Picture of Bigfoot walking through a wilderness area.
On 20 October 1967, in Northern California, United States of America, video footage was taken of what appeared to be a hairy, roughly human-size creature walking in the wilderness (frame 352 of the video is shown above). The video, taken by Roger Patterson (1933 - 1972) and Robert ‘Bob’ Gimlin (born 1931), spurred fascination in the possibility of Bigfoot being more than just a myth or legend. Before that time, Bigfoot was mostly a character in stories told around campfires.

“Sometimes I myself am not even sure if I’m real.” -Bigfoot
 
“I think Bigfoot is blurry, that’s the problem. It’s not the photographer’s fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that’s extra scary to me, because there’s a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. Run. He’s fuzzy. Get outta here!” -Mitch Hedberg (Mitchell Lee ‘Mitch’ Hedberg (1968 - 2005))

“I really can’t figure out why they call me Bigfoot . . . to me, my feet are just normal-size. Should I refer to the humans as Smallfoot?” -Bigfoot
 
What Might Bigfoot Be?
- A bear walking upright on its hind legs.
- A Yeti in a Sasquatch costume.
- A feral, or wild, human.
- Chewbacca from Star Wars.
- A mountain man or a woodsman.
- A natural hologram made by sunlight reflecting off falling leaves.
- A varsity football linebacker.
- An interdimensional time-traveling furry extraterrestrial.
- An unreported escaped mountain gorilla from a private zoo.
- Somebody’s eccentric friend or relative in a costume.

Travel back in time to 1958. Pranksters Raymond Lee ‘Ray’ Wallace (1918 - 2002) and his brother Wilbur ‘Shorty’ Wallace (1904 - 1966) strapped on 16-inch-long carved wooden feet and sneakily walked around logging camps and construction sites, making what appeared to be the footprints of a large, heavy, barefoot creature. Later, the footprints were seen by workers, plaster casts were made of the prints, and this was taken by some people to be the first ‘real evidence’ of Bigfoot’s existence.
 
“Dear MFOL!, I often lay awake at night wondering what size of shoes bigfoot would wear if he wore shoes.” -Scott in Oregon, USA
“Dear Scott, our research, based on plaster casts made of his footprints, suggests that Bigfoot would wear size 24 extra wide or larger shoes. The difficulty would be to get Bigfoot to put on the rest of the clown costume and to then entertain crowds.” -MFOL! Somewhere in Cyberspace, The Universe

Yeti: What has teeth and flies through the air?
Sasquatch: A flying saw, you furball!
 
What do we call a big, hairy, human-like creature? Bigfoot was once known by names such as ‘wild man’ and ‘barefoot creature,’ the latter from association with large footprints left in the ground. For a time, the creature was called Big Foot. Andrew Genzoli, writer of the “RFD” column for the “Humboldt Times” newspaper of Eureka, California, printed what has become the common name of the creature in just one word, Bigfoot, on 6 October 1948. Bigfoot is also known as Sasquatch, an Anglicization of the word Sasq’ets, which is from the Halq’emeylem language once widely spoken by First Nations people, or Native Americans, in southwestern British Columbia.

In the Biblical “Book of Daniel,” chapter 4, Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar II (about 634 B.C.E. - about 562 B.C.E.) was a boastful man, and so God humbled him for his sinful ways by afflicting him with madness. He was resultingly ostracized from human society, had to resort to living as a wild beast, and grew hair all over his body.​
Picture of Bumble, the fury yeti character in the movie, “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.”
Perhaps the most famous of the Yetis is Bumble, who makes an appearance around Christmastime each year, as one of the characters in the movie, “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer,” first broadcast on television in 1964.

Yeti, or the Abominable Snowman of the Himalayas, might be said to be Bigfoot’s Asian cousin. Another name for Yeti is Man-Bear, which makes sense considering that some people believe sightings of Yeti are actually bears standing on their hind legs. Bears are known to do this in order to get a bear’s-eye view of their surroundings.
 
“The reason people say I am hard to find is that I just want to be left alone to live my life.” -Yeti
 
Australia is home to the Yowie, a giant ape-like hairy creature with large feet. Yowies are sometimes described as giants of twelve feet in height, and at other times are described as dwarfish compared to humans. Yowie is possibly derived from the word Yahoo.

“The natives of Australia . . . believe in . . . Yahoo . . . This being they describe as resembling a man . . . of nearly the same height . . . with long white hair hanging down from the head over the features . . . the arms as extraordinarily long, furnished at the extremities with great talons, and the feet turned backwards, so that, on flying from man, the imprint of the foot appears as if the being had travelled in the opposite direction. Altogether, they describe it as a hideous monster of an unearthly character and ape-like appearance.” -Robert Holden: quoting an 1842 European description of the Yahoo
 
“There is precious little in civilization to appeal to a yeti.” -Edmund Hillary (Edmund Percival Hillary (1919 - 2008))

Are Bigfoot, Yeti, Yowie, and other primate monsters and humanoid monsters real? Possibly all of these creatures are only persistent hoaxes perpetuated by a tiny number of people for a very tiny benefit to themselves, such as heightening their story-teller status, promoting works of fiction, or selling souvenirs to tourists. However, every person is free to decide for him or herself whether to believe or not believe in them.
