Rick and his Bigfoot
Rick and Hank


This post by Thomas Marcum, Thomas is the founder/leader of the cryptozoology and paranormal research organization known as The Crypto Crew. Over 20 years experience with research and investigation of unexplained activity, working with video and websites. A trained wild land firefighter and a published photographer, and poet.


I know some people may end up not liking this post, but in a weird sort of way I think we should be thanking Rick Dyer. First, lets be totally clear, Rick Dyer is by far one of the best hoaxers of all time, he is a excellent promoter and can tell outrageous stories with a straight face.

Now that Chris Russell has come out and admitted that he was hired by Dyer to make the dead bigfoot known as Hank, there should be no doubt the bigfoot in the travel trailer is not real.
All the while Dyer still continues to bob and weave by telling some truths and making some questionable statements, but has admitted that Hank is a prop.

So why should we be thankful to Dyer? Well there is some obvious reason that any blogger can tell you as to why we can all thank Dyer and that would be for lots of web traffic and a continuous steam of material to write about but that is not what I think is the most important thing we should be thanking Dyer for.

We should be thanking Dyer for exposing these "Bigfoot Experts" as the phonies they are. Just look at some of the people, some of which are still supporting the story, that stood by Dyer, Hank and the many false claims. These "Bigfoot experts", the people who claim to know more about bigfoot than any one on the planet, have written numerous books, produced numerous videos, attended numerous speaking engagements, been on TV shows and have a large loyal following of supporters. They have now proven they know nothing about bigfoot.

These so called "bigfoot experts" have duped most of the people of  the bigfoot community for years now. It is now safe to say that some of these "bigfoot experts" do not even go out in the woods, they sit in their backyards and watch the quarter acre of woods between their house and the next door neighbors. They have never seen a bigfoot, never found a track but yet have conned people into buying their books and supporting them. So thank you, Rick Dyer, through your hoax you have hopefully helped others finally realize the fake and phony "bigfoot experts" that seem to thrive in the bigfoot community.


No matter what we do there will always be fakes and hoaxes from time to time but these people who have hardcore supported the Hank Prop have proven they actually don't know and in some cases may not even believe in bigfoot, they should never be supported again.

So why we of course can blame Rick Dyer, lets not forget he has had many noted people from the bigfoot community helping in this large scale hoax. Lets not forget their statements and their involvement in helping this hoaxing money machine roll on down the road for well over a year.

Now, I know we all make mistakes and we sometimes get fooled but once we learn different we stop and correct ourselves, we don't hide behind fake names and phony accounts. If you're honest and truthful, keeping the story straight should not be a problem.

Also a thanks should go to Chris Russell for coming out and telling the truth. He was not part of the bigfoot community until he was hired to make Hank. He should not be shunned as this is his profession to make stuff.

Here is his interview.


LM: Ok guys. here it is. One thing Chris Russell did want me to say, is that he wanted this to be copied, shared, or whatever, with his exact words. Please don’t edit it at all. Thanks!
I sent him questions via email and he worked on the answers while working in his shop.
CR: This is part of the mold for Hank. He was sculpted in WED clay to look like " and old, poorly made taxidermy prop" per clients request.

1493204_841650535851927_191766372_n
This is what is left of the plaster mold. The rest of it went to the dumpster. Latex is the yellow color seen in the photo in the mold. I will pull out the casting of hanks face tonight and send photos.

HANK was made of polyfoam filled latex with latex paints and red camel hair glued on… intentionally to look like an "old poorly made taxidermy of a bigfoot nearly 8 feet tall and 4 feet wide at shoulders" at clients request to tour the country while filming of a movie for film studio I will not publicly name at this time.

10168190_841650629185251_2036793112_n

I signed non disclosure agreements with Dyer LLC to keep this a secret until the code word PROJECT FOOTPRINT was said. I was only to answer phone calls from a number listed in my phone as project footprint.
The email correspondent during the project also gave that code word. Last night in a live audio / video chat revealing the truth behind "the hoax" Rick Dyer said that he cannot reveal the maker of the prop because they wish to remain anonymous I spoke up and said the code word and Rick spoke the code word and identified myself as the maker of the body known as Hank the bigfoot.
I was the person who told Rick from the beginning that I did not want to be involved in the film, credited for the prop building, leaked to media, or on camera for the film crew filming everything. I specifically requested no film crew at my studio on pick up day and that only two people come, Rick himself and one helper.
He contacted me last year inquiring about having a prop bigfoot body made. I did not know him or his name prior to the phone call. He asked about different styles of props and I discussed options and prices for his body from realistic silicone and punched hair to the flat back prop with glued hair that was chosen.
Within a couple of days of Rick picking up the body I began hearing internet buzz and news reports on Rick and his story.
Rick did send me drawings and images of bigfoot and asked me to recreate certain features in his prop like facial features, fur, feet etc..
Many of the features explained in your question were intended by myself, although some were just happy accidents due to the nature of casting latex and foam.
When Rick inquired about the prop he did ask if I could have it finished in December 2013. I accepted the job knowing I was booked on current projects that would be finished to allow time for Ricks project.
I was paid and put the job on the project board in the shop. Once I started the project it was sculpted, molded , cast, painted and haired within two weeks. Rick did not rush me, I agreed to finish the job by a certain time and I did.
Project footprint is the code word that Rick Dyer and myself used to communicate about the project. There was an agreement because of the top secret nature of the prop that we neither of us would speak to anyone about this unless the code word project footprint was spoken unless this was said I was to keep everything a secret and never admit involvement.
My phone had a phone number listed under project footprint that Rick would call me from and I also received emails with the code word project footprint and information about the project. Rick had initially said that we needed a code word to know if it was okay to talk about this and project footprint was my suggestion.
Rick did have one person with him who came into my studio and did see the prop knowing it was fake. I asked Rick to only bring one person into my studio with him and I was introduced to the person although at this point I do not remember his name but I believe that person to be Lynk according to his description.

Rick and his associate came into the basement of my studio and I lifted the body made of latex and poly foam by myself and took it upstairs where Rick and his associate put it into the box added curtains around the edge of the box and the three of us pushed the box down the driveway into the back of his "Rick Dyer see bigfoot inside " trailer that was parked in front of my studio
LM: Although Rick has confessed to having the body made, he still claims he has at least one Bigfoot body…somewhere. Did he ever tell you, during any of your conversations, that he DID kill a Bigfoot?
CR: Rick has maintained throughout all of our correspondence that he did indeed kill a real Bigfoot yet needed a prop body to take on tour so that the real Bigfoot would not be stolen.

Today I watched the premier of Mirage Men, so I thought I'd write a little review of the film.
First, let me say if you are looking for a documentary that shows a bunch of UFO footage and stuff like that, then look else where because there is very little of it in this film. 

Now if you are interested in the inner workings of how the government sows disinformation to the UFO crowd and then the general public, then you have to watch this film.
It has some wow factors that shows the extremes that are taken to not only gather information but to also plant disinformation.

I did enjoy the film but it really ask and creates more questions on what is a real UFO story and what is a disinformation story.  Richard Doty is the now civilian who is "coming clean" after years of working to cover, gather and plant disinformation for the government, but in the end you just can't trust what he is telling you.

This is a very thought provoking film and should make you question just what the government tells us, not only about UFOs but everything.

Who would you trust?

You can stream the film at this link - http://amzn.to/1Llq2mO

Rating: 3 out of 5 Stars - Worth a Watch!

Mirage Men
How the US government created a myth that took over the world.
ET visitors… crashed UFOs… back-engineered alien technology… the government cover-up of a secret that would change the world as we know it…
These are the core elements of the modern UFO mythology, a story that has captivated farmers, princes and generals for generations, and shows no sign of loosening its grip on the popular imagination.
But what if, instead of covering up the UFO story, elements in the US military had actively encouraged it as part of their Cold War counterintelligence arsenal – manufacturing the myth of the UFO as a powerful weapon of mass deception and the perfect cover for all manner of clandestine technologies and operations.
Now, for the first time, some of those whose actions have directly shaped the UFO mythology, and some of their victims, tell their stories, revealing a surreal disturbing and sometimes tragic sequence of events that is part Manchurian Candidate and part Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Mirage Men draws viewers into a saucer-shaped hall of mirrors, a shadow-world where every lie contains elements of the truth, and the truth is far stranger than the UFO believers, or their detractors, would have you believe.

weird bigfoot dust
Bigfoot Magic (Mock up photo)

This Post By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher. Dorraine is a Professional Writer, a nature, wildlife and Bigfoot enthusiast who has written for many magazines. Dorraine conducts research, special interviews and more for The Crypto Crew. Get Dorraine's book The Book Of Blackthorne! 



The Magical Powers, Fairies, and Pixie Dust of Bigfoot
Are We Missing An Important Point?
By Dorraine Fisher


Skepticism has its place in the bigfoot world. It keeps us sharp. It keeps us airing on the side of logic, and it makes us careful what we believe…and what we fall for. It IS important for us to understand all sides of the question. So skeptics play a huge role in the research.

But in the time I’ve watched this community, I’ve found a different kind of skepticism literally creeping into the cultural zeitgeist, threatening to tear at the body of knowledge we’ve managed to accumulate on the subject in a very short time.

The research is making a lot of progress whether any of us feels it or not. In spite of all the sensationalism of bigfoot TV shows, many more people believe now…or at least want to find good reasons to believe. So it’s our job to give them something they can hang on to. Because we need it too. But while the research is making huge leaps, and more observations are being made, and patterns are starting to develop, and the argument is becoming more heated. And the big question is: Just what are these creatures/ people we call sasquatches? And what are they really capable of doing?

To some, they are regarded as fellow humans. Others want to be able to fit them into a highly developed animal category that is completely separate from any other creature. And still others see them as simply highly intelligent primates.

Some regard them as incredibly skilled survivors, while others claim they have amazing, inexplicable, almost magical skills that rival any other creature on earth. And this is where the argument begins. This comes down to the logicians vs. the eye witnesses that claim they have actually seen them doing some really incredible things. At least incredible to those who have never witnessed them. So what’s the real answer?

What if the answer lies somewhere in the middle, and what if we’re missing the point because we’re stopping the conversation before it even starts?

We say we want the answers to our questions, but are we prepared for those answers? Or, more importantly, are we prepared to hear answers that don’t fit into our own framework of what we think these creatures/people should be? Are we looking for the real answers to our questions, or are we looking for the answers we like? Or the answers that fit into our sense of logic?

I’ve often said I have one big problem with logic and I’ll say it again. Logic, like everything else, is a matter of personal perception. Something only seems logical to us if it fits within a framework we personally know and understand. And every individual has their personal idea of what’s logical. And my problem with it is that it doesn’t allow for anything outside that box. It doesn’t allow for new thinking. It doesn’t allow us to have an open mind to new possibilities.

Science is very similar. Science is made up of a lot of factoids and theories. All subject to change periodically as new information surfaces. But one thing science is not allowed to do is to try to mold reality around what it already believes or what it wants to believe. It has to be open to new ideas. It has to be willing to say, "We were wrong before." And need to be open also.

So, that all being said, what if the answers to our biggest questions about sasquatch are answers that don’t quite fit into our framework of logic? What if the real answers are somewhere beyond that? Are we open-minded enough to accept those answers? Or at least to accept, albeit reluctantly, that there might be some truth in them? A truth that could be explained scientifically and logically with the addition of important details?

Because if we’re not open to some seemingly outrageous answers, and we shut down our minds and therefore shut down the conversation, I think it’s important to understand that we may be too busy being skeptical and we’ll miss some very important information. And inadvertently, we may miss some very important details in our research.

I think the time is finally here to stop calling people crazy for what they believe and start listening a little closer to what’s actually being said. Because I’ve talked to researchers all over the world and they’re telling me a lot of the same kinds of stories. Stories they’re being ridiculed for. Because the stories don’t fit into everyone else’s framework of what they think should be possible. Hundreds of stories, all similar. Could it be that we need to reexamine this?

At what point do we start listening and entertaining the possibility that we might be entering into uncharted territory with sasquatch? At what point do we tell ourselves that maybe we don’t know everything we need to know about the biological world? What if there’s a whole body of knowledge we haven’t even discovered yet? At what point do we start thinking it’s possible that we might be wrong in shutting down to other, possibly more unusual possibilities?

Is it maybe time for us all to shift gears on the subject?

The biggest complaint I hear from skeptics is that there is too much mention of "magical powers, fairies, and pixie dust" that seeps into the discussions about sasquatch. But let’s keep in mind how many things the ancients long ago deemed to be magic that were eventually corroborated and explained by science. And let’s also keep in mind that this science didn’t exist before that. And let’s keep in mind that science is also a work in progress. It’s considered right…that is, until it’s proven wrong.

So what if we just simply broke the fairy stories apart and determined what they all have in common and decide if there’s something in them we can actually use? Something that might actually advance the research? Why would so many people tell the same supposedly "crazy" stories, knowing full well that they’ll be ridiculed and called crazy and their stories wouldn’t be accepted.

But here’s my two cents: I think that the only way we can truly be logical, have an open mind, and do bigfoot research the service it really deserves, is to never, ever, EVER let our personal beliefs start an argument and shut down the conversation. What if we actually listened to the stories that are being told and, rather than shutting down, try instead to fit them into something that might be scientifically and logically possible? What if we lean on the side the positive? We might advance the research further than we ever imagined. Anything’s possible. And with bigfoot, I think we’ve only scratched the surface. ********DF

Best Ghost Video of All Time???
Best Ghost Video of All Time???


This Post By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher. Dorraine is a Professional Writer, a nature, wildlife, and Bigfoot enthusiast who has written for many magazines. Dorraine conducts research, special interviews, and more for The Crypto Crew. Get Dorraine's book The Book Of Blackthorne! 


Best Ghost Video of All Time???

In 2001, a man named Tom Underwood and his family were visiting Triangular Field near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania at the Gettysburg battlefield site when he shot this footage of what is said to be 13 ghosts. The family seems bewildered by the somewhat transparent, moving figures wearing what looks like gray Confederate uniforms. They seem to be walking through the woods, and they look like they're walking uphill, though the area is now known to be flat. This is thought to be a residual haunting due to this scenario repeating itself over and over again. This video has been featured on TV shows like Unsolved Mysteries and is considered to be one of the best ghost videos ever shot. 
Tell us what you think.

Mystery is now solved
Weird worm snake bug

This post by Thomas Marcum, Thomas is the founder/leader of the cryptozoology and paranormal research organization known as The Crypto Crew. Over 20 years experience with research and investigation of unexplained activity, working with video and websites. A trained wild land firefighter and a published photographer, and poet.


This odd worm-snake like creature has been causing a stir among some locals and on the internet the last week. They were found in the city of Campo Gallo in the province of Santiago del Estero.
The strange creature was/is called "gusanos-vibora",  the invertebrate was an unknown creature that seems to combine the features of a worm and a snake.
The first of these weird creatures were found in a vineyard but soon they seemed to be popping up in other areas, the snake like head caused fear among the locals.

The creature is only about 4 inches long and for a few days people were kind of in a panic, well now the mystery has been solved.

Here is a close up of this fearsome looking monster beast

The mystery has been solved and people can stop being in fear and panic thanks to Bachelor in biology Maria Elvira Paz.
Paz said "..new specimens......no one should fear because they are larvae of future butterflies and are in a development stage."

So these monsters will become butterflies!

 "..these larvae will transform into a pupa stage, where they form like a cocoon which they remain to the time necessary to become adult butterflies." added professor Paz.

So it's not an alien or some kind of monster that takes your life, it's only a butterfly.

Thanks

scary ghost hands touch woman
Ghost hands (Re-creation)


This post by Thomas Marcum, Thomas is the founder/leader of the cryptozoology and paranormal research organization known as The Crypto Crew. Over 20 years experience with research and investigation of unexplained activity, working with video and websites. A trained wild land firefighter and a published photographer, and poet.


After posting the ghost dragging a man article, we received a report about ghost type hands touching a woman while she slept.

Here is what Khristey told us.

"Ok, so I had been seeing weird stuff in my apartment. I lived in an old school building in Sciotoville, OH called Linsey, I think that was the name of it.  I was in a basement apartment and I wasn't the only one who seen stuff weird stuff happen there. Some of the strange stuff was like things moving, things going missing and we seen what seemed like kids playing at night beside the building.

Well my sister-in-law tried to expel what we thought might have been a bad spirit, the lights were off and she had a candle lit in front of her. Then, I seen the strangest thing ever, it looked evil but also looked like a part of her, kinda looked like a mirror effect like a demon leaning out of her. It was kinda a reddish color and she stepped out side and came back in and poured salt everywhere, while mumbling. The reason she did this was because I had been feeling like I was being violated. It felt like someone rubbing my whole body and I was not being able to move. I would wake up in the middle of the night with this going on and sometimes it would happen when I had just laid down. I guess that could be called an attack in a way. I kept ending up with scratches and red marks on my body."


Rubbing and leaving red marks and scratches on your body, I would say that is considered an attack.
Thanks goes to Khristey for sharing her experience with everyone. I know there are others out there that have had similar things happen, please feel free to share your story with us. You can use THIS LINK to submit it.

Thanks
~Tom~

Ghost Attacks Man
We came across this strange video recently. It looks to be a shadow person caught on a security camera. The figure knocks a man down and attempts to drag him down a hallway. But we can't find any background information on it. So, though it's interesting to watch, we're thinking it might be computer generated. Though of course we don't know for sure.


We've received reports from individuals that claim they've had something similar happen to them. So check out the video and see what you think. And if you've had anything like this happen to you or if you know someone who has, we'd like to hear from you. ******DF

Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter
Rated: R
Running Time: 105 minutes
DVD Movie Review
by
Thomas Marcum


I've had this movie sitting on my shelve for several months now, I've been somewhat reluctant to watch it. That reluctance changed after all our local services, including TV, went out and stayed out for several hours. 
The movie is based on Seth Grahame-Smith's book of the same title and Tim Burton was one of the producers of the film.

The movie combines the historical figure Abraham Lincoln and the legend of Vampires. The film portrays Lincoln as having a secret life as a vampire hunter driven by revenge. This revenge factor starts when Lincoln, as a young boy, witnesses a man kill his mother. The film also deals with historical events that took place during Lincoln's lifetime, namely slavery and the civil war. It manages to blend all these elements together and tie them to the vampire hunting plot.

While watching the film I was really impressed with the fight scenes and the overall telling of the story. In my opinion the movie was very well written and  thought out. Even though the vampires are central to the film, you still get a lot of Lincoln and his political raise to becoming president. There is also some romantically elements in the film that add value to the story.

As for the vampires, there is plenty of blood and frightening scenes to make the horror buffs happy. Action fans will find the fight scenes with Lincoln wielding his silver coated ax a blast. Chopping off heads and limbs of his vampire opponents. The over head shots of the civil war battles are great as well, with cannon balls blowing up earth and men.

I had a good time watching this movie, it was a pleasant surprise. It was nice to follow Lincoln from a young child all the way up to being President. The movie is probably unlike anything you have seen before, but don't let that keep you from giving it a try.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars - Watch it!

Thanks

Turn invisible?

Quantum Stealth Bigfoot?

Is Bigfoot Cloaking More Possible Than We Think?

By Dorraine Fisher



The military has finally done it. They’ve devised a technology to make humans invisible. So how does this apply to the hairy ones? I’ve heard so many descriptions of bigfoot encounters that describe the creatures as having military stealth and cunning. I’ve even introduced the idea that they may employ sniper-like skills for hiding and eluding humans. Too many claims have been made by researchers that these creatures at least give the appearance of being able to disappear at will. Though many scoff at the idea, maybe we should rethink this. Maybe we should focus on what COULD be possible instead of dwelling on what we think shouldn’t be.

Because there’s more.

A Canadian company, with backing from the U.S. military, has developed quantum stealth invisibility cloaking technology. It is still in its early stages, but promises one very important thing to Bigfooters: the concept that invisibility IS possible and the technology behind it is fairly simple. That is, once you understand it. But it’s simple enough that we can apply it to a bigfoot’s ability to blend in to its surroundings or even possibly disappear.

Last year, Sharon Day, in her blog, Ghost Hunting Theories, suggested that maybe bigfoot hair possesses a translucent quality that catches the light surrounding it and causes the creature to blend into its surroundings somewhat. She used this theory to explain why so many bigfoot photos come out blurry. But can the same property render them invisible or almost invisible?

According to quantum stealth technology, it just might. It’s a fairly cheap, lightweight material that catches light and allows it to bend around the subject and make it or someone wearing it appear invisible. And it’s soon to be available to our military for use in the field.

So, if bigfoot hair does possess some special quality like translucence as Sharon Day suggested, then is it really much of a stretch to imagine that it may actually be possible for these creatures to blend into the landscape or virtually disappear?

When we think of it this way, it doesn’t seem quite as impossible.

In order to do really good bigfoot research, we can’t leave any stone unturned. If we look the other way every time something outrageous is suggested, we might never learn what we need to learn about them. With so many new researchers in the field and so many reports of this kind of ability, we can no longer ignore it. We might have to just, instead of arguing why it’s not possible, decide to try and find the ways it might actually be possible.

Nature continues to astound us every day. Both plants and animals have amazing adaptive abilities and qualities unique to them. And if we keep that in mind, it’s easy to take Bigfoot abilities to the next level. We, as humans, have a tendency to believe that if a new and fantastic concept arises, it must certainly be intricate and complicated. But it’s often so simple we can’t grasp it. And maybe that’s the case here. Maybe we just need to change our perspective. ******DF

Looks like the Chupacabra is back on a killing spree in Mexico were 97 sheep were found dead. The sheep were found in the California Alta province of Mexico. According to the report all the sheep that was found dead on the ranch had three puncture wounds in their chest and all were drained of blood.

Over the last two years, alleged chupacabra attacks have multiplied in Mexico, with over 12,000 animals dead and most were drained of blood.

Looking for Bigfoot
Game Cam Deployed!

Well, with me finally feeling better, been sick over a month, and the weather finally improving, I decided to go back to a bigfoot sighting area, that is still active, and set up a game cam. I first reported this sighting back in Sept. of 2013 and did a witness interview. The post along with the witness interview can be found by Clicking Here. I also did some field work when the sighting happened and it can be found by Clicking Here.

On my trip to set the game cam I was able to find what could be a possible old track. Another interesting thing about this possible track was that right close to it was two piles of scat. I was hoping to check out the scat better but the dog stepped all in the more fresh pile. It was not scat like a bear or dog, it seemed more human like.
Here is the photo of the possible old track, remember it has rained and snowed on it several times.

Back in Sept of 2013 I found several fresh tree breaks and twist in this area and upon my return trip I found a few more odd things.
I found a possible arch, it appeared to be bent and wedged under some brush and a old fallen tree.
Here is a photo of it

Here is another picture, this may be nothing but it seemed odd to me and there was three or four tree breaks right under this standing tree.

I feel this area is still active and appears to be a traveling area for bigfoot. I have also spoken with some people who live right next to this area and they were wondering what is passing by their house late at night about 2-3 times a week. Their dogs and other dogs close by go crazy and I personally am woken up often by this. All this is taking place right in my little area. I should also note that there is a small cave on the opposite facing ridge.

While being back in the woods, I found a trail that was pretty wore down and appear to be getting some traffic. The ground was too hard for tracks but that possible old track was right off this worn path.

I will continue to research the area and try to keep my game cam out through this year.

Thanks
