Working nights for a few weeks, I’ve been listening to a few pod casts and watching some stuff on YouTube.
I dipped into the crazy world of Bigfoot. There’s some proper weirdos, some even think they are aliens. The finding Bigfoot show, was just nonsense. Shouting in the woods in the middle of the night isn’t going to bring animals closer, complete opposite.
Now I was a always sceptical about a 7ft tall ape walking around the US, and no one managing to find it. But I came across this guy called Thinker thunker, who’s being using modern day technology to prove they’re real. He’s made some really good points, have a look if you have time.
Also came across Bigfoot odyssey, a guy and his wife travel around the country interviewing people who claim to have seen them. Some were just making it up as they go along, but others didn’t have a YouTube channel or trying to be famous, they truly believed they saw something not documented by science. Well worth a watch.
Me personally, I think they did exist, but died out about 60 years ago. Bit like the Thylacine.
Whilst I do NOT believe in Big Foot (or Nessie) per se - the planet is a big place and it still amazes me that there's places man (or woman!) has barely stepped foot in so it wouldn't surprise me for us to come across new species.

Nessie is just total nonsense.
I’ve been to Loch Ness around 5 times. There’s just nothing in there for a large creature to eat. For such a large body of water, hardly any fish.
Back in the 70s an ex-astronaut discovered one in the forest and got into a fight with it.
I think it was a draw and they even became friends, with the man helping to cover the tracks of his new monster pal to help stop him being found by hunters.
My favourite theory is that there's some sort of portal there and the creature people see is a dinosaur from the past and that's why it can't be found when people look because it has returned.

That’s all very goodnight sweetheart. Does Nessie frequent and old boozer in Inverness?
A very random response but I know Matt Leblanc is a huge believer in Bigfoot. I watched a podcast with Chris Harris from Top Gear and he revealed he has some weird obsession and belief that Bigfoot exists.

It's not something I've ever researched in any detail. I've seen a couple of documentaries on the subject but not much else. Here's a couple of links in case you're interested. Not riveting documentaries but still better than Ancient Aliens!
Loads of fake shows but you go down that YouTube rabbit hole and there are some videos where they definately capture something.... many stories too. Bigfoot, Yeti's absolutely.
Brian Blessed belive and that's good enough for me
Enormous rabbit hole with hours of documentaries including a few really interesting eye witness accounts and footage.
It's not beyond reason that some of the really wild and remote areas of the Appalachian mountains or Rockies etc contain or have contained small populations of essentially extinct mammals. The last wooly mammoth population only died out 4,000 years ago.

I think it would be far more likely up near the border with Canada or somewhere in the Boreal forest which spans Canada and Russia. The vast parts of that giant forest are totally unexplored, especially in Russia.
It's certainly possible, new species including some large mammals are found quite regularly even now.
One of the most interesting aspects is that it's not even a recent invention of European settlers, the native people have the same stories going back a thousand years.
The issue is that nobody has been able to find any genetic evidence and videos are simply too easy to fake nowadays. Lack of evidence doesn't meant that something definitely doesn't exist though.

It's also worth remembering the mountain gorilla wasn't discovered till around 1905.
