Bigfoot!
March 27, 2007Apparently a couple of brothers from BC have a video making the rounds at YouTube of a “large humanoid creature” which many are purporting to be Bigfoot (see story
HERE and video HERE. Just to warn you the “large humanoid creature” appears for maybe 3 or 4 seconds in a 1:34 long video. It could be a bear, a man in a dark jacket, or schmutz on the lens. As Warhol said everyone gets their 15 minutes of fame.
This got me thinking about my fascination with Bigfoot when I was a kid. It wasn’t to the obsession level that my friend Michael Garry had with sharks but my curiosity was definitely piqued. Imagine the awe and wonder I had when on February 1st, 1976 the “Six Million Dollar Man” aired the episode “The Secret of Bigfoot: Part I” only to be followed a week later with the epic “The Secret of Bigfoot: Part II”. I still have very vivid memories of Andre The Giant cast as Bigfoot battling Steve Austin in the forest. Of course a young hot Stephanie Powers (Hart to Hart) as Shalon in that awesome one piece spacesuit didn’t hurt either. Thankfully some kind soul posted a clip of the battle between Steve and Bigfoot on YouTube. The clip is over 8 minutes long so only indulge if you are a true Steve Austin fan.
