I have read many articles by professional zoologists and otherwise diehard cryptid skeptics, and many agree that the costume is exceptionally well made. See: Darren Naish

Maybe this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVegHHmZ028&t=141s

Besides, Bob Gimlin has denied it being a hoax for all this time as well, so it’s two claims against each other. In fact, even most skeptics accepted that Gimlin was truthful and was fooled by Roger Patterson.

If you want to know some more, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBuWLe1MC_A Gimlin appears in the documentary. He is confronted by Heironimus, I think, and some other guy and has agreed to come forward and admit it was a hoax all along. It’s his wife of all people who want to keep this under cover.

Btw, personally, I am a bit bomb shelled at this news.

If you are into bigfoot, or just cryptozoology in general, you know Patterson-Gimlin is a big thing. Bigfoot basically falls and rises with the legitimacy of the Patterson-Gimlin footage. It remains the only bigfoot evidence, that has continued to evade clear debunking, for decades even, fueling the little bit of professional attention that bigfoot receives. If you are aware that “Bigfooters” and the bigfoot hunting community exists, this will likely be the biggest bombshell that has EVER hit the bigfoot community besides the Patterson-Gimlin footage itself.

Daaaaaaaaaaang, I know that poster and she 10000% voted Trump. If she wasn’t Canadian.
