UM-Bot Posted March 28, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 28, 2017 An unidentified motorist ended up hitting a deer in her car after being distracted by a 'hairy beast'. http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/305839/woman-blames-car-crash-on-bigfoot-sighting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilly Posted March 28, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Personally speaking, I think I'd rather hit a deer than hit a bigfoot. A really angry bigfoot would be far more trouble than any deer IMO. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merc14 Posted March 28, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 28, 2017 She was looking at the Bigfoot in her rearview mirror which means the deer were outrunning her car as they fled the beast down US-95? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paperdyer Posted March 28, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Well considering she only had minor neck injuries, as you can't sue a deer for damages, the deer may have survived. It depends on whether or not the deer was clipped or was hit head on. As the car was drivable the deer may have only gotten a glancing blow. A German Shepard ran into my Dad's car in Philly many years ago. The door was badly dented and the dog got up and ran off with no apparent injuries. The car was a 1960 Impala. Not a light for flimsy car by any means. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilly Posted March 28, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Unfortunately an animal can run away from being hit by a car (look just fine) and still be seriously injured. Impact injuries to internal organs often do not become evident until some time passes. Compression to internal organs often result in internal bleeding and eventual death. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myles Posted March 29, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I can't imagine a bigfoot being able to out run a deer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrover Posted March 29, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Well of course they can. Not existing means they benefit from very little wind resistance. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paperdyer Posted March 29, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 29, 2017 @Lilly - True to the internal damage. I was theorizing based on the relatively low level of injury to the driver. No report of the air bag going off, so hopefully only minor injuries to the deer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can keep going after tapping a deer and the chances of it landing in your passenger seat is rare. Reports said tensed woman so , she was really really tensed? I suppose, after seeing that in a mirror back there running around I'd be like YIKES! and punching the gas down GO ! then again, if I was partial to wine among other things -- I'd have a better story.

Impact injuries to internal organs often do not become evident until some time passes. Compression to internal organs often result in internal bleeding and eventual death. And even if they are severely injured, the adrenaline keeps them running, so it just seems like they're fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
back to earth Posted March 29, 2017 #14 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Yes, I blame my own car crash on bigfoot. And breaking my neighbours borrowed chainsaw ? Bigfoot ! Apparently I got drunk on the weekend and abused some people ..... Bigfoot . ... Bigfoot made me do it . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DieChecker Posted March 30, 2017 #15 Share Posted March 30, 2017 For whatever reason, I totally do not believe her. Bigfoot was running deer down a road and distracted her?? Really? At least she had the good sense to make up such a story in Idaho, rather then say, Connecticut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deer typically dart off and changed directions quite a bit. I don't think i have ever seen one running straight down a road. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The incident occurred in Ohio, not Idaho. Ohio does have a large number of Bigfoots reports though, more than most other states in that part of the country.

Ok, I looked up Latah County and it is in Idaho, so that apparently is where the incident occurred but the article says Ohio. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's probably it. HOWEVER ! I once was listening to the news in the early morning hours and it was about a bunch of girls at some college and I MEAN IT STARTED OUT AS MANY, or MULTIPLE! and I was thinking well I hope they all got to the hospital as it was over some drug or drugged. You wouldn't believe how many times that story changed .... by 8 A.M. in the morning it was down to two girls, in a boys sorority, and it was about a date rape drug. Was talking to others that day or then next and if I recall it had changed again and when I mentioned oh who knows what they report today its always changing to something different like earthquake readiings etc. etc. etc. and they looked at me like I was from Mars naturally, oh wellz at least they heard it.

I believe there is so much competition to get the news out first today that the news directors leap before they know all the facts and end up looking foolish. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
