Yeti hunt: was the evidence staged ?

Even our last hope is proving to be a scam.

Thats one way for the locals to bring in the tourists!

hate spackertards who do this. Also agree most of Russia needs 24hr electricity!

Its too bad he doesnt display the same sceptical thinking when hes dealing with his bigfoot research. Perhaps hes a little gun shy after fully endorsing the snow walker video as real.

I wonder when people will stop losing their times with searching for creatures like bigfoot,nessie etc.

I wonder when people will stop losing their times with searching for creatures like bigfoot,nessie etc. They won't. It's not the destination (ie finding proof) that matters - it's the journey (ie the search). And it is a lot of fun. Instead of wondering why they simply don't quit, why don't you see if you can join in with local monster hunters? Experience it from an inside perspective.

It's for the thrill of the search and the F-U-N of it all (see previous post). Have you never acted irrationally simply for the fun of it? But there's also a deeper reason: We humans may be reasonably intelligent and technologically advanced but our physical and psychological make-up is essentially primitive or even primeval. I suggest that cryptid sightings, like that of ghost sightings and other examples of mass delusions, can actually ... [More]

What really is the story here? It is simply the tale of one man's disappointment with some surrounding details of an individual yeti hunting initiative, and nothing more than that. It is quite possible that there are officials in Siberia who have a big interest in making a sensational claim and falsifying some evidence for it (although their motive for doing so is not so likely to have been for tourism - since this Western concept has much less purchase in Russia, particularly that far East of Moscow). None of this goes any way towards invalidating the possibility of unknown hominids in Russia... [More]
