Bigfoot Weighs In at 780 Pounds on Remote Scale

So I just came across something that's been sitting with me for a while now. A video posted by Watchtower Files that tells one of the most unusual Bigfoot encounter stories I've heard in recent memory, and it comes with something most stories don't have: a number. The story comes from a scale systems technician who was working the night shift at a mountain weigh station in the Cascades. Pine Glass Way Station, to be exact. For those unfamiliar, weigh stations are those places trucks pull into to get checked for weight compliance. They have massive scales built into the road surface, and a small building nearby where the technician or officer sits and monitors the readings. Here's what makes this account stand out. The station had been closed for the night due to weather. Chain restrictions were going into effect, traffic was being held at both ends of the mountain segment. By 8:40 PM, the station was completely isolated. No trucks coming in, no trucks going out. The technician was alone in the locked scale house, finishing up some documentation work on a scale that had been drifting slightly during the day. Then at 9:14 PM, something stepped onto the scale. The indicator climbed in 20-pound divisions, moved once more, and held at 780 pounds for about two seconds. The technician looked up and saw it through the window. Wet hair, long arms, broad hands, and a face that didn't belong to any bear. Now, here's where the physics get interesting. The technician knew the difference between an indicated load and a certified body weight. He also knew what he was seeing. The creature stepped off the scale and started walking toward the scale house. And as it did, the numbers on the display fell exactly as they should have if a living being was walking off a scale one foot at a time: 740, 580, 300, then zero. Think about that for a second. The display was following contact exactly as it should. Whatever doubts the technician might have had about what he was seeing, there was real weight leaving that steel surface, one foot at a time. The account goes on to describe the figure in detail. It stood upright on the frontage, less than 40 feet from the building. Its head passed above a clearance marker the technician knew by height.
