Footage Shot in Manitoba shows BigFoot, viewers say
By DAWN WALTON

Wednesday, April 20, 2005 Page A3

Hundreds of people have now streamed through a home in northern Manitoba to view a 2-minute 49-second video that has folks believing: Bigfoot lives.

Missy Flett, a self-described cynic, said she was stunned by the image of a massive hair-covered creature walking upright calf-deep in water along a shore of the Nelson River, about 500 kilometres north of Winnipeg.

"I was kind of skeptical when I went over," Ms. Flett, an outreach worker with the Norway House Community Council, explained yesterday after viewing the video. "But after seeing it, I truly believe it's the real sasquatch ."

She asked whether she could take a picture of the images on the flat-screen television with her digital camera, but the family screening the video in this remote community of 6,000 nixed her request.

21. I better start running now
Everyone knows Bigfoot can't resist the lure of stone buildings and affordable housing.

I'm evacuating the city.

12. Hey now! What did Bigfoot ever do to you that you would insult him in
such a manner?

6. I'd love to see the video. Some of the previous videos...
... have been intriguing, though not at all conclusive.

It's a shame that the family, according to the newspaper article, has stated so bluntly that they plan to cash in big-time on this. That damages their credibility for a lot of skeptics -- me included.

20. I had pretty much given up hope
of a bigfoot creature.

Now I have a little bit of anticipation again.

I hope it's true, but lots of those nightime trigger cameras have been used lately and have come up with nothing. I've about given up hope.

7. Oh, for Pete's Sake
Someone find out where Ted Nugent was when this film was shot. Chances are it's him.

9. Quick call the NRA
We need to get every gun possible there in a hurry. Shoot anything that moves. We can not allow this to continue. Americans can not be allowed to be terrorized like this. Terror fear kill kill. It's the American way. If it moves kill it...

13. ..it sounds way too suspicious to me.

I will believe it, when they have physical evidence. Videos are too easy to tamper or fake.

18. Poor Bigfoot - he is like sooooooooooo screwed...
Without a passport, he won't be coming back home.
I warned him not to go...but no, "I just need a vacation"...

25. The true nature of bigfoot...
"I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside."
-Mitch Hedberg (RIP)
