The Baxter Tennessee Bigfoot footage - Magical Realist - May 5, 2025
Astonishing cellphone video catch by Daniel Whitehead in October of 2022 of what looks to be a real Bigfoot. Notable is the typical swaying back and forth that they have been observed doing while standing behind trees. Also notice the arm length as it reaches across to another tree. The footage appears to be authentic and is not a hoax imo due to the witness's reaction and immediate sharing of it with a local paranormal enthusiast. Source: Travel Channel series "Paranormal Caught On Camera"..

That is so bad. One of worst vids I've ever seen and that's not counting the subject matter. Evidence? Yep but only of some horrible video production. I think Bigfoot might have been holding the camera.

LOL "So bad" in what way? As in not capturing a moving Bigfoot figure? Low definition? Lighting? Out of focus? What? What specifically would have made the video acceptable to you? Nothing? That's what I thought..

See how instantly defensive MR gets about his beliefs?
He immediately starts projecting his own inability to disbelieve this stuff, assuming you'd be equally unable to believe it.
Can't possibly be that it's just not compelling evidence.

How is it not compelling evidence? What does it need to be more compelling than it already is? Do you really think a national Travel Channel TV series would air it if it weren't compelling?

There’s compelling evidence of video’s poor quality. Need I say more?
RE: The Baxter Tennessee Bigfoot footage - Magical Realist - May 6, 2025
Methinks thou doth protest too much. After all, a diehard skeptic can never in principle admit a video is compelling even when it obviously is and is blowing up the internet. It would undermine his whole belief system. And we can't have that now can we?

LOL!!!!!!!!
You think the Travel Channel is hard-nosed science or something.
What a moron.
Like all TV channels, they're just trying to fill air time, get views, and sell ads. Compelling never enters into the equation.

And the more compelling and well vetted their shows' content the more air time and the more viewers and the more ad selling. It's the beauty of capitalism is it not? Quality of product = higher demand = higher profits
RE: The Baxter Tennessee Bigfoot footage - Syne - May 7, 2025
You're equivocating or conflating two different meanings of the word "compelling."
Yes, TV channels what to air something compelling, as in "evoking interest, attention, or admiration in a powerfully irresistible way."
That is very different from being compelling, as in "not able to be refuted; inspiring conviction."
Every channel wants to do the former.
None care about the latter.
But you're probably a special enough little mooncalf to believe otherwise. 9_9
