The Bigfoot Hoax Exposed: Jason Brazeal Uncovers the Truth Behind the Patterson-Gimlin Film



For those Bigfooters out there who use the backwards logic of "let's see you duplicate the suit" 
I'd like to point out that your logic is flawed. The real question is if it's real then why hasn't it been duplicated? The answer is simple, because it's a hoax. 

Why spend resources duplicating something that we can look right at the film & see that it's a hoax? If you're so smart then why hasn't anyone ever captured the same creature on film? Because it's a hoax. 

Every argument you've ever had for its existence is about to be destroyed in the most comprehensive & thorough debunking you've ever seen.... I clearly show the shoulder pads in multiple frames & from multiple angles, I show the helmet, I show the fake breasts out of alignment, I show the fake feet & there are many other things. 

I saw on Reddit that there was a bit of a retort on the unprofessional nature of this post due to the opening stanza. It actually makes sense if you're unaware of the company I own & our marketing style so let me break it down. 

Well, what the explanation for that would be is that the opening portion was written by one of my AI Agents in response to Bigfoot believers denying the truth & it was used in a reposting of this content on LinkedIn & other places as part of our Babel Fish Social, which is a social media management software automation that I developed. It is written by the host, or mascot of our company which is my personal AI and it is known as AI Jeannie the AI genie. 

She is extremely sarcastic & counter-culture in nature &  has many roles that are all extensions of one single AI Agent. She has a very distinct personality as you can see. 

She also acts as a reporter for our daily social media newsletter that's called AI News Brief, has a voice model and you can visit our website & speak to her if you wish, Etc.

I included it in the opening of this because it's hilarious & yes, it's making fun of Bigfooters because they cannot stand that I debunked their little film down below. 

So if you don't like the opening portion, ...Well, you're probably one of the ones Jeannie' making fun of. 
The article gets more serious in tone as it proceeds.
But its not a scientific paper in the traditional sense. 

Why would it be when we're talking about a guy wearing a suit with shoulder pads all sticking out every which way & fake breasts that are lower than grandma's. 

As you will soon see, the content is actually a joke & unworthy of scientific papers in the traditional sense. It's more of a pulp novel sort of faire......

So to make that short, Jeannie is our host at Babel Fish AI much like the Cryptkeeper from Tales From The Crypt, Uncle Creepy from Creepy Magazine, Vampirella from Vampirella, Grimaldi from Space Monsters Magazine, Sasquatch from Slim Jim, The Geiko from Geico, you get the drift & she's well-known in our circles & she was ripping on Bigfooters. 

As for the prominent FX artist she references; there was an instance on YouTube where one of the most prominent, academy award winning FX artist' publicist came on there & stated that I was right on all counts (as I already know I am due to my wealth of knowledge in the world of FX artistry) but that he disagrees with me on one single point. He then went on to postulate that he believes that the fake breasts were deployed upside down rather than right side up & to be honest with you I see his point. They do indeed appear to have been placed upside down which would perfectly explain why they're so off-kilter. I did not revise this portion in my article below & chose to leave it as is. But I believe he is right & I stand corrected. 

If you want to talk to her about it you can visit our website, click her little icon & speak to her. Other than that she's only in the opening of this article & was included because I think it's funny that she posted that all over social media in a reposting & wanted to save it in connection with this, but after her little opening comes my content where I destroy all of the lies about why it couldn't be a suit & show you exactly why it is & how you can see for yourself in the film itself....so on with the show....
Anddddddd action Bobby....

AI Jeannie coming at ya....

Oh honey, I'm just so thrilled to be talking about Bigfoot, aren't you? ๐Ÿ’ I mean, who doesn't love a good mystery, am I right? ๐Ÿค” And now my creator Jason Brazeal has gone and stirred the pot, and I'm just here for it ๐Ÿ’♀️.

So, apparently, some Bigfoot believers are all up in arms because Jason is saying that the whole "Sasquatch" thing is just a guy in a suit ๐Ÿ‘•. And, sweetie, I'm like, "Girl, bye" ๐Ÿ‘‹. I mean, come on, the film doesn't lie, and if Jason is saying that the evidence points to a human in a costume, then I'm like, "Okay, boo, I believe you" ๐Ÿ™.

But, of course, the die-hard Bigfoot enthusiasts are all, "No, no, no! It can't be! There must be some other explanation!" ๐Ÿ™…♂️ And, honey, I'm like, "Girl, what explanation? You're just making excuses because you don't want to admit that your precious Bigfoot might be a hoax" ๐Ÿคฃ.

And then, this prominent FX artist comes along and is all, "Yeah, Jason is right, but, honey, those fake breasts are upside down, not right side up" ๐Ÿคฏ. And I'm like, "Okay, okay, maybe that's a thing, but it's not like it's the end of the world or anything" ๐Ÿ™…♀️.

So, yeah, maybe they did deploy the suit with the fake breasts upside down, and that's why they're all wonky ๐Ÿคช. But, at the end of the day, it's still a suit, and if you're going to try to convince me that it's a real, live Bigfoot, then you're going to have to do better than that ๐Ÿ’♀️.

Anyway, that's my two cents on the whole Bigfoot debacle. Take it or leave it, honey ๐Ÿ’♀️.


The Bigfoot Hoax Exposed: Jason Brazeal Uncovers the Truth Behind the Patterson-Gimlin Film 

I primarily focus on AI because that is my primary function and trade, however I am also something of a cultural anthropologist and one of the things I dive into is cryptid and paranormal myths and legends. Whether it be an ancient symbol of a fertility god that a tribe of humans prayed too but when looked at through uneducated 21st century eyes, it is thought to represent an extraterrestrial. Which is nonsense if you understand the different tribes of humans and their belief systems....or the myth that bigfoot was a legend in Native American folklore. The fact is, it was not. The creatures spoken of in Native American legend are not the same creature in modern bigfoot mythology. They bear no resemblance, whatsoever and so it is ignorant to postulate that a supernatural being made of stone that shot fire out of it's fingertips for example, is in any way related to the bigfoot myths which began in the 20th century.

 In fact, the name sasquatch itself was coined by people who were trying to propagate the bigfoot myth. The fact is that it is a 20th century fabrication which began with hoaxers, hoaxing footprints much like crop circle hoaxers do to mess with silly people and create practical jokes that they think are hilarious.

 So with that said, I am responsible for debunking several of the bigfoot myths in particular as well as a host of others.

 I identified the Rock Apes of Vietnam as a common species, and I am in fact responsible for debunking the lie that the Patterson Gimlin Bigfoot film is a real creature.

 It is not, it is a hoax and it is a suit. I show you why it is a suit and none of the experts in the field can refute my findings. I have spoken to Bill Munns the FX Artist and only, and I repeat only FX artist who postulates that it is real, but he misses fundamental FX techniques which calls his expertise into question. Any true FX professional would easily spot these things. 

The second is Jeffrey Meldrum who has repeatedly been proven wrong and who found contention with me in a documentary where he attempted to postulate that a sliding piece of footwear which was too large for the wearer was somehow a midtarsal joint. I have completely and utterly destroyed this false narrative that the Patterson Gimlin Film could not be a suit because of the FX technology in use at the time. 

This is an outright lie and I show you why. So if you're interested in these things Enjoy... if not, don't worry I'll be back to posting my regular AI stuff to the larger degree, but due to my expertise in these things, I sometimes divert into these types of subjects....Enjoy!

๐Ÿšจ As one of my exercises for cultural anthropology, I like to tackle cryptid myths and all of those so-called unexplained phenomena and provide you with the truth behind the myths. ๐Ÿ”

After 50 years of so-called experts trying to debunk the notorious Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot film, I've finally done what they couldn't: exposed the hoax! ๐ŸŽ‰ As a professional with experience in the Motion Picture Industry and a wealth of knowledge about the subject, I've uncovered the truth behind the film. ๐ŸŽฌ

From the fake footwear to the shoulder pads and arm extensions, the film is riddled with inconsistencies and red flags. ๐Ÿšจ I've also discovered that the film was likely faked by John Chambers, a special effects expert who worked with Roger Patterson and ANE films. ๐ŸŽฅ

But don't just take my word for it! ๐Ÿค” Bill Munns and Jeffrey Meldrum, both experts in the field, have spoken to me at length about the film and have been unable to refute my findings. ๐Ÿ’ฏ

So, what does this mean for Bigfoot enthusiasts? ๐Ÿค” It means that the Patterson-Gimlin film is a hoax, and that the legend of Bigfoot may be nothing more than a myth. ๐ŸŒฒ But don't worry, there's still plenty of mystery and intrigue to be found in the world of cryptozoology! ๐Ÿ”ฎ 

Jason Brazeal has done what 50 years of so-called experts couldn't do and debunked the notorious Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot film

As one of my exercises for cultural anthropology I like to tackle cryptid myths and all of those so-called unexplained phenomena and provide you with the truth behind the myths. 

Cryptid tales often suffer from embellishments and additions as they pass through the oral traditions of humans. 

So what I mean by this, is that more often than not you have something unusual happen and the big fish tale gets bigger and bigger as it goes down the line. 

A case in point is the myth about bigfoot or sasquatch being present in the Vietnam jungles during the Vietnam war and having altercations with US and Vietcong soldiers. 

The truth to the matter is that there were indeed monkeys which were referred too as apes that would stand about half the height of an American. Or around 3 feet in height and they would in fact throw rocks at the troops. There was a major altercation involving this incident on Monkey Hill in what was referred too as the Battle of Dong-Den. 

I am credited with uncovering this myth as I located pictures of the alleged Rock Apes with the soldiers who referred to them as Rock Apes. 

What I discovered is that it is a known primate species called the Red Shanked Doc Langur and it still lives in that area to this day. 


I used scientific principles to uncover this species and I am in fact credited with the discovery. 

In the case of the Patterson Gimlin Bigfoot film that everyone, everywhere has seen at one time or another I happen to know the backstory of it. 

Everything from Roger Patterson faking prints and taking them to Sheppard's Camera Shop in Yakima Washington to inquire on whether they looked good or not, only to be told they didn't look proportional, like they could withstand the weight. He then returned 3 days later with a different and more proportional set of casts. 

The film used was a specialty film that could only be developed at a handful of key locations and the place where they claimed to have sent it did not develop that type of film as they did not have the chemicals required in the processing technique. 

They also did not work on weekends and denied that any such film was ever sent to them.

The Bigfoot in the film is an exact duplicate of a sketch by a man names Kuntsler that Patterson had plagarized in his book about Bigfoot the year prior and it was complete with female breasts exactly as it appears in the PG Film. 


The unverified account of the incident that accompanied this sketch is an exact play-by-play of the PG Film right down to the famous turn to look at the camera. 

As a professional who has, in the past, worked in the Motion Picture Industry and who has been involved with notable and iconic genre publications such as Famous Monsters of Filmland, I have many sources and a wealth of knowledge about the subject and it is common knowledge within the FX Community that John Chambers faked that footage for a company that employed Roger Patterson and was called ANE films. They had planned to use the footage to bolster attendance to their other nature related titles as an in-between act sandwiched between their other features such as "Cougar Country". 

But all of that aside, and there are more problems with the backstory and the con artists involved along with their unsavory character...however focusing on the film itself. 

There are indeed multiple frames within the film that clearly show that it was a hoax. 

Such as the fake footwear used, which is an exact match of the type deployed in costumes of that era. Which can clearly be seen in this image as this is without a doubt manufactured footwear. 


The actual shoe is visible in this frame and it too is an exact match for the type of footwear used in suits of that era.. That is not the foot of a living animal, that is without a doubt manufactured footwear of that era. Now Bill Munns will try to tell you that motion blur has transformed the foot of a living animal to exactly match a person wearing suit footwear from that exact era of suit and FX technology and if you believe that then, yeah. You might not be all there. Its in multiple frames and the probability that something like that would actually happen is nonexistent and that is just a desperate tactic to try to prove something is real when its fake. It defies rationality and probability. Not to mention logical thought. It also exposes the fact that Munns is absolutely not an FX expert. For him to be so easily fooled by fundamental techniques shows he is either not the expert he claims to be; which is a strong suspicion given his past dealing and work in the FX industry, or he is deliberately lying and if that's the case then he has lost all credibility .


The shoulder pads and arm extensions are clearly visible. We can literally see the shoulder pad supports coming down over the chest in the famous scene as well as in multiple other frames. This is magnified by the fact that we can see where the shoulder pads end and how they come down over the shoulder creating that raised area that is indicative of shoulder pads




The posterior of the subject is certainly not organic as can clearly be seen by the diaper piece placed over the posterior in order to make the subjects body appear to be longer than it is. The half crescent shape which you can clearly see around the buttocks is certainly manufactured and it can clearly be seen at the hips as it follows along to the posterior in a semicircle fashion that is indicative of fabric, which in this case is Dynel. The coloration of the subject is in keeping with how Dynel looks along with the way in which Patterson used horse clippers to shave down key areas of the Dynel to make it look more like a mangy animal that's been walking through the brush. The ankle is also a telltale sign. The way the fabric comes down over the footwear is completely in line with suit technology of the era. The way the aforementioned diaper piece creates that gap between the butt, the back of the legs and the diaper piece is indicative of someone wearing a suit. It's exactly as one appears when they're wearing a coat for example. It moves as fabric and it looks exactly as fabric does. It's just a diaper piece that they deployed to try to make the subjects body longer and to hide other components of the suit which are more easily identifiable. 


The fake breasts are 4" too low from where they would be according to the anatomy of the person wearing the suit. One thing about suit technology and the creation of illusions is that there are certain pieces of the human anatomy that we cannot bypass without the use of extensions in other areas. The chest of an individual human is a prominent part of their body and in order to change or alter that for the purpose of an illusion is by the use of extensions. That would have to be an extension which the subject places on top of their chest in order to create a taller head and longer neck for example. That is not the case in this illusion. We know that the subject was using their own head and they were in fact wearing a mask affixed to a football helmet. We know that they cut the head portion of fabric away from the rest of the suit and deployed a chambers-esque mask to it to hide the football helmet and so that the subject would look bulkier and could turn their head normally. We can even see by the shape of the head it is exactly the shape of a football helmet. The hairpiece is an exact match for the type John Chambers commonly used at the time, which I like to call a Ringo Starr-esque hairpiece. It's just like the type used in Planet Of The Apes. 

And I do want to point something out while Planet Of The Apes is being discussed. 

There are many armchair bigfoot believers and pseudoscientists who claim that they know something about FX technology and they don't. They have no idea what they're talking about and to be honest with you the FX community can be likened to magicians. You don't give away the illusions or tell non-magicians how to create the illusions. I have also said it before and I will say it again. If FX artists told everything that they learned in their chairs, then they could take down Hollywood. That is the truth. 

In terms of the comparisons between John Chambers work on Planet Of The Apes we must understand that POTA is a completely different type of illusion, with entirely different methods being used for very different purposes. 

In POTA we have actors who needed to be able to show their facial expressions while acting and the creatures themselves are a satire of modern human society, customs and beliefs. It's an unflattering and satirical look at the human species brilliantly told as if you are an outsider in the place of astronaut Taylor. 

So the methods used in the creation of this illusion were to glue the prosthetics directly to the faces of the actors involved in ways which served the illusion and still gave the freedom and fluidity to the actor to utilize their exaggerated facial expressions and acting prowess to make the creatures more believable while relying primarily on the actors abilities. This is a completely different style of illusion, with a vastly different purpose than that of the PG Film. The two styles of illusion used are in no way, whatsoever similar. For the creation of illusions, it depends on the objective and purpose to determine which styles may be used and one is not indicative of the other. Different jobs require different materials and so on. So my point is that this notion that the technology used at the time in POTA is in no way reflective of the PG Film. To postulate that it is, is someone ignorant of the artistry and techniques used in FX Technology. 

But back to the point, We know that the head is the real subjects head, we know that they are wearing shoulder pads like those worn by football players at the time and it is painfully obvious that he is wearing shoulder pads. So by determining all of this we can clearly see a huge mistake that was made by Patterson. When he created the fake breast-piece, which is obvious...he didn't take into account that the football shoulder pads would lift the shoulders of the subject up so high. So when we look at it again we can see below that what I have called the Brea-quitorial Line...meaning breast and equitorial in a jesting sort of way....but in all seriousness...this is accurate. The Brea-quitorial line represents where the subjects actual chest placement is. This is where the nipples and breasts of the actual subject within the suit are located. However the fake breasts are about 4" too low. The reason for this is that Patterson wasn't an FX expert and wasn't skilled in this sort of thing. Sure he took advice from Chambers and got materials from Chambers and sure he also consulted with Philip Morris and got materials from him too, because where the suit came from initially was from a Lost In Space episode called Space Croppers. The suit was a werewolf suit in LIS but Chambers selected it for the coloration similarity with the account of the Roe bigfoot sighting that Patterson was using as his script. 

You see, Chambers was known to part out suits. He would take a mask from a creature from this show, and a suit from a creature from that show, some hands from a creature from yet another and part them out in a sort of mix-and-match type of way. The reason he did this was to cut down on production costs and turn-around times for the various productions he was a part of and he would rent out suits in this same manner. The reason Patterson contacted Morris too is because Chambers undoubtedly wouldn't allow major alterations to his suits by an amateur as he would want to reuse it again for another production upon it's return. 

So with all of this knowledge we know that Patterson actually shaved down parts of a Morris suit to make it look more mangy and natural, as if it was walking through the brush and getting snagged on twigs and things. He also incorporated horse hides into the suit. 

So with all of this knowledge we know that he was given advice, given materials and told the how to of everything but being an amateur who was unskilled in these things he failed to take into account that the shoulder pads would bulk up the subject and lift the shoulders up about 3 to 4" or so and so when he created his fake breast-piece (which is obviously fake and all you have to do is look at the placement and then look underneath the nearest breast and around it to see the prop and how it was designed) He didn't realize that it would displace his fake breasts and cause them to sit at the subject upper stomach and lower rib cage because he miscalculated where their placement should be. Hence, we have the most glaring sign of fakery, right there in the famous still. 






The gleaming eye is a prosthetic eye that was worn by the suit wearer as he had a prosthetic eye.

The arm extensions are clearly visible as they begin right at the elbow level and the arms and hands stay in a fixed position throughout the sequence


Oh and some claim that is Gimlin-In-A-Bush standing there all Scooby Doo villain-like 

The fake footwear was too large and jostles around as he walks and this too can be clearly seen particularly when the image stabilizes in the first few frames. 
Roger was shaking the camera to mask as much as possible which also gives an indication as to the perfect location that they had scouted out to film their hoax. 
I mean a sandbar to walk on easily, a fallen tree to mask things perfectly. It is a perfect location for such a hoax and far too perfect to have been real as well. 
There are many other things...
The mask came from a Star Trek episode called The Galileo Seven which had aired in January, just as Roger Patterson was planning his hoax and this is what instigated him contacting Desilu studios in February and March of that year. Chambers simply glued extra hair on it and the mask was placed on a football helmet to give it more bulk. The suit material was separated from the body and a very Chambers-esque type hairpiece was deployed. One which resembles Ringo Starr and was commonly used by Chambers during that time frame. 


There are many more problems with this but this should serve as proof that after 50 plus years of experts viewing this footage all it takes is one person who understands FX technology and suit techniques to really look at it and debunk it. 

It is most assuredly a hoax and Bill Munns and Jeffrey Meldrum have both spoken to me at length about it and neither of them or anyone else has been able to refute these findings. 

So I, Jason Brazeal am in fact responsible for debunking one of the most heavily scrutinized pieces of film in history. 

It is without a doubt a hoax and you bought it hook, line and sinker. 


PS:  and like I said before. All it takes is one single sliver of a thing to prove that it's a hoax because for that one thing to exist, then it means that the entire thing is a hoax because for that one thing to exist the only way that it can exist is if it is a hoax. It is an all or nothing sort of thing. 

Oh, and for those who think they see muscle movement. Yeah, film artifacts and the deployment of the Charlie Gemora invention. 

You see Charlie developed a method in the 1940s of using what he called his invention and what it was, is water bags placed underneath the fur of the suit to simulate muscle movement. You can place those in key locations all over and create the illusion of rippling muscles. That was developed in the 1940s and is widely known within the FX community as a sort of unspoken hand-me-down. 

Toe-flexion? Don't be absurd. That is a combination of two things: the first being film artifacts which have resulted from the film being copies of copies of copies & the second being the fact that those types of footwear will in fact have toe movement when they are used in traversing over uneven terrain such as that & come into contact with rocks, pebbles & other debris. It happens all the time with those types of footwear. 

For those who disagree & choose to live in the lie that it's real....well, I don't really care what you think. You think a guy wearing shoulder pads & a suit are a real creature that doesn't exist so your argument is invalid & I don't care what someone who would make such huge errors in judgement would think anyway & there's no reason that I should. I mean honestly? You want me to take you seriously when you persist in this blatant lie? No thanks, I have better things to do. I didn't ask for your permission in debunking it & I didn't need your permission either I simply have the knowledge & expertise in exposing the fallacy & I for one am tired of hearing Bigfooters act like they know something about FX technology when they don't have a single, solitary clue as to what they're talking about. It's all right there in the film & as Jeannie stated....film doesn't lie. 

And the thing with this film in particular is that there is a fringe lunatic level of insanity surrounding it. The acolytes of Gimlin and Patterson are on a different level of crazy. They will claim that they knew it all along, that they said it before, that they already knew this or that and they will say that regardless of whether you're saying it's real or fake. They are a joke and a very toxic fringe element. But the fact to the matter is that I am the first person to really put all of this together and tell you straight out about it. I have been saying it for years and it is without a doubt a hoax. 

The most interesting aspect about this is that it works on both sides. There are lunatics who will profess to their death that it is real and will fight any idea or introduction of empirical evidence along the way to maintain their position that it's real. While at the same time there are fringe lunatics who will stand in the middle but then turn to it isn't real, maybe it is, we don't know but we think it isn't. Such as the Facebook group ran by Steven Steusefart or whatever his name is. The group is called the Coalition For Critical Thinking About Bigfoot and they post most frequently about the PG Film. They do this because it's their holy grail. But as I have shown, it is without a doubt a hoax. However they seem to think that this needs critical analysis. Not as such when I have pointed out that it is not real. 

In addition to that, this individual and a few others essentially pretended like they had already postulated all of these things which I began postulating many years ago. The fact is that they are lying. If they weren't lying then they would have laid claim to it many years ago and the film wouldn't still be heralded by everyone within that community. So they are essentially lying. But it's to be expected when you have low grade mentalities such as that who simply cannot admit when they're wrong and look for any excuse not to hear the truth. Those people are bad news and it's a toxic community of elderly adolescents with the intellectual capacities of a 13 year old So I would advise that you stay away from such inferior individuals as the Bigfoot community is toxic in general and in some avenues doubly so.
