Bigfoot Sighting & Hair Sample Analysis: A Forensic Investigation

A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon a fascinating video on YouTube by the channel Tim T in Florida. The video, titled "A Forensic Scientific Hair Exam For Bigfoot World," is a collaboration between the channel's owner and Kathy Westerman from Bigfoot World. The video examines some hair samples that Kathy found near a tree structure, and it's a must-watch for anyone interested in the world of Sasquatch research. In the video, Tim T in Florida explains that he and Kathy worked together on this project, with Kathy adding some footage of her own. Specifically, she added footage of the tire and tree structure where the hairs were found, as well as some tree structure photos. Tim T in Florida also mentions that he will be looking at some game camera straps that Kathy had ripped off a tree, and he will examine them with a microscope to see if he can find any errors. The majority of the video focuses on the hair samples that Kathy found. Tim T in Florida puts on gloves to handle the hairs and explains that he has been doing a lot of research on the scientific study of hair, known as trichology. He notes that hair is unique to each individual and can be used for forensic investigations, just like fingerprints. The microscope investigation of hair is a big part of forensic investigations, and hair type is unique to each individual. Tim T in Florida then goes on to explain the three types of hair analysis for forensic scientists: morphology under the microscope, hair scale pattern, and color. He notes that he has been learning about the differences between animal and human hairs and that he will be looking for the medulla, which is the core of the hair that holds moisture. As he examines the hairs, Tim T in Florida notes that some of them have a broken up medulla, which is usually found in human hairs. However, he also mentions that some of the hairs have a continuous medulla, which is usually found in animal hairs. He then shows some examples of animal hairs, such as deer, cattle, horse, possum, and raccoon, and compares them to human hairs. Towards the end of the video, Tim T in Florida mentions that he has been finding some fibers that look similar to hair, such as those from the Cabbage Palms and Palmetto ferns. He notes that there is a type of mushroom that looks like long black hair, but it is actually a vegetation. Overall, this video is a fascinating look at the world of Sasquatch research and the scientific methods used to examine evidence. Tim T in Florida and Kathy Westerman do an excellent job of explaining the forensic analysis of hair and the differences between animal and human hairs. I highly recommend watching the video and checking out Kathy Westerman's YouTube channel, Bigfoot World, for more Sasquatch-related content.
