THIS video was just brought to my attention and I wanted to see what you guys thought about it. For a few seconds it's believable but now I'm having doubts.

-why would the Yowie be peeking around the tree, watching them?
-why would he Yowie stay in plain view as the cameraman got close, running just in time?
-the video seems to short. I'd like to see the whole thing, because it's too much of a coincidence to be taping for a few seconds, then, BAM, there's a Yowie
-the cameraman didn't seem too shocked. I mean, he just saw, in the dark, UP CLOSE, a supposed tall and furry ape-man, and all he can say, in a casual voice, is "what was that? Did you see that?"
-Ape costume with extra fur added, anyone? When the light shines on the head for a split second I think I see the shine of a plastic, manufactured mask...?
-finally, what were they doing in the middle of the woods with a conveniantly ON video camera, and why was the light so small?

Take all of these into account and I'm dead sure this is fake.

I think it's fake, not terribly done though, if I were to make a yowie vid I'd probably do something similar, kind of "weird almost scary movie" style...

another short blury video eh...
why they named Yowie ???? that's not cool! Yngwie will much better

Was seen in Oz, over here they are called Yowies. Katoomba would be nearer Tia Country

Unless he plays guitar, then it could be Yngwie the Yowie.

At what second should I look out for it? I couldn't see a flippin thing ....

From 15 seconds in to 20 seconds in you can see it. At first it will be clung to the right side of a tree.

Thanks for that. I still can't make out that much tho getting most annoyed with myself lol

What was it? Not a yowie, but it could easily be just a large furry animal. That would explain the casual attitude.

Is it real? Well, it's either a more unknown animal, that I could believe. But if it's a supposed yowie, no, it is not.

What were they doing out in the woods? In Australia, many ressidential houses have lots of bushes and trees out in the back. They also could have just owned land. If you listen carefully to the footage, you hear someone say "let's get inside," witch leads me to believe they were just in their back yard.

The plot thickens...

..thats scary...

Yowie is a much better name than Bigfoot. I like it. I'm naming my next kid that.

Sounds like a noise you would make if you sat on something pointy.....or a James Brown lyric.

ba-zing.

Yet another alleged video from the same people at the same time frame

The guy and girl are involved in movie production

Made The hairs on the back of my neck stand up!,, If it is fake it's very good.

[attachmentid=27366]These shots were taken in either the US, or Canada. They look very much like what the folks in Australia caught on tape. I forgot to mention-the creature was photographed on hidden camera. I think it was Canada. Look closely at the hand.

I think it is worth noting the distance and time of day between when these clips were taken and the one videotaped in Australia.

I can't recall where I found these clips; but after seeing the video clip of the Yowie-there is no mistaken that the creature is of the same species but on different continents.

Those pictures looks like someone wearing a costume on his back. The hand looks very human to me.

I didn't see it.....

Obviously a bear. Actually, more like a guy wearing a bear skin. Spring Heeled Jack tryed something like that once; It didn't work all that well.

Man in animal pelts?

They are always best that way.

l didn't see anything .

A lot of the houses here in the Blue Mountains do back straight onto National Park, so it is possible to have a sighting from your back door.

Unfortuently I'd say fake, yowies will stay close to you if they're interested but at the same time well hidden. The whole video sounded a bit like a script. If they lived in the mountains they'd know what animals were around here, a 6ft tall dog? lol

Why does the name B Green ring a bell?

Now, forgive me if I'm wrong...



But this pic looks like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson P.O.'d beacuse he came in 2nd place in a Care Bear look-alike contest.

Ya, it does, but i searched for yowie pictures for comparison, and these are the only two that looked remotely biologically possible.

That should make your "B.S. alarm" go-off, shouldn't it?

I saw Yanni a few days ago...

He put on a pretty good concert!

The resemblance is uncanny. Tell me you diddn't PAY to see/hear that.

definetly looks fake to me both the video and the pictures.Sorry if that was me in video i would be running in the other direction not standing there reciting what sounded like a script

What kind of little shuffle footed jig is that thing doing anyway?

*Starts singing* Well they never miss a chance, they get up and dance..they do the Yowie shuffle.....Oh, yeah sure, like YOU don't know the Yowie Shuffle.

I missed that episode of Dance Fever.

The whole Yowie concept is incredibly silly...

the term Yowie is an aboriginal word, and is a monster from Aboriginal Mythology...

The story of the Yowie in dreamtime stories is incredibly different to what we know of it today. TOTALLY DIFFERENT.

To indigenous Australia, a yowie is a mythological creature said to be a cross between a Lizard and an ant:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yowie_%28cryptid%29

There is nothing roaming the Australian bush....there were no Yowie sightings in Australia until the Bigfoot craze in the United States....

how people even started using the term Yowie in the first place is beyond me.

you've all been had by hype i'm afraid.

Syntax, Aboriginies first warned the white man about yowies. I have never heard of a yowie described as a lizard type creature. There's many reports from the 1800's even of yowies being seen by people.

I've personally experienced a couple of yowie encounters, these creatures are intelligent. Hopefully Indeed is still around on here and can share some info.

Here's a somewhat clearer version of the video, at about 8 seconds in you'll see the thing standing there and it continues from there. I believe this video is a fake but that yowies are real.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-kWzSgm9Do

That would be because the original term was infact Yahoo for what we now call a Yowie. Over the years Yahoo became Yowie



No sighting before the "Bigfoot craze" according to who ? You ?

Im curious of what you call this "craze" and could you please give a time frame

Im still here Tia can't get rid of me that easy

haha is your gonna contradict me....get your facts straight...

Yahoo is a term from Gullivers Travels...a great piece of Western Fiction.

Written a considerably long time AFTER Aboriginal mythology and folklore.

The term yahoo was popular in Britain at the time as a slang word for Urang-Otan's....probably due to the popularity of the book.

The mixup comes when someone took the word yahoo, and changed it to suit a word that already existed in the indigenous vocabluray....probably trying to cross reference a sighting with aboriginal mytholgy. Obviously those people DIDN'T do enough research, otherwise they would know that a YOWIE is a completely different creature.

which you took from the first website from google http://cryptozoo.monstrous.com/the_yowie.htm

Where you not asking how we got to calling them yowies today ?

You left this part out though




If you want to get into the aboriginal names you will find each tribe has differnat names for them

I think its a dog. when it shows it in slomo, you see its leaning against the tree on two legs, thin it gets down on all fours. plus it has a mouth like a dog. at first i thought it was a fake chewbacca costume.

You can see all that in that video? Wow. I can't tell that much from it.

on the youtube link, its lit up more and the second halfs in slomo.

I hope this works I've never done a thumbnail here.
Away in the pink it looks like a flap of fur overlaping more fur. Fake. In the green ? What the heck is that? Junk in the trunk. LOL

Here is a screeny for you guys and girls.

Scrath my dog theory... thats chewbacca!

Aww! It's so cute! It looks like an Ewok. That poor thing needs to be put back up in the tree on Endor where it belongs. Right? Aren't Ewoks from Endor? Where's a Star Wars geek when you need one?

Well, now that we've discovered that Jerry Garcia faked his own death(his reasons are his own) all we have to do if find Elvis and Tupac...they're probably handing-out with 'Ol Footy right now giggling their a**es-off.

As for the video screen shots of a "Ewok" being talked about. Im waiting for just one person to do their homework and find out what the husbane and wife team do for a living that took this footage

Right here. yeah, ewoks are from endor.

I'm gonna guess...."Capture and ensalve Ewok's with Elephantitis"....but I could be wayyyyyyyyyyyy out in left-field on this one.....what's YOUR guess?
