Hikers Take Flight When What They Thought Was a Bear Resembles Bigfoot(Most Convincing Video Ever)

When the black bear you think you're looking at from a safe distance suddenly stands and begins to resemble bigfoot, and that creature stares directly at you, how do you react? The hikers who captured the accompanying footage recently in Utah's Provo Canyon seemed to act appropriately: They bolted through the woods, with the camera still running, to get as far away from the creature as possible. "We ran straight to the car after that, leaving our tent and everything behind. It's probably all still up there," states Beard Card, the YouTube user who posted the video. This is one of the more realistic Bigfoot escapades in some time.

Naturally, skeptics are analyzing the video in the hopes of finding an explanation. Yet even healthy cynics are pretty impressed with what they see. They note that the witnesses don't appear to be acting. If they were, the skeptics say, they'd likely be a lot more vocal, and fall into the overacting trap. (Watch this video for full breakdown.) They also didn't stick around to get a great shot, which also rings of a very natural reaction, but didn't help when it came to capturing a better image.

Nevertheless, the shot of what clearly looks like the animal's big broad arms is extremely compelling, which is why Max Roth of Fox 13 caught up with Beard Card to talk about the incredible encounter.

Card told Roth how they were standing there for a good chunk of time even before recording what they believed to be a bear at the time, while he was trying to get the camera to work. During their exchange, Card hit on their reaction. Here are a few excerpts.

I am not one to fall for stories of aliens, UFO's or cryptozoology's favorite creature, Bigfoot in particular, one of the biggest hoaxes of them all IMO but this video is hard to explain as being just a bear hiding behind the trees and has me definitely thinking twice about what the creature captured on the video is. Scary is what it is. I'm not kidding. Look at the video and see for yourself.

where’s the link to the video?

[lbryce]

I forgot to say, hey, folks! let’s take a break, let’s get away from all these terrible news events, having just about had enough of coverage of Zero and his nauseating lies. I really can’t take another minute of seeing his ugly puss all the time. Let’s see some real non-human monsters.

Maybe the Blair Witch moved away to Utah.

Well, actually, if you check the keywords, I did mention Michelle. But still, you got in before as you hoped.

[lbryce]

Yep. You win.

Because of their cowardice the film clip is too short to really make heads or tails of it. It most likely was a bear from what I can see. This is not to say that I would not have run away too because I would have all the while repeating George Carlin’s seven banned words.
