Dear all,
A guy I knew once who saw Bigfoot went around talk shows describing his experience. He sounded very sincere and articulate.
Here is his Bigfoot encounter in his own words in an email to me:
Subj:Finally, Jason's BIGFOOT experience! Date:5/12/2001 10:14:05 PM Pacific Daylight Time
In April of 1996, a former business partner & I were coming back from a meeting in Pensacola, Florida on a week night, heading for home to Largo, FL. We left Pensacola around midnight. We arrived in Tallahassee approximately 4:00 am. I stopped & asked a policeman at a convenient mart to give me directions to a road that would take us from interstate 10 to U.S. 19, so that we could avoid the rush hour traffic that we would have encountered later in the morning if we had continued via the interstate. Approximately 15 minutes into the ride out of Tallahassee, going south bound on a road that bordered the east side of Appalachicola state forest is where this experience took place. I had just reached down to turn off the radio, because the stations were out of range for good reception, when I saw something on the right side of the road. At about 200 yards is when I first saw it & we were traveling at about 55 mph. I immediately took my foot off of the accelerator and "covered" the brake in case it was an animal that might move onto the road. I then clicked my high beams on & this thing lifted its head from a downward position to look our way. It was squatting behind the top of pine tree that had fallen through the forest right up next to the road & looked like it might have been picking through something like a bird's nest. In the next moment, at about 100 yards, She stood up and put here hands in front of her face to block my headlights and starting walking backwards & I knew it was a female "something" because of the long pendulous breasts that were swinging back and forth on her chest. What I could see of her face was just for a moment & it seemed she had a terrified expression. Besides the breasts catching my attention, I was amazed at the palms of her hands, because they seemed to look strikingly similar to a humans. And each finger & thumb was stained with a dark, purplish color, and the same color was on the tip of her nose. Her coat of hair/fur was blond in appearance, at least in the lighting of my headlights.
Her head seemed unusually small for the size of her body & was set low in between her very broad shoulders, almost as if she didn't have a neck. Her face looked so bizarre to me that I can't think of any mammal that looks like it. The best I can describe it, is like a cross between a chimp & a pit bull. I could see very light colored skin in between some of the matted fur/hair on her body & I could clearly see skin around the eyes, forehead & cheekbones. I couldn't see any color to her eyes, but they glowed like a cats eyes when light is shown in them & they were very large in diameter. She did have a classic hour glass figure. Very small waist in relation to chest & hips. Not very much body fat, in fact, she seemed very defined in her muscles. I remember seeing striations of muscle in her forearms, upperarms & shoulders. Her arms weren't really big, just very defined. When she was walking backward, I noticed that her gait seemed to have a woddle to it. As if she were squatting a bit & knock knee, kind of like how Grouch Marx would do that goofy walk, but just backwards. And it really was amazing how big her hips were, about as wide as her shoulders. I'm 6'4", and I know she was at least 7' maybe closer to 8'.
As I was coming to a complete stop, just a few yards past her, we were so close to her, that if Dennis had had the window rolled down, he could have reached out & grabbed her arm. That's how close we were! I passed her at about 20 mph before we stopped. As we passed her, Dennis got a view of her that I didn't get to see since I was driving. He told me that a few seconds after we had passed her, as he was looking back through the window, he witnessed her leaping from a standing position approximately 20 to 30 feet horizontal, 10 to 15 feet vertical and then landing into a full blown sprint through the sand pine forest. The reason Dennis had such a good view of this was because my rear taillights were illuminating the forest from having the brake on. And sand pine forests in Florida don't have much undergrowth over 2 feet high & the branches on the trees don't start until around 20 to 30 feet off the ground. So he said he had a very clear view of this creature. He also told me that he had never seen anything run that fast!
This experience completely shattered my belief system into a million pieces & inspired me to do the research that I have been fortunate enough to accomplish. I tell people that this experience is analogues to winning the lottery. I'm just one of those few lucky people who know the answer to the Bigfoot/Sasquatch mystery. I moved from Florida to Bellingham, Washington in 1999 to be in an area where research was more prevelant. One final note for the skeptics, I know I can't prove anything just from my experience, but I know I experienced something that I believe to be a large hominid being with a witness who we both agree that it was a "not normal" experience.
NAMASTE
Jason Valenti

Hi all, After my interview on Ghostly Talk, I referred them to my friend Jason Valenti for an interview. Jason is a Sasquatch eyewitness and hominid researcher who is an outstanding articulate speaker and has a lot to share. Listen to him and I promise that you will be glad you did. So they scheduled him and just interviewed him on the 23rd. Sorry I forgot to mention it earlier. But it is archived at the link below, which you can download. http://www.ghostlytalk.com/archives/200 ... edman2.mp3I just listened to it and was amazed. It is heavy and mind expanding, and the interviewers said that they got more than they bargained for. It is not just a fancy tale of a Bigfoot sighting, but delves deeper into further implications concerning our origins, who we really are, and who really rules us behind the scenes. It's a must hear. You will be glad you did. So please listen to what Jason has to share. He is an outstanding speaker who has done years of research. His website is at: http://sasquatchresearch.netAfter Jason, they interviewed Stanton Friedman, the famous UFO researcher, author and top authority on Roswell. If you wish to listen to that segment as well, here is the download link. http://www.ghostlytalk.com/archives/200 ... edman3.mp3Thanks, Vinstonas

For every person who reads this valuable book there are hundreds of naïve souls who would prefer to have their spines tingled by a sensational but worthless potboiler by some hack journalist of the paranormal.

Does he believes Shapeshipfting lizards control the world? Yes
Is that tremendously stupid and crazy? Yes
Do i wanna spend 90 minutes hearing a madman talk? no
Do you want to argue about point A or B Scescop? do you believe shapeshifting lizards control the world? or you rather ignore that?
by the way my point wasnt about Icke was about YOU saying ¨he sounds very clear and convincing¨ that is not an argument, that is subjective and doesnt mean anything

This is now a dead thread, but I would like to day that encounters like Valenti's have happened before and will happen again. Many people driving in the areas where the Bigfoot is supposed to roam have either seen one walking in front of their vehicle or appear out of the woods after their car has passed by. Unfortuneatly this is only anecdotal evidence.

He wasn't driving at freeway speeds during all of the alleged encounter, he did have his high beams on, and he was in a rural area. I've driven through national forests at night and you notice things like large animals and there are no distractions like in an urban or suburban area. (That written, I've never seen anything like Valenti's female Bigfoot.) I would agree that is a lot of information to derive from a 2 minute or less sighting, but some people have the ability to pick up visual details quickly. The downfall of this anecdote is that it is only an anecdote; we have no footprint casts, no bits of hair, no scat - no physical evidence.
