to being poked with a stick . sounds reasonable to me.
He Probably Saw An animal or something..I Highly Doubt it was Bigfoot xD
Folks I'm not saying that there isn't a Bigfoot out there somewhere.
I'm sayin this dude didn't see one.
Whether it be civilian or police dispatch any 911 operator has thousands of hours of training on how to deal with the public. Her job is to collect information for the emergency at hand so it can be assessed and help sent as quickly as possible. She really asks no question of his status... is he hurt... is he safe... does he need help at this time... NODA.
Like I said if you listen to both sides of the conversation... the dispatcher's first full sentence is her asking Peeler, "what going on now."
For God sakes he even asks her about using a gun to shoot at and kill a yet to be identified person(s) on his property with little to no concern on her part.
This is clearly not the first time they have had this type of conversation with Mr. Peeler.
Hey.. check this out.. Their friendly, and Domesticated.
http://media.photobucket.com/image/chewbacca/zanderonline/Honeymoon%202010/P1020282.jpg
Dabs are hinting you've been running around Alaska winding up the natives?
Alternatively it's an E>T. with a great sense of humour...Ape buzzing for shits and giggles...its feasible.
Either way, good work. ROTFL!
I've never been so drunk that I saw a huge hairy creature. How much moonshine does one need to consume for that?
The fact that he asked if he could kill it shows that he wasn't sure - hairy human or Bigfoot? Plus, he sounded doubtful that something that didn't fight, like a bear would, was morally killable. I respect Mr. Peeler. Whether he'd been hitting the sauce or not, he has principles. Plus, I respect hog dawgs and bear dawgs. Not embarrassing at all. Big men walking teeny doggies are embarrassing, not working dogs. they know their place in life, as does Peeler.
There's something so sweet and sad about Bigfoot. They're shy, never been reported violent, but still seem to be curious - reach out? - to humans. Even if they're not real, they repressent a part of our psyche, I think: solitary, yet curious. Huge, yet elusive. Lost, yet almost found.
I have no idea what the guy saw, I wasn't there. I do know when I was around eleven or twelve I saw something that I believe was Bigfoot in the mountains of southern West Virgina. I have also known a guy in the military who once saw something in the mountains of Kentucky that he believed to be a Bigfoot type creatures.
With that said I can't prove anything, I was a kid and had no camera. I don't normally talk about this. I understand it is a far fetched idea. At the same time I have seen and heard of much that is far more difficult to believe.
why is it that all the sightings seem to come from back-woods people?
bloodtrope one could also ask how much moonshine does one have to consume before your no longer sure if it's ok to shoot to death what looks like a human being.
I am from North carolina. It is legal to shoot someone that is on your property if you feel threatened.
So he could have shot it.
Just wanted to clear that up.
Okay secondly, again, I live in a part of nc where accents are very thick and they speak very slowly. When someone is missing teeth, their speech can sound "somewhat" slurred. My mother in law has no teeth (dentures) and she sounds slurred all the time. I have never seen her drink. Not once. So odds are.. he is missing teeth, he has a very thick southern mountain accent, AND he was clearly drunk. I know a lot of people from the mountains out in the Asheville/chandler area (where he is from). He was intoxicated.
Just wanted to clear that up.
Now, with all this being said... why is it not possible, that some redneck, such as my husband, was sitting in his kitchen reading the paper, havin a few beers, listening to country music hears a noise, goes outside and sees something that he can't explain other than the way he explained it. He saw something. Otherwise he wouldn't have called the cops. Us Tarheels are not big on calling the cops.
Okay, so I believe he saw something! Was it bigfoot? I have no idea. Probably not!!
Someone asked, why is it that these sighting are always from hillbillies in the mountains?... Well, obviously because if there is such a species, that's what kind of area they like to inhabit.
Also.. ever heard of the chupacabra??
I dont think you would find in NYC, but any mountainous area, sure. I know there r fake sightings but there r too many for one or so not to have seen something
Come on, nobody addressing My Big foot is an ET theory.
You put Bigfoot with ET and its a home run guys, I think Im on to something here.
As to their bad smell, well you would stink too if you had been crammed into a small spacecraft with a bunch of other hairy dudes and no shower.
LMAO!!
I think you may be on to something as well. Who said aliens got to be little green men??
Okay, so Bigfoot could be an ET. Here's another possibility: Bigfoot is a Freak.
I mean a freak like in sideshow carnival Freak. Are hairy, giant people no longer born? Where do they go? Maybe they all get a one-way ticket to Appalachia. Except there have been sightings in Oregon, so scratch that theory.
But, what if one of these kids was born to poor, mountain folk and it was laid out on the side of the mountain with no expectation of survival, only it did?
so mountain folk treat their unwanted newborns like the people from 300?
I'm making up a scenario based on what the Romans did, and it wouldn't apply to all mountain folk, many of whom I hear tell are god-fearing, decent people. No, these would be more like the jaded folk who for the sake of argument might be the villains in the movie Deliverance. Maybe they'd be afraid a demon lived in the baby and setting it out was the decent thing to do.
What if Bigfoot was the spawn of humans and ET? Or worse, of ET and the bad guys in Deliverance?
Now you are just getting ridiculous, I mean come on those guys from deliverance are too inbreed to be any good for that sort of thing...really...
That's just the sort of bigoted stereotyping that Bigfoots (Bigfeet?) would have you believe.
bigfoot is human not fully developed new theory of the age. LOL
lol...
well, I could believe Bigfoot was real if he actually was an alien... that would make more sense than the fact that he actually lives here and NO ONE... absolutely NO ONE can get even a photo of him.
I am skeptical about Bigfoot, yet many people have seen something that looks out of the ordinary.
A freak is another possibility. What about John Merrick?? All of a sudden he did not exist??? A big-footed hairy freak IS POSSIBLE!!! lol
true... but people love freaks... he'd be famous by now... like every other human with extra arms and legs and rare deformities.
People don't love freaks. We're curious about them, but it's not like we aspire to be born freakish.
What about a Wild Child? Every few years one is discovered somewhere in the world, raised by wolves, baboons, etc. If a child was born a freak and not killed or placed in a sideshow, but cast out and raised either by animals or a sib, they could create a species.
I once saw a group of six-toed feral cats living in the narrow freeway escarpment behind an office building. People put out food for them. They inbred.
there's still so much unused forest out there, i say yes, it's high;y possible.
No, no, no no no no...
He poked at Bigfoot with a stick and it just walked away? Has anyone seen the Jack Links commercials? No, no, no. That man would be defecating and vomiting that stick, if you know what I mean, nudge nudge, impale impale.
All seriousness aside, the entire "video" is a single picture of a man holding a stick. Where's Bigfoot? What's he poking at?
I demand Bigfoot Jerky before I stand behind this one.
but on the other hand, you shouldn't discount things just because you have never seen them.
being open minded it one thing while believing every hoax out there is another. I just find it VERY difficult to believe that we have yet to find an animal so large in mass. That's almost impossible figuring we can find people ANYWHERE in the world via satellite now.... don't you think? Plus as I stated before... there have been so many different descriptions of the breast that I believe it's a mind tick for some, and a calling for attention to others.
I've only heard that they're big, hairy, bipedal and elusive. Never heard of them being violent. The color of their fur might change. What other descriptions are there?
I don't think bigfoot is real, it's more of a legend to me.
This is an analysis in short video of the original bigfoot footage from 1967 at History.com:
Bigfoot evidence
I'm impressed that Officer Down knows about crudité platters. Also, isn't a yeti, a sasquatch and a big foot the same thing? Also, isn't an electronosphincter a sex toy?
All very good questions, but lets examine the real question here....The pillaging of dumpster food that the homeless count on for their sustenance. I mean think about the displaced homeless that used to count on all the perfectly good thrown away capitalist tidbits to keep them feed all year long. and where are they going to get there daily bread now? You think the city is going to feed them? ...NO... Now that Bigfoot,Yeti, Or Even Skunk ape can simply waltz into town and eat up all of the dumpster food cache items that the homeless used to call their own, I say we should feel violated by this outrageous behavior. and find an answer to this unforeseen crisis before its too late.
I men lets be honest here, if Bigfoot began rooting through and taking all of the hidden marijuana fields hidden throughout the US your average smoker or rasta or suicidal house wife would be up in arms.
Lets not kid ourselves here, Bigfoot today could mean any number of farcical beings tomorrow....
Food for thought....
Okay, I have to say that I support WaitsForTheMoon, he is my brother. Besides that he is very intelligent and doesn't just believe the first thing he hears.
It seems the issue is really way past whether that one incident was authentic or not. In western society people tend not to believe in anything they hear and only half of what they see,LOL But true. Because the western society is the way it is, people are confused about what to believe in. They don't have elders they can go to ask questions, and even if they did they still might not believe the answer.
Let us consider the fact that Native Americans have had bigfoot legends since before books and technology. There are stories that are passed down through generations. Legends come from somewhere. All these people are seeing something. It is too bad some people have to be hit in the head with a brick before they would even believe they were on fire,LOL Being skeptical can be good, but taking anything too far isn't. Most people approach this subject with their mind and not their spirit. Also, what if the man said he saw a cougar, he would be believed because people know cougars exist, but that doesn't mean he was telling the truth.
Why is so hard for some people to believe that there may still be undiscovered species on the planet. After all science just recently found a fish they thought was extinct, alive and well. Nothing is impossible, but if you cut yourself off from possibilities then you will cut yourself off from knowledge.
And the difference between yeti and bigfoot, is location.
The Yeti is said to inhabit the Himalayan region of Nepal and Tibet. While bigfoot is of North America.
People will believe what they want, but I guarantee that no one knows everything, and nothing is impossible.
I am curious how many times a 911 dispatcher got worried when Officer Down was on scene.
Someone says in broadcast, "Officer Down, on scene."
Thank you everyone for your pm's and colorful conjectures on just what an electronosphincter is.
Let's lay this baby to rest. I just googled electronosphincter and there is such a thing, but it's used for what you'd think it would be used for.
How they use it in Bigfoot hunts takes more imagination than I have.
Seems to me there's a far simpler explanation than ETs for why "Bigfoot" creatures are never photographed and no evidence of them is found. Maybe it's 'cuz they don't really exist.
I know, I know... there I go gettin' all "skeptical" on everyone again. ;)
What gets me is how people ho-hum discoveries like the bird eating frog, and wooly rat (found in the remote region somewhere) then hold out for Crypto critters.. it gets to be like a novelty. Or the discover is used to bolster the True Believers resolve. "Well if a Bird Eating frog can be discovered then so can bigfoot..
Extremeaphiles are still fascinating to me personally, and they have found a variety of those, and a cricket type insect that is remarkable in its owqn right.. just that it is not as sensational as Big Foot, or Chubacabra
I would like to think he's real. Or was at one time. Problem is finding proof! lol
While for others, it's karma... yet for "extremo-philes" (I like that term, dabbler), it's always the "proof" (evidence) that is truly the Bitch. ;)
- Upir'
There are many sightings for the so called "Bigfoot", who knows if thats what he saw. Maybe he's real, a race of people that has survived out in hiding somewhere.
Well I have to agree with some we are on VR people who believe in things that most cannot *prove* exist so why can we ot for a moment think that Bigfoot is not out there somewhere, I know we have not covered every single inch of space and ground on this planet to know that things cannot be, after all Bigfoot is just suppose to be a big hairy man/ creature so why not? There are alot of proven whacked out people out there that kill and eat us even so why not a bigfoot exist, yet I am hoping he is vegeatarian :)
Masquarade Mistress, I don't see fringe belief as a prerequisite for being a member of the Dark network, I can understand people simply enjoying a Dark tale, for the atmosphere it generates, yet it takes a good story teller to pull that off, and the whole Crypto Fad movement has gotten lazy. I (in a way) applaud the two Duffs, that played the self proclaimed Bigfoot expert. Because they "went there".
I appreciate a good yarn as much as the next person, but it has to have .. Umfph to it.
To be naive enough to bite the same hook every time is a real sign of over investing in external factors, as if what actually is.. will never arouse the individual, wanting to be astonished, and to perpetually be subject to adopted Mysteries.
There are two factors for deducing Bigfoot is not of this earth. Firstly the lack of Bigfoot shit.
A creature so large would have very smelly obvious dung piles unlike that of a bear.This Shit would prove one way of another due to trace DNA.
Talking of shit there seems to be a direct correlation between imaginary beasts and where shit grows.
In africa they have all manner of beasts and deamons that appear where shit grows yet leave none of their own.
However, I do accept the Lochness monster lives around a potless pond and thus is the exception that proves the rule.
Yeah... and imaginary creatures don't leave much shit lying around either, AlieNation.
I don't know...I think he saw something, but I can't say if it was Bigfoot or not...to be honest, I don't really believe in Bigfoot completely...Yeti, yes...but not Bigfoot that much...but I do believe the man saw something...
Probably just one of the neighbor kids again. You know how kids are these days, with growth hormone in all of the food and such.
Another hoax, in my opinion. Nothing in the video struck me as something I'd buy into.
OMG Just liek the toothfairy -Gigglies

I dont know either way I just dont rule out the posibility if it does exist its smart enought to avoid us
Received an award for subversive thread creation. My acceptance speech:
I am truly honored to receive this award. What's this sticky stuff on it? The competition was stiff. Yep, they're all dead. Ba da bing.
There are many amongst us more deserving than I, those who are not filled with cynicism, who are willing to believe anything, and just want to have a serious discussion about Bigfoot in a vampire forum.
Who amongst you can blame them? Our world is filled with facts and lots of real stuff which is hard to understand, but mythical creatures are not cause you can make up facts about them, and drunk people and head cases see them all the time and call 911. The world is filled with wonder, not the least of which is this sticky award. Is this blood or pizza sauce?
