Romanian Bigfoot
Status: Bigfoot hoax
Flickr user vasiliumihnea has uploaded pictures of a Bigfoot he spotted in Romania. He writes:Photos taken friday, February 8th 2008, in Romania, Vrancea Mountains. A tall strange humanoid crossing the road, that's what I saw.
Normally I'm quite skeptical of Bigfoot sightings. But wow! These photos are convincing. They look nothing like a guy in an ape suit. Though maybe it's Cain.

It's a guy in a suit. Look at the feet -they have claws like a bear, not seen in most bigfoot print casts... the face looks like some ugly guy with a receding hairline and a beard in need of grooming, and the bare chest looks like it was taken right out of a Bowery Boys gorilla scene. Nice try, tho.

As I said before I don't know if someone used a costume for a hoax. I've seen the humanoid and made the pictures. I've seen him moving. That's all.

Looks like a man in a suit. The Mars man was more convincing!

Yeah, that chest is a pretty funky give-away.

Zooming in on the face reveals the very poor photoshop job.

I don't care if it's real or not, but if i'd see that thing in the woods, I'd be scared s..less. If it's real, I certainly wouldn't want to be around, if it's a freak in a costume, that would be even worse, that would make a very deranged person be too close to me!!!! Chewbacca looks ok on the screen, in real life, though, not sure I wanna meet face to face.

if the thing is walking around at large, somebody must have caught it on camera. everybody nowadays has a cell phone, a video cam or something to record a movie. there's gotta be! that might shed more light than the photos.

At least someone had the stones to post a good photo not the blurry crap they usually try to pass off on us.

Where did bigfoot get that awesome haircut? It looks like someone did it with a flowbee.

Looks like Jim Henson to me.

Contrary to the post, it looks JUST like a man in a suit. Notice the anatomy of the legs, for instance, totally unlike any animal on Earth except H. sapiens.

Contrary to your post Carl Fink, I'm sure the Alex is just being sarcastic. We all know the "ape" looks really fake.

I agree with the hoax people. Fake. As an aside, anyone running around the woods in an ape suit has a death wish.

Hoax!
1. It's been a while since I saw Harry and the Henderson's but did Harry have hairy ears? This guy has no visible hair on the ears.
2. Chest---C'mon!
3. Linear band of "fur" at right side of chest appears to have been edited. The edge is too straight for anything natural.
