Enhancement of "Florida Bigfoot 2008- Myakka Skunk Ape"(possible)

The original video can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-dkMhHD9K0
Removed camera shaking with VirtualDub (DeShaker - thx for this great plugin!!!), added more contrast and slowed down to 50%.
Either a giant Skunk Ape or one of the best hoaxes ever seen.

Is this all the video why does it end with creature still in front of him ?

[Phobnator]

@cprahl007 I have read that they were low on battery or something. Doesn`t sound very credible, its more likely that they were scared and ran away. At least I would have made that :P

I always liked the vid before but now with it stablized I have to really question it further. :40 -:43 the subject seems to sweep its arms forward, but why are the hand from above the wrist laying over so? It's as if they are extensions to a costume.

Also this time frame when you can view the legs, they appear not to be shapely, strait with no calf or musculature showing. No hint of a thigh/knee seperation.

at :58 - 1:00 there is a horizontal shadow cast as if it were neck line.

@Wheellug thx for your comment. 40-43 is really an interesting part. the hands look somehow weird. But I think they look more like an ape than a costume extension.

At 58-100 the subject has a great similarity to one from patterson.

Most interesting part is 1:15-1:19 I think

I have to tell you,you do a great job at enhancing these videos!

[Phobnator]

@redchun Thank you. Its not easy to remove the shaking, but you can see the result. Only thing you need is VirtualDub with DeShaker Plugin (both free) and a good tutorial. (PM me if more info required)

I have read some information, posted by the uploader (he did not hold the cam). Estimated height 7ft.

Of course there are some open questions, but it could be authentic.

[robolite]

superb! that is a pretty big sized creature with huge proportions. Its has pretty wide shoulders and a hunch that is ape-like.

I was with my friend when this frightening encounter occured, I am the person whose head is visible for a few frames towards the end of the video, and yes we were scared shitless needless to say when the creature approached us and got that close my friend immediately stopped filming and we ran out of those woods so fast in fear of our very lives, the creature was aproximately 7 to 8 ft tall and had a dark brown coloration. The scariest moment in both of our lives to date no question...

Besides the 'creature' standing up without using its arms (strange), the use of shoulder pads underneath the guillie hood, the loss of support from one of the arm extensions, and exaggerated arm length:height ratio - it looks perfect. ??

[bryanbish2000]

@rarmexica I would not have run. And I do not beleive these bipedal creatures in the USA are a threat to humans. Just too many reported encounters without attacks. If they want to harm people they would and you wont have a chance.

[bryanbish2000]

At least he put the word " Possible " in his title.

I believe this is the definative skunk ape film, just like the Gimlin footage is the definative bigfoot film. Remember, this creature doesn't have to look exactly like "Patty". There can be some variations since skunk apes are likely a sub species of sasquatches. Kind of like a mule deer and a whitetail deep are different. They are both deer, but entirely different types of deer.

Notice the left wrist in frame 39, 40 then 43. It is slightly angled in 39, and progresses to 90 degrees in 43 revealing a long wrist. Wardrobe malfunction, or the real deal? I couldn't tell if Patty had the same elongated wrist. Is this real and Patty fake? Or maybe there is more than one species of uncateloged hominids walking North America?

[teamharvick76]

They should have yelled at it. Something, anything. But nothing? Come on.

bigfoot in florida? must be here for the oxycontin

[jkstock04]

One of the best, if not the best modern bigfoot video I have ever seen on youtube...if it is faked it was very well done. I'm surprised it hasn't hit the mainstream, or one of the bigfoot shows on TV.

I have watched lots of faked videos on here...watching this one honestly gives me the creeps. That thing does not walk or act human....like I said if this is fake it was very well done. Watching it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.

[X570XKTMX]

Here is a great question... Why don't you zoom in on the face because im pretty sure we all can see it but...the camera was not zoomed in when the thing looked. im sure you tech guys can do it just saying.
