Man recounts sighting of Bigfoot in Scotland

This week however not one but two new stories have emerged, both from witnesses who had remained silent for many years before finally deciding to come forward with what they'd seen.

The first, which took place in the 1980s, involved a woman who saw a large black creature with broad shoulders in Carmyllie.

Spurred on by her tale, a second individual, who has asked not to be named, came forward a week later to recall his encounter with something very similar on the Fife side of the Tay Road Bridge.

It was while driving home from work at around 3:20am one morning in August 2005 that he came across a tall figure standing at the side of the road near the A92 Five Roads Roundabout."As I approached the figure stepped out in front of my car and I naturally brought it to a halt to avoid hitting the individual," he said. "This ‘person' was a large hairy ape-like creature which turned to look at the car as I approached."

The creature allegedly crossed the road in three large strides and disappeared in to the woods after which the witness recalled hearing it crashing its way through the undergrowth.

"There was an unpleasant odour in the air and suddenly I got a feeling I was being watched as everything went very quiet," he said. "I then continued home."

"I know unequivocally what I saw and it is still clear in my mind as if it happened yesterday."
