Bigfoot on MonsterQuest a joke

[S2F]

Can you please let us honestly know if he charged you for the purported Biff hair you got from him? I thought it an interesting point esox raised.

Hopefully he did not, lest he portray himself as some tacky souvenir salesman. No doubt it would shine a dubious light on his (Fahrenbach's) already ill-regarded theories.

Lets hope this does not affect Mak from answering honestly.

Yeah, sorry about that, sometimes I don't know when to keep my big mouth shut.

Hehe, NP, I think he might have been on to that one

Apparently, NHNZ, a tv production company, would like to speak with me about my Debunking Monsterquest Videos on Youtube. Yeah, I've never heard of them either. http://www.nhnz.tv/about.html.

Haven't replied back yet.

Monster Quest is all fine and good, if you are critical enough to understand that it is misleading and entertainment.

Just some info I've been sharing on other message boards

During the opening credits of the show, MonsterQuest boldly states that they intend to utilize science to investigate all the "so called" monsters that are said to exist. Well, this program is deep into its 2nd season and it would be safe to say that Monsterquest is a farce. Seriously, how on Earth can MonsterQuest claim that they are utilizing science when the majority of their investigators appearing on the program probably never even finished high school? My favorite quote from a top notch MonsterQuest researcher is "I BELIEVE WE'RE DEALING WITH A SHAPE SHIFTER". Brilliant.

Recalling"Bigfoot In New York" episode and keep in mind this is supposed to be a scientific investigation, you have a bunch of uneducated rednecks running around the woods at night chasing the sounds of twigs snapping. Then MQ tries to build up the suspense by saying that the team is closing in on whatever is generating the noise. Of course at that point they cut to a commercial leaving you salivating at the mouth. When the program resumes, the noise conveniently ceases and they conclude that the potential BF slipped away.

The Ohio Grassman is another farce. The crack MQ team this time includes a fat guy with a toy helicopter that only has battery life of a few minutes. Incredible, a five minute stationary airborne search via a toy aircraft constitutes a thorough scientific investigation. When they catch an image of something small in a tree with the thermal camera, sound effects kick in to excite the viewers and they immediately cut to a commercial. When the break is over, viewers are disappointed to learn no BF was found. Of course no Bigfoot was found, it was a raccoon up in a tree.

And let's not forget about some of the witnesses. A good chunk of those people should probably be in a clinic somewhere being treated for substance abuse. That guy that claimed he was almost carried off by a giant bird when he was young comes to mind. I'm sure most of you remember him from the birdzilla episode.

When MonsterQuest actually has scientists on the show, it turns out to be the same highly questionable people over and over again. One that stands out for me is that DNA specialist sporting the Mohawk hair-do. When was the last time you saw a distinguished and highly reputable scientist appearing on 20/20 or 60 Minutes looking like a punk rocker? As for folks like Meldrum and Nelson, they want to believe in the BF phenomena so badly that they have abandoned logic and common sense.

<b>SASQUATCH ATTACK AT SNELGROVE LAKE TOTALLY FABRICATED</b>

Case in point, let us revisit the "Sasquatch Attack" episode at Snelgrove Lake in northern Ontario. In the first few minutes of the show, a camp staff member who was the first at the scene was in the process of assessing the damage inside the cabin from an "alleged Sasquatch" rampage. This person then states that he thought that the bathroom was spared from this destruction, but when he opened the door it turns out it was also trashed. So let's try to visualize this scene, Mr. Sasquatch breaks into the cabin in a fit of rage and tears everything apart. Next, our hairy friend enters the washroom and rips the sink from the wall. At the end of this, this massive beast gently grabs the door knob on the washroom door and closes it? So not only does BF have advanced hand dexterity to turn door knobs, he has the ability to shrink himself to fit through that tiny bathroom door opening.

<b>NEAREST POPULATED SETTLEMENT IS NOT 200 MILES, BUT ONLY 8 MILES AWAY</b>

Now let us consider the location of this cabin. The owner claimed that the nearest populated centre is over 200 miles away making the cabin accessible only by floatplane. However, in actuality, the nearest settlement is the small village of Slate Falls that is only 8 miles away.

Now to further diminish this guys’ credibility, there is a dirt road leading from Slate Falls airport to an adjacent part of the lake. From there, it is a short 10 minute boat ride to the cabin without the need to portage. In the winter, it's a five minute snowmobile ride.

<img src="http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff117/Bite_Me_CR/SLATEFALLSROAD.jpg" border='0' alt='linked-image'>

With these two bits of information, the chance that squatch vandalized the cabin diminishes exponentially. Surely even someone with a grade 6 education could logically deduce that it was a bunch of teenagers from the nearby settlement that trashed the cabin. What's more, how could no one see that the cabin owner is deliberately misleading everyone by saying the nearest settlement is over 200 miles away so he could drum up publicity that Squatch trashed his cabin. I guess his deception worked because Sasquatch part deux has already been shot.

Meanwhile, those two gifted scientists are fixated on a journal conveniently left there for them to find in the cabin. There is an anonymous entry detailing a BF print nearby. Now this has to be the icing on the cake. Not only do the two scientists fail to see the significance of the closed bathroom door and the village that is only 8 miles away, they actually believe the journal and make arrangements for someone to camp out at the location of the footprint.

<b>NON-HUMAN PRIMATE DNA WILL COME BACK TO BITE MONSTERQUEST IN THE RUMP</b>

Now let us discuss the alleged DNA results. How is it that Dr. Curt Nelson, a scientist who is so obsessed with the BF phenomenon and who is working on behalf of MonsterQuest is the only one concluding that the sample is from a non-human primate? This is the same guy who camped out by himself because he believed that highly suspicious journal entry about the footprint. That alone should tell us that he has an unhealthy BF fetish.

Now we all know that the final DNA results are to be revealed in the season finale of Sasquatch Attack II and I'm sure every squatch enthusiast can't wait to watch. This means that the final DNA results were completed months ago. So ask yourself this, if that nutjob Dr. Nelson truly had Bigfoot DNA, why isn't this news plastered on every scientific journal worldwide? Surely this constitutes one of the greatest scientific discoveries in the past century.

The answer is, THEY HAVE NOTHING !!!!! MonsterQuest is just building up excitement for the season finale. This is no different from MonsterQuest building the suspense by cutting to a commercial when they caught something on trail-cam. Of course, when they return from the break, it turns out that it was a deer or raccoon that triggered the camera. The only question that remains is what asinine excuse will they use to explain how they got those bogus "non-human primate" DNA results from last year.

<b>THE MIRACLE ON THE FINAL NIGHT OF THE EXPEDITION</b>

Finally, let's scrutinize what happened on the expedition's final night at the cabin. Throughout the entire investigation, the team failed to detect a single piece of evidence to support the existence of Sasquatch. Like a bad horror movie, something throws rocks at the cabin striking the roof. Holy crapola, it's a freaking miracle, Bigfoot finally decided to pay these tards a visit just hours before they were scheduled to depart. The following morning, the rock that BF threw was still on the roof. OMG, two miracles in the span of 8 hrs. So this is what happened, from several hundred feet away Bigfoot picks up a rock and fires it towards the cabin. With great skill, he times the bounces and ricochets flawlessly and gets the rock to land on the roof without it rollong off. Bigfoot should play that coin toss carnival game. I'm sure you've seen it, it's the one where you throw a quarter at a bunch of glass dishes and if it doesn't bounce off, you're a winner.

Now ask yourself this, if BF is so pi$$ed at people staying at the cabin, why wouldn't he resort to something a little more along the line of "MESSING WITH SASQUATCH" beef jerky commercials. I mean he already trashed the cabin once in a fit of rage, why not throw something a little more substantial. What I think is more plausible is the cabin owner arranged this so that another episode is produced, which in turn generates additional publicity for his business. Low and behold, he got his wish with "Sasquatch Attack part duex".

Personally, when I combine the details of the bathroom door being closed and the misleading statements made by the camp owner about the 200 km distance to the nearest settlement, this is enough for me to conclude that the entire episode was a farce to begin with. And if MonsterQuest was truly conducting a scientific investigation, they would have known that this expedition would have been pointless. That being said, I wonder what the camp owner has in store for MQ on the return visit. Perhaps he'll get his hands on some chimpanzee and orangutan excrement, mix in some of his own for good measure and create a 3 ft high pile on the other side of the lake. The DNA guys will have field day with that stuff. MQ DNA experts report the sample came back positive for a chimp-orang-human hybrid.

For the most part everything here is like a Prissy valley girl said it. LOL

Oh a Fat guy & a guy with a Mohawk they must be wrong.

To play that game we could say Einstein was wrong simply because he sometimes couldn't match socks

Or say that Benjamin Franklin & Neils Bohr were wrong simply because they were chubby.

Why not actually debate the actual factual data. Instead of the gossiping teeny bop ad hominem.

The hair found by bigfoot was found to be human like but not really human & the DNA ffound was also found to be hunan like but not really human either.

They also analyzed the most famous bigfoot footage & it showed the muscles & mouth moving.

Which was very unlikely for a human to have had especially at that time when they lacked the materials to pull that kind of sophisticated effect off.

Even the gait of the bigfoot walk was analyzed & was found to be far different than that of a standard human.

The bigfoot had longer arms than an ape & in fact just about everything about it was ape like in features including the leg movements.

You can take it or leave it.

They never said YOU HAVE TO believe. They give reports & they analyze it. Simple as that.

They also have alot of skeptism in it too & they typically didn't say they know this they know that.

But, You sure seem too. Like you KNOW That they didn't graduate high school?

You KNOW that the fat guy must be not be credible because he is Fat & Had a toy helicopter.

Well, The Toy Helicopter was able to scan the region. EVEN IF they didn't find anything IF THERE WAS Something it could have been a POSSIBLITY even if it was a slim possiblity.

At least they are trying unlike you who is pretty much just gossiping.

The demonization of the Witnesses is just plain ridiculous. They investigated the witnesses & that is it.

The way you talk you might as well go on a Hannah Montana Forum & Gossip about how you hate Fat people & People with Mohawks & Gossip gossip gossip without facts like most teen girls do.
