LMAO... It's sad but i was thinking the EXACT same thing!

Ok but seriously... how far away is this lost city from where the bigfoots were sighted? Anyone have any idea?

Just a big foot step away.

I'm not quite sure of the location but Linggi is quite far north of the bigfoot sighting site.

Full story of the lost city can be read here:

Kota (Fort) Gelanggi

The lost city of johor will never be found as it will rewrite some history and undermine the so called superiority of certain races in the country.

It is also possible that the lost city now is inhabited by giant big foots.

first of all, how can you lose a city? it isnt that easy to. i mean, how many people do you hear saying, " crap! i left my city at the check out counter!," or, "hey, did you bring the city? no? me either.. what do you mean you must've dropped it hiking up here?!" or howsabout ," i tried the subway diet! its awesome! i lost a whole metropolis!"...okay anyways.... how can you lose a city?....

well, the city is very old, the forest is only second to amazon rainforest, and there are only traces of buildings here and there, clay pots and pants, some man made structures left overs, etc (they don't build things with rocks here when wood is easier to get. Woods rots away after a few hundred years)

You need to find clue of some sort of goverment or religion (in maybe the form of talisman, shrine, altar, etc, which of course would have rot away. They could be hindus or buddha or some other yet to be known religion.)

Then you have to date all these artifact and it must surpass the age of other known civilization here..bla..bla...bla....

it is like looking for a pin in a haystack.
