Terrified Hiker Captures the Moment He Totally Freaked Out After Spotting Yeti-Like Creature

Terrified hiker captures the moment he totally freaked out after spotting Yeti-like creature wandering through the woods – but is all as it seems?

Man cowers behind a tree as the mysterious figure

FOOTAGE of a terrified Ukrainian man cowering behind a tree as a figure he believes to be a Yeti walks past him has resurfaced.

The petrified hiker trains his camera on the ape-like figure as it bounds through the forest.

A terrified man caught footage of what he believed to be a Yeti-like figure in a Crimean forest

But unable to hold his nerve, the whimpering cameraman drops the phone as the ‘beast’ walks off into the distance.

The location of the sighting is believed to be Yalta on the Crimean peninsula that is contested by Russia and Ukraine.

A caption on the YouTube clip read: “I don’t know who or what it was.”

Other eagle-eyed internet users were quick to point out the trekker had mistakenly stumbled upon cameramen filming for an advert featuring a Yeti.

The footage was first uploaded to the video sharing site six years ago.

It has since resurfaced on social media site Reddit as members keenly discuss the world’s most convincing sightings of Bigfoot.

One wrote: “Best part about this video is that the guy sounds genuinely scared

The footage, taken in 2011, has recently re-emerged after a Reddit thread discussed the most credible sightings of Bigfoot.

“Even if it is fake that's really good acting on that dude's part.”

One Bigfoot appreciation page on Facebook speculated the shadowy figure was a prankster who wore the outfit to scare locals.

It claimed a similar outfit to the one seen in the video was later found abandoned nearby.

Last month an eagle-eyed internet user claimed to have spotted a family of Yetis roaming through Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming.

At least six hulking, shadowy figures were filmed walking through the snow on the park's live internet stream

Yeti was probably just looking for his lost ice cooler in the woods.

In the night of what is believed to be February 2, 1959, 9 Russian university students hiking and skiing in the wilderness of the Ural mountains died mysteriously. Theories for their demise range from natural disasters to a government or military cover up and even to an encounter with aliens or the Russian bigfoot known as Yeti.

Known as the Dyatlov Pass Incident and still famous today.

I am fascinated by that historical event.

Acute radiation poisoning? That’s the theory I find most plausible, if there even IS a theory that’s plausible.

If scared, why make such a commotion?

I’m fascinated with the Dyatlov Pass incident too. That, and the mystery of the people missing in national parks and forests as investigated by David Paulides (CanAm Missing 411)

I suspect the Russian governmnent in the Dyatlov Pass incident. Probably some kind of weapons testing and that group of students was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

” that group of students was in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Hiking in Siberia in the middle of the winter is the wrong time for anything.

There is a documentary of that event on You Tube

Hey, it looks just like all the Yetis I've seen..after a couple rounds of "Wild Turkey" 100 proof.

By the way, the turkey deserves a more appropriate name. "Turkey" sounds foreign. I would call them "Self-Basting Freezer Eagles"

Yeti is in Nepal/China—in Russia is called something else-Amasi or something like that—Believed to be linked to a neanderthal man rather than an ape.
