In a recent video from the YouTube channel BIGFOOT! / William Jevning, Bigfoot researcher Bill Munns discusses his analysis of the infamous Patterson-Gimlin film, which purportedly shows a Bigfoot, or Sasquatch, in the wild. Munns, a two-time witness and field researcher with over 40 years of experience, delves into the details of his investigation, including the creature's height and the camera used to film it.
Munns explains that he initially used an optical formula to determine the creature's height, but the results were inconsistent. He then explored the possibility of a shorter focal length lens, which gave a calculation of around 72-74 inches tall, but this theory was later abandoned due to conflicting evidence.
The researcher goes on to explain the difference between 16 millimeter and 35 millimeter film, stating that the Patterson-Gimlin film was definitely shot with a 16 millimeter camera. He also clarifies that there was no audio recorded at Bluff Creek that day, as the Kodak k-100 camera used had no capacity for sound.
Munns also addresses a mistake in one of the early documentaries where the frame of the beginning of the film was flipped, causing some to question the authenticity of the footage. He explains that this was simply a mistake made by a film editor and not an epic conspiracy.
Throughout the video, Munns' expertise and experience in handling and training exotic animals is evident as he discusses the primate anatomy and behavior observed in the film. He emphasizes the importance of understanding these aspects in order to accurately analyze the footage.
As a curator of this video, I highly recommend watching it in its entirety for a deeper understanding of Munns' analysis of the Patterson-Gimlin film. Whether you're a seasoned Bigfoot researcher or simply a curious observer, this video provides valuable insights into one of the most famous pieces of evidence in the world of Sasquatch.
