BIGFOOT MUSEUM

Bigfoot is the mythical Humboldt County creature. A great monkey or a man of snow, he resembles the yeti of Tibet. The Indians called him Great Brother, the whites called him Bigfoot after discovering giant footprints in the forests of Humboldt. Some say they have seen it, but the mystery remains intact. Especially since 1967 and the filming of two men, Patterson and Gimlin, with Bigfoot. We see this gigantic creature close to the gorilla moving on two legs just a few metres away from petrified men. Scientists, for the most part, say that this is a popular myth and that the film is nothing but a bad joke. However, some serious studies explain that Bigfoot could be the survivor of a disappeared animal and lived in the primitive forests of redwoods several centuries ago or even millennia.
