Giant Ape Gigantopithecus: Unveiling the Past's Bipedal Primate

A recent video from the Nature on PBS YouTube channel has been making the rounds among the Bigfoot community, and it's easy to see why. The video, titled "Was Bigfoot Real?", explores the possibility that the elusive creature may have been a real, extinct species of giant ape known as Gigantopithecus. As a longtime Bigfoot enthusiast and researcher, I was immediately intrigued by the video's premise. The idea that Bigfoot may have been a real, extinct species of giant ape is certainly not a new one, but the evidence presented in the video is certainly compelling. The video begins by recounting the story of famous Himalayan explorer and mountaineer Eric Shipton, who in 1951 came across some huge footprints in a high snowfield that looked as if they'd been made by some kind of giant ape. Shipton's Sherpa companions had no doubt about what had made them: a Yeti, or abominable snowman. The video then goes on to discuss the discovery of a molar tooth of some ape-like creature in a shop in Hong Kong that sold Chinese traditional medicines. The tooth, which was found in 1935, was huge and was given the name Gigantopithecus, or Giant Ape. The video then goes on to discuss the discovery of more teeth and eventually a piece of the lower jaw, which confirmed that Gigantopithecus was indeed a real species of giant ape. The video suggests that this giant ape could have stood three meters tall and weighed as much as 1,200 pounds, making it a strong candidate for the identity of Bigfoot. I found this video to be incredibly fascinating. The evidence presented in the video is certainly compelling, and it's certainly possible that Gigantopithecus could have been the creature that made those famous footprints in the Himalayas. I would highly recommend checking out this video for yourself and forming your own opinion. It's a great reminder of the ongoing mystery surrounding Bigfoot and the possibility that there may be more to the story than we currently know. Wrapping up, the video from Nature on PBS titled "Was Bigfoot Real?" is a must-watch for any Bigfoot enthusiast. The evidence presented in the video is certainly compelling, and it's a great reminder of the ongoing mystery surrounding Bigfoot. I would highly recommend checking it out for yourself and forming your own opinion.
