Hikers Catch Bigfoot on Camera in Provo Canyon, Utah

Hikers from Utah allegedly spotted Bigfoot near Little Rock, while camping in Provo Canyon, Utah. This clip was published by user Bear Card on YouTube.

The group spots an unidentified, large creature behind some trees, they start filming it, from a safe distance, and, at one point, what they thought was a brown bear appears to stand and look straight at them.

The video does prove the existence of an animal with dark fur or a human wearing a dark coat in the woods, but we cannot confirm the fact that the hikers saw a Sasquatch, as the clip didn't show enough detail, and the cameramen fled immediately after spotting the “beast,” leaving room for a lot of interpretation.

The uploader was later interviewed by FOX 13′s Max Roth over the phone. “Bear Card” describes how he, his three siblings and his wife were looking for deer when they came across the animal, and confirms that the creature had large arms, stood up and stared at them.

They found themselves 50 to 60 feet (15 – 18 meters) away, and the hiker estimates that “Bigfoot” was 8 to 9 feet (2.4 – 2.8 meters) tall.

fake.
a) what idiot after being able to get this close to BF, wouldn't hold his camera steady? I mean, this is a million dollar shot chance.

b) what idiot would actually start running away when it stands up, giving up on the chance of a perfect shot?

fake, fake, fake.

I believe in Bigfoot but I cannot believe this is anything more than a typical American Black Bear.

He/she is hunched a bit when standing giving the impression of having shoulders and the angle gives the fore-leg apparent length.

The head is flat like a bear and the nose is tan. If you slow the video you can see it's nose going into place. that's not foliage in front of the nose. It's right ear is that of a bear and not of any purported Bigfoot.

Check a still pic on this. There is no separation of legs like a biped would have when standing. Stand up yourself and you'll see what I mean.

The size can be as much as seven feet on a large bear. They grow a bit bigger but not much. Seeing it uphill gives the illusion that it is taller than it actually is anyhow.

The illusion of fingers is a bear's wide paw with claws. Check some images online you'll see what I mean.

The motion made when turning and standing to investigate the hikers is a typical bear motion. Black bears will stand for several minutes when they're curious.

The hikers may not have known it was a bear but that is pretty hard to mistake.

I search for Bigfoot and know bears. www.bigfoottracks.us. I'm not plugging my site because i'm on a break of undetermined length. I put it here to show I do search for Bigfoot and I do know what I am talking about. I've seen many bears in the woods and bears are the most common omnivore around Provo Canyon. Check with the local Forest Service and they will tell you the same.

I would have loved for this to be true but can say this is a bear without question.
