In a recent video posted on the YouTube channel Bigfoot Outlaw, Grizzly Chris interviews Brian Barber to discuss the rise of Bigfoot's popularity on social media. As a Bigfoot enthusiast, I was thrilled to see this insightful conversation that touched on the history of Bigfoot sightings and the impact of the internet on spreading awareness about these elusive creatures.
The video starts with a discussion about weight loss and clarifications on the calories in/calories out concept, but don't worry, we won't delve too much into that here. Instead, let's focus on the fascinating journey of Bigfoot from being a mythical creature to a social media sensation.
Grizzly Chris takes us on a journey through time, starting with the petroglyphs that are believed to be between 500 and 1,000 years old. He then moves on to the first credible account of Bigfoot, which was reported by a European explorer named David Thompson in 1811. The video then covers various encounters and sightings throughout history, including the infamous Patterson-Gimlin film from 1967.
The video also highlights the role of the internet in bringing Bigfoot into the mainstream. From forums and early YouTube content to the current wave of memes and AI photos, it's clear that Bigfoot has come a long way. The video even mentions an interview from a person who was recording linguistics around the United States, which was found in the Library of Congress.
Overall, this video is a must-watch for any Bigfoot enthusiast. It's always exciting to see new content about our favorite elusive creature, and this video does not disappoint. Be sure to check it out on the Bigfoot Outlaw YouTube channel. Happy Squatching!
