Did this hiker really encounter Bigfoot?
On a hike in a forest in Oklahoma (Midwestern USA), this hiker got the fright of his life.
According to legend, Bigfoot is a bipedal, hairy creature with an ape-like face and a height of over 2 meters. Its resemblance to man, as well as its sheer size, has been a source of fascination for many years. While for some, Bigfoot is a legendary creature, for others, the beast is real. It's said to have taken up residence in Canada and the United States. Scientifically, there is, to date, no proof of Bigfoot's existence.
But...
Not according to this hiker, who swears he saw Bigfoot on a walk in an Oklahoma forest, in Lawton to be precise. To prove his encounter, the man posted a brief video (just a few seconds) on TikTok. Since its publication, the images have been viewed more than 1.2 million times, reports Demotivateur.
In the video, a creature identical to the Bigfoot description can be seen leaning against a tree. The beast suddenly turns its head towards the hiker, sending him scurrying away. Frightened, the man confessed to having experienced “the most terrifying moment of his life”.
All about the buzz?
While the video has truly created a buzz, many are convinced that it was staged. One man simply dressed up: “It's nice to see real footage of a real Bigfoot”, “Where can I buy one of those costumes?” said one Internet user.
For the hiker, still traumatized by this tête-à-tête, Bigfoot is no legend.
