Well….a friend of mine claims he saw Bigfoot.

I’ve known Jimmy for many years. He is an avid fisherman and outdoorsman. He’s never told me anything wild or outlandish. A totally stable guy. Until recently. Here’s basically what he told me:
He was hunting and camping with his dad on the Oklahoma/Arkansas line, up in the hills. The second night he went down to the water to get something out of his boat. He said he heard a noise to his right, and when he looked over he saw a creature about 30 yards away from him standing in about 4 ft of water, barely visible in the shadows. He said the water came up just above the creature’s knees. Obviously he was stunned and froze in place. He said it was as if time stood still. Eventually this huge figure slowly turned and made his way out of the water, walking upright. Jimmy estimated him to be nearly 7 ft tall. “Bigfoot” eased off into the woods, and that was that. They left the campsite immediately. He even left his boat. He went back later with 3 other guys and got the boat.
This guy is not a liar, however……..
Thoughts? Anyone ever seen or heard anything in the woods that didn’t make sense?

but he is mistaken about what he saw. It might have been a black bear with injured front feet.

Yeah maybe….Jimmy is a casual drinker as for as I know. Never seen him drink anything but beer. There are thousands of folks who claim to have had encounters with Bigfoot. Are they ALL lying? I dunno myself…

The math doesn't make sense. If this "creature' was standing in 4 ft. of water and the water was just above the creature's knees, then that would only leave 3 ft for the rest of the entire body if he claims it looked to be 7 ft. tall.
My math puts it closer to between 8-9 ft. tall if the proportions are similar to a humanoid.

If he didn't say anything about the creature being blurry, it wasn't Bigfoot.

I’ve thought about the math not making sense too …it was dark. The dimensions are guesstimates. Maybe Jimmy guesstimated wrong? Maybe he made it all up? I don’t know?
