Some sharp-eyed viewers have spotted what might be a Sasquatch in this fly fishing video taken on the McKenzie River in central Oregon in June, 2008. The dark figure, seen only briefly in the video, appears at around the 1:39 - 1:45 mark. Some researchers examining the video think the footage shows the figure standing up and beginning to walk away as the boaters approach. The video does not appear to be a hoax as the images of the dark figure are very brief and rather undefined. As Matt Moneymaker points out at BFRO, "the rowers didn't notice the movement on the river bank. Understandably, they were focused on running the rapids, and the cameraman was focused on keeping the other boat in frame." Javier Ortega at GhostTheory has done his own analysis and concludes that the dark figure is merely a tree stump or rock outcrop. I don't think there's enough clear footage to make a definitive conclusion one way or another. It does look like the figure is moving, but this could be an illusion caused by the movement of the boat. According to BFRO, Sasquatch sightings have been made and even tracks have been found in this area in the past. What do you think?

to those who say its a stump or rock really need to upgrade your monitor or video capabilities.
It clearly to me looks like another fisherman, who is crouching at first then upright 3 seconds later.
it looks much to skinny to be a sasquatch, but no mistaking it is a hominid, walking on 2 legs, if you dont see it you must be looking in wrong spot.
use your pause to freeze it, you will see ….
Have to agree with bigfoothunter. There is definitely something there and moving away from the river. When I first looked at it I wasn’t sure but when I looked at the video again I definitely saw something moving away from the shore and it wasn’t caused by the camera motion. Won’t say it is a Sasquatch but I also can’t figure out why a person would get up an try to sneak away unless they were somewhere they shouldn’t have been.
Have to agree with bigfoothunter, there is definitely something there and moving away from the river. Wasn’t sure the first time I looked at the video but after looking at it several more times something definitely gets up and moves away from the river. The movement is away from the camera so it probably isn’t caused by the movement of the camera as it tracks the boat in front.
Looked at the area using Google Earth and it is certainly heavily forested enough to be Sasquatch territory. However it is possible the image could be someone who was where they shouldn’t have been and was afraid they’d be seen.
I’d say there should be an official government body for all things paranormal or cryptic such as a Ministry Of Saskwat Affairs or something. Proper investigation needs to done instead of trying to find new life a billion miles away – start in your own backyard I say.
I agree with the other posts, it definitely looked like a person standing up and moving away from the river. I would say human though rather than Sasquatch.
All that I could see was a Dark Spot,, ! ! !
All that I saw was Some body going down the River in Fishing Boats , catching Trout , Salmon ,??
But No SASQUATCH ,,,, Maybe ,, I Didn’t know where to Look ,, ! ! !
Never once ,, did I See the ” So called ” Spot of
Big Foot ,,, Just People Yapping in a Boat ,, !!
Why isn’t the possibilty of a prehistoric apparition ever discussed with bigfoot sightings ?
This would explain no bones found and or even an aroma or stench as it were which weknow that sprits or ghosts can produce
Just cusrious
